Suffolk, Va., Dec. 20.?Abandoned by
her lover and shorn of money and
jewels. Miss Annie Brown, an unsophis?
ticated North Carolina maiden, got oft
at Suffolk this afternoon without
friends, cash or resources. She was
hopeless and forlorn. This was to have
been her wedding day. It proved a
day of financial loss and deep mental
humiliation.
The man in the case was Frank
Flynn. Annie Brown met Flynn a year
ago at Bowden, N. C. He operated a
lumber plant near there. The acquaint?
ance ripened into a passion more len?
der in its fiber. Time wore on. Mar?
riage was thought of.? Annie says they
didn't wed at Bowden because 'there
was parental objection.
THE LOVERS FLY.
They decided to elope. Two tickets
were procured to-day from Bowden, N.
C, to Suffolk, Va. The ante-nuptial
journey was begun auspiciously. One
traveler was radiant in anticipation of
nuptial joys and the other was schem?
ing how to get out of the contract with
safety and profit to himself.
Flynn feared for the security of
Annie's pocketbook, and she was in?
duced to let him care for it. It held
S25. Annie also Intrusted her supposed
lover with her watch and a ring.
CHANGED CARS.
Flynn's plan was working well. He
learned from a newsboy that train No.
?18, on which he rode, met No. 103 at
Tunis, and decided to act with expe?
dition. He escaped his lady love and
boarded southbound train No. 103.
The sweethearts were soon being hur?
ried apart at the rate of GO miles an
hour. When Annie realized what had
happened she was well night pros?
trated with mortification and chargln.
She wanted to have Flynn arrested,
but was advised that Flynn's posses?
sion of her valuables was only a breach
of trust.
Annie was in a passion. She told her
troubles to Captain Clark of No. 4S.
He telegraphed Captain Hart, of No.
103. Captain Hart saw Flynn, who re?
ported that he was O. K.. and asked
thnit Mrs. Flynn be wired that he was
going by Rocky Mount. When her at?
tention was called to the title. Miss
Brown said they had not yet been mar- '
rled.
PENNILESS AND FRIENDLESS.
When Miss Brown was deposited In
Suffolk she was in a sorry plight. She
had no money and there was no friend
to whom she could appeal. The posi?
tion of a young -woman In that fix and
150 miles from home Is not enviable.
There were tenrs In her eyes as she
told of her desertion.
Kind-hearted Norfolk and Carolina
officers pledged themselves for Miss
Brown's board ait a Washington Square
dace.
ESTATE AWAITING CLAIMANTS.
There's money in Kentucky awaiting
somebody in Virginia. The only con?
dition is the establishment of kinship to
Benjamin Franklin, lately deceased in
Mt. Sterling, Ky., aged 75 years.
Colonel L. P. Harper, postmaster, to?
day had a letter from Lawyer R. A.
Mitchell, of Mt. Sterling, saying he was
hunting for Franklin'? heirs. He 1?
supposed to have relatives in this sec?
tion. The nttorney writes that Frank?
lin's mother was named Lahoon, La
boon or Cahoon.
SOME CAHOONS.
The only family in Suffolk whoso
name is like either Is Mr. William John
Cohoon. He knows nothing about the
dead Franklin.
There was a family of Cahoons at
Crittenden. In Portsmouth there are
In the directory Oscar and Robert B.
Cahoon, and in Berkley Ira and Iredell
Cahoon. In the Norfolk directory ap?
pears the name R. S. Cahoon. It should
be R. S. Cohonn. His father is W. J.
Cohoon, of Suffolk.
MARRIAGES.
James A. Tyler to Miss Rosa M.
Thompson,daughter of William Thomp?
son. They were married In Suffolk to?
day.
Julius P. Lawrence to Katherlne
Godwin, colored.
Charles Gotten to Rosa B. Smith, col?
ored.
ASSESSORS NAMED.
County Judge W. J. Kilby to-day ap?
pointed land assessors. They have to
be named every five years. They are:
John B. Pinner, Suffolk; Frank E. Stal
llngs, S'eepy Hole and Chuckatuck dis?
tricts; M. F. Lloyd, Cypress and Sleepy
Hole districts.
The real estate in town nnd country
must be assessed by June 1, 1000. though
the court may extend the time if neces?
sary. The assessors get 52 a day for
the time actually done.
ENGINEER RAWLES DEAD.
The remains of Willie Rawlcs, a
former resident of SulTolk, arrived here
this morning from Lawrencevllle, Va.
The interment was in Cedar Hill. Rev.
William T. Green, pastor of the Main
Street Methodist Church, read the
burial service at the grave.
The deceased came to his end through
consumption. Ills mother Is Mrs. An?
drew Messer, of Suffolk. Mr. Rnwles

terwards went South as engineer. He

NEWPORT NEWS.
FOR COMMONWEALTH'S ATTOR?
NEY?PEOPLE AMUSED?THE
MAINE'S DEAD.
(Special to Virginian-Pilot)
Newport News. Va., Doc. 20.?The
City Fathers are in a quandary over
the filling of the vacancy caused by
the deo.th of Commonwealth's Attorney
J. K. M. Newton, who was ex-olllcio
City Attorney.
Before the Legislnture adjourns It
will be asked to separate the two ollices
so as to give the city a City Attorney
.and a Commonwealth's Attorney. In
the meantime the two offices are com?
bined.
The question has now arisen ns to
how Mr. Newton's successor shall be
ar.pointed. Up until a few days ago
Judge Barham. of the Corporation
Court, was under the Impression that
the filling of the vacancy was his own
peculiar prerogative, but since that
time his attention has been called to
the langunge of the charter, which
says that vacancies In the case of cor?
porate officers shall be filled by the
Council. The language of the charter,
as well as the language of the 1S97-'OS
amendment to the Code, admits clearly
the theory that the Council has a right
to fill vacancies In the case of cer.ain
State officers, such ns the Treasurer,
Commonwealth's Attorney, Commis?
sioner of Revenue and others.
Judge Barham now Inclines to the
opinion that it Is the duty of the Coun?
cil to act, but he is not certain. The
members of the bar here are divided on
the point, and it is probable that the
matter will yet be referred to the At?
torney General before any action Is ta?
ken by the Council.
THE CANDIDATES.
In the meantime there are two can?
didates announced for the appointment,
one of them being J. A. Massle, the
present city clerk: the oilier. C. W.
Robinson, late candidate for the nomi?
nation to the State Senatorshlp from
this district.
Mr. Massle has sufficient votes pledg?
ed to him to Insure his election. In
this latter event, he will vacate his
present office, for which two cand dates
have announced themselves, one of
them being Will Cooke, who was ste?
nographer for Mr. Newton; the other,
George Henefcr, secretary of the
Americus Democratic Club, and of the
City Democratic Executive Committee.
The fight Is likely to be a lively one
when It does come off.
THE PEOPLE AMUSED.
The people are somewhat amused
over the fight that Is being made to get
a franchise from the city for the New?
port News Conduit Company. The
Payne interests here are opposing the
franchise, and so will the other com
panles_having wires, moat probably,
when "they get a chance to be heard.
The new company is evidently count?
ing on the passage of the Folkes bill,
putting vail wires underground.
THE MAINE'S DEAD.
From the best information obtainable
here the battleship Texas, with the
Maine's dead, will arrive here Christ?
mas morning. The bodies will be trans?
ferred at once to a special train and
hurried over the Chesapeake and Ohio
to Washington.
