Police Officer Thomas McDonough,
of the Southern District, died yester-
day of congestion Of the brain, grow
ing out of the extreme heat. He had
been on the force just a month. He
came from Homecoming, Allegany
county, and managed to get an APP
pointment as policeman through the
influence Of friends. He was assigned
to night duty, and not only found
the heat very oppressive, but also
complained that he could not sleep
during the day, as he had been accus-
toned to rising early in the country;
and, besides, the noise of the vehicles
rumbling in the streets and the
hawking of the vegetable sellers was
very NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Ameri-

The Baltimore Gazette of the 18th
says that the escort of policemen to
bury their comrade, the late Mr..
Charles McDonough, at Homecoming,
has returned, and adds:

Homecoming on the Cumberland and
Pennsylvania railroad, Saturday

clergyman was in attendance, and
the body was inferred without formal
religious service. The wife and three
sons of McDOnough were present,
and the former, just before the body
was consigned to the ground, made a
short and affecting prayer over the
body of her dead huSL and"

The Weather Once More.

1t was the universal verdict that
the weather yesterday was the hottest
we have experienced this summer,
at least the heat was the most OPP
pressive. The rays of the sun as they
beat down upon sweltering humanity
seemed to have positive weight.
Every individual who owned a Their
mometer We'd with his neighbOr to
raise the mercury to the highest
possible pitch. The consequence was
that $50, go and go were quoted as
the prevailing temperature III the
shade. We are sure however, that
by a faithful thermometer in fair
place, where no reflected heat could
reach it, the average temperature was
only 920-but that was hot enough.
SO far as we could learn there were
no cases of sunstroke. AT O'Clock
this morning the mercury stands at

Frustrated by the Heat,

Mr.. John w. Smith, carpenter,
about 80 years old. living in Oakland,
was ove-come by the heat on We'd
neSday afternoon, while assisting
Mr.. Peter Martin in the removal of
a portable engine from his saw mill,

was principally heavy lifting. About
four o'clock, when the men were
putting the engine in position at the
grist mill, Mr.. Smith complained
that he was not feeling well, and was
persuaded to desist from work and
sit down. In few minutes he fell,
apparently lifeless, and was carried

rallied in short time, and was able
to converse with his attendants. At
ter shutdown he was conveyed to his
home, where he is now doing well.
At the time of his prostration the

Yesterday, DR. w. F. Fundenberg,
the well known oculist and aurist, of
this city, assisted by Drs. G. b. Fun
denberg and Parsons, performed a
very delicate operation upon Mr..
VIM. Mullen, aye 60, who has been a
resident of this city for many years.
About year ago Mr.. NJ. noticed a
small sore upon his cheek near the
lower eye-lid, which gradually in
creased in size in spite of all treat
ment. Upon examination, it was
found to be cancer, and was rapidly
encroaching upon the eyelid and
nose. An operation was called for
at once, otherwise death would surely
en5ue. The patient was etherized
and piece of flesh three inches long
by one inch in width, together with
the tumor. was removed, and another
piece exactly the same length,
breadth aud shape was taken from
the temple and cheek and nicely
fitted in the wound. In order to do
thisJorty stitches were necessary, the
wound in the temple being brought
together by additional stitches.
There will be but slight disfgure-
ment by this novel operation. The
doctor has every reason to believe that
there can be no return of this truly
terrible disease, after having been so
very thoroughly removed. Ctmo6er-
