A Bow Kills Himself.

The usually quiet neighborhood of Boothby
IIill on last Friday afternoon was startled by the
intelligence that Howard II Osborn son Of tho
late DR. VIM. IL. Osborn, and nephew of Juhn A.
was la his 18Th year, and had been staying here
since May. lie was unu ually bright and iuIelli-
gent quiet Ia his manners, manly In his hearing
ana seemingly cheerful IN his disp ,sitiun H..
had been living In baltimore and attend, school
there last winter. lie was always glad To get up
in the country with his uncle John and aunt SUI
sic. No one can assign any cause for such an act.
He was very industrious boy, and when his I'M
Gle began canning this season he was continually
about the canning Rouse, voluntarily assisting
much taken up with the business that his uncle
told him he would pay him by the hour if he
wanted 10 work. He seemed delighted with the
idea, and Immediately set to work He had saved
in which he had been performing that labor 1t
was supposed he had possibly had some trouble
at the canning house during the morning, but il
appears that nothing of the kind occurred, but he
had been us cheerful AS usual, joining in the fun
ana taking part in the singing whenever any
singing was going on. At dinner he seemed to be
In good humor. After dinner he helped the
hired man to gear up his mules, riding one of them
from the stables to the wagon, talking all the time
in his usual good humored way. In few
minutes after this he vas seen sauntering around
the yard looking up In the grape arhor. Shortly
he went into the house and got the gun. His
aunt asked him what he was going to do with il
he said his uncle wanted it to shoot some crows,
in all this time. He had loaded the gun himself,
which was u breech loader. and cooked both bar
rels He sat down about five yards before he
reached the fatal spot and took off his cap and
stocking. lie evidently pulled the trigger with
that foot. The load entered his right breast and
came out behind his left shoulder blade. The
circumstance has thrown deep gloom over the
entire neighborhood E.T.W

Who Would Dccidet
To The Editor.


l have carefully examined tho plan for a
district government suggested by Commits
sioner West in the Critic of the sixth, but do
not learn from it who would have control of
making up the estimates, which as now con-
Quoted is the matter of most interest to the
property owners
OF course l refer to the estimates for street
improvements, including pavements, sewers,
water supply, trees, lamps, &C., because that
is about the only thing in which the commits
sioners have discretionary power. The es-
Inmates for the interest on the debt and sink
ing fund is fixed by law, and the expense of
the district government, tho fire and police
departments, and schools if not positively
fixed by law, are so much matter of course
that they have practically no discretionary
power in the matter. Where tho half million
per annum for street improvements is to be
expended is the question of most Importance,
and the one over which there is most con-
test Now what want to know Is who, un-
der the proposed plan, would have the power
of deciding that? Would it be the one execu-
tive officer or, as heretofore, Lieut.. Greene,
or would it be the board composed of the five
chiefs of divisions?
That is a matter that ought to be decided
by representatives from the different sections
of the district, and for one l am opposed to
any plan or change that will not secure that
result. In fact, it is mainly to secure that
result that a change is sought. In my opn-
ion the question of suffrage in and of itself
is of far less Importance than this of having
all portions of the district fairly represented,
and especially in the matter of the improve
ments; and / see no way in which that can
be effected without suffrage, qualified or
otherwise. TAXPAYER.

What Boats Were Out Inst Night-Tho
Potomacs' Stag Party.
The stag party given by tho Potomacs yes
terday evening was the cause of slim turn
out of oarsmen on the river, although there
was an unusually large number of pleasure
boats out. OF the Potomacs Morgan and Nc
Kinney in singles, were the only representa-
tives. From the Columbias were the eight
cared shell, Brewster, Smith, johnson, and
Kirby in singles, several pairs in the pair
cared gig, with Ward, their trainer, as cox
swain, the ten-oared barge, and seventeen
pleasure boats. The Analostans were repre-
sented by their sX-oared gig and Somers and
one other in singles with an unusually large
number of pleasure boats The barge of the
Carroll Institute club was also out, and there
were fifteen pleasure boats from johnson and
Bakers.
The landing of the Carroll Institute Row
ing association presented a beautiful appear
ance last night, being lighted up with bright
colored Chinese lanterns aud other lights,
giving picturesque appearance from the
river to the large number of ladies and gen.
tlemen fitting through the dense woods.
Somers, of the Analostans, is now as much
at home in his single as he was in his work
ing boat, and is handling his sculls in fine
style, driving his shell through the water at
raplu rate, anu apparently WIN very ilItie
labor The club should persuade him to take
"a place in their four. With Bode and two
other as good men, whom they ought to be
able to select from their large membership,
they would have q four hard to beat.
The Potomacs' stag party last night, par
ticipated in by nearly all of their members,
life, honorary, inactive, and active, was the
affair Of the season. In addition to the great
number of pleasure boats loaded down with
passengers, the tug Fannie Gilbert carried up
about 200. A delightful time was had and
the fun ran high The singing was excellent
and was greatly enjoyed.

In Favor OF Suffrage.
To The Eth0r

OAKLAND, MD, July 1S.-Up here in tho
cool and shade of the mountains, away from
the flies and heat Of the 90o, | have read with
great interest the discussion had and opinions
given on the question of suffrage and | con-
fess that rs an American citizen, and especially
as one resident in the nations capitol, have
felt heartily ashamed that / should live to
see the day when we should be told that suf'
frage is failure and is not wanted.
BY whom are such sentiments uttered, and
what will the natural result thereof be?
They are uttered mainly by democrats who
are in the minority at the capital, by people
of wealth, who are daily becoming more Eu
ropeanized, to whom the equality of man is a
myth and danger. No wonder that TO these
classes the idea of suffrage is repugnant. Did
/ belong to either class, and was l less in
tensely an American, might possibly share
in their arstocratic ideas.
Grant that suffrage has its draw back:
Has its nOnuse in the district not violated the
most sacred principle of our repu blican insti
tutions2 and does its nonuse no t educate the
masses into ideas foreign to the safety and
perpetuity of the republic2 Qualified su ffrage
| is an impossibility 1t must be free and un-
restricted or not at all; for one day 1t is ed
ucation, then property, then color, then re-
| ligion, &c.--a dangerous ground to tread on.
| Rather thousand times have suffrage, and
let the people rule, than to have any Ameri-
can citizen say that his property to be secure
must not be controlled by suffrage. 1t is
only the class that know that they can by
social amenities and by virtue of their wealth
control the appointed agents Of the govern
ment that fear the voice of the people,
Whenever there is free expression of pop
ular esteem this class of men are safe in their
selfish obscurity. We have already the army
and navy exclusiveness. We want mono Of
it IN the civil service Of the government.
| The go0ner we are remanded back to thu
ideas of our fathers the better for one and all
| am for n mayor and common council, q
delegate in congress, and for representative
form of government. Yours truly,
