Sad and Distressing Death.

The illness OF Prof. j. B. Starr which
began little more than four weeks ago,
terminated, this morning at IL O'Clock in
his death The circumstances attending
this case render ii one of the most dis
iressing that have ever been in our midst
and have called forth the sympathies Of
our whole community.
Although Mr.. Starr has been with US
but short time he has made many warm
friends and his untimely death will be
keenly felt by all. He came to Annapolis
eight years ago to prepare for the Naval
Academy examination; during his stay,
his sense of manliness was recognized by
all with whom he had intercourse and HIS
acquaintanceship of that time ripened in
to warm and firm friendships in after
years. He entered the Naval Academy
in September, 1880, as a Cadet Engineer
and graduated four years later
His course there was full of credit, and
it was marked by devotion to duty and
by strict integrity.
His sense of henor and manly qualifi-
cations brought TO him the respect ard
esteem of his entire class.
After graduating. he performed sea
service on the South Pacific station, and
after passing creditable examia alton
upon his return, he resigned the nlval
service to enter civil life. He enlisted
In the work of education as Professor at
the Maryland Agricultural College and
while there, he married, on the twenty
fifth of last January, Miss Katie G. Nun.
roe, daughter of Mr.. Grafton Munroe, of
Annapolis. 1t seems as il some hidden
power bad designed the day of his death
to fall upon the date Of bis marriage and
to be just nine months after. 1t is sup
posed that his illness originated from the
germs of fever set loose by digging
drain al the house formerly occupied by
MIR. Munroe. and ont Of which nearly all
the household goods had been taken pre-
paratory to occupying another houses
To add to this distress Mrs. Starr was
seized with the same illness from which
she has just begun to convalesce. Mr..
Starr was formerly from Pennsylvania
but has made his home ia Kansas of late
years, where his parents now reside. He
leaves behind him young wife and in
FAINT daughter to mourn his loss while he
will hold place in the kear Of his en-
dcared friends as memory lasts. Man
kind has been robbed OF life full cf up
rightness and truth, and society in gen.
eral has lost member whose years would
have been ripe with good and usefulness
to others Truly the ways OF Providence
are unfathomable for this young man, at
the age of twenty seven years, was cut
off by death when he Ind so much to live
for and just as his career of usefulness
was opening before him. The funeral
services will be held at the LIST M. E.
Church on Saturday afternoon at three

Live Pigeon Shooting.

The live pigeon shooting match which
takes place to-day at Acton's Park, near
Brooklyn. Anne Arundel county, between
l.. s. Carter, of Hammond, H., the cham
pion wing shot of America and William

One hundred specially selected live
pigeons for $500 is the stake between the

The Electric Light Elsewhere.

Our sister cities OF Westera Maryland
Frederick and Hagerstown-are having
trouble with their electric lights. Every
now and then the machinery don't work,
or something is wrong with the dynamo,
and the city is left in darkness. The
Frederick Times of Tuesday says: "A
general howl of complaint went up from
the throats Of the citizens of Frederick
last night at the absence of the electric
light. Owing to the cloudy and rainy
weather the early part Of the evening was
so dark that Professionalism in the alb
sence Of street lights OF any kind was
matter of great difficulty. The friends Of
the gas company brought forth the propo-
sition that if said organization had been
responsible for the non presence OF street
lights the people would have risen in
their wrath and waxed warm, but. they
argued, as the corporation now has the
matter in hand nothing is said. Since
this plan went into effect. the mayor
has been running tho lights on the old
"moon" schedule and yesterday afternoon
at o'clock, observing that the weather
was clear and likely 10 remain so, he told
the engineer, firemen. etc lwho were on
hand and ready for duty, that he did not
think it would be necessary TO light the
lamps. The men left and when the clouds
and rain came up 1t was too late to call
the men together again and get up steam"

What is this nervous trouble with
which so many seem now to be afflicted
If you will remember few years ago the
word Malaria was comparatively unknown
to-day it is as common as any word In
the English language. yet this word
covers only the meaning of another word
used by our forefathers In times past
So it is with nervous diseases, as they and
Malaria are intended to cover what our
grandfathers called Biliousness, and all
are caused by troubles that arise from a
diseased condition of the Liver which in
performing its functions finding it cannot
dispose of the bile through the ordinary
channel is compelled to pass it off through
the system, causing nervous troubles,
Malaria Bilious Fever, etc. You who are
