ing when the announcement was made of the
death of W. &. Hill While at dinner Saturday
evening Mr.. Hill began to feel very ill. He re-
tired to his bed room. and the family physician,
Dr. klocher, summoned. He responded
at once, but was unable to do anything for his
friend and patient, who died at 11:30. The
cause of his death was apoplectic stroke.

weslthiest and most popular men in Seattle.
He came to Seattle in 1888 and located VAL

The Doctor Cured Himself, but He
Didn't Mean to Do 1t.

There is Washington physician who some
years ago mado an important discovery
nothing less than cure for consumption. The
cure effected in his own case. but his
doubts as to whether the same remedy would
be equally efficacious if tried or other people
have deferred him from making the facts gen.
orally known. The doctor. as he supposed at
the time, was a victim of consumption and was
coughing up sections OF his lungs until he
thought that both lungs were nearly gone and
that the grave digger would soon Be given
employment preparing his last resting place.
Although the doctor had one foot in the grave,
as he supposed. he was not TOO far gone to fall
in love with one of the prettiest girls in the
city. Unfortunately. or fortunately it turned
out. he was Tilted by his sweetheart. All along
the dying man had been taking cod liver oil by
wholesale, but when disappointed in his love
affair he no longer desired TO live and stopped
spending his money for drugs. hoping the end
would soon come. Fat meat and corn bread
took the place of cod liver oil and whisky. with
the result that the doctor soon got strong and
healthy. Since then he has dssected the bodies
of many victims of consumption, and from
present appearances is likely to outlive many
persons who didn't have consumption and are
happier than he in their love affairs.

PRINCE GEORGES POLITICS.
The Fight Between Compton and Mudd
Already Inaugurated.

Prince Georges county politics are waking
up and the voice of the vote getter is heard
among the bills. Democratic primaries were
held Saturday evening. but the nomination of
Barnes Compton for Congress is much OF a
foregone conclusion that the battle is already
begun. Two years ago the county went sixty
odd votes democratic and will be hotly con-
tested this fall. There are no local or state
candidates to be chosen and the fight will be a
square one between democrats and republicans
on national issues and the personal qualifca-
tons OF the congressional nominees, Compton
and Afudd. Last year the county went repub-
lican by u small margin and every county office
Is filled by member of that party, which may
prove advantageous to Mr.. Mudd this fall. The
Farmers Alliance recently organized has now
a membership of over three hundred and is
rapidly growing. Its strength if used, it is
Claimed. would control the county and the con-
gresslonal district The new registration law
leaves the politicians i'll the dark till the noses
are counted. Quite a number of disappointed
office seekers, il is said will vote against Mudd
or stay ut home. Among the democrats there
Is n strong sentiment in favor OF the election OF
Compton as a vindca.ion. Both sides are pre-
pairing for some grand rallies in the county.

THE ANDREWS CASE.
The Detectives Have Found Nothing to
Substantiate the Murder Theory.


The facts connected with the disappearance
of Charles c. Andrews, the fresco painter, and
the subsequent finding of a body in the river
near Holtzman's landing, as published in The
STAR at the time, have again been brought to
public attention. the only additional fact made
public being Andrews visit to a house..of lire
pute, kept by woman named May Gray.
Detectives Horne and Mahon we're detailed a
few days ago to further inquire into the cir
cumstances attending the death of the man
whose body was identified as that of the miss
ing Andrews
The theory that the man was murdered, SO
far as the detectives investigation goes, has
little foundation.
When Andrews, who was intoxicated when
last seen, visited the disrppuable house. it is
stated he had neither watch nor funds and the
proprietress of the house refused to give him
credit. The fact that the clothes have not been
found is claimed by some as evidence of foul
play. DIR. Coyle, the Baltimore dentist who
examined the head and teeth of the drowned
man. identified the filings in the teeth as cor
responding to those that he filed fourteen
years ago. and on his evidence the Beneficial
Endowment Association and the Royal Arcanum
decided to settle the insurance on Andrews.
This case recalls one that occurred in Balti-
more fifteen years ago. in which the same
means were taken to identify corpse. and it
afterward proved a case of mistaken identity
The missing man owned factory on the York
road near what was then Waverly. The fac
tory was burned and beneath the smouldcrlng
tmbers was found a mans skeleton. 1t was
supposed to be the skeleton of the proprietor
A dentist completed the Identification and the
insurance money was paid.
1t subsequently, turned out that the proprie-
tor was in Philadelphia living on the insurance
money and he was arrested and prosecuted.
Detectives Horne and Mahon made search
of the woods near Holtzman's yesterday for
the clothes of the drowned man, but the only
thing they found were wild flowers. The river
will probably be dragged tomorrow for the
missing clothes.

Why the Lady OF the Lake Had to
Transfer Her Passengers


The steamer Lady of the Lake, while on her
regular trip from Norfolk to Washington Sat-
urday morning with I25 passengers, struck an
oyster rock while making the landing at Point
Lookout and knocked a hole in her bottom
The accident occurred at 1 :35 in the morning,
and while the shock was sufficient to awake the
passengers there was no confusion OF any sort.
Capt Barker examined the damage and de-
cided that he could make the landing at Piney
Point. When near Piney Point, however, the
water poured into tho boat to such an extent
The steamer was run into shoal water and
beached at King Coposico Point. Anumber of
the passengers chartered the tug boat Joseph
Zane and came up to the city by that means
The rest OF the passengers and the perishable
freight came up on the Sue later on. The
Lady of the Lake will be raised to day and
towed up to the city, where her hull will be
thoroughly repaired.
The statement was made ut the office of the
steamboat company Saturday in explanation OF
out OF fuel. A statement Of the accident given
to the STAR by n passenger is follows: 'ln-
stead of running out of fuel Capt. Barker un.
necessarily run out OF his course to make his
landing at Point Lookout and struck a rock
plainly marked by buoy, cutting hole in the
bottom of the boat. On landing at Point Look
out he remarked that he had struck the rock,
but instead OF making an examination he took
on a ton OF freight and nearly fifty passengers
Notwithstanding his boat was overloaded
already. and left for Piney Point. where moro
passengers and more freight was taken on
Suddenly all hands were called to the pumps
and off she started up the channel, where the
water il from forty to sixty feet deep
Midway between Piney Point and Blackiston
Island the water gained so fast that it became
necessary TO throw overheard n considerable
amount of freight and finally the captain con-
cluded to beach the boat near Nomini which
was done in about ten feet of water. There the
lite boats were lowered, the mate and a COM
panicn put ashore with instructions to reach
the nearest telephone station, telephone to
Fredericksburg and from there reach Washing
ton by telegraph. giving a statement OF facts,
instead OF which the company, through its
superintendent, Mr.. Phillips, announced that
the fuel had given out"
This all happened between 2 and S o'clock
Saturday morning. and about Q o'clock the
steam tug Jos. Zano came alongside and an
nounced that for $40 she would take twenty
passengers to Washington, and some took adj
vantage of it. The balance were compelled to
wait tho arrival of the steamer Sue which came
near noon and took us all on board Probably
there never was a more grateful shipwrecked
crew than ours, and Capt. Goehegan of the
Sue has endeared himself i'll the hearts of fully
one hundred people by his kindly attentions"

He Did Not Move On.

At Warrenton, Ga, Tom Adams (colored) was

Hotel Adams was quarreiing with another

and requested them to move on, as they were
disturbing his guests. Adams resented this

shot. Negroes threaten vengeance, but the
