Death Of a Worthy Citizen.

Died, in Washington city, on the 9th day
of April, 1890, Jasper Mandt Jackson, aged
70 years.
In the death OF the above.name devot'
ed family and a large circle of warm nSso-
ciates have suffered loss rs severe rs il is
irreparable.
The utter unseltlshness Of Jasper Mandit
Jackson's nature, his unwearying solictnde
for the welfare of Others, were never more
strongly emphasized than in the manner of
his death Indifferent to the danger he him
selfincurred, he heroically performed deed
looking To the safety of others, and in SO do
ing sacrificed his own life. Through all the
pain attendant upon those re suits that end
ed his life he bore himself with patience
and with lortitude, and OK pressed full sat
isiaction for the exemption of others from
disaster at his own expense.
To the sorrowing family, upon whom this
sudden atfliction has SO heavily fallen, there
are no words fitted to afford relief and re-
Cancellation; but If the memory of the dc.
parted ones worth can assist the healing
of painful wound. Then the process
needs have already begun, for few who knew
the value Of the departed, but utter with all
the force OF truthful feeling the words:
"Nonu knew him but to love him,
None named him but TO praise"

Consumption Durable.

Since the fact that consumption is both pre-
ventable and in its earliest stage durable, it
has lest much of its terror. If the first symp-
toms are at once recognized. and the proper
remedy applied, vary few, if any one, need
die of consumption, which is really lung
scrofula. Like many other diseases this form
liable one grows out of impure blood, aud
this, in turn, from diseased liver. Hence,
we have the hacking congh, the pains 10
chest, The inAamed lungs, and all the symp-
toms OF Fastening consumption. all The result
of depraved flood and diseased liver. The
use of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry will arrest all such symptoms, restore the
liver 10: healthy action, and send streams of
pure blood into every orgsn. -! druggists.

Rockville MISUNDERSTANDING after.

Rockville he1ghts.-TueSday alter
noon last the syndicate composed of Messrs
John A. Prescott, IS. Chapman, Frederick
w. Pratt and DIR. Norton, accompanied by
architect G. Graham, all Of Washington, and
a number of invited guests from Rockville,
devoted several hours to the inspection of
its property named Rockville Heights"
south of and adjoining Rockville, formerly
known as the farm of Mr. Rob't w. Carter.
for the purpose of dividing the property off
into five locations as to comparative value,
that lots therein might be priced accord
ingly The entire party was forcibly struck
with the grandeur of the entire tract of land,
which has not a waste spot on it and affords
a beautiful scene for miles around-amongst
the objects to be seen at distance is the
Washington Monument, which is plainly
observable.
During the favorable weather of last win
ter the opening of the streets and avenues
over the hills and through woods was begun.
Constantly during the period which this
work occupied large number of men and
horses were kept in employment at heavy
cost Of money. and only finished few days
ago in splendid style. Following are the
names of the streets, avenues and circles rs
laid out throughout Rockville Heights:
Washington, Argyle, Adams, Monument
and Monroe streets; Maryland, Cleveland,
Grant, Iowa, New York and Harrison ave-
nues Lake Shore Drive, Edgewood Road,
and Southwick, Waddington and Round
Top circles. The streets and avenues are
laid off 60 feet wide, incudinga sidewalk on
either side 10 feet wide
The syndicate intend to erect at once two
large and handsome dwellings upon the
tract, and expect to see eight or more costly
houses built by purchasers of lots in the
course of the present season. The lots will
be placed on the market next Tuesday.
Purchasers will be notified of the fact Sun
day next through the Washington papers
by modest advertisement, and, as the pro.
prietors OF the Heights expressed it, not in
sensational way.

A Sad AccideDt.-rhe many friends OF
Mrs. VIM. j, Thomson wife of Paymaster
Thomson, of the u, 5. Navy, will be grieved
to learn of the painful accident she met with
ON Monday evening last by being thrown
from her carriage, drawn bya pair Of horses.
AS was her custom, that evening she was
going to Garrett Park station to meet her
husband at the train from Washington and
one Of the lines giving away the horses ran
up a bank, throwing her out Of the carriage
in her effort, prompted by her usually good
workmanship, To grasp that part Of the
broken line on the horse and the carriage
passed over her ankle, crushing the bone.
After arriving at the station and not finding
his wife there, Mr.. Thomson started on his
way home. Proceeding along, not far from
the spot where the accident occurred, he
heard moaning, which caused a Fastening
of his steps, and, To his utter surprise, be
found his wife lying in an unconscious
condition in the public road. Mrs. Thorn
som was removed to her home and Drs.
Lewis, of Knowles Station, Anderson, OF
Rockville, and Ford Thompson, of Wash
ington, were called in to see her. The lat.
ter physician is of the opinion at present
that the limb will have to be amputated
We regret TO say that Mrs. Thomson still
continues to suffer, having improved but
very little.
The horses ran into woods short dis
lance and stopped, where they were caught
without injury 10 themselves.
