a Maryland Member Assaiied at the
Capitol by ~ Constituent

n Maryland memher Asaailcd at the
Capitol by ~ Constituent,
An exciting scene at the Capitol yes
terday afternoon between Congressman
Mudd of Maryland and one of his con
siituents, John McNally, formerly Of
Prince George County, is described in
the Baltimore HordM of this morning
by its Washington correspondent. 1t
is stated that about the middle of the
afternoon persons passing through the
corridors at the northwest corner of the
House observed man talking excitedly
and gcsticuating wildly.
Mr.. Mudd was standing near the door
of the Naval Committee room, and Nc.
Nally was denouncing him in uu.
measured terms. His language was
much more vigorous than polite. He
accused Mudd of deception, and made
no bones of employing profane epithets
Mr.. Mudd struck out with his right
hand in the direction of McNally, but
as they were so close together the in
tended blow was feeble. McNally made
a demonstration, saying something
about smashing" Mudd but several
of his companions who had accom-
panied him TO the Capitol interposed
They pulled McNally away and Mudd
retired in good order.
The explanation made of the row
was that McNally, who was formerly
employed in the Navy Y ard here, had
been promised reinstatement by Mudd;
that the promise had not been fulfilled,
or, as McNally concluded, Mudd was
delaying the matter from and indispo-
sition 10 fulfill his promise or inability
to do SO; that to-day McNally, with
several friends. visited the Capitol and
insisted that Mudd should accompany
him Immediately to the proper naval
authorities and urge Reinstatement that
Mudd could not leave the House inst
then, whereat McNally grew furious
and proceeded to savagely denounce the
Congressman.
There was no blood drawn, nor was
any harm done save to alarm several
old ladies and timid Congressman, who
at once feared another shooting scrape

AN .oPULENT DISTRICT.

A HERALD representative spent yes
terday at Anaheim. He found the
people there busy for the most part
shipping their walnut crop away. TAX
ing in with Anaheim, Fullerton and
Placentia, the district will ship ten car
loads this year, which at 10000 pounds
to the car will come to 10000 pounds.
At 10 cents pound, the crop will be
worth about $4,000. That is only one
of many crops that go from the old col
ony. Her orange crop is very large 60
is her wool clip, and these are supple
mented with corn, barley, cabbages,
brea and many other products
of the soil. 1t would astonish the
people of western farming section
to hear of town of 1900 to 1900 people
selling one out of eight or ten crops for
$4,000. In very few years this will
be vastly increased. For very many
new settlers are coming in there and
taking up land. South OF the town
colony has bought nearly 1000 acres
which they are subdividing and settling
on. There are at one point at this time
seven piles of lumber on the ground to
make seven houses. Thousands of walnut
trees have been sold to plant
at various points. More orange
trees are being sold. 1t does not take
so long to get crop from walnuts as
some think. The writer saw yesterday
nuts from trees seven years old from the
seed. There is quite patch of them at
Placentia, and the yield averaged $5 to
the tree, or at 20 trees to the acre 500
an acre. These trees are but half grown.
The people about Anaheim are learning
that their section is as good as the best
for oranges and walnuts, and they are
planting a great many of them. In a
short time the shipments from the old
colony will be prodigious.

THE GREATEST OF ALL.

81 would rather be right than be
president" was the sententious senti-
ment OF the brilliant mill boy of the
slashes. There are not multitudes who
could say amen to this. And yet it is
more strange that all OF us should not
say 50, than that any of us should. For
when all is said, virtue is its own reward,
and the guerdon is vastly more valuable
than any honor the world can bestow.
Not wealth, nor power, nor enjoyment,
whether animal or mental, is at all COM
parable to the serene satisfaction of a
life with no blot or stain on its record.
Such career was ittingly celebrated
yesterday at Columbus, Ohio, where
Allan G. Thurman was the recipient OF
the plaudits OF nation. In his extreme
old age, with his life behind him, his
countrymen came from all parts of the
nation to do him honor. He stands at
the close of his career, not rich man
by any means. He has made the record
OF great intellect on the history of his
country, but others of his fellow-citizens
have done as much. The world is full
of richer men. There are some as great
men mentally. Many have filled posi-
tions as high as ihe, and some higher.
But in one respect Allan G. Thurman
stands out conspicuously as not the
peer, but the high superior of all OF us,
with the very rarest exceptions. His
crowning distinction is in his unsullied
purity of character, his irnpregnable in
tegrity in all the relations of life. Wealth
pals before the light OF his glory. Sta
ton sinks to nothingness in the pres
ence OF his towering greatness. Mere
intellect becomes lusterless in the white
light of his stainless life. In an age of
low ambitions, in time when corrup-
tion runs rampant in high places, among
men who betray country and sacrifice
friends to attain selfish ends, this
mans patriotism, devotion to duty
and love. of right stand as a
sacred heritage left to us all to benefit
by. Long still may Allan G.. Thurman,
the noblest Roman of the age, live an
example of what public men should
be, and late may he return to the pure
source above whence he has drawn the
inspiration of q lie unsullied by wrong
act, for life unmarried by one false

THE commission OF engineers of the
government of the United States, which
lately visited Los Angeles, is one of more
than ordinary Importance. The move
ment which created the commission can
probably be traced TO the Nevada and
Oregon senators. Senator John P. Jones
has large interests at Santa Monica, and
he believes that an admirable harbor
can be built at that place. Senator
Stewart, his colleague, doubtless shares
this impression. The Messrs. Ainsworth
and Thompson, of Redondo Beach, are
specially influential with Senators Dolph
and Mitchell, of Oregon, and with the
Washington senators. There is every
reason to believe that with such powerful
influences behind this survey, something
very gratifying to Angelefios will result.
The ease with which serviceable harbors
could be created at number OF points
on the Los Angeles coast line has been
long understood. We ought to have at
least four or five millions of appropria-
tions as result of the visit of the COM
missioners.

MEN CAN'T UNDERSTAND.
The Slight Appreciation Which Most
Men Have for the Woes of Women

Men Have for the Woes of Women.
prominent lady of New York City, who was
entertaining some friends at her home recently,
became considerably aroused at the remarks of
n gentleman, who spoke of women as the
"weaker SEX" Strengthening herself up, she
said:
"You call us the weaker sexp Perhaps be-
cause we suffer Do you not know, sir, that
women suffer in manner that men cannot
understand? No man, unless he be a doctor,
and not always then, can fully understand q
woman's sufferings. She makes a few COM
plants. Sometimes she will admit that she has
a headache sometimes that her nerves are out
of order, and most women would rather suffer
agony in silence, than a cknowledse their suffer
ings, or make those miserable about them"
There is a world of truth in the above re-
marks and they show how essential it Il for
women in all stations of life to fortify them
selves by right living, good food, and & nile
stimulants The best physicians have declared,
and most women have lea ned, that pure
whiskey ia en- in moaeration is by far the best
manner of relieving the weaknesses and de-
pressions to which they are subject. It is this
which has made Dutfy's Pure Malt Whiskey so
wonderfully popular with both men and
women. Perfectly pure, containing properties
possessed by no other known whiske,, and pro-
no other means have ever been able to accom-
plish, 1t stands, as it deserves to stand, un.
rivalled among the common-st nse remedies of
the present day. 1t should be borne in mind,
however, that only pure whiskey should under
any circumsts noes be used and that Duffy's
Malt is acknowledged by both physicians and
chemists to be absolutely the best.

HENRY WATrERsoN, of the Louisville
Courier Journal, signalized himself in
chronicling the sweep of things in the
celebrated Democratic tidal wave year of
1874. He exclaimed in his paper,
apropos of that glorious event: "a
Democratic cyclone has swept every
"thing from Cape Cod to Kalamazoo;
from Alpha to Omaha and from hell to
breakfast" There was something neat
if not gaudy in the rhetoric OF the fore
going. There is q general feeling that
the present conjuncture admits of an
other fervent passage from the pen of
the versatile Kentuckian.
