Eclipse of the sun.

An eclipse of the sun will take place
on the Goth of this month. and will be
visible throughout the greater part OF
North America. All the United States
may see it except the western part of
Oregon and California The eclipse will
only be partial, however. A little over
a third of the suns disk will be covered
by the intervening body of the moon
when the obstruction is at its greatest.
but this is sufficient TO noticeably dimin-
ish the splendor of the solar's rays. In
this locality the eclipse will begin two
minutes before II a. m, and end at less
than a minute before 3 p. NJ. This will
be the third eclipse of the year. A total
eclipse of the sun, which was not visible
in the United States, occurred on April
90. About six weeks later, or on May
IL, partial eclipse OF the moon took
place, which was seen along part of the
Atlantic seaboard. On November there
will be total eclipse of the moon. but ii
will not be visible in this country.

He Passes Quietly Away. Surround
ed by His Family.
THE END or 4 USEFUL LIFE.

THE ENIs OF \ USEFUL LIFE.
Judge Oliver Miller died at his home,
in Ellieotl City. at o'clock last even
ing, surrounded By all the immediate
members OF his family and the servants
of his household Since Sunday morn
ing he never regained consciousness
Prior to that, while at times in lathar-
gic or semi-lethargic condition, he would
occasionally rally and talk with those
about him He knew, in his conscious
intervals, that he was on his deathbed
but was entirely composed and resigned.
Almost his last words were directions as
TO his funeral. Those of the family about
his bedside when the end came were his
nephews, Rev John IT, Converse, of
Riyerton. n j.. J. Holmes Converse. of
Baltimore; Mrs Emily Converse, his on
ly living sister; Mrs. John II. Converse
and Miss Emily Converse. Funeral ar
engagements have not yet been made. but
ii is understood that the dead jurist's re
mains will be inferred in Loudon Park
Cemetery, near Baltimore, where his
| wife, who died within the past four
years, was buried.
SKETCH OF HIS LIFE.
Judge Miller was born In Middletown,
| Conn. April 10Th, 1924. He went to
| Frederick city to live with his sister,
| Mrs. Converse. whose husband was prin-
| cipal of the academy in that town In
| 1S4S he graduated with high honors at
Dartsmouth College That year he came
to Annapolis, studied law with Hon. AL

Cemetery superintendent Are Let

In his address before the American
Cemetery Superintendents' Association,
in opening its sixth annual convention
in Baltimore recently. President j G
Parker. of Boston. strongly advocated
the abolition of Sunday funerals. Con
siderable attention he said, has been
given TO this matter by the funeral di-
rectors and there is decided feeling on
the part of those whose services are de-
manded on funeral occasions that the
time has come when united action on the
part of the funeral director and the sup
erintendent should be express d. /
know there are cases that demand im
mediate attention and interment Is re-
quired at once. / also know that the
large majority OF them could have taken
place Saturday or Monday. A reform
of this nature cannot be effected by fun
eral directors or superintendent alone.
1t must be by united action and, it seems
to me, this is our chance TO speak.
There would be no trouble in making
satisfactory arrangements with the fun.

The entertainment last night by Mr..
Gilbert Walden, the Southern Elocution-
list at the First NJ +. Church was unique
and interesting He entertained his aud
fence for two hours and his recitals
were received with keen pleasure and
responsive sympathy. The humorous,
pathetic and tragic he touched upon
without effort and the ease and rapiditY
of transition was remarkable. His rem
ditions in negro dialect are excellent and
In every instance were greeted with

ment given by Mr. Walden was in every
way a success and We hope to greet him

Imitators and Impostors.

The unequalled success of Allcock's
Porous Plasters as an external remedy
has induced INSCRIPTIONS parties TO of
fer limitations, which they endeavor to
sell on the reputation of Allcock's. 1t
is an absurdity to speak of them in the
same category as the genuine porous
plasters. Their pretensions are unfoun-
ded, their vaunied merits unsupported
by facts, their alleged superiority to or
equality with Allcock's false pretense.
The ablest medical practitioners and
chemists and thousands OF grateful pa
tients unite in declaring Allcock's Por-
Gus Plasters the best external remedy
ever produced.
Beware of limitations, and do not be
deceived by misrepresentation Ask
for Allcock's, and let no solicitation or
explanation induce you to accept sub

Prof. w. H. siebert, of the Depart
ment of History of the Ohio State Uni
yersity, is in this region looking up
data for ahistory OF the underground
railway, over which slaves were landed
in Canada in antebellum times. Prof.
Siebert has already been over large
portion Of the State, and after inter-
viewing various old citizens of Steben-
Vile, went to Mt. Pleasant, where, per-
haps, he can get more data than at any
other point. In his rambles Prof. Sic.
bert has discovered the truth Of a
claim advanced some time ago, that the
anti-slavery movement began In
the South and not in New Eng.
land, and that many OF
the strongest anti-slavery advo-
Gates during the early days were per.
sons who left the south because OF
slavery. There was strong anti.slavery
movement in the south when slavery
was profitable institutionin New Eng
land. Thomas Jefferson, q slave holder
himself, attempted to have emancipa-
ton migrated in the declaration OF in
dependence, aud this item appears in
cred bythe other members Of the con
vention. Benjamin Lundy published
his anti-slayery paper in the south be-
fore he made his appearance in this re-
eion, and to him belongs the conversion
Of William Lloyd Garrison. who got the
credit for the work, and through him
New England was made most prominent
in the movement. Long after Lundy
