PREFERRED DEATH TO LIFE,
When Life Was Attended With Suffering
and Incurable Disease.

Rather than live afflicted with disease which
be knew was incurable and entailed long suffer-
ing, DR.. Isaac c. Terry, well-known physician
of Philadelphia, blew his brains out yesterday
morning. DIR. Terry was ffty-six years old,
and resided alone with his aged oolorsd servant.
The servant went up to the second-story front
room occupied by the physician Yesterday
morning to notify him that his breakfast was
ready. No sooner had he left the room and
reached the bottom of the stairs than he heard
q pistol shot, and. running back. found the
physician lying on the bed with blood oosing
from his mouth. DIR. Terry had taken Q re-
volver, which he kept in his ROOM and placing
the barrel in his mouth pulled the trigger.
Death was almost instantaneous,

Some Washington Professionals.

Miss Annie Lewis has made decided hit in
her new play, "A Nutmeg Match that was
written for her by VIM. Haworth, and which
was produced at Mr.. Jacob Lifts theatsr In
Minneapolis last week. The papers Of that city
speak in warm terms Of her performance, the
Ne,es saying that ''she individualized the part
and made of il a creation OF considerable merit
The change from maiden to wife Was admirably
portrayed, and il was such wife as only an
American girl can make, loyal and true, but
not slavishly obedient nor weakly worshiping"
Miss Fielding Roselle, Washington girl, -
meeting with great success o contralto solo
ist. having sung during the past winter In Pc
tersburg and Richmond, and, SAYS the Musical
Courier. she twas heard to great advantage In
an incidental solo at the last Rubinstein's con-
cert" Miss Roselle is the solo contralto Of ST.
James Methodist Church. Harlem. Her friends
here are naturally gratifed at her musical ad-
vancement.
Mr.. Chas. 3 Hanford is making great prep
arations for his starring tour next season. He
says he will place Julius Cesar" upon the
stage IN more attractive manner than it has
ever been seen. He himself will play Marc
antony, He will begin his work a. a star in
this city, where his ability was first recognized
and where he made his first effort a. an
amateur with the old Lawrence BARRETT
Dramatic Association, playing Cassius In
Julius Caesar" to the Brutus Of Mr.. Clarence
'B Rheem.
The Philadelphia papers have been praising the
performance of Mascagnis opera, "L'Amico
Fritz, that was presented in that city last
week, but Washington had the first opportunity
OF any CITY in this country of hearing the music
of this latest work of the composer Of the
''Cavalleria Rustioana." 1t was given a. q re-
cital by the pupils of Sig. Mariana Mama at the
Cniyersalist Church a month ago, and though
1t had not the advantage of scenery and costume
the music was, both solos and choruses, ex-
cellently sung

The three foreigners who were arrested or
Sunday for hooting at President oarnot and
calling him wooden head as he wa,
leaving Longchsmps, where he had witnessed
the race for the grand prix dc Paris, wess
released by police yesterday. Their arres, wa,
more matter of precaution than enythins
else, for the crowd who heard he
insults offered the president were deeply in
censed, and thore Is no doubt the men would
have been very severely handled had not tie
police interyened and taken them into custofiv.
No political importance attaches to the incident

The Whisky Trust Cases.

The bare fact that decision has been rem
dered by the circuit court judge in Ohio to the
effect that the whisky trust defendants could
refuse to appear in Massachusetts, is not definite
enough to enable District Attorney Allen Of
Boston to express opinion upon its sig
nifcance. He says: 81 propose pushing the
cases to a conclusion, but Just what form the
matter will take will depend entirely upon the
opinion Of the federal court in Ohio. The in
formation I received that decision had been
rendered was obtained from the newspapers,
which, however, did not furnish the grounds
for the opinion. For that reason 1 cannot tell
what action will be taken. However, nothing
will be done till receive the opinion Of the
Ohio court or am instructed by the attorney
general" - Icy

ALL READY FOR THE ROBBERS.
A Sheriff and Posse Concealed q Train
Carrying Nearly 100000.

A oherfn ana Posse Concealed on . Train
Carrying Nearly SsOO.O00.
An attempt was made Monday night to hold
up the New York and Philadelphia express on
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad between LAYTON
station and Connellsville. Pa The train left Pitts
burg at 900 pm. The plans of the train rob-
beers were to flag or wreck the train, then board
IL and rob the mail and express cars. The train
carried sls6,0O0
The railroad officials in some way got word
that the attempted robbery was to be made. A
telegram was sent to Robert Shepard, the Balti-
more and Ohio railroad detective at Conpells-
vile. He went to Uniontown, and from there
a special train took Shepard, Sheriff Mccormick
and o posse to Layton station There they
boarded the express and rode through TO Cum
berland. Had not the robbers gained informa-
ton that the officials were on the lookout. it is
likely that big haul would have been made.
The railroad people admit that they expected
the robbery, but refuse any information.
