Ex-Governor Oden Bowie died at half-past
2 o'clock Tuesday morning at his home in
Bowie, Md.
He had Il stroke OF paralysis Monday night.
which was the immediate cause of dissolution.
Ex-Governor Oden Bowie was born in
Prince Georges county, Maryland, Novem-
ber 10, 1926. While he was engaged in farm
ing the Mexican War broke out, and he be-
came a Captain in one OF the regiments raised
for that service. General Joseph E. johnson
was the Lieutenant Colonel of this regiment.
Captain Bowie did not serve during the
whole the war, being obliged to resign be-
cause of poor health. He was a delegate to
the Chicago National Democratic Convention
which nominated Mcclellan for the Presi-
dency in 1854 and was appointed the member
of the National Democratic Committee from
Maryland. Through his influence the Demo-
cratic Convention of 1868 was held in Balti-
more. In 1867 he was elected to the State
Senate. where he became chairman of the
Committees on Federal Relations and Eyecu-
tive Nominations member of the Committee
on Internal improvements and other
Standing Committees. 1t was at this session
that an effort was made to annual the charter
of the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad but
it was saved by the energy and ability of Mr.
Bowie. He was elected Governor by a ma
jority of Al 900 votes. He had been Presi-
dent of the Baltimore and Potomac Railroad
Company and the Baltimore City Passenger
Railroad Company.
He was the prime mover in the organza-
ton of the Maryland Jockey Club and its
President for nineteen years. In 1854 Mr..
Bowie married Alice Carter, daughter of
Charles II. Carter Ga descendant of King
Carter of Virginia.. Mr. Bowie Joined the

Delaware and Chesapeake Canal.

The last session of the Delaware
and Chesapeake Canal commission will
be held in Washington. to-day. Saturday.
when the report will he signed by the
members and submitted to the Secretary of
War for transmission to Congress. The work
Of the board has been unusually rapid, con-
siderng the extent of the projects considered
and the vast number of maps and drawings
examined. The session Thursday was the third
and to-day will conclude the meetings
Thursdays meeting was devoted entirely to Il
general review of the entire question and
consideration rs to which OF the seven routes
surveyed by Colonel Craighill is the best
1t is understood that the shorter route and
the cheaper will not be approved, owing
chiefly to the expense of maintaining proper
approaches and the danger arising from ice
fields coming down the Susquehanna.
The Choptank routes, it is said. have been
received with the most favor. and it is thought
probable that one of them or the lower route
will be selected finally. On Saturday the
report, which is now being drawn up. will he
again considered. and unless some uneXpect-
ed obstacle is encountered in the proceedings
the commission will then adjourn. 1t is
stated that the route recommended will not
be announced until the report reaches Con-

The Confessed Murderer of Maggie Pitts
Arrested in Columbia, Pa.

Horace Cooper. the colored murderer of
Maggie Pitts, at Cokesbury, near Port De-
post, was captured in Columbia, Pa, on Fri
day night and on Saturday morning was
brought to Elkton and safely lodged in jail
He confessed the shooting and said he
committed the act from jealousIy, as the
woman refused to marry him.
The capture was effected through Coopers
writing from Columbia to Lemuel Jones,
colored, of Cokesbury, under the assumed
name of Charles Henry Clark. Jones at
once recognized the handwriting and so noti-
fled Sheriff White. Deputy Sheriff Harvey
Mackey, who had been detailed on the case
since the murder, accompanied by States
Attorney A. l.. Crothers went to Columbia on
Friday afternoon, and placed the matter in
the hands of the Chief of Police of that city.
The officers went TO the house, the address
being given by Cooper in his letter to Jones.
and arrested the accused that evening.
Cooper offered no resistance and upon being
willing to return to Maryland without
rcquisition was turned over TO Deputy
Mackey. He stated that he had hourly ex-
pectcd his arrest and had made straight for
Columbia after the shooting, He did not
know of the woman's death until apprised OF
the fact by Deputy Markey, and showed con-
siderable concern.
The prisoner waived hearing before Jus
tice of the Peace p II. Cieaver on Monday
and was held Tor court. the December term OF
which convenes on Monday Cooper has
retained Il. c. Thack"ry, Esq, as his counsel.
