DEATH OF EpHRAJM CARMACK.-On Fri.
day last, Ephraim Carmack, well known In
this and adjoining counties, died at the home
of his son, MIR. G. j. Carmack, in this place
His final illness, if 1t may be so referred to,
was brief. He was not really i'll in the sense
of suffering at any time, he simply grew
weaker, old age having conqured one of the
most robust of constitutions and during the
three or four weeks that he was unable to get
out of his bed, he sank gradually, pain.
lessIy and without murmer and when death
came, it was but the calm, smooth quieting
of all movement. The deceased was for many
years prominent figure in the business life

Febuary24, 1909 near Hawks church the son of
John and Mary Carmack. He was the Oldest
of nine children, three of whom, John Car
mack of Hagerstown, William Carmack of
Woodsboro and Hanson Carmack of Bal
timore, survive him.
He engaged for n time in merchandising
but his chief pursuit was that Of the law and

Court matters, preferred country life and
thus his real merit and ability in the law
were deprived of opportunity that, availed
Of would in the opinion of men well qualified
to judge, have given him prominent place
at the Maryland bar.
He was life long and incorporating
Democrat and in his younger days was one
of the most active in the campaign, fluent
and well equipped speaker. but during Tire
last twenty five years of his life he contented
himself with voting, taking little active in
terest beyond that.
He had an extended personal acquaintance
among the prominent men of two and three
decades ago and his "reminiscences were al
ways entertaining and instructive. being a
fluent talker, original in his views and ex-
| pressons and with a most tenacious and
exact memory, always ready and equipped
for an argument, he was able to make it
interesting for both those who agreed and
those who disagreed with him. He, beyond
question,up until within year or two, when
his sight failed him, kept himself the best
generally informed man in this locality.
On the 7th day of March, 1888 he married

tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet

less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to

the value to health of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax

dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
1t has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid

ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance.

The Place of Torment

OF bilious people is chiefly in the region Of
the liver but with the extreme discomfort
located there are associated sour stomach, ell
lowness Of the skin and eyeballs, morning
nausea. an unpleasant breath. furred tongue,
sick headache, and irTegularity of the bowels
For each and all of these unpleasantnes ses,
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is swift and
agreeable remedy. 1t is greatly preferable to
any vegetable purgatlve or drastic mineral
cathartic. Such pseudo specifics usually do
more harm than good. In malarial complaints
the liver is always involved. For such disor-
der, well for rheumatic and kidney
trouble, nervousness and debility, Hostetter 9
Stomach Bltters is a benign remedy. Physi-
clans strongly commend IL for it's promptitude
and thoroughness. and profe ssional approval
is fully justified by pubic experience during
more than third of century.

MATTER OF PENSION APPEALS.

port Made to Secretary Smith.
The work of the Board of Pension
appeals during the fiscal year ending
June so, 1893, is fully reviewed in re-
port made by the assistant secretary of
the interior, John NJ. Reynolds. to Secre-
| tary Smith. In summarizing the admin
istration of the Office, Reynolds says:
Upon taking charge of the office of as
sistant secretary in April, 1893, l found
1855 appeals pending on the docket with
the work of the board of appeals more
than two years behind. In eighteen and
onc-half months. with SSH additional ap-
peals entered during that time, current
appeals are being decided, and tardy JUS
tice no longer follows the appeal to the de-
partment by any deserving soldier. widow
or orphan. Thus 10000 cases were con-
sidered on appeal and finally ruled upon,
Il greater number of them was never be-
fore disposed of in the same length Of
time. and more than double the number
| considered in any period under my pred
ecessor." The small balance of arrears
is said to consist almost entirely of claims
undergoing further investigation in the

| final decision, await the determination Of

pensions met Saturday, and after listen

estimate. except in one item of fees for
examining surgeons The original esti-
mate was that S1.000000 would be re-
CURED to pay these fees. but Lochren
told the committee he thought 100000
would be sufficient and that figure was
decided upon. Pension appropriations as

Sugar Growers of the Country File
Suits Against the United States.

Sugar Growers of the Country File
Suits Against the United States.
The controversy between the sugar
growers of the country and the United
States Government growing out of the
repeal of the sugar bounty clause in the
Mckinley bill by the new tariff act and
the subsequent refusal of the Treasury
Department to pay bOunties upon sugar
grown in the present year, reached the
first stage III its progress TO a definite
legal settlement Saturday. ]. Fairchild
Murray, an attorney of New York. has
filed in the court of claims three suits,
identical in character. and all seeking to
recover from the Government sums of
money alleged to be legally due complain
ants as n bounty upon sugar raised by
them in the year 1891. The Chino Val
ley Beet Sugar Company Of New Jersey
Sues for SIS. 121, the Norfolk Beet Sugar
Company. Of New Jersey. for $3.093, and
the Oxford Beet Sugar Company, for
S11, 7S2. The complaints are based upon
the allegation that the United States by
an Get of Congress granting a bounty of
one-half cent per pound upon all sugar
grown in the United States and the Ter
ritories entered into legal contract with
growers. and led them by it's terms TO
undertake the cultivation of beets and
other plants from which sugar is obtain
ed. but which could not have been prOfita-
bly, pursued without the benefits of such
contract. The claim is further made
that the crops of compliments were
growing and the sugar resulting from
them in process of manufacture long be-
| fore the passage ny Congress of the mca-
sure repeating the provisions of the act
granting Il bounty. and the Government
| has no right to withhold the payment of
bounties alleged to be due. The cases
will probably be pushed to an early hear
| ing in the court of claims and will then
be taken to the United States Court for
final settlement. 1t is understood the
| suits are brought as test cases, and will
| be vigorously contested. as an amount
reaching some $11 100000 is at stake in
| the controversy.
