DIED..

In the End district Mrs. CARRIE ELI.
ZABETH PRICE, beloved wife OF James
V. Price, departed this life Aug 8, 1895, in
22nd year Of her age.
Truly death loves a shining mark"
and into this happy home he entered with
unexpected, silent tread, and notwithstand-
ing the great efforts made by physicians
and friends to save their loved one from the
destroyer's grasp, he laid his whitening,
blightiIg hand upon the joyous form, and
it grew still and lifeless, the bright eyes
closed to the agonized gaze of friends, and
the loving voice grew silent. She was q
true member ofthe Roman Catholic Church
and th5re must be much comfort to know
she died fully prepared to meet her God.
Sleep, dearest Carrie, sleep,
Cold is thy pure white brow,
And on thy pale face smile Of peace
Is lingering now.
Idly thy hands are laid
On worn, q weary brest,
Ann never again will thy still heart throb
In struggles of unrest. NJ. Z. B.
At the residence of his uncle in the sixth
district, FRANKLIN, eldes: son of Edward
and Susan X. Drury, aged 10 years and IS
days.
Dear franklin. how can give you up,
You whom loved 80 well;
How can drink the bitter cup,
And say the word-farewells
God loved him, too, and He thought best
To take our franklin home to rest.
By HIS MoTaER.
Departed this life on the morning of the
18th instant, at the residence of her sister,
mrs. Mary NJ Lynch, Mrs. EMMA ].
RITTER, in the 47th year of her age

claim the protection of the English
flag, though their own may be fiy-
ing over O consulate in sight, and
the speedy execution Of the laws in
England and her dependencies in
contrast with the laws slow delays
in this country causes the Chicago
papers to express the hope that IL
the Canadian authorities demand
Holmes. the modern Blue Beard
that he will be surrendered so that
he may have speedy justice meted
out to him.
There are few people of note in
the city. The members to the Silver
convention that meets here on the
l4th instant, are coming in, but
not a hundred thousand strong.
Senator Harris is here and will pre-
side. Speaker Crisp is in England
and no doubt ''assisted" Mr.. Speak
or Gully to preside over the New
Parliment that meets to-day. Ex-
Speaker and next speaker Reed is
devoting his time to "byke" riding
and is giving no thought to the
53rd Congress from which many
OF his greatest directors have been
eliminated.
The heat has driven all who could
leave from the city and on Saturday
the Rail Roads aud steamers we're
crowded. Yesterday fully ten
thousand people availed themselves
of the excursions to the resorts on
the Potomac, and the electric cars
took thousands out to the terminus
of the roads.
The ninth street line -is equipped
with moter cars and great satisfac-
ton is expressed by those who pa
tronize them. Work has been COM
mence on the Metropolitan or F
street route. Also upon the cleo
trio road to Baltimore. By re-
cent report of the Bureau of statis-
tics 1t is shown that while the capt.
tai employed in electric industries
has increased four million, that in
vested in horses has decreased an
equal amount, and the prediction
is made that soon horses will be
luxury, for already wagons and car
riages are propelled by various mo-
tiers, gasoline proving thus far,
the best.
The markets are at q stand still,
and are well supplied, chickens
(spring) are scarce.
In a few days the truckers mark
ct will be open, and the people from
the country who bring their own
produce in will have better oppor-
tunity to dispose of it.

In another column we print call
for y members of the st. Mary's
State Central Committee to meet
and determine upon q time for hold
ing the primaries for the selection
Of Democratic county ticket. The
Committee will meet Tuesday next
and the announcement of its meet
ing is to give all Democrats in the
county who are interested in party
success or who desire to be candi-
dates q show to give their views
as to the most opportune time
for holding the primary. When the
Committee haN heard the differing
opinions it will, we know, carefully
weigh oil and we are satisfied will
arrive at a conclusion which will
conduce to party harmony and sue
cess in the coming election.

Lots of goody-goodies who are
inveighiDg against rings in the
Democratic party are apparently
blind to the very same obnoxious
circles in the Republican aggrega-
ton for they never mention them.
A very prominent Baltimore Re-
publican stated before the primary
that il Lowndes defeated Master
in Baltimore city it would be be-
cause the Lowndes ring controlled
the windows of the polling places.
Lowndes got there, and q careful
reading Of the Baltimore dailies'
reports of the primary, demonstrate
that the said p. b. r. is a prophet.
And a Republican ring is so much
in evidence in st. Mary's too, that
it obtrudes itself upon the view of
anyone who will see.

Before another issue Of the BEA-
coz candidate Hurst's letter of ac-
ceptance Of the Democratic guber-
material nomination will doubtless.
ly be given to the people. We pre-
diet that it will be a document Of
no uncertain sound, and as the
whole record of Mr.. Hurst's life is
that OF a man who is faithful to his
word and true to his pledges, crit
les Of his position on current sub
iects would, it seems to us, be act
ing with more justice and fairness
il they waited to learn his views
before finding fault with them.

Large forces of hands have been
employed the past week in cutting
passage ways through the drifts and
opening out the turnpikes and prin-
cipal county roads. The Kabletown
and Bloomery turnpike was the first
opened for travel. The Harper's
Ferry turnpike was opened Thurs
day before noon, and the Berryville
turnpike and Duffield's road were
opened Friday. There are still i'm
mense drifts in the various roads of
less importance all over the county,
but to remove them, an intelligent
road surveyor says, would cost the
county ten thousand dollars. The
probability therefore is that they will
be left to thaw out, which will take
take some time even under the most
favorable circumstances.
