This great find was made on one of the
tributaries Of the Stewart River. and the

DETAILS OF THE ACCIDENT.
Train Was Speeding Fifty Miles an
Rour When 1t Passed Deanwood.

Hour When lit Basseu DeanwOOu.
The story OF the accident, as gathered
from eyewinesses and those who knew
of the movements of Mr.. Claughion and
Miss GUSTS prior to it, is that he went to
a livery stable and procured a handsome
double team, W hich he had been In the habit
of hiring at frequent intervals Since
the death of his wife Judge Claughton has
not been in health, and, following
the advice of his physician, IL was his
custom tn take long drives on pleasant
afternoons. He did not like driving alone,
and was almost invariably accompanied
by some friend
Last night unfortunately his companion
happened to be Miss villa Custis, the
daughter of DIR. g. w. n. Gusts, of No.
40 East Capitol street. The judge had
known the young lady from childhood, IS
he had long known her father, who was his
personal friend.
After securing the turnout he dro ge to the
Custis home for the young lady. 1t was
about 8 O'Clock in the evening Judge
Claughtoa was a good horseman andneither
Miss Custis nor her parents had any fears
when he had the reins. They had ex
pressed the opinio on that the drive should
extend t. Hyattsville and thence over to
the 3e',ning road an d back home, distance
of about twelve miles.
In leaving the house they drove out East
Capitol street for short distance and then
into Maryland avenue and out the Bladens-
burg road 1t is supposed they had been
through uyattsville and were driving back
past Deapwood on the Benning road, at
the time of the accident. 1t was then not
long after z O'Clock, and in the dusk, OBJ
iects could be seen for considerable
distance.
Tnelittle stationat Dean Wood was closed
as only accommodation trains stop at that
point, which is but shortdistance beyond
Benning on the Pennsylvania railroad.
Just opposite the station proper and on
the left hand side of the outgoing track, is
signal tower in which there is an op-
orator on duty at all times.
Last night the man on duty In the tower
was Levi Baker, who has been in the em-
ploy OF the road for some time, but who
has only been stationed at Deanwood for

New York, Aug. 21.-Stocks opened

Diagnosis of Crime.

True grippe is germ disease. These
germs are in the circulation, and per-
Vade every tissue and organ of the body.
THIS brings speedy collapse and often
death TO the aged and debilitated. After
the acute stage people wonder that they
do not recover. They call If the after
effects of the grippe. The fact is the
germs are still alive, and If not destroyed,
will go on breaking down the constitu-
ton, and leave you q physical wreck.
The only germicide known that searches
out and destroys every grippe germ in
the system is Brazilian Balm. A week

COLD IN THEHEAD

Is acute Inflammation and swelling Of the
Olfactory organ which contains the
Nerves of Smell. This organ Is long
ribbon-like membrane and hangs from
the roof of the Nasal passage in folds. as
seen in Fig. 3. When this condition be-
comes chronic, or permanent, it is called
CATARRh. The folds become swollen
into solid mass, so the air in breathing
cannot circulate between them (; hence
the loss of smell The catarrhal microbe
soon makes its appearance, causing a
multitude of small ulcers between these
folds. The pus from these ulcerc is very
poisonous and soon impregnates the
whole mucous surface of the nose, hsad
and throat with the disease. Medical
works show cases where the tonsIls havs
become a corrupt mass of ulcers. 1t not
infrequently involves thewhole bronchial
passage to the lungs, causing consump-
ton and death. 1t will be seen that
nothing can radically euro Catarrh which
does not reach to the seat of the disease
between these folds of the Olfactory
organ, and cleanse and heal these ulcers.
