THE CANTATA OF "RUTH."-The can
tata Of Ruth" given at the Columbia
Theater last night under the auspices of
the First Reformed Church, for the benefit
of the German Orphan Asylum, attracted a
large audience to that playhouse, both on
account Of the reputation the work has for
excellence and on account Of the charity
which it was intended to aid. The chorus
es were sung in good shape by the fifty
trained voices engaged for that work, while
the work Of the soloist, Mrs. Kitty Thomp-
son-Berry who was called upon at short
notice to take the part of Naomi, was all
that could be desired. Miss Lulu Facius
directed the chorus and cast and Prof.
Arthur D. Mayo acted as the accompanist.
The stage direction was under Mr.. William
H. Conley.

the BathfnE Beach Yesterday.
William Sutherland, young colored man,
son of Keith Sutherland, who lives near

ed in the river just above the bathing beach
yesterday about noon. The young man, il
is said, had been fishing in the morning.
and when he had finished he went in 10
take bath and enjoy a swim. He was a
good swimmer, and several times when he
jumped into the water, from an old sand
scow, his companions noticed that he re-
manned under the surface long time. For
this reason his last disappearance did not
cause any alarm for several minutes, and
then it was impossible to rescue him.
Policeman Sam Browne was called from
the bathing beach, and the crew of the
police boat also assisted in the search for
the body. About $50 o'clock in the after
noon their efforts were rewarded by the
finding of the body, which was turned over
to the dead mans parents. certificate of
accidental drowning was given.

TOOK A FATAL DOSE.


JOnn n. G0f8ers Death Produced ~
Cyanide u Ebtassium.r
John H. Garges, . ,Jdng man, who had
been employed as a&clefk in c. d. Kenny's
tea store. on Pennsylvania avenue, for sew
ef'al years, drank some cyanide Of potassium
yesterday morning fand ten minutes later
he died In terrible agony. He was in the
jewelry store Of HenrysB. Koch, corner Of
Pennsylvania avenue and Sd street south
east, when he swallowed the fatal dose,
and his death ocourfed IN O'DonneH's drug
store, on the opposite CORNER.
Mr.. Garges swallowed the poison by ac-
cident taking 1t for water.
Mr.. Garges and the owner of the jewelry
store had long been friends, and yesterday
morning, when they called at the store,
John D. Crimminsy a mutual friend, was
with them. Mr.. Koch went to the heavy
iron safe to get q piece of jewelry deposit
ed there, and Mr.. Crimmins was standing
near watching him as he manipulated the
lock. Mr.. Garges remarked that he wanted
some water, and walked over to the spigot,
as his friends believed, to help himself.
On shelf near the water spigot was q
glass containing the poison, and Mr.. Car
ges took sip Of 1t. Then he turned to
the owner of the store and asked what
that "stun' was, saying it tasted so funny.
Mr.. Koch could hardly realize that his
friend had been SO careless as to taste the
poison, and thought he was Joking. He
jestingly told Garges that he would better
go to the drug store and get an antidote.
Then 1t was that the victim of the dose
took the matter seriously, and started
across the street in the direction of the
drug store, but when he reached the curb
stone he fell, and realizing he was losing
his power of motion he turned and started
back to the jeweiry store. Hardly hal he
reached the door before he again fell. His
friends carried him to the drug store, and
DR.. Luce was soon at his side, but the
poison had taken effect, and few minutes
later the victim died.
The coroner was notified and he gave
permission for the removal of the body to
the home of the young mans parents, No.
HOG Park place northeast.
The deceased was about twenty-five years
old, and was member of ST. Peters
Church. He had a large circle of friends in
this city, and his sad and sudden death
was severe shock to them.

.Aunt Hannah" Chard Is Dead.

"Aunt Hannah Chard, 1OS years old,
and who had 1O5 descendants, died
the other day at Ferrell, N. ]. She was
brought to public notice about six
months ago, when she resolved to give
up smoking, after having been a de-
votee of the pipe for more than half a
century, because she had read that the
continued use of tobacco would short
en- life. In the latter years Of her life
Mrs. Chard's chief cause of concern
was that she could no longer thread
her own needle. She felt sensitive
about this and did not like the subject
to be referred to in company. Two
years ago she was prostrated for n
short time by the death of her son,
Jackson Chard, at the age of 81. 81
knew / should never rear that boy,''
was the burden Of her lament. "He
was weakly from the cradle" 'Aunt
Hannah" was born in New York. She
ran away from home and was flower
girl in Philadelphia, where she saw
Washington, Lafayette and other rev.
olutionary generals. She accompanied
family of pioneers into the wilder
ness of Southern New Jersey and at the
age of p married William Chard, who
died prematurely thirteen years ago at
the early age of 81. The Chard family
has claim of 1,5O0 acres in Brooklny.
They are related to Gen. Sickles.

From the Mail, Woodland, Cal.
There is probably no man in Yolo
county better known that William R..
Pond, formerly of the drug firm of
Pond & Lawson, of Woodland, Cal.
For five years Mr.. Pond was terrible
sufferer from nervous prostration, and
at and during these attacks, pined for
"sleep that knows no waking"
Physicians were powerless to aid him,
and he was becoming rapidly worn out,
when an old friend, Mr.. Hendrickson,
of San Francisco, recommended him to
try DIR. Williams Pink Pills. In much
the same way that a drowning man
grasps at whatever comes his way, Mr..
Pond clutched at the idea of Pink Pills,
and they cured him, ON his following
the printed directions. Mr.. Pond is
chairman of the Republican county CEN
tral committee, and is never tired of
singing the praises of DR.. Williams
Pink Pills.
Dr. Williams Pink Pills contain, in
a condensed form, all the elements
necessary to give new life and richness
to the blood and restore shattered
nerves. They are an unfailing specific
for such diseases as locomotor ataxia,
partial paralysis, St. Vitus' dance, sci
atica, neuralgia, rheumatism, nervous
headache, the after effects of lagrippe,
palpitation of the heart, pale and sallow
complexion, all forms of weakness
either in male or female. Pink Pills

The School "shows On"

In Illustration of the way in which
teachers lessons are frequently lost on
their pupils, a Chicago teacher tells a
story of some of her pupils showing
off, under her auspices. She had been
drilling into them one afternoon the
difference in the meaning of the words
taught and learned" over and over
again, in the presence of a late visitor,
she had explained the use of each of
the words, and had given them several
examples in which the words were cor
rectly used.
Now" she said, 81 think you have
learned your lesson as well as I have
taught it to you. Willie, will you give
me a sentence with the word taught"
in it?"
A fair-haired, urchin on the front seat
spoke up promptly:
81 fought it was time for school to
let out!'
"No, no! Mamie, you may give me
an example, she said, turning to a
bright girl farther back.
81 fought it was time to go home,"
answered Mamie, with an air as If she
had done exactly the right thing.
And though she tried several times
more, no other form Of the word than
the variation "t'ought" could the teach
er get out Of her school.

SHE'LL WISH SHE WASN'T NEW.

When her duty's manifolded, ,
And her hours of ease are few
Will a change come DER the spirit
OF the woman who is new"
When she's drawn upon jury
Or is drafted for the wars
Will she like her freedom better
Than the "chains" she now abhors?
When she's running for an office
And gets ''left" and has the blues
Won't she wish that she was back in
The Oppressed" old woman's shoes?
When the ship of state she's steering
Mid a storm of mad abuse
Wor't she wish that for the ballot
She'd ne'er thought she had use!
When she finds that she is treated
Like a man." oh, tho she's longed
For just that, won't she be tempted
Often times to think she's wronged!
When no man e'er gives his seat up
In a car, or deigns to hold
Her umbrella when it's raining,
Won't she wish that she was "old''?
Won't she think the men ''just horrid,"
Left to hustle for herself,
Where she's looked on as rival
In the race for power and pelf!
When mans reverence no longer
Is accorded as her due.
When he treats her as brother,
She'll be sorry that she's new!

Building Good Roads.

1t has been said, and the assertion
has not been contradicted, that the av-
erage country road in Illinois Is dis
grace to any community that boasts
of an enlightened civilization. The
Engineering News, which has taken
more than ordinary interest in the
"good roads, agitation, contains pa
per on country road legislation, by
Prof. Van Ornum, of the Department
of Civil Engineering, Washington Uni?
versity, st. Louis. The members Of
the Illinois Legislature would do we'll
to read it. Prof. Van Ornum gives the
following requirements of country
road law: A State highway commis-
sion made up of experts in road con-
struction; q classification of roads in
type and cost in accordance with their
Importance as lines Of travel; distrii
button of the expense of construction
between the. State, county and the in
dividuals benefited; stringent laws con-
trolling the construction, maintenance
and use of such roads and highways.
From Prof. Van Ornum's paper it Is
evident that adequate road laws, adapt5
ed to present conditions and equitably,
apportioning the cost of such construc-
ton, are yet wanting in majority Of
the States. Laws proposing to regu-
late or promote the building Of good
but they generally are out of date or SO
crude in form as to fail utterly In ap-
plication.-Chicago Record.

Brick country Roads.

Davenport Democrat: The impress
sion grows that vitrified brick is the
only thing that will make such a road
as this country needs in the rural re-
gions. Such brick does not wear, and
with a well drained and well built
foundation-and that need not be
costly one either-it will not settle out
of shape. The brick road that is made
right will be in place in a century. The
macadam, gravel or other road is mere
ly question of time, and not of long
time either The brick road costs more
at first, but inside of few years the
other roads more than make up the
difference. The best is the cheapest in
the end.
