An Attempted Observation-Disclosures
Gaines, colored, was put in Jail here Thurs
day evening of last week on the charge Of
having attempted to poison Mr.. Samuel
Priest, Of Silver Springs. Monday morning
an attempt was made by negroes Of that
section to have the case reopened before the
justice of the peace who had committed him
to jail Mr. Priest appeared before the State 3
Attorney, Alex. Kigour, and made the fol.
lowing statement; That on last Thursday
morning he discharged Gaines. Shortly after
that, on going into the house to cat break
fast, he saw something peculiar in the sugar
bowl. He did not eat any Of 1t during the
meal but took it TO the District Health De.
partment and had it analysed: 1t was found
TO contain Rough on Rats, enough, he said
to kill three or four men. He went TO
Gaines house and found that he was not at
home, but his wife told him that Games
had some Rough on Rats the day before,
and upon looking she found that 1t was
gone. Mr.. Priest Immediately swore out a
warrant for his arrest.

In MemOriam,

Charles Metzger passed calmly and quietly
from time to eternity Tuesday morning, Sep.
TENDER 9Th, 1893, in the fifty first year oil
his age, at the residence of his brother, VIM.
W. Metzger, near Poolesvile, Md.
Truly 1t is a little seemingly simple thing
that ushers a deathless soul from earth to
the "Great beyond" the ceasng of an al
most imperceptible breath and the sudden
stopping of feeble heart beat.
The immediate cause of his death was
rapid consumption, following a severe at
tack of the grip last winter, In fact, he has
not been very robust since having his limb
broken by a fall from colt several years
ago.
He was good citizen, a kind-hearted, un.
obtrusive gentleman, following his chosen
calling of farming In an energetic manner,
He served as Justice of the Peace for two
years under the last Democratic State gov
eminent and was District Committeeman OF
the third district at the time of his death.
His funeral services were conducted by
his pastor, Rev. +. W Pitman, of the Pres
byterian church, of which the deceased had
become member. Interment in Monocacy
Cemetery beside those Of his parents and
brothers and sisters, who have preceded him
to the undiscovered country"
He was a member of large family of
children of the late William and Harriet
Metzger, who were raised in Poolesville,
seven of whom have passed away, the only
representative now in this neighborhood is
William W. Metzger. Mrs. DIR. Baxter, OF
Chicago, ILL.,, and Mrs. Robert Graf, of Den.

SYMPATHY FOR SPAIN.
What a French Journal of influence
Has to Say Now.

Commenting on Spanish reverses, the
French Les Annales says: Unhappy
! Spain marches from disaster to disas-
! ter. After Cavite and Manila, Santa
go; after the destruction of the Pacific
! squadron, the complete adjustment of
the fine Atlantic fleet, Admiral Cervera
and his officers prisoners, and in San
tiago itself-Santiago besieged, fam
ished, on the eve, perhaps, of surrender
brave General Linares lies wounded,
struggling against an adversary three
times superior in numbers.
Rarely has our neighbor passed
more unhappy hours. Rarely has her
ardent patriotism been submitted to
more rude, to more cruel tests.
But in her misfortune she has,
nevertheless, the right to raise her
head. Honor and devotion viii always
remain the properts- of her children.
Her sailors have succumScd. but they
fell proudly and nobly. With i,eroism
worthy of a better lot, they preferred
10 kill themselves, like the command
ant, Lazaya, or dash their burning
ships on the coast.
1T was a heroic contest (the hattie
with Sampson), an epic conflict in the
largest sense of the word, and, perhaps.
without presidents in the records of
maritime warfare.
The four Spanish vessels marched in
a circle OF IRE, IN the MIDST OF a thick
cloud of smoke, threatening destruction
at every step, but refusing fierceIy to
strike their cOlors. And rather than
give them up they cast themselves on
the shore, where the American projec-
tiles completed the task of burning
them. Less than four hours after the
exit from Santiago the Cristobal Colon,
the Vizcaya, the Infanta Maria Teresa
and the OquendO-the pride of Spain
wer nothing but formless and nameless
hulks. The FurOr and the Pluton,
struck with a million bullets, had col
lapsed four miles from the coast.
while destroying totally their enc
mics. the Americans admired them,
and. when the Spanish admiral as
cended, as a prisoner of war, the boat
of the Gloucester. the commander Of
that vessel was able to say to him with
equal truth and courtesy, I congratu-
late you, admiral, in having waged the
bravest fight that ever happened on
the sea "

Denver, July S0.-The Rocky Noun
tain News says: Denver viii, in all
probability, be the headquarters of a
new passenger association, whose ter
ritory viii extend from the Missouri
rver to the Pacific ocean. a meeting
has been called TO take place at Omaha
next Thursday, with the object of eff
fecting the organization. The move
ment started several months ago, but
influences from Chicago retarded its
development. The Union Pacific took
the initiative recently and a tacit
agreement has been reached between
heads of passenger departments. The
regulation of passenger business from
Chicago, in the opinion of lines west OF
the Missouri river, is manifestly I'M
fair, and it is freely prophesied ia Den
yer that the meeting next week in
Omaha can arrive at only one conclu-
sion, and that is to organize a trans
Missouri association, entirely independ-
emf of the Western association. Chair
man Caldwell will then be restricted
to the country between the Missouri
river and Chicago
