Meeting Held Saturday Evening at

Special rr,sTondence OF The Evening Star
HYATTSVILLE, Nd, October 81 1898.
The Vansyille Farmers Club of Prince
Georges county met Saturday evening at
New Birmingham Manor" near Muir
kirk, the county residence OF Mr.. j. D. Cas-
sard. Those present were Messrs. Charles
II. Stanley, Luther Brashears, John Snow
den, ID. M Nesbit, A. j. Bennett, Lloyd
E. Dorsey, S. w. Bean, DR.. Richard S.
Hill and J. d. Cassard. The guests were
Director H. ]. Patterson of the expert
| ment station; Prof. Robinson, horticulture
ist, Maryland Agricultural College; Prof.
J. u. Wartield, Mrs. L. H. Brinaley Luther
Brashears, jr, James E. Lynch, John
Snowden, l.. d. and Percy Cassard and L.
A. Fuller.
An inspection committee composed of
Stanley. Beall and Snowden, reported eulo-
gistcally on the hosts model farm. The
| resignation of Col W. S. Powell presi
dent OF the club was accepted with eX
preSSionS OF sincere regret.
The question cf holding a farmers inst-
tute in Upper Prince Georges county
discussed, and the Commlttee having the
matter in charge directed to express
the wish OF the club to the director OF
institutes tfat an institute be held at
Laurel, provided it will not interfere with
the regular institute authorized by law
to be held in Prince Georges, Anne Arun-
del, Howard and Montgomery counties.
The club passed suita bic resolutions of
regret upon the retirement OF Mr.. 4. ii.
Brinkley from the experiment station and
certified its interest taken in the work of
Mr.. Brinkley. This gentleman, as stated
at the time, ouSted from his position
| as assistant agriculturist at the station on
account of some uncompmentary remark
alleged to have been made by him concern
ing Gov. LoWndes.
An elaborate repast was served. presided
over by Mrs. Page and the Misses Mason
and Jones.
Upon reassembling, Mr.. Luther Bro
shears, a charter member of the club was
elected president of the organization, vice
Powell, resigned. The question of immi-
grafton was earnestly discussed, Prof.
Wartield speaking at some length in adVo-
cacy of general immigration, and DIR. Hill
and Mr.. Stanley speaking against the con-
centration of great number OF emi-
grants in any particular section. These
gentlemen thought the expenditure OF the
funds necessary to carry on Immigration
work might be better spent on the improve
ment of the county roads. This view was
general in the meeting.
At recent meeting of Key Stone Royal
Arch Chapter No. 81, of Maryland, held in
Masonic Temple, the following officers were
elected Excellent high priest, DR.. Chas.

At the CAPITAL

WASHINGTON, Nov. 4.-Thanksgiving
day was observed in the usual way. A snow
and rainstorm Kept the people off the streets
and reduced attendance at the churches.
All the executive departments and business
houses were closed. The president, attend
ed by his brother, Abner Mckinley, at
tended divine services at the Metropolitan
Methodist church, and listened to a sermon
by the Rev. DR.. Bristol, the pastor, who
preached from Exodus, his text being: BE
hold, l send an angel before thee" DR..
Bristol, referring to the war, said that never
before had providence permitted a people to
wage more just and humane war-a war
which had brought new honor, new liber-
ties, new life and new responsibilities to
those who now rejoice. The people, he said,
should be grateful for future prospects, as
well as for past blessings. The rest of the
day the president spent at home He ate his
Thanksgiving dinner with Mrs. Mckinley
and his brother Abner and wife, who are
visiting the White House. Most of the mem
bers of the cabinet are in the city and spent
Thanksgiving day quietly at their homes.

DREYFUS AND PICQUART
The Mills of French Justice Seem to
Be Stuck

PARIS, Nov. 24.-Madame Dreyfus, the
wife of the prisoner of DEVILS Island, has
been allowed to cable her husband.
Despite attempts to maintain secrecy re-
garding the matter, it has leaked out that
Colonel Picquart's deposition before the
court of cessation was sensational. Colonel
Picquart, it is said, broke down and appealed
to the judges to simplify his terrible ordeal.
1t is believed the courts demand for the
secret document will lead to renewed con-
fiict between the military and civil authori-
ties. 1t is understood that DE Freycinet,
minister of war, vainly appealed to General
Iurlinden, the military governor of Paris,
to grant Colonel Picquart provisional lib
erty.
Much Indignation is manifested by the
Dreyfusites at the decision to try Colonel
Picquart by court martial.
The Matn today announced that the out
come of the quarrel between Nj. De Frey
cinet, the French minister of war, and Gen
eral Zurlinden, the military governor of
Paris, arising out of the Dreyfus affair, will
be that General Zurlinden will be called
upon to resign.
Nj. II. Adamard, brother-in-law of Drey-
fus, says the family of the prisoner knows
nothing of what is passing in the court of
cessation. 1t is true, however, that Drey.
fus has been allowed the liberty of walking
about the island. 1t is not believed that lie
will be permitted to reply by cable to his
wife's message.

Soldiers Made Thankful

SAVANNAH, Ga, Nov 24.-Every sol
dier in the Seventh Corps was made to feel
that today was Thanksgiving. All drills
were abandoned for the day and at o clock
each man received donation of turkey
fruit and cake. Over $4,000 turkeys and
several wagonloads of fruit and cake were
sent out to the camp this morning. Tie
feast for General Lees men was provided
for by the ladies of Charleston.
The provost guard regiment, the Fourth
Illinois, was especially entertained in a
separate refreshment tent. The square ta-
bles were covered with flags and flowers.
The members of the teams of the First
Texas and Foriy-ninth Iowa played game
of football in the park to a large crowd.
General Lee attended service at st. Johns
Church. The United States transport
Chester, which is expected tomorrow, will
carry the Fifteenth infantry and twenty-five
wagons and teams to Nuevitas, Cuba. The
transport Manitoba will follow in a few
days with the balance of the Eighth Cavalry
and when she returns the Third Georgia will
go over.

A TRAIN DERAILED

BURLINGTON, Ia. Nov. 24.-The Bur-

senger train, No. 6, due in Burlington at
6:30 a. m, but running four hours late, was
derailed six miles north of Burlington while
rounding a curve. The day coach, containing
about twenty passengers, rolled over twice
and landed right side up in ditch, fifty feet
away. The Pullman left the rails, but was
not ditched.
The following people were probably fatal
ly injured:
Mrs. Catherine Davis of Columbus juno

Amanda IIarmes, 2years old back broken.

is insidious, and men do not realize that
they are in its clutch. While consumption
is germ disease, the bacilli will not in
wade sound and healthy lungs The lungs
must first be in diseased condition.
First a man feels a little out of sorts.
Probably he Is overworSed and has given
too little time to eating, sleeping and rest
ing. His appetite falls off. His digestion
gets out of order and his blood does not
receive the proper amount of life-givirg
nutriment. The liver becomes torpid and
the blood is filed with impurities. These
are pumped into every organ of the body,
building up unhealthy, half-dead tissues.
The most harm is done at the weakest spot,
and most frequently that spot is in the
lungs. A slight cold leads to infamma-
ton, the bacilli invade the lungs and we
have case of consumption.
Ninety eight per cent of all cases of
consumption are cured by DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. 1t is the great
blood maker and flesh builder. 1t restores
the lost appetite, makes the digestion per-
feet, invigorates the liver, purifes the
blood, builds new and healthy flesh and
drives out all impurities and disease germs.
1t cures weak lungs, splitting of blood, obsti-
nate coughs and Kindred ailments. No hon.
est druggist will recommend substitute.
