4 Leading Figure In the Politics of
Maryland PASSES Away.

y
Centerville Md. June 2.-Hon. Thomas
]. Heating died yesterday morning at his
late home in Ceuterville. aged sixty-nine
years. For number of years his health
had not been very robust. He resigned the
office of State tax commissioner about
three months ago. Symptoms of heart
trouble developed in the early part of
March. and he had not been able TO leave
his ROOM except on a few occasions. for
a very short time. for over two months.
It was apparent TO his friends that his
vital powers were declining rapidly. and
his death, though sudden. was not unex-
pected.
Mr.. Heating was a leading figure in
Maryland politics. He was a member of
the constitutional convention of 1867.
which framed the constitution under
which the Democratic party returned TO
power He took a leading part in its
deliberations. In 1874 Mr.. Keating ran
for Congress, but was defeated by Gov.
Thomas in the nominating convention.
and the next year was president of the
Democratic State convention, at which
Hon John Lee Carroll was nominted
for the governorship-
In November, 1877. he was nominated
by acclamation for the position of State
comptroller, and elected over his oppo-
nent, DR.. Porter, of Allegany, by the
the State His popularity is attested by
the fact that he always led his own tick

afternoon from an encounter with a boar
in the woods. Young Taylor was on his
way TO Sydney Taylors, and In passing
through the woods owned by Mr. Alonzo
Williams was suddenly attacked by a
large boar, which became furious at the
sight of the boy. It charged upon him,
knocking him down, and with its long.
sharp tusks inflicted a number of severe
wounds on different parts of the body.
Two deep gashes several inches long
were inflicted on the boys right hip. and
one of the tusks punctured the right lung.
making dangerous wound
But for the timely arrival of help Young
Taylor would probably have been killed,
His cousin, hearing cries for help. went
to investigate and soon saw the awful
plight of Taylor. As soon as the boar
caught sight of the would-be rescuer IL
made a dash for him. He was compelled
to mount a fence close by to escape the
fury of the enraged brute. While the
boar's attention was thus attracted Tay-
Tor succeeded in getting up and making
his escape to the fence. The injured boy
was brought to Salisbury, and received
surgical attention, but 1t is feared the
wound in the lung will prove serious.

A SIGNAL SYSTEM.
How the BIOckadinG Fleet Guarded
Against Surprise

Key West, Fla. June Am interest
ing account of the precautions taken to
prevent the blockading vessels or Ha-
vana being surprised by the Spanish fleet
was told today by an officer of one of the
vessels stationed as a scout in the Yu-
catan Channel, who arrived this morn
ing
Before the Spanish feet was definitely
located there was some apprehension
that il would make dash through the
Yucatan Channel and attempt to destroy
the blockading feet patrolling off Hava-
ma and seek refuge in the harbor The
only ones who expressed no concern about
the apparent danger were the Navy off,
GERS who seemed exposed to Il. Now it
appears that they had good reason for
tranquility. as from the precautions that
had been taken TO guard them from sur
prise it would have been almost impos-
sible for them 10 be caught unawares
This is the way it was done: The swift
Vesuvius was sent TO patrol the Yucatan
Channel at It's narrowest point. Direct
ly north of her and within signalling
distance the fast cruiser Cincinnati kept
vigil, and still further northward of her
the record breaking st. Paul was on the
lookout. Midway between the St Paul
revenue cutter Manning was stationed
Had the Spanish fleet attempted TO
traverse the Yucatan Channel the Vesu-
vius would have been the first 10 detect
the movement In that event her orders
were to warn the Cincinnati. next in line
by rocket The signal would have been
instantly reported to the st. Paul, and
that vessel would run down the coast
line until her rockets attracted the at
tentfon OF the Manning, which latter
would have set out at full speed for the
blockading fleet. firing her warning rock
cts when within signal distance.
AS soon as the answering rocket was
seen the Manning was to head for Tor
tugas, where all the vessels had been or
dered TO rendezvous upon the approach
of the enemy. It will be noted that the
vessels selected for this picket duty were
the fastest in the Navy. Their speed
would have saved them from capture,
and this. with the we'll arranged plan of
signals, would have made it impossible
for the blockading squadron to be sur
prised.

 Among the visitors was would be young looking middle aged lady, who at every description volunteered the statement that the plants and flowers she had at home were quite equal to anything exhibited here or indeed any where. Just as they were passing a giant cactus she was heard to exclaim:
 "Well, this is nothing extraordinary. I have a cactus at home that is still larger. planted and reared it myself. 7"
 Reared it yourself the professor gently observed. "How remarkablel This specimen is 63 years old, and if yours is still larger"-
