Dead Body FOund.-The dead body of
a man, apparently about 80 years of age,
was found on Sunday last on wooded bill =
side, near Cabin John Bridge. An almost
empty bottle which had contained lauda-
mum, lying at the feet, indicated that the
man had committed suicide.
The bottle had on it the mark of Quandt
Brothers, 1874 South Howard street, Balti-
more, which led to the belief that the de-
ceased was from that city or its suburbs
The man had been dead probably from 80
to AZ hours. He had black hair, dark blonde
moustache, was tri1e under six feet in
height, and weighed from 175 to 1870 pounds.
He was dressed in a black sack coat and
vest, light trousers, dark shoes and derby,
and under his left jaw there was a small
scar.
A watch found on the body had scratched
on the inside the name of @. = Pritts or
Rithe, together with RichterstOwn, presum.
ably the name of place.

home, the attendance was good.
The club has been steadily improving
during the last year, although it has met
with many discouragements. The billiards

Spring has CO me with all its loneliness, the
ladies flock to the meetings and enter into
the exercises with renewed zest The club
library is in tlourishing condition, a num-
Der OF the latest books have been added re-
Gently, and much pleasure was derived dur
ing the long cold winter in perusing them
Several bright new members have been re-
Gently added to the club, who add materially
to its prosperity and popularity.
The following program was rendered at
the last meeting:
Roll call, by secretary; reading of min
utes of the preceding meeting, by the Sec
rotary piano solo, by Miss Windsor; Alice,
Where at Thou? by Miss l.. Windsor;

Drowned I'm the CanaI-.About 10
o'clock Saturday the dead body of Peter
Fletcher, young colored man, was found
in the q. q o. Canal, near the Great Falls.
The mans hands and feet were tied, and
there was also rope around his waist, as
If weight might have been attached to him.
One side of his head was badly bruised, and
there were marks of violence on one of his
arms. The body appeared as if it had been
in the water for some days.
Fletcher was resident of Montgomery
county, but for some time prior to Saturday,
May 18th, he had been employed on the
Lydecker tunnel. He boarded in the Dis
trict, but it was his custom TO go to the
home OF his mother, near the brick yard in
Potomac district, every Saturday evening
and return to his work on the tunnel the
following Monday morning. Saturday, the
18th, he visited his home, as usual, and the
next morning, in company with two COM
panions, left with the intention of going to
the Great Falls. That was the last seen of
him alive. His mother had become uneasy
at his failure to return home after his visit
to the Falls, but paid no particular atten-
ton to it until he failed to show up at the
end OF the week. She began to make in
quiries concerning the whereabouts of her
son, and a search for him was about to be
instituted when his dead body was acci.
dentally discovered by section boss on the
canal. The coroner was notified and viewed
the remains, but no regular inquest was held.
The body was buried on the canal bank.
1t has since been ascertained that the
statement that the hands and feet of the
drowned man were tied grows out of the
fact that the man who discovered the body
tied it to the bank to detain it while he was
hunting the county officers. 1t is supposed
that in order to keep it from washing to and
fro he tied the legs. When the body was
examined by DR.. Pratt there were no marks
of violence that could be detected
