church, will conduct the service.
Dr. Pomeroy died yesterday at the resi-
dence of John Thompson, an old friend of
his, near Smyrna, Del, where he had been
visiting for several days. His death is sup
posed to have been the result of an over
dose of chloral hydrate, taken for insom-
MIA, from which he had been a great suf-
ferer for several years. He had written a
prescription which was filled at Smyrna
drug store, and it is supposed the first
dose not bringing sleep he had taken sec
ond and larger one. He was found dead
in his room when Mr.. Thompson went to
call him. His wife was telegraphed for
and left for Smyrna to bring the body to
Washington.
DIR. Pomeroy was sixty three years old
at the time of his death, and one of the
best known dentists in Washington He
was born near Cleveland, Ohio, and served
with distinction in the Union army during
the civil war, removing to Washington
shortly after hostilities ceased, and prac-
ticed his profession here up to the time of
his death. He was a member of the Old
Guard, of which he was chief of staff to
the commanding officer for several years,
and was also prominent in Masonic circles.
Besides his widow, he leaves as children
Mrs. P. W. Gibbon and Mrs. F. L. White,
and a son. DR.. N.-Willis Pomeroy, prac-

HEALTH OF THE DISTRICT.
Ten New Cases of Diphthcria Report.
ed Today,

Ten new cases of diphtheria located in
seven houses were reported to the Health
Department of the District this morning.
The total number of cases in the District
up to last night was seventy-two located
in thirty-nine house. OF those cases re-
ported this morning, two were in George
town, four in the southeast, and the Others
in the northwest section of the city. The
health inspectors say that this is an ex-
traordinary number of diphtheria cases for
this period of the year, and attribute II
mainly to the unusual atmospheric condi-
tions.
Up to last night there had been reported
thirty-five cases of scarlet fever in twen-
ty-eight houses. This mornings reports
made the total thirty-nine cases in thirty
two houses. Three recoveries were report
ed.
Health Officer Woodward said this morn
ing that as no official reports were made
on typhoid fever in the District the daily
record of cases could not be furnished. bu,
sufficient was known TO justify the belief
that typhoid is not more prevalent this
year than it was last.

With Dewey in full possession Of it's
front door and Funston coming in at the
back door, the country might as well
consider itself taken and surrender un-
conditionally, says the Kansas City
Journal.
Following that fine old Chinese Gus
tom Of giving presents instead of receiv-
ing them on your birthday, Dom Paul
sent an ultimatum Oh his 10Th birthday
to her gracious Majesty, the Queen,
remarks the Buffalo Express.
According to the Chicago Times Her
aid James Ketcham and Ella Gable quar-
relied over fifty years ago, but James's
feet were frozen last winter, and while
he was lying in the hospital Ella saw
him for the first time since they bad
been school children. They were mar
ried at Newburg, N. Y, the other even
ing, and there was only one thing to mar
the ceremony. That was the fact that
Jack Frost was not there as best man.
A Grow Indian astonished the pro-
prietor Of Billings furniture establish
ment the other day by buying an $lS
baby carriage. There's progress for you,
remarks the Big Horn Rustler.
The New York Mail and Express says:
Last night Admiral Dewey sat in the
room where he was born, slept in the old
homestead that echoed the patter OF his
childish feet and was lighted by the par
ent love in the long ago. If we might
hazard guess, it would be that last
night the glories OF New York's recep-
ton, the stirring scenes at the national
capital and the hurrahs of the country
at large were for a time at least lost to
memory, and that George Dewey, gazing
into the flames on the old-fashioned
hearthstons, was boy again in the Yer
mont home. At any rate, this is what
happens to the best sort of man in such
eircumstances-and that is the sort OF
man George Dewey is.
