German Syrup is the specipl prescrip-
tion OF DR.. A. Boschee, a celebrated Ger
man physician, and Is acknowledged to
be one OF the most fortunate discoveries
in medicine. II quickly cures coughs,
colds and all lung troubles OF the severest
nature, removing, as 1t does, the cause OF
the affection and leaving the parts in a
strong and healthy condition. 1t Is not
an experimental medicine, but has stood
the test OF years, giving satisfaction in
every case, which its rapidly increasing
sale every season confirms. Two million
bottles sold annually. Boschee's German
Syrup was introduced in the United States
In 1868, and is now sold in every town and
village in the civilized world. Three doses
will relieve any ordinary cough. Price,

Death of Queen Victoria. .--Wide-

New British Sovereign. LA Man
Who Was Not a Man. lahore New

oCndtOESs
The death of Her Majesty Victoria,
queen of Great Britain and Ireland and
empress of India, occurred at Osborne
House, Cowes, Isle of Wight, at $50
Tuesday evening. The queen had
been falling in health for some ltime,
due to her advanced age, and on
Wednesday of last week she suffered a
paralytic shock, which gave notice of
her approaching death. For the days
remaining, she was only conscious at
intervals, but apparently suffered no
pain, passing away very quietly. The
world was prepared for the end. The
queens immediate family, including
the Prince and Princess of Wales and
Emperor William of Germany, who
was her Oldest grandson. were among
those at the bedside. She recognized
them before death and bade them
farewell. The remains are to be taken
to London, where grand funeral will
be accorded 10 the most beloved of
sovereigns. The Prince OF Wales
becomes the ruling monarch under the
title OF Edward VII. He is already
well along in years and does not enjoy
good health. Victoria was born in
1919, and lacked only few months Of
being 81 years Of age. She was only
Is when she ascended the throne,
succeeding her uncle, William Nv,
there being no nearer male heir. Her
reign of almost 63 years is the longest,
as il is the most glorious, in British
history. Victoria has ever shown rare
traits of womanhood that have made
her beloved of all, endearing her not
only to her own people but to the
entire world. At 20, she married
Albert. prince of Saxe-Coburg, who
reigned with her jointly, as Prince
Consort, until his death in 1861.
Their union was most happy one,
resulting i'm the reestablishment of a
large royal family. The first child, q
daughter, married Frederick of Prussia,
mother of the present German emperor.
The second child was Albert Edward,
who has been so long known as the
Prince of Wales. Other children have
married into many of the royal families
Of Europe. There are numerous
grandchildren, so there will be no
dearth of heirs to the British throne.
After the death OF the Prince Consort,
Victoria, deeply saddened, withdrew
mostly from activity. She has ever
been ready TO lend aid to all worthy
objects. Though not ruling imper-
iously, she has not hesitated to bring
her good Judgment to bear in matters
of state. Her voice has always been
for peace. 1t is known that the South
African war was in opposition to her
desires. and the enormous losses it has
entailed in blood and treasure have
borne deeply upon her. Messages of
coincidence are raining in upon the
family from all quarters of the globe.
II may well be said that no monarch
ever lived that left behind so long a
record of good.

Wheaton, Lancaster county, is one of

large shocking houses employ hundreds

of dollars. They are owned and operated
by Wheaton & Blackman, Coulborn
Bros, and the Tull Oyster Co. Thou
sands Of bushels of shells are now being
planted, a number of oyster houses are
being enlarged, and eight more are to be
built on the wharf this summer. About
ten new dwellings are In course of erec-
ton. The wharfis being thoroughly re-
paired, and everything is on hustle
making extensive Preparations for the
fall.
As a sample of how real est ate has ad-

HEATHSVILLE.

In spite of the threatening wealth
er of Monday few gathered here
according to force Of habit in order
that this writer might have the priv
ilege of saying in the CITIZEN that
Monday was court day, that the
crowd was small and that there was
no business before the court"
The only resemblance to court was
a warrant trial which took place be-
meath the shade of the spreading
mulberry which stands before A. S.
Rice's office. A negro by the name
of Lawson was warranted by Ma
gunda Beatley on the charge of
killing the latter's OK. 1t seems
Lawson was driving Beatley's team
and while doing so one of the steers
"kicked the bucket" Beatley claim
ed the negro beat the OK to such a
degree as to cause its death. Justice
Eichelberger put fine of $50 and
costs on Lawson for cruelty to ami
mails. Lawson, through Thomas
Downing as attorney, took an ap-
peal. The day otherwise passed off
quietly. All seemingly enjoyed a
chat with friends congregated in
the courthouse or in the stores.
There is something strange with our
court days. AS general rule the
same familiar faces are to be seen.
The general makeup of the crowd

the crowd was not fair representa-
tive of a usual court day at Heaths-
vile. Many of those accustomed to
be here were absent and there were
many rarely seen here present.

fitted for the place. No better man
