What the people call consumption the
doctors are in the habit of calling tuber-

most expressive and descriptive of this
terrible malady that causes more deaths

MIR. Penpey's Summing Up.
District Attorney Penneys address to
the jury was in part as follows:
1T is hardly possible for any man to
stand before his fellow-men and talk,
without the deepest emotion, concerning
the awful tragedy that has come upon
the entire world. The distinguished turist
who was forced by his duty as a citizen
to present the formal rights of this de-
fendant says that there IS no question,
that it has been proved beyond any per-
adventure. that this man was the lnstru-
ment that caused the death of our be-
loved President, and he simply leaves you
with the statement that if this man was
mentally responsible, then he is guilty of
the crime of murder in the first degree.
Gentlemen, the question seems simple
to me What evidence is there in this
case that this man is not sane? Under
the admissions that have been made here
that he is the agent that caused the death,
how brief ought to be your meditation,
how brief ought to be your consultation?
Gentlemen, it is an awful, an awe-in-
spring and a great truth that has been
taught in this case When l think, gen.
tlemen, of that grand man who stood but
a few days ago in the Temple of Music.

walks of life mad made his own way by
his own unaided strength and courage,
where he became a lawyer. judge,
Congressman, a Governor, and then
President, and, more than all. also a low

sick wife through all the terrible weeks
of her illness, notwithstanding the great
responsibilities upon him as President OF
our country; a man who was so great

take into his hand the hand of that crea-
ture. When i think of this. gentlemen,
/ think of the great spectacle, the great
lesson that 1t has taught
Il am convinced, if never was before.
that there is such thing a national

MONTGOMERY COUNTY NOTES.
A Remarkably Large Corn Crop Re
ported by Farmers

ROCKVILLE. Md. Sept. A.-The corn
crop in this county this year is said to be
one Of the largest ever raised here.
Throughout the country the farmers say
that the average crop will be from twelve
to fifteen barrels acre, while many
claim that great number of farms viii
average sixteen or eighteen barrels an
acre. The crop heretofore has averaged
from seven to ten barrels. This increase
in the corn crop is due largely to the
rains which have fallen here all during
the spring and summer months, the same
rains that caused the damage to the
wheat crop.
The surveyors surveying for the Wash
ington. Westminster and Gettysburg Rail
way Company having surveyed the route
through this county from Washington TO
Gettysburg by way of Reiland and Lay
louisville this county. have started survey
ing another route. which begins at Wash
ington Grove and runs by way of Da-
mascus. The first route left the Balti-
more and Ohio tracks just above Rock
Vile. Another route is to be surveyed and
the most practical of the three will be
used.
