Geo.W. Mullican, who was elected at the
November election to succeed James p.
Colt as sheriff of this county, took the oath
OF office Tuesday and entered upon his du-
ties. He appointed the following deputies
Artemus Sullivan, VIM. r. Embry, Aaron
r. Hewitt, Mervin Counselman, William
Hessie, Ernest Cssell, Reginald Gross and
Joseph Qunter. He will name additional
deputies later.
Belma Landon, four years of age, a very
interesting little daughter of Mr.. George
Landon, who resides near Silver Spring,
this county, was scalded TO death at the
home of her father on Saturday even
ing last. Mr.. Landon, little Belma and
pet dog belonging to the child were play
ing in the kitchen. The dog bolted from
under the stove where he had hidden HIM
self for the instant in the play and as he
did so knocked one of the legs from under
the stove, upon which set pot Of boiling
water. Both fell as the child was nearby.
The water covered the child's body from
her shoulders to her feet. The injury she
received was fatal and she died Sunday
evening. Her remains were inferred Tues
day in Rock Greek Cemetery.
Recently Walter Atwood, aged years,
and his brother few years older, sons of
Mr.. James Atwood, who resides on his
farm near Montrose, this county, were chop
ping wood at the woodpile at their fathers
home and Walter had the index finger Of
his left hand cut off between the two first
joints and the second finger nearly cut in
two. The accident happened when the
hand was caught between the downward
stroke with the axe OF the older brother and
the uplifting Of the axe of Walter, whose
hands were gripping fast the axehandle
and the left one came in contact with the
sharp blade Of the axe welded by his BROTH
er. DIR. Linthicum, OF this place, dressed the
wound after first taking the index finger off
above the knuckle. Walter is an unusually
bright boy for his years and very manfully
explained to Us on his last visit to the doc
tor the circumstances in which the accident
occurred. We are glad to be able to state
that he is doing as we'll as could be expect
ed and has suffered but little from the
wound.
Attorney General Bonaparte on Monday
last made motion in the United States Su-
preme Court TO dismiss the suit OF the State
of Louisiana against the Secretary Of the
Interior and the Commissioner of the Cen
eral Land Office to restrain them from car.
rYing out their purpose to cancel list en-
bracing more than 5000 acres approved to
the State by former Secretary Hoke Smith
in 1895. This suit was filed on behalf of
the State by Mr.. George II. Lamar, Of Rock
vile, who submitted in the Supreme Court
an extended brief in opposition to the mo-
ton. The Attorney General objects to the
Jurisdiction OF the court, contending that
the United States cannot be sued without
its consent Mr.. Lamar in his brief admits
this proposition, but contends that an officer
of the United States may be restrained from
taking unlawful action and cites the cele.
brated case in which the heirs OF Gen. Rob-
ert E. Lee recovered the property now con-
stituting the National Cemetery at Airing
ton, Va.

Attacked by Vicious Horse.

Attacked Dy Vicious Horse we
learn that the condition of Mr.. Howard
Ward is improving. This fact his many
friends of this county will be glad to read.
On Thursday last two weeks ago he was
walking behind horse In the discharge Of
his duties as chief manager Of the horses in
a stable OF the Washington Fire Department
and was kicked on the leg by the animal.
The blow broke his leg and knocked him
down at the same time. He was unable TO
move himself from behind the horse and lay
there until help came to him and removed
him from further danger. The meantime
the vicious horse continued 10 fire ineffec-
tive blows with his heels in the air and over
the body Of Mr.. Ward. In his furious at
tack his feet slipped from under him and he
fell with his heavy weight upon his victim.
He arose and again rained his blows upon
the air, but was finally conquered.
II was found that Mr.. Ward had one leg
with a compound fracture and his breast
and other leg very badly bruised. He was
taken to the Casualty Hospital for treatment
Alter he was there few days pneumonia
set in and his case gave encouragement to
his physician and family for while.
Mr.. Ward Is a native Of this county and
a son of Mr.. Peter Ward and son-in law
of the late Richard Ricketts,, of near Der
wood, this county. For the last several
years he has been In the Fire Department of
Washington, VIII ere his services are highly
appreciated.
