Mr.. william Bowen.

Mr.. William Bowen, a well known
and highly respected citizen Of this
county, died very suddenly last Monday
afternoon at his home in Newark. Mr..
Bowen was in the 18th, year Of his age
and has been in failing health for
several months but his death at this
time was entirely unexpected. He had
been talking with Senator Moore, of
Snow Hill, and went up stairs for some
fruit to present to Mr.. Moore. After
coming down he took a seat on the
porch, when he was stricken and died
without uttering a word. His death is
regretted by large circle of friends,
not only in Newark where his whole life
was spent, but throughout the county.
OF late years Mr.. Bowen has led a
retired life but formerly took an active
interest in politics; twenty years ago he
served as county commissioner.
He is survived by his widow, who was
formerly Miss Charlotte Bowen, by a
niece, Mrs. Frances Tull, and by num-
Der of relatives in Worcester County.
Funeral services were held Wednes-
day afternoon in Bowen M. E. Church.
of which Mr.. Bowen was member.
Rev. Geo. F. Wood, his former pastor,
and Rev. Joshua Gray ofliciated. The
remains were laid to rest in the adjoin-
ing cemetery.

the latter figure. Every Democratic
candidate was elected.
wICOMICo.
The Democratic majority in Wicomico
was very gratifying and the Democrats
are jubilant over their victory. The
majorities range from 600 to 800. Clerk
of the Court, Ernest A. Toadvine, re-
ceived more votes than any Democrat.
although the hottest fight made by the
Republicans was on the Clerkship.
TALBOT.
Talbot has gone Democratic for all
candidates, but went against the Amend
ment. The Democratic majorities range
from so to 800. 1t is always a close
county, but the Democrats manage to
keep control.
KENT.
Kent elects Democrats to all the local
Offices, but gives a small majority
against the Amendment. OF course
this was done by the large negro vote.
QUEEN ANNE.
We take our hats off to old Queen
Anne. The Democrats had to contend
with the cussedest lot Of cusses ever
encountered. Republicans, Independent
Democrats and Negroes all combined to
defeat the Democrats. Because Of this
large negro vote the Democrats had to
arrange a ballot which would in .
measure disfranchise the negro. They
won great victory and they have no
apologies to make for doing what they
did.
CAROLINE.
Caroline County has gone Democratic
by majority of 800. Every man was
elected and small majority was given
for the Amendment.
CECIL.
Cecil is close county, but the Demo
Gratis got the best of the battle. Can
didate for Comptroller, Williams, lost
his county by nearly 800. Omar Crcth-
ers, nephew of Governor Crothers, was
elected Senator by a small majority.
The Democrats also elected their Legis-
lative and Commissioners ticket.

About the middle of the last

down there.
His name was Butler, and
among his pupils was one from
a wealthy family of the name of
Ward. The boy had been chas
tised for some infraction of the
rule, whereupon an older brother
went to the school house, called
the teacher to the door and shot
him to death like a dog. In the
trial that followed, John J..
Crittenden, a senator in con
gress from that state, and an
eloquent advocate at the bar
withal, was retained with 9TH
ers, to defend the murderer
Ward. In closing his address
to the jury, he gave the imagin-
airy colloquy over the proprie-
ty of mans creation as recited
in the Talmud, with some rhet-
orical additions Of his own, and
let it go to the jury and the
