POSTMASTER FALLS DEAD
WHILE TALKING IN OFFICE
George II. C. Hickman Of Point Of
Rocks Was Well Known to
Washington Anglers.

George II. c. Hickman of western
Maryland, and for many years the post
master at Point of Rocks In Frederick
county, dropped dead in the post Office
there Monday afternoon while conversing
with a friend.
Mr.. Hickman probably was known to
more anglers In this city than any other
man in Maryland. for his home at Point
of Rocks, in the fishing region of the
upper Potomac, was the mecca for many
years of all the fishermen who visited
those grounds.
Mr.. Hickman was born in June, 1874, in
what is known as the old Dutch settle
ment near Taylorstown. Va. He was in
the Federal army during the civil war
and served three consecutive years, until
his capture and detention in Libby prison.
where he was kept for some months. On
his release and return to his family he
was scarcely recognized by them, owing
to his changed and emaciated condition.
Mr.. Hickman was a descendant Of the
well known Everhart family, which set
tied In Virginia in colonial times, and
which since then has migrated and be-
come prominent in many sections of the
country. Mr.. Hickman married Miss
Richie Of Virginia, who, with the follow
ing seven children, survive him: Harry
c. Sidney R, Mrs. George Paxson. Mrs.
NJ G. Hardy, Mrs. May Walter, George
H. Hickman and Miss Margaret Hick-

COLUMBUS, Ohio May 25.-Stanley
Harrison. first assistant sergeant-at-arms
of the senate, is scheduled to go on the

George B. Nye. indicted for soliciting a

Living expenses are high here. and i
think the boys ought to get little some
thing out Of It," referring to the passage
OF the Cleveland subway bill.
The ruling by Judge Kinkead that col
lateral testimony of bribe soliciting from
other persons may be admitted as evi-
dence throws the trial wide open, and
there is no telling when 1t will be COM
pleted. This ruling necessitates the call
ing of additional witnesses, and the fol-

PANAMA, May 25. The Nationa
Steamship line steamer Taboga struck q
rock off Punta Mala Tuesday, and sank q
short time afterward. OF the 100 passen.
gers on board only forty are known te
have been saved.
The Teboga had a cargo Of cattle and
was on her regular coastwise trip.
The scene of the accident is about 1O(
miles from the nearest telegraph station

The United States gunboat Yorktown
left here today for the scene Of the dis

The Navy Department is in receipt OF
a telegram from the commanding officer
of the L. S. S. Yorktown, at Panama, re-
porting that the steamer Taboga found

that he was proceeding with the York
