Death of DIR. John L. Warning

DR.. John L. Waring died at his resi-
dence in Washington on the End inst, in
the 77th year of his age. HIS funeral
took place at ST. John Catholic Church,
on Feb. 4th. He leaves a widow who
was Miss Belle Hunter of this County.
The deceased was we'll known to the
people of this county, where he resided
all his life up to short time ago. when
he removed to Washington to spend the
winter. He was born in Nottingham
about II years ago, was educated at
private schools and Charlotte Hall
Academy. When a young man he cast
his fortune with the Confederacy in the
Civil War, but never regretted that the
conflict ended in the triumph of the
Union. After the war he took up the
study of Medicine with DIR. Charlie
diversified, of Nottingham, and prescott
ed his studies at the University of Mary
land, where he graduated in 1870, since
when he was actively engaged in the
practice of his profession up to few
years ago. He had a natural inclination
to politics and was deeply concerned in
the public affairs of the county, in
which he kept himself we'll informed.
He was a frequent contributor to the
columns of the local press in which he
would discuss vigorously and courageous
ly current questions of the day. He
was fearless in his convictions and in
dependent in his thinking. He served
as County Commissioner for two terms
and was also elected Judge Of the Or
phans' Court and Road Commissioner.
He would probably have received other
| preferments but for the selfish md
| shallow influences which obtained in
county politics and to which he refused
"to bend the pregnant hinges of the
knee, that thrift might follow fawn-
ing" He was a man of simple tastes
and his wants were few. He was not
| a successful man as the world measures
success-he had no desire for the
accumulation of wealth, but seemed
to find the highest enjoyment in giving
rather than getting, of scattering rath-
er than storing. He would rather
minister unto others than to be minis
| tered unto. He had been incapacitated
for work for the past few years, which
he felt and regretted keenly, as he
would frequently wish that he were
able to do something for others. He
was a man of strong faith and his trust
never faltered, and tho the night were
dark, the storm ragged and the breakers
dashed, he ever saw the light on the
farther shore, he knew that the Father
was guiding the barque and that HI
would bring it safely home at last. HI
had no fears of death-but tired, wear,
and worn he welcomed the summon

Postoffice Safe at Hyattsville Is
Blown Open.

An unsuccessful attempt by three
safe blowers to rob the postotfice at
Hvattsville about o'clock Wednesday
morning was featured by lively pistol
duel between the burglars and Deputy
Sheriff Thomas H. Garrison during
which a dozen or more shots were fired.
The right side of the safe was demol-
ished.
Miss Mary W. Tise, the postmaster,
had no money or stamps in the safe,
having deposited them in the bank.
Mrs. Garrison, wife of the Deputy
sheriff, heard someone walking before
the explosion in the rear of the post
office. She aroused her husband and in
a few minutes muff1ed report was
heard. Garrison saw the rear door Of
the postofflce building open and light
inside. He opened fire, shooting
through the door which is about TWEEN
ty-fve feet from the window in the
rear of Garrison's bedroom, and the
burglars abandoned their work.
A lively exchange of shots followed.
A bullet lodged in the window frame
above Garrison's head and several
struck the rain spouts below him. Mrs.
Garrison says she heard one of the safe
blowers grooming as he was being hus
tied to a waiting machine in the alley
in the rear Of the building.
Entrance was gained by forcing the
rear door. A number of blankets were
taken from a wagon belonging to Car
Bros. & Powell, and these, with coat
belonging to the safe blowers were US
ed to deaden the sound of the explosion
These articles were found. by the SAT-
and a kit of burglar tools were lief
near the rear door.

the postoffice department in Washing
ton said he thought the work was dom
by professionals.

o, noble Lincolnl When you were on earth
You were the butt of ridicule and mirth;
Your frame ungainly and your rustic style
Provoked the courtier, debonair, to smile;
And multitudes throughout your earthly days
Would scorn and criticise where few would prais
Did you not yearn in all those struggling years,
With many heartache and perhaps with tears,
To know if all your toll and sacrifice
Had made you worthy in the nations eyes?
/ wonder, fallen Chieftain can you hear,
Today the multitudes that praise and cheer
Your name, and scatter garlands at your feet!
And these tardy honors doubly sweet?
And do they recompense for all the pain
Of years when all your labor seemed in vain?
