MONTGOMERY COUNTY, MD. Talk About the Canal—An Embarrass- ing Decision—Damage by Lightning. Correspondence of Tae Evexixe Srar: Rockvitue, June 16, 1889, The decision rendered yesterday by the county commissioners that they would not levy the amount of taxes heretofore paid the cor- poration of Rockville for the improvement of the streets within said limits, has caused a feeling of consternation among our people, but which will doubtless subside in a short time, as the deprivation of the fund enjoyed for many years will be of short duration. Since the adoption of the present constitution of Maryland incorporated towns have been allowed the use of a certain portion | of the county tax on the property within | their limits for the improvement of the same, } and heretofore the policy of this distribution | has not been questioned. A recent decision by | the court of appeals in a case between the cor- | porate authorities of Laurel and the commis- | sioners of Prince George county, hav- iug been brought before the commissioners, | they have decided to withhold the ap-/| propriation to the incorporated towns of this | county. This decision, so far as this town is concerned, throws the town commissioners back for revenue upon the corporate tax, which, under the charter, cannot exceed 20 cents on the $100 of the assessment of property within the corporate limits, and that assessment must be the same as that made by the county, while it is a fact well known to all that the property within the corporation, as well as for several miles adjacent thereto, is not assessed at more than one-fourth of what it would sell for in the open market. Outside of the proportion of the county tax heretofore levied for the corpora- tion the income, yearly, under the present law- ful rate will be between $600 and $700, and taking into consideration the interest on the debt made for public improvements under the | charter a large portion will be required to pay | the interest on the loan. As the matter now stands the property-holders, of the town seem determined that the growing and beautiful town shall take no step backward, but that each | and all will lend « hand to its advancement. The recent proceedings of the board of pub- lic works at Annapolis in regard to the future of the Chesapeake and Ohio canal are looked upon here by gentlemen who are in a position to know the inside workings of state affairs as abuge farce. That anything feasible can be accomplished without an extra session of the legislature and ap amendment to the constitu- tion authorizing the state to relinquish all claims to the property of the canal is looked upon as impossible by prominent men versed in canal matters. The proposition of Mr. Poe to issue additional bonds for repairs, although the same may be declared lawful by the attor- ney-general, is looked upon as “Utopian,” from the simple fact that it would require several mil- lion dollars of the same to secure enough money to mend the breaks and put the canal in run- hing order, to say nothing of future revenue to y interest on the sume. It is generally un- Serstood that the “managers” of the dominant party in Maryland are opposed to any session ef the legisiature that might propose amend- fuente to the constitution, but are ia favor of a | gonvention which will entirely remodel the or- ganic law of the state—and in the interest of the present raling power. During the brief thunder storm which id over this section of the county _yester- = the house of Mr. Bell Ward, at’ Hunting Hill, about three miles from this place. was struck by lightning and burned to the ground. ‘The furniture on the first floor was removed, and the entire loss is estimated at 2,000, partially covered by insurance. Ou Friday a colored man, who has for sev- eral years been employed on the farm of Spencer C. Jenes, near Knowles’ station, was instantly killed by lightning. He and another man were employed in a cornfield, and upon the storm coming up were making their way to the house when the fatal bolt descended, striking him on the back of the skull, breaking his neck and tearing the clothes from his body. ‘The mau accompanying him was stunned, but managed to reach the house and give the alarm. An inquest was deemed unnecessary, Lightning, on the same evening, struck a tree near the stable of Dr. E. C. Etchison, at Gaithersburg. demolishing the tree and injur- ing a corner of the building. The same even- ing a water-spout descended near Goshen, this county, and did much damage to crops. &c. The public schools of the county were closed for the summer on Friday with appro- iste oxercises. The school at Montrose, Miss anche Braddock principal. enjoyed a fine picnic, which was attended by a ss of the parents of the pupils. “At Shady Grove the school of Miss Agnes J. Matlock closed with a pienic, which was attended by a large erowd. Books and other rewards of merit were presented by the teacher to the pupils, = ip return the teacher was presented with a mdsome testimonial by the members of her charge. Geo. Selby, a somewhat noted character, was arrested here this evening, charged with lar- eeny at Derwood, and committed to jail. Sev- shots were fired at the accused before he was arrested. SAM. —_.____ Work of the Sioux Commission. A dispatch from Pine Ridge Agency, Dak., June 16, says: The commissson was informed this morning that the Cheyennes desired to have a council with them, as they did not un- derstand the language in which the commis- sioners made speeches yesterday. The Cheyennes were at once informed that the com- | mission would talk with them, and that no out- side interference would be tolerated. A coun- ¢cilis now in progress. Standing Elk, Little Wolf and Wild Hog. the principal chicfs of the | Cheyennes. and about one bundred heads of | families. were present. Gov. Foster explained ! the provisions of the bill, telling them the ob- tof the actof Congress was to make the \dians self-respecting, self-sustaining citizens of this country, so that instead of being fed by jovernment they would eventually become Producers and prosperous. Major Warner fol- ed ina speech covering practically the same grounds as yesterday The Indians lis- tened with grave attention and manifested | their interests by frequent applause. It was Rew settled that the mixed bloods are in favor of ratifying the bill, and the opposition to it is | mainly confined to Ked Cloud's following. Gen. Crook was not present. — soe Liturgy of Lutherans. At Pittsburg, in the Lutheran general synod, On Saturday, a committee reported in favor of | the adoption of the old common service of the eburch, which several years ago was laid to one side for the new and, it was supposed, much | improved one.

The commencement exercises of Princeton began Saturday morning under a blue sky, but, just as it happend a year ago, a thunder storm arose and spoiled the Caledonian games to the extent that half the exercises were postponed till to-day. A Philadelphia Press special says: The exercises began with the reading of theses by the students of the school of science in Chem- ical hall Saturday morning. The readers and their subjects were as follows: Chas. J. Mont- gomery, Georgia, ‘Determination of Phospor- ous in Pig Iron;” Geo. K. Edwards, District of Columbia, “The Digestion of the Housefly;” Wm. R. Bonsal, Maryland, “Review of the Roof of the Freight House, of the Baltimore Storage and ie aegis Com- pany;” Henry D. Sill, New York, *‘Histolog: of the Stomac! yrus L. Pershing, Pennsyl- vania, “Comparative Anatomy of the Heartand Aortic Arches;” Alonzo E. Conover, jr., New York, “Determination of Phosphorus in Pi, Iron;” Geo. L. Hall, Pennsylvania, “Review o! the Roof of the Hammer-shop of the Pencoyd Tron Works;” Thos. W. Hotchkiss, jr., New York, ‘Magnetic Constants;” Wm. B. Mount, Pennsylvania, ‘‘Brain and Cranial Nerves of the Salamander;” Thomas C. Noyes, District of Co- lun! ‘Separation of Zine from Nickel;” Jobn E. Shrady, New York, “Nervous System of Nereid Sirens.” From 4:30 to 6 p. m. a tea was given by Pro- fessor and Mrs. Osborn. In spite of the threat- ening weather the Glee club concert in the evening was a grand success, the Banjo club also coming in for a good share of the honors. It is one of the best clubs Princeton ever had, and they intend to takea $10,000 trip to Cali- fornia this summer. It has contributed over 27,000 to athletics this year. After the con- cert the club held its annual banquet, pire salem eames A SOLOMON WANTED. A Peculiar Suit Involving the Mater- nity ofa Baby. The White-Schollor baby case, which in- volves the maternity and possession of a baby, developed another sensational scene in Cin- cinnati Saturday. For several weeks the trial has been going on before Judge Outcalt. Kate Scholler sued to recover possession of a baby, which she claimed was born to her on Decem- ber 29, 1887, but Mrs. White alleged that tne | child was her own, born on the same day. The case is a very complicated one and has greatly puzzled the judge, who was to give his deci- sion Saturday, There was a mass of testimony on both sides and much interest was felt in the result. It was noticed when the court met that the child, which had been in the court room under Mrs, White's care, was absent. When asked the reason for this Mrs. White boldly declared that she expected a decision against her and had hidden the child. She said she would stay in jail ten years before she would give it up. The court gave her two hours to recon- sider, but at the end of that time, notwith- standing the urgent appeals of her husband, attorney and friends, she remained obdurate and was sent to jail, where she now is, vowing that she will never give up the baby. In view of the peculiar incident Judge Outcalt post- poned his decision until to-day coe a The Race War in Texas. The latest accounts in regard to the Cedar Creek, Tex., shooting affray are conflicting, one report stating that six men were killed, four mortally wounded, and three seriously hurt; another that only three were killed, Alex- ander Nolan, George Shoep, and a negro named Bell, and four wounded. Officers from Cedar Creek say everything was quiet there Saturday, but a large band of officers were out scouring ‘the country for Wilson, the negro constable who started the affray, and that all the negroes had fled from the neighborhood, soe James Keenan, a Sporting Man, Dead. James Keenan, the most noted sporting man in New England, died in Boston Saturday even- ing, aged fifty-three years, He was John L. Sullivan's backer in the match with Ryan. They afterward fell out, and since then Keenan has backed Kilrain. He also brought out Fred Plaisted and Wallace Ross, the scullers, and was for a time a staunch friend of Teemer. As a backer of hippodrome sprinters Keenan made a great dual of money. For years he con- ducted the most notorious dive in Boston, a re- sort for the lowest type of crooks. He leaves a fortune of $75,000, soo _____ Stanley Meets Tippoo Tib. Letters received at Zanzibar from Ujiji, dated March 10, say that Stanley met Tippoo Tib and sent a number of sick followers back with him by way of the Congo. Stanley intended com- ing to the east coast with Emin Pacha. Tippoo ‘Tib would arrive at Zanzibar in July. = ernpeecats Contract-Labor Law Constitutionality. Some time ago the United States entered suits against Bowker, Terry & Co., of Boston, for an alleged violation of the labor law in the importation of a number of marble workers from Italy. In the United States circuit court in that Saturday the case was heard upon the defendants’ demurrer. The defendants claim that the act is unconstitutional, that it is in conflict with the act of 1887, which author- izes the Secretary of the Treasury to supervise immigration and to return undesirable immi- grants, and the remedy is by contract and not tort. The court reser decision, +o —— Try the Valkyrie Against the Thistle. From the Boston Herald. The sailing of the Valkyrie in her races thus far shows that in light winds she is very fast, and more than a match for the Irex or Yarana. In strong winds she has not done as well, but allowance should be made for her not being in proper trim. One thing is certain, that a new boat of the length of the V: ‘ie, which starts out beating boats already in good trim, must be a fast one. The defeat of the Valkyrie needs to be explained before an in- telligent estimate of her goin, breeze can be made, She may be like many of our forties, oversparred and overpowered, and better under a shugger rig. So fur, there is nothing in- her performance to show that she can sail with the Thistle. Under the same con- ditions the Thistle would have beaten the Irex badly and saved her time. The British yachts- men are behind in many things, and one of the most important is in these trial races, A couple of races between the Thistle and Val- kyrie would soon settle what the latter's chances are, and both designer and owner would be the wiser. If such races should take place, the owner of the Valkyrie might be | saved the expense of coming across, She is not Mr. Roosevelt’s Selt-Control. From the Philadelphia Record. He is very quick with his tongue, and if need be with his fists as well. He is an athlete of various and distinguished attainments—with the gloves, the foils, the canoe, and the rifle. He was noted, while still an undergraduate, for his nerve and his patience. One day at Har- vard he was to face a heavier man in the gym- nasium, and half a hundred fellows gathered to see the bout. The other fellow thought he would be beforehand with the prompt and agile Roosevelt, and so, while they were still shaking hands, he dealt Roosevelt asharp blow with his left hand just over the ear. “Shame!” ill him, Roosevelt!” “Smash him, Teddy” and so on. ‘Teddy was the only man inthe room who re: mained apparently unmoved. He didnot speal he did not strike: he only smiled, offered his right hand to the fellow again, and insisted by an emphatic bow that they should shake hands again. This done, amid ‘the resounding ap- plause of the spectators, he gave his opponent the worst drubbing he had ever had in his life. “= ‘coe 23 Canadian Lepers. An Ottawa, Ont., special to the Philadelphia Press says a few weeks ago it was reported to the Department of Agriculture here, which is charged with the administration of health mat- ters in Canada, that there were cases of leprosy prevalent on Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia. Dr. Smith, medical attendant at the leprosy lazaretto ut Tracadi, N. B.. was instructed to make a personal investigation into the matter, His report, which has just reached the ment, shows that there are three distinct cases of leprosy on the island, two women and one man. The disease has made terrible ravages on the latter, and Dr. Smith reports him to be @ most repulsive looking object. ‘The thr 2 ork heen in daily contact with their fr and Dr. Smith has been instructed to keep a careful watch to see if the disease mani- sould conduct himself as a gentleman and bartender ont of the because he was re- =e He took his behind the bar helped himself , a8 well as three of his acquaintances, who tobe about.

The sworn statements of its daily circulation, published from week to week, taken in connection with the data given below, fh lustrate in the most striking manner the steady and rapid growth of the paper in circulation and influémee, They also establish, beyoud contro Versy, the fact that THE Stak is the best local ad= tertising medium, not oniy in the United Staten, Dut tn the whole world? This claim Is based and conceded on the fact that no city in any country is 0 thoroughly covered by the regularcirculation of a single paper as is the city of Wast.ington by that of THE EVENING STAR; and it does not rest on the «zient alone, bat also on the character of cireulae tion. Not only is its local circulation the largest and /uiest of any daily paper printed, in propor. tion to population, but it is also the BRET, since the Paper does not merely go into the hands of the people of the District of Columbia asa body, but into their homes,—inwo the families of all condi- tons, and into those of the moncy-spending as Well a8 the moneyrarning portion of the com- munity,—in @ much larger ratio thau any daily journal that can be named. By reasou of the fullness, freshness aud reliability of its news, local, domestic and foreign, its independent and fair treatment of all public questions, and espe- cially because of its intelligent and effective de- Votion to loval interests, and its close attention t matters with which the housebvid, and particu- larly its lnay members, are concerned, DUE STAR is everywhere recognized and admitted t© be. in every quality, the leading and favorito newspaper of the National Cepital, aikke in the couuting- Toom, the work-shop, aud the family circle.

It will be seen that, in the number of copies issued, every month in the year 1NSS shows ® handsome increase over the corresponding month in each year given; and, asa further illus tration on that point, it may be stated here thal there has been @ corresponding advance in the Lumber of new advertisements printed during te year. ‘Ihe comparative figures tor we four years asi past are as toliows: PALLY CINCULATION IN 1885~'86—'87-8R.
