Friday everfRg last, during the progress ef a tournament and picnic about a mile west of Darnestown, considerable fighting occurred, in which a number of men en- gaged, all being more or less intoxicated. During the row a man named John Carter was stabbed in the side with a knife in the hands of one Angelo Grimes, and is thought to be badly injured. The wounded man was taken in charge by Dr. C. H. Nourse, who rendered surgical ald. Saturday morn- ing a warrant was issued for the arrest of Grimes by Justice Stonestreet of this place, and on the evening of that day he was brought here and lodged in jail, in default of ball. He will have a hearing Wednes- day, and a number of witnesses of the af- fair have beer summoned. Grimes claims to have been violently assaulted by Carter, who is represented as a powerful man we'ghing over 200 pounds, He also shows marks of severe handling, being badly bruised about the head and face. Grimes is a small man of slender build, and says that Carter has heretofore been in the habit of imposing on him at times, when he was under the Influence of liquor. The democratic primary election in this county will take place Saturday next, and during the present week lively times are expected. Unlike the contest two years ago, the present one has been apparently quiet, but at the same time the bitter feel- ing between the “ring” and “anti-ring” wings of the party, though partially smoth- ered, still has a stalwart existence. This state of affairs is clearly shown by the bitter fight being made against the nomina- tion of Mr. Josiah J. Hutton for the house of delegates, who is well known as an out- spoken opponent of “machine” methods, and also the great effort being made by the “ring” for the renominatiom of Dr. E. C. Etchison, who acted with them as a mem- ber of the last legislature. So far as the governorship is concerned Mr. Spencer C. Jones will have no opposition in this county and will have the selection of the delega- tion to the state convention. In regard to nominations for the various county offices the prospect is considerably’ mixed, and nothing but the counting of the votes will settle the question. Rumors of trades and counter trades are rife, some combina- tions extending as far in the future as the next election of clerk of the circult court and register of wills, and already some of the leaders of the party are accused of having sold out for a supposed advantage in the next general contest. When the [aapee primary campaign opened a num- er of the prominent leaders of the “anti- ring” element of the party were in favor of making an aggressive and open fight for supremacy in the county, but they were finally overruled by those who appealed for harmony in the ranks, and the future alone can determine the intrinsic value of sald “harmony.” ‘The first of a series of summer dances by the Rockville Assembly was given on Thursday night at Garrett Park, and was attended by a large number of ladies and gentlemen from various parts of the coun- ty, the District and other places.

Good Advice to Clerks From a Man Who Knows. From Art in Advertising. The following matter is reprinted from a circular prepared by Mr. I. Gans, manager of Lansburgh & Bro. of Washington, D. C. It contains some very practical advice to salesmen and cannot fail to be of in- terest to many of our readers: It is not every one who can make a good sales person. It requires a certain knack which is innate, and cannot be acquired. First of all, one must like the vocation if he intends following it. Without this you will lose a great deal of time valuable both to yourself and your employer. Some take Positions in shops through inclination, others through force of circumstances. But when one enjoys a position back of a counter he can always make a success of it. Patience, perseverance and ambition must be the watchwords of every sales person. ‘These are indispensable qualifications. Patience to an unlimited extent is abso- lutely necessary, for without patience no clerk will make a successful salesman. Perseverance is another attribute much needed in the “make-up” of a good sales- ™man. But this is often overdone by clerks making the error of supposing that a con- sont digging at a customer effects the le. 3 Strive to Rise. As to ambition, I would not give much for the future of any young man who would be satisfied always with the posi- tion he holds, however good it be. He neither benefits himself nor his em- ployers. This is the greatest mistake a salesman makes. The moment he feels he has attained his aspirations that moment he has exhausted his usefulness to his house. He should strive to gather the knowledge and workings of all stocks, though he be confined to one department. He should strive, first of all, to work through the dif- ferent grades until ke is at the head of his special line. He should learn to obey, not because he must, but because he ought to. One who cannot obey cannot command. He will be unfit even to assume the charge of his stock should opportunities ever give him the chance. He must act, in carrying out his instructions, with the expectation that some day he will have a place of busi- ness of his own, and must learn to run tt successfully. He should always dress neatly and gen- teelly, never in an eccentric or fastidious manner. He should be agreeable, without being intimate; pleasant, without being of- fensive. He should at all times be in readi- ness to walt on customers and apprvach them with a pleasant address, remember- ing that the first impression is the one that tells. On receiving a reply from a customer he should show his goods in an unostenta- tious manner, trying to sell without impor- tuning. How to Treat Shoppers. Shoppers nowadays are intelligent. They know well the value of merchandise, and, therefore, it does more harm than good to enlarge too much on what you are selling. A pleasing explanation of the fashion, a general suggestion, and then the salesman should allow the customer an opportunity of exercising unbiased judgment. Sales are often ruined by overmuch talk. Be honest in your suggestions; never overdo anything; show your wares to the best advantage; make your stock look pre- sentable, and you will be a success. Many clerks make mistakes by being forced into submission. It is far better to do what is expected of you in a graceful manner than to be coerced. Promptness is another factor in_the “make-up” of a good sales person. That employe who lags a few moments in the panning or noontime will lag all through fe. Discretion in waiting on a customer is another rare quality. To a neat person show neat patterns. Te one who fs a little more lavish in style of dress show goods according to such tastes. Never try to con- vince a customer that your way of think- ing is right. You can advance your ideas, but {f you find that they confiict-with your patron's views argument is very harmful. Be truthful under all circumstances; never misrepresent. Even though you should make a sale through misrepresenta- tion you have surely lost a customer, and your house loses that patronage. The truth in business is a mighty power, and para- mount to all other qualifications. Show Merit and Ability. Always be doing something. In a large store, as well as a small cne, there is al- ‘ways something that should be improved. Idleness leads to mischief. Silly conversa- tion back of counters has been the start- ing point of the downfall of many young people who might have made a success of thefr vocation. In the first place, by your frivolous conversation you lose the respect of even those who listen to your prattle, and besides that you do yourself the great- est injustice. If you do not begin by gain- ing the respect of those around you, you need never expect it from your superiors, There is no position in an establishment that you cannot gain, if by your merit and ability you are qualified to fill it. Bear in mind that seven-eighths of the employers of today started in life at the bottom of the ladder, and only attained what they now have through harder work than is needed by you. Be ever mindful of your employer's Interests. If you are faithful in your duties to your employer reward will surely follow. Sometimes it may be slow in coming, but it will certain- ly come. It will always be necessary for some one to be given complete charge of the large establishments which exist today and will exist in the future. Why not you? It is worth trying for, and if ycu combine the requisites mentioned your. chances are as good as the best. —_—__+e+___ A Usefal Cigar. From Tid-Bits. A good story is told of a sea captain who died not long ag2, and who was formerly in command of a ship in which passengers were carried from London to Lisbon. On one occasion the ship caught fire, and the passengers and crew were compelled to take hurriedly to the boats. The captain remained perfectly cool throvghout all the confusion and fright of the debarkation, and at last every one except himself was got safely into the boats. By the time he was ready to follow the passengers were almost wild with fear and excitement. Instead of hurrying down the ladder the captain called out to the sallors to hold on a minute, and, taking a cigar from his pocket, coolly lighted it with ‘a bit of burning rope which had fallen from the rigging at his feet. Then he descend- ed with deliberation and gave the order to push off. “How could you stop to light a cigar at such a moment?” ke was asked afterward, when some of the passengers were talking over their escape. “Because,” he answered, “I saw that if I did not do something to divert the minds of those in the boat there was Ikely to be a panic, and, overcrowded as it was, there was danger of the boat being upset. The act took but a moment, but it attracted the attention of everybody. I was not nearly so unconcerned as I seemed to be, but was in reality in a fever of excitement, My little plan succeeded. You all forgot yourselves because you were thinking of ™my curious behavior, and we got off safely.” BRAIN FAG.

The steamship Miowera, which arrived from Australia and Hawail Saturday, brought the intelligence that at the gather- ing on the Fourth of July in honor of American Independence day the Rev. Joseph Cook of Boston was invited to speak. Mr. Willis, the United States min- ister, who presided, presented Mr. Cook in complimentary terms, and Mr. Cook took for his subject ‘‘The Republics of the Trop- ies.” He said nothing of the Fourth of July. He congratulated all that there was no color line or slavery line in Hawail, and went into an oration on southern republics as upheld by what he called northern prin- ciples. Coming quickly to Hawall, Mr. Cook entered upon almdst a direct criticism of the Cleveland administration, arraigning it for misrepresentation, and saying that he would make some corrections. Mr. Willis protested on the ground that the occasion was not one for partisanship. He was greeted with shouts of applause. Mr. Cook, considerably confused, asked for a bill- of particulars, declaring he was not accustomed to either a straight jacket or gag. Mr. Willis replied that the contracted sen- timent from a Boston cavironment was not broad enough for an American celebration in Hawail. iz Mr. Cook said Boston had a good deal to do with achieving American independence. Mr. Willis said this was granted, and that all were proud of it. - The lecturer quickly concluied his re- marks on annexation. He bade good-bye to Minister Willis and Dr. MacArthur, and left the hall amidst silenc>. The exchange of words created tremendous excitement among thoses present. D. P. i3irnte, Prof. Scott, Dr. McGraw and several other prom- inent men said that they were cn the pont of interrupting Mr. Cook when Mr. Willis protested. The Star says editorially, among other things, that the American minister found an opportunity of a lifet'me at the Fourth of July meeting. The manner in which he conducted himself won golden opinions. Mr. Wii:s was commended on all sile3 for the patriotism, courage and calmness with which he presided. Gift to the Naval Academy. The sloop-yacht Med:1sa, presented to the Naval Academy by Mrs Mary Ludlow of New York, arrived at Annapolis at half- past 6 yesterday morning. The vessel form- erly belonged to the late Robt. Center, a friend of the academy. After his death his mother, Mrs. Ludlow, made the presenta- tion as a memorial to her son, who had been a member of :he United States Naval Institute. The acceptance of the yacht has been made by the Secretary of the Navy through Capt. Cooper, superintendent of the Naval Academy, In addition to Lieut. D. Daniels, who was in charge, and a crew of sailors, several eadets accompanted.the Medusa from Port Jefferson, on Lorg Island, N. Y. =i The new addition to the Naval Academy is 56 feet in length; breadth, 12.2, and depth, 9.5. The gross tonnage Is 28.79, and net tonnage 27.36.

In a letter just published in Kansas he says: “A new party must be formed, be- cause there is new. work to be done—work that the other parties are not fitted for. But it will be built’on a foundation deeper and broader than ‘free silver’ or ‘bimetal- lism,’ for these terms express nothing that reaches the core of the troubles which con- front us. Its motto will be something like this: ‘Let the people rule.’ Its platform could properly be short, plain and impres- sive to the needs of the times, and could be safely constructed on six pillars: “‘First—Get the people at work; pay them for what they do. “‘Second—Away with landlordism.” “Third—Out with the transportation mo- nopoly.” “*Fourth—Out with the money power.’ “‘Fifth—Up with the people.” “‘Sixth—Live the republic.” ——__+-e+ A Whitechapel Murder in St. Louis. A white man, evidently familiar with the Whitechapel manner of murder, took the Ife of Ella, alias “Kid,” King, a negress twenty-eight years of age and a dissolute character, at a late hour Saturday night in St. Louls. The woman's abdomen was rip- ped open by the knife of the assassin in such a manner that the entrails slipped out. She died at the hospital soon after reaching there. Charles Scklick was ar- rested on suspicion. He strongly denies guilt. +o _A Monument to Bismarck.
