MARYLAND ITEMS.

A colored woman named Hester Price
ehoked Mrs Holden, Of Crum pton, badly last
week, while dlsputing over some borrowed
meal. Hester was lodged in Centreville Jail
During a pic nic of the Centreville NJ. f.
Sunday School, last week, horse attached to
a carriage became frightened by the raising of
lady's parasol, and dashed off through the
crowd of ladies and children, and fell upon the
persons of daughter Of Rev. Geo. Barton, and
a Miss Bratten, injuring them in quite a serious
manner. Their injuries are not dangerous,
however, and they are recovering.
Another Fatal Mo,oing Machine Accident =
A fatal moving machine accident occurred
near Warwick, on Tuesday week. As Mr..
John :. Townsend was driving mower for
John j Lockwood, near that place, the reins
became discngaged aud he got off to adjust
them. In going back TO his scat he went in
front of the knives, aud happening to step on a
humble bees nest, aroused the bees which
Immediately flew out and stung his mules.
Maddened by tho pain of the stings the
animals Immediately started forward, and
before Mr.. Townsend could get out Of the
sharp knives, one of his feet was entirely
severed, and the other leg badly cut. The
accident occurred at IL A. NJ, and terminated
fatally at 2 Z. NJ.

ANOTHER RAILROAD PRoJECT.-lt is said
that another through line to the South" is
now on the tapis in railroad circles. The
route, as mapped out, is this: The New Jersey
Southern is to be extended from Millville,
N. j., to Morris river, and from there line
of steamers are to carry the cars to Lewes.
From Lewes they are to run via the proposed
Breakwater & Frankford route (for which the
Legislature appropriated the S2OO,OOO) to
Berlin, Worcester CO., and on to Snow Hill,
from which road is to be constructed via
Newtown to. Cherrystone. From Cherrystone
the cars are again to be boated across to Nor
folk. This information was given out by one
of party of Baltimore and Philadelphia
capitalists who went over to Berlin beach last
week to establish a new watering place.

The FAMOUS LOTTERY PRTzE.-It seems
that Mr.. Richard Penistan, who recently drew
the half million dollar prize in the Royal
Havana Lottery, is not left undisturbed in his
enjoyment of the proceeds OF the lucky ticket
Mr.. Elisha ID. Whitney, the well known brewer
Of phiadelphia. claims one half the prize. and
has attached some $l20,0O0, the undrawn
balance Of the prize, in the hands of Mr.. August
Belmont, of New York. The disposition made
By Mr.. Whitney shows that the latter bases
his claim upon services rendered" Mr.
Penistan resists the claim and AYERS that no
agreement of the kind was ever made, and that
Mr. Whitney is not entitled to any portion,
whatever Of the money drawn by him with the
By New York courts.

WHAT THEY THINK OF FRALAND.-The
second Baptist Sunday School, of Wilmington,
visited Fraland last week, and here's what one
correspondent says of that watering place
BY Gunter's chain the landing Is half mile
from the bathing houses. By the eye, it is a
quarter of a mile. To happy hearts, if the
day is pleasant, like it was yesterday, it is a
delightful walk, although the sand is little
soft The shade is much better than we ex-
pected to find it. The dry weather has
scorched the grass, and the crOquet grounds
are therefore not superior. But the bathing
is delightful. A sail boat is on hand and was
| in constant use. Some of our party who did
not care to take the trouble of dip, had their
much preferred baptism by sprinkling and
petey drenched as any enthusiast could wish.
This was the result of an inadvertance how
ever, and was the occasion of no little merri.
mcnt for the rest Of the day.
Another correspondent says 1t might be
made a splendid summer resort but the pro-
prietOr evidently doesn't care about spending
money on it or improving it in manner The
landing place is about half mile from the
house and visitors are compelled to wall
through deep loose sand to get there when
boardwalk could be laid down at little expense
The house wont accommodate more than
half-dozen guests and no pains have beer
taken to improve the grounds. But notwith
standing, nearly every one present determined
to enjoy themselves and they did so to thei
hearts content. Some by bathing, others sail
Ing and IN various ways amused themselves
and the excursion was voted by all hands

the Office at Milford by non.conductor that
happened to be in position, and passing out
through the Office window it exploded with a
terrific report in front of the Railroad depot.

The storm Of Friday last, which, in Phila-
delphia, was a succession of heavy thunder
showers, was accompanied in portions of
New Jersey, and in Montgomery county,
Pennsylvania, by a violent hail storm. This
storm passed from Montgomery county across
the Delaware, and through Burlington, Cam
den and Gloucester counties. 1t travelled
over but narrow path, being most violent at
HowellvilIe and other places in Montgomery
county, and at Riverton, Mt. Holly, Moores.
town, and in that neighborhood in New Jersey.
The hail stones were of large size, and did
great damage, destroying fruit trees. the crops,
and nearly everything else that they struck,
breaking window glass and killing poultry. In
the lower part of Gloucester county the storm,
having spent its fury in the preceding ravages
changed to rain, the hsil-stones that fell being
only small ones, continuing but few minutes
High winds accompanied this storm, blowing
of roofs and causing other damage.

A YOUNG LADY ATTEMPTS TO Drown
HERsELF.-While the Wilmington steamboat
Samuel H. FELTON, was on her downward trip
last Wednesday evening, when about midway
between Philadelphia and Chester lady Of
respectable appearance, apparently about
twenty five years of age, went deliberately to
the bow of the boat on the upper deck then
she crossed the railing, and was caught in the
attempt to leap overheard. Her movements
had excited the suspicion of gentleman Of
Wilmington on board the steamer, who took

THAT LIVELY LAwsUIT.-Last week we
spoke of lively lawsuit that was likely to
come off before the U. S. District Court
in Wilmington, over some canal boats
Collector Nolen charged the boats port entrance
license, and two of the captains refused to pay,
when their boats were put under guard until
they complied. After paying they entered
suit for illegal detention, recovery Of the
license, &c. Geo. G. GOrden has been re-
tanned as their council 1t seems, from a
recent decision in Baltimore, that the canal
boatmen have the right on their side. We
make the following extract from the Phila
Ledger in reference to the decision referred to:
Judge Giles, Of the L. S. District Court of
Maryland, has recently decided that under the
act of Congress of 1893, canal barges propelled
by horse power, and towed by tugs TO inland
ports. are not liable to pay tonnage dues and
license fees. The ground of the decision was
that, as the barges had no motive power OF
their own, they could not be considered
vessels. This opinion is important. as follow.

A SINGULAR AFFAIR.

The brig Ottawa, loaded with grind
stones was frozen in during the greater
part of the winter in the Bay Of
Funday, and after being abandoned by
her crew was boarded by five men who
at the risk of their lives and with
great hardship, brought her into the
port of st. John, N. B. The men left
their claims for salvage in the hands Of
two commissioners of wrecks, who
took care of the property and adver-
tised it for thirty days, as required by
law. No sign of any ownec could be
anywhere found, in spite of all the eff
forts made. The commission were
reluctant to sell the vessel until all
hope of finding the owner had disap-
peared. Tuesday night number of
men went quietly on board the Ottawa
locked the Waterman in the cabin, and
cut the hawser which moored her. The
steamer Albert came alongsides and
towed the brig out. The watchmaa
escaped through the cabin window and
went for aid, but before he returned the
vessels had gone. The matter has been
placed in the hands of the Government
who are making every effort to solve
the mystery. The brig is supposed to
have been taken to some American harb.
or, but who the parties who boarded her
were is un certain. The owners OF the
Ottawa, according to the American
register, are Messrs. Read g. Stevens.
The real owner, according to the British
Maritime Register for 1878, is Mr.. H. Ell
Read, of Windsor, N. S.; and this cores
ponds with the information obtained
at the Custom House. The ST.. john
Telegraph, which gives the above partic-
ulars, charaoterizes the affair as one of the
most high-handed oatrages ever perpet'
rated in St. John.

SAN SALVADOR.

The reports from San Salvador state
that the authorities still persist in re-
building the city on the same site, al
though the recent overthrow is the
eighth time the city has been destroyed
within $50 years. The only building
that stood the shocks without the least
injury was one erected Of timber, and
the impulse at present is to import tim
Der from California for the construction
of the new city. The Englishs visitors
consider it temptation of Providence
to rebuild the city on the same spot.
The crust below is mere hollow shell.
The ear placed close to the ground hears
a noise like running waters, and heavy
stone produces hollow sound. The
Indians would never build on this site.

Those who advocate the peace policy
have ever made the mistake of thinking
that the straight-haired Indian, as "a
child of nature" preserves all the gnile-
less beauty of mind which characterizes
children as we know them. The saVages
who SO cunningly planned the massacre
of Friday last, and so ruthlessly psrpe.
trated it, are as pretty specimens of in
fancy as four year old tiger. Like him
they cannot be tanned. The bars of, o
cage may keep him from mischief, if you
are content to feed him, but to let him
out in the farm yard after whetting his
teeth and singing hymns to him is an
experiment that can only end in death
