LETTER FROM BALTIMORE.
A Long Ride with smikes.

BALTIMORE, MD., October %, 1874.
Dear SPIRIT "A few days ago when in
New York, ran against Mr.. Smikes who
was intently watching an official dog catcher
trying to lasso 'Habby looking dog. Smikes
was even smiling ut the time. He was in
excellent humor. Said l, "Mr. Smikes, let's
60 some place."
''WhereH" said he.
ITO Baltimore, perhaps Virginia." re-
piled I.
We entered pOstoffce station, and he
wrote the following on postal card which he
sent to Mrs. s.:
"Deer p1: Tine agoing to baItitnour and

YOurD, EZEKIEL SMtKEs.n
We made bee-liue for Jersey City to take
the cars
suggested the propriety of providing our
selves with some fruit to eat in the cars.
Smikes is extremely good natured. he
bought two water melons, three cautaloupes,
bananas, grapes and peaches.
The conductor met him on the platform
and said:
What in fury are yer goin' ter do with
them?"
Smikes explained. No use. The railroad
company never allow passengers to make n
vegetable market OF Pullman car. Oh. no
Poor Srnikes left his vegetables and fruits
in New York
We had just seated ourselves comfortably
when Smikes began TO tell me of his bny-hood
Days in New York, to which listened with
open mouth and closed ears. At this juno
ture an accident insurance agent oam0 in and
commenced to bore Smikes about the neces-
sity of having an insurance policy.
n
one in the car was either asleep or terribly
angry. Smikes bore up like man who has
seen and decApiiated myriads Of agents. Thb
agent evidently telt the importance and peeu>
mary profit of his mission, for throwing his right
foot forward and pointing his index finger at
the indomitable Smikes, he ''thusly spAke :"

Glow much will yOur wife getif Jon break

"sl5, 5,OOO," said the agent.
"Well, replied Smikes, "I'll throw you ont
Of the window and thereby put fortune into
your wife pocket" The insbtapce man left.
While passing through DelaHare . country
chap got into the cars He asked 5mik kes To-
tell him about New York pic spoekets.
Smikes always illustrates, 80 pointing to

ter of the completion of the soldiers
monument, which stands, unfinished, in
the park Ii las at last been deterinin-
ed to ask the people of the county to
furnish the funds necessary for complat-
ing the work, by subscription. The
amount needed is not large, and the
people of old Hancock county can well
afford 10 give it. The money is to be
paid to Judge ID. J. CORY, II. p. GAGE
and WM. L. DAVIS, between now and
the 4th of July, 1879, TO pay for the fin
ished work Let all contribute, and in
that way show their gratitude to the
brave men who fell in the defense of the
old flag.

sis, which will be n great advantage
over the old plan of allowing them to
remain in the open air. \ substantial
fence is being built along the home

the people from running over the course
and lessen the chances for accidents

ty the duty of giving the Fair their ear

burglars took -. 20 in silver and a little
more r!.an 500 in fractional currency.

ing TO SO or Sl3. one Of the rings was

was an exceedingly bold one, rs there
were persons at home who lived only
three hundred yards from Mr. POwELL's.
On the same day the above robbery
occurred. the house Of Mr. JACOB Pow

clothes and about twenty-five dollars in
money taken. The thieves also stole
other articles valued at about thirty

these thefrs were committed by parties

our officers to keep a sharp look out for
the guilty parties, and bring them to
justice.
