EMANCIPATION CELEBRATION. =
The colored people of this town and
vicinity celebrated the 18th anniver-
sary of the Proclamation of Emanci-
patton on Wednesday last by a pro-

Western Maryland Cornet Band, of
Cumberland, was present in attrac-

lively strains. Several appropriate
banners were displayed, and the day
was everything that could be desired

HE Borden Shalt and Midlothian
Combination picnic took place at
Wright's Crossing Tuesday. The main
interest of the affair centered in the
foot-race between Thomas O'Malley,
Of Pompey Smash, and John McAllis-
ter, of Borden Shaft. 1t may never
be known exactly how much money
changed hands on the result, but the
amount ran up into the hundreds.
The partisans of each stood well to
their man. Al four o'clock p. m. the
race took place. At the first dash
O'Malley slid ahead, but his nimble
adversary passed him and won, to
the great delight of his friends.
James McAlister does the affair up
in verse as follows:
You sporting boys, come, listen,
And your preiudices disband;
/ will tell you of an event
That happened in Maryland
OF O'Malley and McAllister;
i he truth OF them will speak,
And better runners can't be found
This day on Georges Creek.
On the 2lst of September,
These heroes toed the scraI CHI;
O'Malley viewed McAllister
And thought he'd met his match.
When the pistol was fired
O'Malley made DASH
And cheer that rent the air
Came from the boys of Pompey Smash.
But Borden Shafts young hero
1t little daunted him
For he had been well posted
By his trainer, poet jim"
When fifty yaros were covered
They were nearly side by side,
And down the course with mighty force,
Like magic seemed to glide.
I smiled as did gaze
Upon the boys of Pompey Smash
They locked SO bewildered
When they saw they'd lost their cash.
So, success to you, McAllister,
Who ran at such pace;
He made them grin that lost their tin,
And nobly won the race.
But to our friends at Pompey
We harbor no dislike;
So success to brave O'Malley, too,
And his trainer, 'little Mike"
@. W. Oder won the first prize at
the shooting match and A. Cline
second.
