A freight train going east entered

is strengthened by the fact that adj

and James A. Garfield, President of
the United States is dead. BY the
hand of fanatic of the most disre-
putable surroundings, whom it would
be stretch of charity to call mad
man, this great and good President,
this fond husband, this loving father,
this noble gentleman has been slain.
Strange that the bullets of brave foe
men should have in fair fight spared
him for such fate. Sad, indeed, is
it that such a glorious being, so use
full, so powerful, so manly, so excel
lent. should become the victim of so
vile a reptile. We bow to the dispen-
Stations of God and question them
not. To Him we leave vindicatien
and the ends of justice. The heart
of the South bleeds for the stricken
mother and wife and children of the
President. Upon his dead body we
lay an immortelle. wreath of truest
sorrow and regret.
Innocent of the murder of Lincoln,
the South suffered long years of ago
ny and persecution for another's
crime. Innocent of the assassination
of Garfield, the South, fearless of the
future and forgetful of the past,
stands tearfully beside the relics OF
President and prays the storm tossed
spirit shall have the rest of the RICH
teous and a sanctuary in that eternal
heaven, where, lulled to slumber,
grief fOrgets to mourn.

A number of ministers and laymen
of this State, among whom may be
mentioned Revs. Masden and Ryan,
Of Wheeling, have lately purchased
nearly 1000 acres of land on the line
of the B. & O. r. r., between Oak
lad and Deer Park, which it is their
intention to convert into summer
resort akin to Ocean Grove and
Chatauqua. The property will be
Immediately laid off into lots, streets,
avenues, drives, parks, lakes and the
like, and one large space will be set
apart for camp meeting purposes,
within which a wigwam capable OF
holding 1000 to 10000 people will
be erected. A large lake for boating,
fishing and ice purposes will be made
at once in order to secure a supply OF
ice for next summer. The land is
very high, being on top of the noun
tains and it will be one Of the most
delightful resorts in the country.
The building lots will be 50x150 feet,
and limited number only will be
sold for 800 each, conditioned, how
ever, that cottage be erected within
a year. Large hotels will be erected
for the accommodation of guests, and
all the attractions of successful sum-
mer resorts will be introduced. The
railroad company enters heartily into
the project and will extend every ia
cility to its success.

nusy Preparations. Engage
memt OF the Famous @si ore,
Marine and Other Ban he-
mark ably Brilliant Spectacle
Promised.

Every man, woman and child in
Baltimore appears to be growing in
terested in the Oriole, and anxious to
contribute something toward making
it the most memorable success ever
known in the country. That it will
be, now passes without argument.
The Oriole will be incomparably finer
in every way than last years celebra-
ton, and to the general public will
have more interest in an hour than
that had in q day. Not but what
the Sesqui-C Centennial was a perfect
and unparalleled success, but it was
to certain extent local gloritica-
ton of deep interest to Baltimoreans
and of more or less attractiveness to
strangers. On the other hand the
Mardi Gras Pageant will possess re-
markable attraction for all the guests
as we'll as the citizen. It's features
will be of general character and the
effects produced will be brilliant and
dazzling in the extreme. There will
be fully three miles of the most bril-
liant tableaux of majestic proper
tions and exquisite construction.
The subject portrayed will not be
disclosed until the night of the pa
geant, lending a mystic character to
it and increasing the interest. Those
who have never witnessed Mardi
Gras can form no conception of its
splendor and beauty. The novelty
of having it under hundreds of cleo
trio lights will greatly enhance the
effect and carry the beholder to the
fullest realization of the most vivid
Imagination of the wonders Of the
Arabian Nights. The musical adj
juncts to the pageant promise of
themselves to be worth journey to
hear.
AT the head of the pageant will be
the famous Gilmore Band from New
York in magnificent uniform and
numbering sixty-fve of the best mu-
sicians of the Metropolis. The cele-
brated Marine Band of Washington
has been engaged as have. all the
Baltimore bands and those of ada
cent cities. In addition to taking
part in the Oriole pageant Gilmore's
Band will give a grand open-air con-
cert on Wednesday afternoon and
play for the Mask Ball and Carnival
in the evening. What, with the re-
ception to the French visitors and the
great military, fire and civic parade,
Monday the 10th; the Mardi gras
Tuesday the 18th; and the Carniva
and other features on Wednesday the
18th; the Baltimore Oriole will GER
tainly eclipse any similar celebration
known in the United States. The b
d o has not only made rate of one
half fare from all stations in its main
line, divisions and branches, but is
making extensive preparations to af
ford every accommodation for al
who attend.

President Garfie1d's Death.

President Garfield is dead. The
sad event occurred at Long Branch
on Monday night at 1875. Grave
apprehensions were entertained by
physicians and attendants during the
day, but death came suddenly and
deprived the country of its chief
executive officer, though it relieved
James A. Garfield of his suffering.
The people were at least partially
prepared for the news, still it was at
that time unexpected and cast a
gloom over the nation.
The strong frame and stronger
courage of the patient. while they
excited the hope and admiration of
the world were not sufficient to ward
off the grim reaper and prevent the
work of the assassin from being
accomplished.
While the people mourn for the
dead President, there need be no
apprehension for the safety or stabil-
ity of the Government. 1t still lives
and will continue to live while Amer
lean blood courses through the veins
of its subjects.
In the Affections of . the hour all
animosities were forgotten and the
people united without regard to poll
tics or party in petitions for the res
toration of the President and the
safety of the country.
In our own town upon receipt of
the news, business was suspended,
schools dismissed and the place pre-
scented the appearance of Sunday.
Flags draped in mourning were dis
played in all parts of town, the pillars
supporting the Court House portico
were wrapped with mourning goods,
the band appeared upon the streets
with draped instruments and mufiled
drums. Everybody moved about
with subsued expression and a
quiet air as though personal friend
had died.
