How we Were not Mobbed on a Visit &c
Elsmore last week, and q few Of the
Things we Saw and Heard.
Last Saturday was the day set apart
by the Settlers Protective Association
for unveiling a monument TO the men-
DRY of James Ard, one of the leading
members of their organization who
died last spring. After short ceremos
mics at the grave, it was intended to
adjourn TO the grove at Elsinore school
house and spend the day in listening
to speeches, music, etc. Partly to keep
Boyle company-whow was quite anx-
ious to be there-partly to see that part
of the county, partly to see what man
ner of men made up the League, part
ly to see the spirit that breathed
through their speeches, and partly to
see if they would mob US, We conclud-
ed to attend.
Most Of our readers are no doubt ia
miliar with the country We passed
through to reach Elsinore school house
describing it. For twelve miles the
road led directly east, past farm houses
for the most part neat and commodious
ali freshly painted too. which is
about as good a sign of prosperity rs
We know of-past long stretches of
corn, past a few stubble fields and
some patches of prairie. Then we
reached the farm with the poplars ris-
ing like sentinels out of the hedge
low that bounds it-Norton's, we be-
Heye-and turned south past more
corn, past great fields of milIet and
brooR corn. But the soil is whittier
here we notice and the corn Doesn't
look as thrifty az it did on the other
road. And instead Of houses and sta
bles and orchards, we find only shan
ties that remind one of the Kansas OF
fifteen years ago. And this-about
half past eleven o'clock-is Elsinore

BY Universal Accord,

AYERS CArHARTrc PILLS are the best
of all purgatives for family use. They
are the product of long, laborious, and
successful chemical investigation. and
their extensive use, by physicians in
their practice, and by all civilized ma
tons, proves them the best and most
ef!ectual purgative Pill that medical
science can devise. Being purely veg
etable no harm can arise from their
use. and being sugar-coated. they are
pleasant to take. In intrinsic value
and curative powers no other Pills
can be compared with them: and every
person, knowing their virtues, will
employ them, when needed. They
keep the system in perfect order, and
maintain in healthy action the whole
machinery of life. Mild, searching and
effectual, they are especially adapted
to the needs of the digestive apparatus,
arrangements OF which they prevent
and cure, if timely taken. They are
the best and safest physic to employ
for children and weakened constitu-
tions, where mild but etfectual
csthartic is required.
For sale by all druggists.

Death of DIR. Francis Butler.

DR.. Francis Butler died at his residence in
this city on Thursday afternoon last, at 3
o'clock, after an illness of several months.
DR.. Butler was born in Hartford county, Nd,
April Is, 1909, and was son of Thomas
Butler. His mother maiden name was Jane
McAtee. He was educated at Archer Acad
emy, near Belair, after which he studied med
icine with DR.. James Montgomery, of Hartford
county. In 1884 he graduated at the Mary
land University, and formed a co-partnership
with his preceptor which existed for two years,
DR.. Montgomery retiring. DR.. Butler con-
tinued in practice in his native county until
1856 lit being large and laborious, extending
in a circuit of nearly Is miles,, when he pur
chased the Glover Hill estate in Finksburg
district, this county, where he resided until
the spring of 1865, when he removed to West
minister, and has resided here ever since. In
1886 DR.. Butler was elected to the Legislature
from Hartford county by the Wings, receiving
the highest majority given to the ticket. After
the dissolution of the Wing party he united
with the Democratic, and continued an active
and energetic worker in its ranks. In re-
Iigion DR.. Butler was a Catholic, being a
member of St. Johns Church, this city. As
a physician he was greatly esteemed, and as a
citizen he was liked by all. He leaves
widow, two married daug hters-Mrs VIM. B.;
Thomas and Mrs John A. Macintosh-and
two sons. His funeral will take place on
Monday morning next, at st. Johns Church,
at 10 o'clock.

Sam,s Creek Items,

1t is now discovered that much of the fruit
is falling off, being injured by the late frost.
The wheat and clover is heading out very
nicely, though the late wheat in places seems
to be very much affected by the fly. Replant-
ing corn seems to occupy the attention of most
farmers at the present time in our section, the
corn having failed to come up properly, the
seed corn being unsound from some cause or
other. A farmer living in our valley says he
never had corn to come up better than it did
this spring. He says he makes it practice
to pick out his seed corn in the fall while
lofting and piles it up in some dry place,
and then there is no danger of it heating or
freezing. Good seed corn will seldom fail to
come up.
Quite number of customers met at the
Linganore Tannery on last Tuesday to receive
their money for bark deliveries at said tam
merry, and were paid So per ton.
The mason work of Jesse I. Wilson's new
house is now about done. Albinaus Poole,
contractor.
Robert Koontz, who was last week bitten
by copperhead snake, is now much better.
One of our farmers sold from three-fourths
of an acre of timber SG8 worth of bark and
will sell $50 worth of railroad ties from the
same piece of timber.

The grand jury reported that it had exam
ined lis witnesses, but had found only 10
presentments, and stated that the large num-
Der of witnesses had to be examined because
of the large number of unnecessary arrests and
because of the failure of magistrates to give
careful and impartial investigation to the cases
when before them. In the report it was also
stated that the jail had been visited and every
thing found in good condition except the floor
of the Jail, which was broken and damp and
consequently very unhealthy, and 1t was re-
commended that the County Commissioners
have this part of the Jail put in good repair
