RAILROAD MEETING AT CHURCHvMLE.-A
largely attended meeting of property holders
and Others interested in the location through
Hartford county of the Philadelphia extension of
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad was held in
Hanson's Hall, Churchville, Wednesday after
chair, with Mr. j. Frank Reasin Vice President;
David Hanson and F. W. Baker Secretaries
Mr.. Johns II. ,Janney, Of the committee by
whom the meeting was called stated that its
object was TO ascertain If inducements could be
offered to the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company to locate their new road through Ilar-
ford county on Il line north of their recent sur
vey, so as to afford nearer railroad facilities to
large section Of Hartford county now without
them and which would not be benefited by
another railroad near the Philadelphia, Wal
mington and Baltimore road. lie snid that the
committee, consisting of himself, Messrs. r.
Mr.. Spencer, second Vice President of the Bal
timore and Ohio Company, who has control Of
the location of the new railroad. The COM
mttee gave him q statement of the probable
on route passing near Churchvlle. Mr. Spen
Ger had asked them TO see what could be done
in securing the right. and the good will
of the people of the section desiring the railroad
In accordance with Mr.. Speneer's suggestion
this meeting was called. Now the question is,
The aegis & intelligencer. [volume] (Bel Air, Md.) 1864-1923, 1883-02-23

do we want the railroad We have pretty,
fertile and healthy country, but we need a
railroad. During the last forty years several
routes for railroads have been surveyed through
this region. For the old Maryland Central the
right-of-way had been given, 100000 subscribed
and 5000, 600 of the bonds of the road endorsed
by the city of Baltimore, but the project failed
The Baltimore and Ohio only asks the right of
way and your good will There is therefore a
chance for a railroad near our farms, and if
we don't avail ourselves of that chance may
never have railroad as long as we live.
Major A. Nj. Hancock suggested the difficulty
of making demonstration until it is known
where the road is to be located, but was willing
to aid in any way TO secure nearer railroad faci
| lities
DIR. j. b. Webster thought the meeting re.
presented large portion Of the county through
which the road is likely TO pass.
Charles A. McGaw said those present should
not only sign the right, of-way but also subscribe
to help TO pay those who might be injured by the
road passing through their farms or near theil
buildings. He was prepared to furnish 81 ,0O(
for this purpose.
Mr.. Janney said that every farm or truck
patch crossed by the railroad would be increas
ed in value The railroad is located to the Gun
powder river, but rights-ofway should be OBJ
tanned through scope of country four or five
miles wide between the Gunpowder and thu
Susquehanna
Mr.. George +. Silver asked if any farmer pre-
sent had considered the difference between haul
ing two miles and six miles to a railroad
they had railroad within two miles he woult
guarantee that they would have as much haul
ing TO do as they now have at six miles, becaus,
they would have more TO haul. On his motion
committees were appointed to solicit rights of
way from the Gunpowder to the Susquehanna
The chairman, Mr.. Webster, spoke of the in
crease in value of land by railroads and said h,
would cheerfelly give fhc right. of way through
his farm
Mr.. Charles James also made some remarks
and Mr. Janney read letter from DR.. Davit
Harlan, offering the right oiway through hi
property.
Mr.. X. Harris Archer moved that those pre-
sent be invited to sign the right, ofway, and tn
following signatures were obtained:

ADJOURNMENT OF THE GRAND JURY.-The
IIavre de Grace, was foreman, adjourned on
Saturday. having been in session only six days.
They examined 3G witnesses and found only
seven true bills. The jury deserves credit not
only for the promptncss with which they
dispatched the business before them, but
also for breaking through the old.establishcd
custom of dining at the Almshouse at the eX.
pense of the county. 1t has been the custom
for many years for the grand jury, at each recur.
ling term of court, to visit the Almshousc in a
body, before the close of their session. The
ostensible purpose of these visits is for an in
specton of the public property. The oyerseer,
however, is always notified and provides good
dinner, with the usual accompaniment ofliquors
and segars--all at the expense ofthc county-the
cost of which, with the jurymens per diem,
can not fall short of $780, The late Grand Jury,
as will be seen by their report, declined to pay
the customary visit, and call attention to the
fact that the Almshouse buildings and farm are
under the direct control and Supervision of the
County Commissioners, who visit it at regular
intervals.
The Grand jury renew recommendation FIRE.

There are now go insane persons boarded at st.

hospitals, at cost to the county of $3.50 each
per year, amounting to SO, $50.

ThC Portable Electric Light.

OF all the attempts which have been made of
late to utilize the wonderful resources of electric
ity for domestic purposes, none have been more
strkingly successful, and few are so interesting
to Il wide range of readers, as the new invention
of the Portable Electric Light Company. whose
mandatory, at ~ Water Street. is now scene
of the greatest activity both day and night. The
instrument from which this company takes its
name is a small and compact piece of mechanism,
occupying space only five inches square, and it
can lie readily carried from room TO room, 1t
weighs hut Ave pounds ii is so constructed as
to furnish electricity whenever desired for large
number of important and constantly recurring
domestic uses. When provided with simple win
dow, safe or door attachments it serves as an I'M
failing and startling burglar alarm, the trespasser
being confronted with light and bell instantly and
is equally adapted for the ordinary uses of a call
bell. As lighter. it is perfect, being capable of
producing instantaneous light in any part of the
house, by adjustments furnished by the compa-
ny. 1t can also be attached to medical galvanic
coil by which a powerful current of electricity
can be conveyed. Many prominent business men
are interested in the company, which was incor-
porated under the laws of Massachusetts, and is
enjoying already a most gratifying success. Or
ders or inquiries should be addressed to the bust
ness office of the company, No. - Water Street.
We understand that this instrument is sold at the
low price of FIVE dollars for the lighter; ten dol
