Wife Beating and Attempted Elopement.

A week or two ago a well ll-dressed and
gentlenanly- looking man and lady arrived
at the railroad station in North East, and
at once set about looking for a boarding
place, stating that he and his wife desired
to spend 4 term in the country during the
hot season. He gave the name of William
II. Hamilton, and it was understood that
the couple had been but recently married.
They succeeded in getting board in the
family of Mr.. Hiram Shallcross, an old citi-
zen of the town, and settled down to enjoy
themselves. The couple both appeared to be
sportively inclined, each of them having
pistol, with which they frequently prac-
ticed.
In the family of Mr.. Shallcross there is Il
young woman, a fair and buXon lass, in-
nocent and unsophisticated by reason of
slight contact with the wicked world. Upon
and attentions, and very quickly won her
affections.
The wife of the gay Lathario becoming
aware of the intimacy existing between her
liega lord and the young lady, on Saturday
last, in the presence of the family charged
the couple with their Illicit love. creating a
row such as is seldom seen in a family
circle. The result of the ordinations was,
that Hamilton waded into Mrs. Hamilton,
and then and there administered n corporal
rebuke, of such n nature as to completely
overcome her, in other words he walloped
her. The same day, and while trouble yet
reigned in Warsaw, the faithless husband,
accompanied by his dupe, the young miss,
quietly made their way to the railroad sta
ton, apparently with the intention of TAX
ing the train for some far away spot, where
cruel wives and meddling relations would
not interfere with their love.
The wife, however, was too smart for
them, for getting wind of their movements,
she provided herself with stout rawhide
and followed them, with the intention of
having her recreant husband arrested and
of cowhiding the young woman. Friends,
however, interposed, and induced her to
forcgo the latter part of the programme,
but to execute the former. She then swore
battery, and before the train came along
that was to bear the loving couple away to
love and happiness, he was in the hands of
an officer of the law. Not being able to
produce security for his appearance at
court, he was committed to Jail, where he
was lodged the same day. He remained
there until the beginning of the week, W hen
he managed to secure the necessary bond,
$500, and was released. The young and
foolish girl returned to her friends, it is to
be hoped, Il wiser if not better girl. This
case will be heard at September term of
court.

Base Ball.

On Saturday last the Elkton Club Wis
tied Newark, and were defeated by IL
battery of hired professionals, backed up
by what the ElktOnans left of the New
ark Club some time ago. 1t is the opin-
ion of everybody that the EIkton boys
can beat any local nine from Newark,
and it is clear that the Newarkers think
so, too, or they would not have resorted
to the underhand work of procuring out
side help. The Elktonians have chal-
lenged them for another game, but they
have not sand enough to accept.
ELKTON VS.. BRADY SENATE.
The ''Brady Senate crack organi-
zation from New Castle, Del, defeated
the Elkton boys in this town on We'd
nesday last by score of 12 to II. The
game was close, and tie at the end of
the eighth inning. The Elktonians out
batted and out fielded their opponents,
but lost the game through deficient base
running. Shockley and Price each made
a good fly-catch. f. Morgan made a
beautiful double play on swift line ball
Bratton led at the bat and made the
longest hit Of the day, with Price good
second. The Senators played WE'LL and it
would be unjust to mention any particu-
lar players.

contract required the work to be COM
pleted in the year 1888, the extent of it
being about SO, 900 cubic yards of ma
terlal. Study was given to the location
of jetties for regulating the flow of the
water, with view to permanence Of
depth in the channel, it having been
shown that dredging gives but tempo
rary relief to navigation. This study re
suited in project for these jetties or
regulating works at a cost of 100000.
lie thinks the Use Of .etties at this point
is positively Indispensable, because a
dredged channel will certainly fill up in
one or two years. Much objection is
made by the large capital and population
interested in the fisheries to the placing
of regulating works, rs they would GER
tainly interfere seriously with the nets.
He thinks it is question for Congress
to determine whether at once to appro-
pirate 100000 for those regulating
works, to be put in to the detriment of
the fishery interest, or to appropriate
$50, 900 annually for dredging. The esti-
mate, $4,000, includes 500, 900 for the
jetties and SEQ, 600 for dredging. There
was no appropriation for the improve
ment of the North East river in 1878.
An appropriation of $4,000 was made
for the Elk river. No expenditure was
deemed necessary until January, 1883,
when the old dyke was found SO decayed
as to require removal. A resurvey of the
river was made later, and it was found
that more dredging was necessary for the
accommodation of vessels. An old crib
work near Frenchtown will also be re-
moved. These operations will exhaust
the available balance. He makes no es-
innate for the present year. Work will
begin early in August and be pushed un-
til the appropriation is exhausted.

BAY VIEW ITEMS.

The frequent storms which have oc-
cured during the last few days, have
retarded the work of hauling in wheat,
many of our farmers are shocked to find
their grain sprouting.
The wife and daughter o. Rev. G. T.
COchcll, formerly of this place, now of
Westminster, Md, are visiting friends
here
a lady while taking a ramble On Mon
day last, involuntarily invaded the domi-
cile of family of yellow jackets. She
is now under tine doctors care. We hope,
how ever, that nothing serious will en-
sue.
AT the close of the present sultry days,
our streets are rendered very attractive,
by the young ladies, who come out and
gather in groups, to admire the passers
by, or themselves perambulate up and
down, arm-in-arm, to be viewed from
afar off by wistful, but bashful young
men. Here may be seen all types of the
sex, from the angular ancient maiden,
with artificial complexion, down to the
silvery voiced Miss who has not vet doff-
ed short dresses.
Great excitement prevails amoug the
many competitors for the prize pumpkin,
to be exhibited at the coming Elkton
fair. Each one guarding his vines with
jealous care, and taking an occasional
peep at his neighbours plants, to see what
progress they are making. Our friend
Simpson is unfortunate, his vines being
greatly injured by beetles. +. w.
Mahony, last years champion, is again
in advance, and expects to grow the
"biggest pumpkin To encourage
these pumpkin growers, we add the fol-
lowing:
My village it's of thee,
Sweet lind of liberty,
OF thee sing;
Land where grey boards are dyed,
Land of the gar'lner's pride;
From every sloping side,
Let pumpkins spring.
In consequence of the great demand
for men and teams. by the contractors of
the Il. Il .. Railroad. our village is pret-
ty generally deserted. Never since the
days of the California gold fever, has
there been such rush to one place. The
works present quite an animated appear
ance when the men are engaged at their
various duties. Conspicuous among the
other workmen, we noticed the stalwart
form of Matt hard at work, with bare
arms, and his ruddy face proiusely bath
ed with prespiration. To him and his re-
nowned team of "Jumbo" and clan
nah " belong the honor of turning the
first furrow in the work of grading and
woe to the stump, or other object that
stands in his path; for tbs said of Hannah
that she has attained theart of using her
hinder pedal extremities, with dexteri-
ty and precision, as yet unapproached by
any of her species.
And now dear Who, being warned by
the frowning looks which greet us on
every side, We will lay aside our pen and
retire from the literary field, lest we be
speedily annihilated by some former
friend, whose doings we have good hum
oredly given away. Adieu, DUDE.

improving our town, but if the bridge is
put up, at the proposed height, all our hopes
will be destroyed"

Mr. Touchstone said he had no idea
Mr.. Woodall, of the firm of William +.
Woodall u Co., ship builders, of this city,
said that it was possible, at Il cost of $40 for
each vessel to rig it in such manner that
the tophlast could be lowered when passing
under the bridge, in fifteen III inutes.
Mr.. Jacob Tome said he hoped that the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad Company.
with its $4,000, 900 surplus capital would
build bridge high enough to admit any
vessel to pass under it, or else have draw.
Mr.. Williams then gave a memoranda of
the number of vessels passing through the
Philadelphia, Wilmington and Baltimore
Gompany's draw. He said that in 1881,
! ,l54 vessels passed through both ways; in
1882 1,5l4, and so far this year 722 had pass
ed through, and the heaviest months were
August, September and October
H. G. Nesbtt, of Port Deposit, said tn
the building of the bridge would be an out
rage, and would crush Port Deposit.
Mr.. Cowan said that the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad Company proposed to change
the plan of the bridge and make it 80 feet,
and put tug at the bridge to draw vessels
through, 80 that they will not lose any time,
that to make the bridge 10 feet as these
gentlemen want, would not only double the
cost of the bridge, but jeopardize the lives
of millions of passengers yearly. Why"
said he, " take the Wheeling bridge case.

water commorce than in New York, have

my experience with the Champion Binder, !
can only say that ] was unfortunate in get
ting hold OF one that did not seem properly
adjusted, though we had good satisfaction
with Il for one day, cutting eight acres in FIVE
hours by the watch. IL binds more solid
sheaf thaa any other binder have seen. The
bundle is round and compact, whereas all
other binders have seen make bundle hav-
ing sscavity in one side which makes the bum
dleget looser alter being handled.
The machine is well made In every respect.
The material seems TO be OF the best quality
The raising and lowering OF the cutter bar is
all desire. The machine will cut and the
elevators deliver the worst lodged grain we
have bad. We ere looking forward TO the COM
ing harvest with great deal OF satisfaction,
believing, as we do, that when the binder At.
tachment Is properly adjusted It will be the
best machine, taking all things together, that
is yet made Very truly,
