Maryland is one of the States where
the Democratic party is in sad need
of harmony. 1t is split into three
factions. each of which is anxious to
control the organization. A govern
or is to be elected this year, and I'M
ion or the appearance OF it is recog
nized as necessary is the Democracy
is to continue in control of the State.
Governor Hamilton has pursued such
an independent course and shown so
much disregard of the wishes of the
Democratic bosses that he has no
prospect of a denomination ifhe ish-
es one. With proper organization
and work the Republicans could make
such an inroad upon the Democratic
majority as to place Maryland in the
list of doubtful States in 1894.--Ne,O

The Death of an Insane Man.

John Michael, aged 26 years. fiving
on his fathers farm, between Mount
Savage and Frostburg, Allegany Co.,
was taken to the Jail in Cumberland
Sunday while under the influence of
an opiate given by DR.. J. j. Jones, of
Frosthurg, to quiet the nerves. Mich
aels was insane, the arrangement be-
ing caused by the kick of horse
some three weeks ago, and becoming
vicious. the morphine was given him
hypodermically. He did not awake
from his slumbers Sunday night, and
when the Sheriff went to awake him
Monday morning he was dead. The
amount of morphine given was one
eight of a grain. A coroner's jury
Monday night rendered verdict of
death from lung and brain disease,
basing their verdict upon the testi-
mony of physicians who made post
norton examination.

NERVOUSNESS.

The moment there is danger of i'm
pairment of the mind from excessive
nervous exhaustion, or where there
exists forebodings of evil, desire for
solitude, stunning and avoiding COM
pany, vertigo and nervous debility,
or when insanity has already taken
place, Per,0ad and Mdndlin should be
implicitly relied on. But it is never
well to wait so long before treatment
is commenced. The early symptoms
are loss of strength, softness of the
muscles, dim or weak sight, peculiar
expression of the face and eyes, coated
tongue, with impaired digestion or
in others, certain powers only are
lost, while they are otherwise enjoy
ing comparatively good health. In
all these PernaG and Mda0lin should
at once be taken.

1t Is with great pleasure that ! in
form your readers that Miss Jennie
Smith was here Monday and decided
to erect her cottage on lot 816, near
the restaurant Miss Jennie's mother
and other members Of her family ex-
pect to be here by the first of April
and make this their permanent home.
Persons wishing to aid in the erection
of this christian home can do so by
purchasing her books which are plac-
ed in the hands of Mr.. j. A. Enlow.
Several copies have been sold al
ready.
This certainly would bea good time
for all concerned to petition for coun-
ty roads leading to this place. so that
the country can be better developed,
and the variety of wants more read
lily supplied to this market. There
could be splendid road made with
but little cost to connect Deer Park
and Oakland with Oakland Avenue,
from the Lake., which would run
through Mr.. Gordon's land, between
d. e. Ofutt's and Mrs. Stotelmeyer's

Maryland Sunday School Union.

This very useful institution held
Its annual meeting in Baltimore on
Tuesday, the Goth. and reelected Rev.
j. M. Davis Vice President for Gar
rett county. The reports of the Off
GERS showed wonderful increase in
the Sunday School work. 1t was de-
cided to detail a missionary for labor
In Garrett and Allegany counties this
spring and summer, and Rev. l.. D..
Heron was detailed for the purpose.
During the latter part of last summer
Rev. Geo. H. Koch. State Mission
airy, took trip through portions of
Garrett and Allegany for the pur-
pose of learning the condition of Sun
day School work. He also did con-
siderable mission work in neglected
fields. Rev. Mr.. Heron will probably
visit Garrett in April. The Garrett
County Convention will this year
take place in Deer Park.

and connect where the Deer Park
and Hotel roads fork. Another to
connect the HooppoIe and Deer Park
roads, to start somewhere between
David Elbows and Clark Deberry's,
and to come near to Mr.. Andrew
Shartzer's. These two short pieces
of road would be of great value to a
large scope of country. Our intelli-
gent Commissioners can see at a
glance the necessity of this improve
ment. and l have no doubt the re-
quest will be granted if made by the
proper persons.
A. r, Sperry is offering at cost his
entire stock of dry goods, notions,
stocking yarn, white and coIored,

Accident Items.

"The after supper club has been
holding regular meetings this winter.
The Secretary will no doubt furnish
you with full proceedings, Leonard
Graymiller, ESQ.,, President. The
discussions take wide range.
Mr.. Joel Diehl has advertised his
personal property for sale and will
open general store soon at Engles
Mills.
Fred. Reese is preparing to build
an addition to his house and will
open first class shoe store in the
spring.
George Uphold has rented his farm
and comes to town with his family.
There was big crowd at spelling
school Friday evening at Vests
school, S. X. WEIGH teacher.
Mr.. Henry Hinebaugh has been to
Pennsylvania on a visit for several
weeks.
Glad to hear through the REPUB-
IICAN from our old friends Charlie
Frazee and John Mosser. We wish
you all kinds of success, boys. We
lately noticed several photographs of
our friend John and wife. and from
them should judge that the west is
using them kindly.
Mr.. Jacob Miller, a son of Melchior
]. Miller, of this place, will soon
graduate at Concordia Theological
Seminary, st. Louis, Mo. One year
more will complete his course of nine
years. Mr.. Miller is thorough elias
steal scholar, being perfectly at home
in FIVE languages, German, English,
Latin, Greek, and Hebrew. Mr..
Miller preached here very acceptably
last summer and also has preached in
Baltimore, Richmond, Va, and st.
Louis, Mo.
Mrs. j. E. Stouffer is quite i'll.
The general opinion seems to he
that the weather is most too nice for
the time ofyear. We notice the warm
sun has started vegetation, clover and
lilac buds more particularly peeping
out prematurely.
Our teacher, Miss Allie Swalp, was
lately home on visit.
We have not heard of any new
sugar being made this year, but no
doubt we are away behind the times
on the sugar question. Nothing like
new sugar cakes and maple taffy, to
our mind.
Mr.. Thomas Wiley. who Is now
living on the Rally farm, which he
has purchased, is making extensive
improvements. He has built fine
new house and is preparing to build
a large bank barn. Mr.. Wiley has a
magnificent sugar orchard, and in a
! few years will have, to our mind, one
of the best places in the county.

Abraham Myers, of York county,
Pa, a young man who several years
ago lost both hands by the prema-
ture explosion of blast, is quite q
successful sportsman. His gun is a
breech-loader, and he loads it with
his mouth. He goes out with his
gun strapped to the stumps of his
arms, aims at the game. pulls the
trigger with his mouth, and generally
brings down his game. Thus far he
has shot this season eighteen squirrels
and FIVE wild pigeons. He also
writes readily and legibly, holding
the pen between the stumps of his
arms.
