WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCEf

Senator j. P. Jones with all his famil-
iarity with Hudibrasl could not find a
much greater difference between the Re-
publican and Democratic plank on the
tariff than the difference that exists be-
tween 'tweedle-dum and tweedle-dee."
As promised elsewhere, we reproduce
them side by side, for information:

Inaccessible Flames

New YORK, Oct pa fire broke out in
the hold of the steamship Amerique Of the
French line this morning. The fire de-
partment was summoned, but little head
way was made against the fire, as the
flames could not be reached. tits impos-

how the fire originated.
LATER-The fire on the Amerique has
been extinguished. The loss will be small.
The fire started among 800 bales of cotton
stored between decks. All the cotton wa
removed. The vessel in now ready TO sail.

We last week vcuturei the assertion
that on the evening Of the late Democratic
parade, the North East baud made better
music than the Elkton band. Upon thi.
the ElkJon boys join issue, and claim that
the members of their orgnniZ alton are much
further advanced in the art, and can render
music which the Nurtheasters cannot begin
To play. All of which we believe to be a
fact. Our assertion was simply that upon
the evening named the last named band
made Sweeter music than the other. No
doubt but that the pieces rendered by the
Elkton band We're more difficult. Those
rendered by the North East band were IA
miiiar airs which we always prefer to diff
cult ones that we do not know. We do not
pretend to say that the NOrtheasters ave
better musicians than the Elktonians
They are not nor could they he expected to
be- as they have not been organized so long
and besides the Elkton band has among its
members n number of old eXperieu sed play
ers. One thing in favor of the Nurtheasters;
they have much finer, newer Instruments,
and another thing which we did not know
at the time, and which helped them greatly
was That some OF The best players in the
r,lkton band assisted them that evening
Now we put it as fair proposition, if :hey
helped their rivals to make good music
they should not be put out at mention of
the fact.

building was Of frame, comparatively a
new one and was insured in the Cecil
Mutual Fire Insurance company. The
furniture was almost a total loss and
uninsured. Suspicion locs not rest upon
any one as the guilty party, as Mr.. Man

cause for wishing to harm him.

THANKSGIVING DAY.
Services in the Churches.

Thanksgiving day passed of very
( quietly. The bank, public offices, and
stores were closed, and the postofice Was
open only at mail time. Our streets
were very quiet, very few persons NOV
ing except those going to and returning
from church.
Union service by the congregations of
the Presbyterian and NJ. E. Churches, in
the first named church, when Rev. G. F.
Sheppard of the NJ. E. church preached
an able sermon to an excellent congrega-
ton.
In the evening at the Methodist Epis-
copal church, services commemorative of
the centennial of the organization of the
Methodiat church in America was held.
An address was delivered by w. J. Jones,
Esq, of the Elkton bar showing the pro-
gress of the church since it's organiza-
ton in 1884, referring specially to its ed
ucationa lwork. The address was an able
one, and exceedingly interesting, and we
hope to be able to give it entire on our
first page next week. it coming too late
for this weeks issue.
Mr.. Jones was followed by Rev. R. w.
Beers of the Presbyterian church, who
delivered brief but very beautiful ad-
dress. lie spoke of the peculiar qualifi-
cation or power of the Methodist church
for reaching the masses of the people.
Of its simplicity, and the zeal activity
and earnestness not only of its ministry
but also of its laity. He said it was
pleasant task to praise the Methodist
church. lie gloried in being a Presby-
terrain, but the spirit Observation-Disclosures
is not antagonism. He spoke of the
wonderful growth of the church, which
is now much greater than the whole ma
ton was in 1884 and it now includes one
third of the people of the country. His
address was listened to with wrapped at
tention upon the part of the audience
who were 50 pleased with it that they
unanimously rendered him a vote of
thanks at its conclusion. He was fol-
lowed by F. A. Ellis, Esq, president of
the educational society of the Whining
ton Conference who explained the OBJ
jects Of that society. This was followed
by the usual collection, and the congre
CATION was dismissed after singing the
hymn Am | a soldier of the cross" to
new music. During the evening some
most excellent music was rendered,
among other qnartette by Misses Lizzie
Merritt and Annie Pierson and Messrs.
John Davis and John NJ Terrell, and a
duett by Misses Clara Scott and Clara
Ricketts,, Master Eddie Hinchliffe pre-
sided at the organ. The opening prayer
was made by Mr.. Daniel Harvey and the
benediction pronounced by Rev. r. W.
Beers.

WHY Is IT SOP

Mr.. EDIToR:-It is said that the unfor-
three words which in all probability de-
feated Mr.. Blaine for the presidency, has
almost lost his mind. Why the utter
ances Of DR.. Burchard should prevent
any one from voting for Mr.. Blaine
cannot see. He may dislike Catholics,
bus Mr.. Blaine Goes not. There are
scores of Democrats right here in Cecil
co inty who hate a Catholic worse than
they d. a snake, and the writer of this
has heard them express themselves so,

RiOting Italians.

The Italian workmen ON the Newark
division of the new B. & o. railroad who
were swinded out of their wages by the
absconding contractors, Fitzgerald &
McGurgan, a short time ago, gathered
in body on Tuesday last expecting to
be paid their wages by the railroad
company as they had been promised, but
for some reason, because the books of
the contractors could not be found, We
understood, the money was not forth
coming and the men became boisterous,
and would not allow the new employees
to work, so the authorities at Whining
ton had to be called upon. Accordingly
the Sheriff was notified and requested to
send out posse to preserve order and
protect the newly hired employees. Ten
Deputy Sheritls were dispatched promptly
to the scene of the disturbance, and
when they arrived there they found the
strikers assembled on the summit of an
embankment. Chief Deputy Robert
| Chambers expostulated with the men.
I'm Italian named Christopher, the
leader of the gang, sprarg into the
woods, a few feet distant, and from an
ambushed position opened fire with a
revolver on the deputies. At the same
tme the strikers began to hurl stones.
Then the deputies used their weapons
! and compelled the rioters to reteat, The
,kirmish lasted ten minutes and resulted
in the wounding of several persons.
Deputy Sheriff Chambers had his head
badly cut and was shot in the arm.
Three wounded Italians were captured.
They are Raphael Lenora, shot in the
jaw; Singh Spolata, badly cut in the back
with knife, and Angelo before, slightly
injured. None of the wounds are con-
sidered dangerous. Thirty-two Italians
were arrested and taken to Wilmington.
