Motion for a New Trial. On Wednesday
last, counsel for the Philadelphia, Wilmington
and Baltimore Railroad Company made motion
in the Circuit Court of this county, for trial
in the case of that company VS.. John W. Rice,
who was last week awarded $4,000 damages for
being elected from one of the company's cars
The grounds for the new trial being asked are,
that the evidence did not justify such an exorbi-
tant verdict. 1t will be remembered that Rice
sued the company for 1000.

Supposed Horse Thief Arrested.-The
Hanover, Pa, Herald of I'd inst, says: ga young
man working in this neighbornood under the name
of Charles Howard, arrived here yesterday morn
ing, riding young horse which he proceeded to
offer for sale or trade at various places in town.
Finally, suspicious being aroused, the horse was
detained at Smiths livery stable by officer Kuhn,
when the young man giving different name from
that under which he was formerly known, said
the horse the property of his uncle living near
Towsontown, Md, who had loaned the animal to
him to ride to Hanover that his uncle owed him
money, and would not pay the debt; he was about
to dispose of the horse to geteven with him. The

W. Yelott, of Long Green Valley, celebrated their
crystal wedding on Saturday evening last. They
received number of useful and ornamental pres

time. When they finally summoned up enough
courage to open it, it was found to be about half
a dozen boxes, one within the other, the last one
being filled with finely broken glass. This pres

Advertising Sales.-Persons contemplate
ing making public sales should remember that it
will be vastly to their advantage to advertise
them in the newspapers, in addition to having at
tractive posters printed A few dollars saved in
advertising may take off several hundred dollars
from the aggregate sales, and economic and short
sighted measure that some are apt to commit from
a lack of rightly understanding the matter. The
object of advertising is to bring the matter to the
attention of the people, and to do this thoroughly
every means within reach need to be used. Every
body does not see the handbills, nor does every
body read one certain paper, but there are very
few but what take and read some one of the sew
era county papers. Money spent in thus adver
Using is we'll spent, and generally returns many
fold in the increased receipts of the SALE The
UNION offers better terms to persons intending to
make sale this Spring, than ever before. Don't
fail to avail yourselves of this opportunity if you
desire to attract large crowd Of lively bidders
and extensive buyers.

To Get Rid of Rats.-A correspondent says:
"We clean our premises of the detestable ver-
min, rats, by making white-wash yellow with
copperas and covering the stone and rafters with
it. In every crevice in which rat may go we
put the crystals of the copperas and scatter in the
corners of the floor. The result was perfect
stampede of rats and MICE Since that time not
a football of either rats or mice has been heard
around the house. Every spring q coat OF
yellow wash is given the cellar as purifier, as a
rat exterminator, and no typhoid, dysentery or
fever attacks the family. Many persons de-
lberately attract all the rats in the neighborhood
by leaving the fruit and vegetables uncovered in
the cellar, and sometimes the soap is left open
for their regalement Cover up everything eata-
BILE in the cellar and pantry and you will soon
starve them out. These precautions, joined to the
seryies of good cat. will prove ns good a rat OK
s--kNs1los as the chemist can provide. We never
alllygat to be poisoned in our dwelling. They
are SO apt to die between the walls and produce

Need of Trotting Meeting.-Mr. Dan
Steever, the well-known horse trainer and driver,
was asked the other day regarding the outlook for
trotting horses in the vicinity. ''There are any
number of good horses about town" he said, "but
there seems to be terrible amount of indifference
about the owners. The cause of this is partly
due to the absence of a trotting meeting here
The only races we trotting men have are held at
Herring Run Course, and they are few and far
between. Why, last year one race at Herring
Run attracted over one thousand spectators. If
we had the privilege of trotting races at Pimlico
we could make trotting races very popular in
Baltimore. We cannot get the Pimlico track,
however for this purpose. There several
prominent members of the Jockey Club who are
opposed to trotting, and will not give chance.
The only way in which we can have trotting
meeting hereabouts is to build track which will
be accessible for the people of the western section
of the city. The eastern people will go anywhere.
American.
Timonium would be the very spot to hold these
meetings. 1t is popular place, conveniently
situated, and we believe the majority of the stock
holders of the Baltimore County Agricultural So
ciety would favor the project of leasing the ground
The revenue to the society from this source
could be applied to the improvement of the
property.

Compliment to MARYLAND,

As has been heretofore announced, Baltimore
was recently selected by the Pope as the place eff
meeting of the first council of the Roman Catho-
lie Church in America, the same to be convened
on about November 6, 1884. In conversing
upon this subject that high official paid the fol-
lowing handsome compliment to our people,
eyes, old Maryland does well to keep the links in
her christian chain of history bright. The year
1889, November 6, when John Carroll became
Bishop of Baltimore, should have pious rehec-
ton in 1884 in q country blessed by nature, and
blessed with people of great good common sense,
and a love of liberty in its highest attributes"

Coughs and Colds.-Courbs and colds


Coughs and Colds.-Coughs and colds are
prevalent now, especially among children, too
often from the ignorance oarolossness of their
elder guardians. Many mothers appear to accept
with resignation the repeated and violent colds
from which their children suffer as providential
and unavoidable. The American Agricultural,
speaking on the subject, says: ga cold is by no
means due to exposure. Indigestion, constipa-
ton, a lack of scrupulous cleanliness, the unwise
habit of sleeping in much of the clothing worn
during the day, unaired bed chambers-all, or
any of these things may have far more to do with
your child's tendency to cold than the keenest
breath of the bracing winter air. And in great
measure these things are under your CONTROL
Mothers should understand that it is fact,
whether they see how it is or not, that numer-
Gus colds and Threats directly traceabe to
indigestion and dietetc errors. Quantities of
greasy food, fried meats, pastry and the like, ILL
ventilated rooms and continued constipation,
have to answer for many cases of Group, and putrd
ore-throats. All these things weaken the system
and render it far less able to resist changes of tenn
perature. Give every bedroom thorough airing
every day, more especially if several children are
obliged to sleep together, with their parents.
This is to be avoided, if possible: if not, always
lower a window slightly from the top-or if this
cannot be done, raise it from below. There is
frequently bad air enough generated and breath
ed in the sleeping apartment of family with
small children, to supply them all not only with
colds, but with number of so-called "malarious"
diseases, to last year, perhaps longer. Neglect
of bathing is another prolific source of colds. A
child from three to ten years old should certainly
receive entire bath twice week in winter. A
warm bath at night, taking special care to avoid
any chill after, will frequently break up sudden
cold. Keep children from playing in chilly, un-
used rooms in autumn and winter weather. Let
them play out of doors much as possible, TAX
ing care to have their feet warm and dry. A
flannel suit and rubber overshoes will often save
much cough medicine and doctors bills. Keep
them warmly clad, but do not be content with
barely covert their knees, leaving the limbs chilled

very suddenly on Saturday, February I'd, from
heart disease. She had been complaining of a
bad cold for several days, but had not been con-

room, found her dead, with her youngest child,
aged 10 months, in bed with its mother. During

time she was sitting up in bed Mrs. Lintz leaves
six children, the eldest being about IL years of
