in medicine, as we'll prepared for his profess
sion, has as good success, and has as good
practice, as any other physician in the county,
No other is more widely or more generally ac-
cepted. Nor is there any other who is better
to be depended upon in the worst and most
difficult cases. He is the quickest and surest
in breaking up fever. He is the SAFEST,
for he neither kills nor INJURIES any by over
dosing them, and he has saved alarge number
whom other physicians we're losing. Heis the
best midwife. He is also the best in
the treatment OF female complaints, liver,
lung, and kidney diseases, and piles. There
are numerous incidents on every hand which

you call upon him you do not have to pay Soc.

a Telenhone Connection.

There has been considerable talk among
some Of our leading citizens during the late
term of Court Of endeavoring to establish a
telephone connection through this section Of
the State. The idea we think n most feasible
and excellent one and We hope to see energy
and enterprise enough aroused among our
people to carry it to a successful completion
1t has been repeatedly urged that there is neces,
sity for telegraph communication with Baltl-
more and Washing ton and our section, but il
had received no uonsi berable impetus from our
people from the fact that it would have been
difficult to secure and maintain an expert
operator at the various points. But in the case
of the telephone this trouble will be ohviated
bv the fact that every one can be his own opera
tor and, moreover, the communication will be
more direct. The plan AS suggested is to run
the wires from Marlboro, Where they can con-
meet with the telegraph, through our county
and ST. Mary's TO Leonardto~n and an instru-
ment AMI connection will be established at every
considerably settlement along the route. The
estimated cost will be between 81, 600 and So,
900, and after it is once established We think
with this amount of stock il ought to realize
handsome div iaends. Let this matter he talke
up and let US hear the views OF the capital and
enterprise of our county ON the sui ject. We
doubtless will have something further in regard
TO this sui jet in the future.

On Saturday last during the ST ssion OF
Court, his honor Chief Judge Stone, WAS pre-
scented by Mrs. Francis A. Posey with ver'
bea utiful and iastefully arranged b qnet OF
fresh spring flowers. The p esentalion was
made by Mr. John T. Davis in his usual happy
and faceiious manner and was responded to in
few fitting remarks from the Judge. The
floral Offering WIS placed on the bench before
the Judge and he occasionally rtgaled his
nostrils with the sweet perfume arising softly
from the dep hs of nature. The soft influence
of the flowers id not in the least conflict with
the admins ration of Justice from the bench,
however, as gully prisoners were dealt with
to the extent of the law which their crimes
deserved.

There are now in the 6sh-houss, Druid
Hill Park, Baltimore city, nearly 500, 600 brook
trout, ready for distribution. These trout are
quite lively and healthy aHd are from three 10
to distribute 20, 900 young trout in the northern
and western counties of the State. The water
in the streams of the sou thern counties becomes
too warm in the summer for the trout to thrive
in, and for this reason they will be distributed
principally in the mountain streams of Allegany
and Garrett counties, where they said &c
thrive to perfection.

Probably Fatal Shooting Accident.
a disn essing and probably fatal shooting
accident occurred at the resident of Mr. F. D
Mudd, near Bry an town, on last Saturday morn
ing. little colored girl named Maggie Nell
son, employed as nurse in Mr.. Mudd's family
shot herself while playing with pistol which
was kept ia red-room, the ball entering the
stomach and p,ssing out near the spine, infict-
ing serious internal injury. 1t seems that the
girl had been sent into the bed room for some
purpose and seeing the pistol began to play
with it, when the hammer fell dischargng the
LOAD into her abdomen. She was attended by
Drs. Mudd and Boarman, who pronounce her
wound necessarily f-ta'. Maggie was an affa bic
and obedicnt little girl and Mr.. Mudds family
were much attached to her. They are shocked
and grieved by her unfortunate accident.

Maryland Crops.
The May crop report of the dep rtment of
agriculture says that wheat is in high condi-
ton in Maryland, except on some re'y heavy
clay soils, which have been too wet. A similar
condition is reported in Virginia and North
Carolina. The early se.del grain is especially
promising. The present s'ason in Maryland
is at least three weeks later than usual, We,
the rye crop is v,rs promising, Will. the con
dition of the wheat crop is ever, where on an
average with most years, ard in some large
