pected to accept anything that is
offered to you. An amusing story is
told of Sir Spencer st, John, the Eng
Iish ambassador, which illustrates
how this national courtesy often pro
vokes embarrassment. Sir Spencer,
who is a gallant old bachelor, was
promenading with some ladies in the
park when he met nurse girl with
a bright-eyed baby. The ladies stop
ped to admire the little one, and Sir
Spencer asked whose child it was.
"Senor, it is your own" replied the
nurse with a courtesy. Sir Spencer
has never inquired as to the parent
age Of pretty child since.

Mr.. Brenneman has recovered the

II is now reported that the thief has
been arrested in Washington City
with a stolen horse or two in his pos
session. 1t may he Of some interest
to know that the horses were recoV-
cred by strange combination of cir
rumstances. Some 70 or so miles from

in West Virginia, gentleman was
riding rather rapidly towards a wat
ering place near a grist mill. FOrtu-
nately he was behind the thieves
whose guilty conscience at once jump
ed to the conclusion that it was some
one pursuing them. The horses were
abandoned and the thieves took to
the woods. This single circumstance
led to The recovery Of both horses.
Mr.. Brenneman is out of pocket over
500 in cash and much valuable time
lost. Mr.. Brenneman is highly es-
teemed in this community, and the
probabilities are that free justice
would he melted out to the thieves
were they to be tried in Garrett coun-

number of small articles were taken
from different parties.

Court adjourned Saturday after
noon. The case Of the State vs..
Fletcher WiImore, charged with
burglary. which was on trial at the

other business of general interest was
transacted.
The municipal election took place
in Cumberland Monday, and resulted
in the Republicans electing three
c0uncimen and the Democrats three.
The Republicans elected George
Eyerman in the second, Dennis
Graves in the fourth and Thomas
Doris in the fifth wards. The Dem
ocrats elected John w. Sanders in
the first, John CraddOck in the sixth
and James M. Smith in the third
wards. The council now stands
seven Republicans to four Demo-
Gratis. There was very little interest
taken in the election and it passed off
quietly.
We desire to call attention TO the
dangerous practice of throwing and
catching ball in the streets. Some
times badly aimed bail passes by
the catcher with force enough to
knock a man senselcSS if it should
happen to strike him. A few even
ings ago while several young men
Were practicing near Coddington',
Hotel, young lady who happened
to be passing at the time barely es-
capped a severe blow. 1t would he
well for those who engage in this
practice to go where they would not
endanger the lives or limbs Of persons
attending to their legitimate bust
ness. The practice ought to be pro,
hibited by law.

the strikers this afternoon and interviewed
their leader at their headquarters in car 60.
He said:

uties called this afternoon to serve them, but the
men are not here and VIII not be found. They
have left the city.

were not strikers, intimsted that il there
was no danger they would 60 out with q
train guarded, but they were persuaded it
would be dangerous. I'VE have no fears of
desertions from our ranks"
Late this afternoon Mayor Zollinger issued
a proclamation calling upon the striking
bYakemen to cease interfering with the rail-
road company and the moving of trains, and
warning all persons who had no legal rights
upon the grounds of the railroad company
to leave them, quoting the penalty for in
terfeTing with the railroad company in its
busine etc.
Just what effect this proclamation Will
have upon the strikers remains to be seen.
The railroad officials say this evening that
they have nothing to say further than that
the cituation remains unchanged. The pay
car, which was due here to-day, did not ar
rive, SO was erroneously stated before. but
came only as far west as Upper Sandusky,
100 miles east of here. The psymaster re-

employees here will not be paid until after

The only incident of note today was an

BODY of strikers assembled and would
not allow the men TO be taken,
and.then the Marshals withdrew from
