has been commenced in earnest this week.
Cellars and wells are being dug. Many hun
dred perch of stone will be used, and to meet
this demand a fine quarry has been opened
on Springfield avenue. Blasting is being
done with dynamite and powder. Loud re-
ports like that Of cannon can be hearu at
Short intervals during the day, which is music
to the ears of an old soldier, and has aroused
war-like feeling in the village. Forty men
have already put their names down to be
mustered into the service of the great State
of MARYLAND. Infantry will be the branch OF
service by which Sykesville intends to spread
her fame We will soon be ready to cooper
ate with the Oyster Navy. Look out Tor

Mr.. Frank Brown has purchased from the
trustees Of Patapsco Circuit of the Nj: n.
Church their parsonage at this place. The
price paid was S2,4JO. He has sold to them
d acres of land at $3.50 per acre, on which 1t
was supposed they intended to build new
parsonage, but since then we have learned
they have purchased from Mr.. Joshua SERVE
nor a house and lot in Eldersburg for 81, 400,
which will be improved for that use. Some
say that Eldersburg is better suited, 1t beng

Al the Stating Rink.

On Monday and Tuesday the midgets gave
an exhibition at the skating rink. The nov
city of the entertainment attracted large
crowd. Florence was introduced as being
between and 5 years of age, and Jay as
being between and 3 years Of age. The
elder brother has passed the midget size. He
gave some difficult feats for one so young.
Miss Florence was very graceful and was well
received. The little fellow performed his
part well and was loudly applauded, .espe-
cially when he picked up handkerchief at
full speed. .,
On Monday evening next there will be a
