1t was our intention to write Il letter
on politics. but your paper is worthier of
other subjects
Circuit court convened here on Mon
day. The usual crowd of interested and
others anxious to get on the jury were
in attendance. The session will in pro-
liability continue for several weeks.
The fire in the drug store ofDr. Mitch
ell on Friday last, promised great con-
flagration but for the timely aid. No
doubt but this will bestir our citizen to
to take some action in regard to getting
faculties for saving property in case of
fire.
The fair is but few days distant
Some of the managers are making great
effort to make of the fair success
The merchants do not enthuse over the
coming event, but we all hope with u
great hope of great attendance, and
that the concern may be placed on Il
firmer bases.
The ball next Wednesday promises to
be something great. The music will be
something immense, and grand to hear.
None need stay away because the tones"
will be there, because our best citi-
zens are interested in the event, and no
rowdyism or anything to offend the taste
be allowed in the room. MI X.

Cecil County Fair Ball.

The second annual fair ball will be
given in the large exhibition building,
ON the Fair grounds, at Elkton, on We'd
nesday night, September Both. That it
will far eclipse all other occasions of a
similar nature, we have but to give a
short sketch of the grand orchestra that
will be there under the leadership and
management of Prof Jno. b. Richie of
Wilmington. This is what he told us:
The orchestra will consist of first viO-
Inns, second violins, viola, picolo,
flute, . clarionets, , comets, 2 French
horns, trombone, oboe, bassoon and
tympani part includes bells, xylophone,
drums and triangle, in all twenty-three
men. Prof Satori, the harpist, is one of
the finest performers on that instrument
in this county The music used on this
occasion is principally from the Ameri-
can Music Publishing Company of New
York, and will consist of selections from
the popular operas of the day.

Pennsylvania State Fair,

The display of horses, cattle, sheep
and swine, which will be on exhibition
from the opening day to October Sd on
ly, will be the best ever shown in Penn
sylvania or adjoining states. The herds
of Shorthorn, Devon, Holstein, Friessan,
Hereford, Jersey and Polled Angus cat
tie which will be shown, are pronounced
by officers of the Society to be the best
that have ever come under their observa-
ton.
The horse display will be one that has
never been exceled and in the thorough
bred class are entered some of the most
celebrated animals identified with the
history of the American turf, prominent
among whom IRE the stations Alarm
imported Dalnacurdach, and the famous
mares Maggie b. b. and Lady Lumley
with their foals by their sides.
The Norman Percheon and Clydesdale
classes will contribute 80 imported an
imals, the largest showing of these val
ued broods ever shown east of the Mis-
sissippi.
Everywhere the visitor will find inn
provement New walks and drives have
been laid out, covered with crushed stone
and the ground show to far better adj
vantage than last year. Gas and electric
ity have been introduced
Beginning with Saturday of next week
there will be an interesting week OF
sports in the form of jumping, matches
over hurdles bitches and walls, exhibit
tons of high jumping, together with the
revival of the old time trOtting to saddle
matches, once so popular. There will
be four of these events Il day and they
will be participated in only by amateur
and gentlemen riders, professionals be-
| ing strictly excluded. The increasing
popularity of these trials as directed by
the Rose Tree, Bryn Mawr and West
Chester Hunts and the Germantown
Hare and Hounds make it certain that
they will prove attractive and interest
ing features. A new halEmile track has
been made for these races, and large
grand stand etocted from which an adj.
mirable view of them may be had. Ear
| ly in October the shows of poultry and
dogs will begin, and, if present indica.
tons may be trusted, will be larger and
more complete than last year.

paper mills, enroute for home, on Mon
day evening last about 10 o'clock, he was
suddenly struck by some article that was
hurled at him with almost sufficient force
to knock him off the animals back. After
collecting his scattered senses, he called
to friends who were some distance ahead
in dearborn, but they thinking nothing
out of place kept on. Robinson quick
ened his pace and caught up with the
dearborn and Immediately notified them
of what had occurred, urging them to go
back with him to the mills and try and
find out who had made the assault, but
after momentary consideration, they
thought it best to keep on. Things has
come to a pretty pass surely roundabout
this town, when persons cannot venture
out of the town limits after night-fall
without fear of being attacked by some
vile OUTLAW. Something should be done
at once to bring these culprits to justice.
A good dose Of cat-o-nine tails properly
administered to few of these might
effect cure and put stop TO their acts
and purposes. Let the lash play until
blood shall flow from the backs of all,
regardless Of color or race, who can not
exist without offering or doing harm un-
to others. Robinson is not yet out of his
teens. Whether he was taken in mis-
take for some one else is not known, but
this appears altogether likely, as further
attempts to over power him, were not
made.
The heavens have been, this last two
weeks or two, arrayed in all her grand
ieur. The twinkling stars in countless
numbers have been shining out and
down upon all nature and humanity in
such manner as to cause man to rejoice
and admire the handi-work of the Crea-
tor in the heavens. But all these glisten-
ing lights are but nought compared to
the moon-who in the fullness thereof
looks "round" and finds she is without a
rivals queen of the nighttime lights.

A RUSH OF PEOPLE.
BROAD STREET STATION, PHILADELPHIA
THE MANY CURIOUS PEOPLE WHO GO IN
AND OUT DAILY-BEwILDERED
Observation-Disclosures, ETC.

The Pennsylvania Railroads big sta
ton in Philadelphia is the recepticle of
humanity made up of all colors and ma
tionalities. One has but to go in at the
first floor, where the ticket offices of the
many branch roads from the main stem
are located and take a seat on one of the
benches that face the ticket sellers, await
further developments. You have not
long to wait, because the doors on either
side of you are constantly on the swing
while the hackman's cry increases con-
fusion and scoop in those who care not
where they are taken, so long as they get
away from the terrible din and babble.
"IIere they are " "Who?" asks our COM
panion. He need not have asked the
question had he looked in the direction
whence our optics indicated. A trio of
countrymen, unsophisticated, filled with
gaps, their mouths adorned with two
fcrs," boots covered with fresh country
dust, and brain all bewldered. There
they stood. They do not know which
way to turn to get out of the way of
travellers rushing hither and thither.-
The fragrant stumps go out, so intent are
they gazing and getting tout of some
bOdy's way" This won't do at all. One
fellow, having recovered speech, keys his
voice to the highest pitch, and says, "Jim,
fork out a match" Jim tries to get at
the stick with the sulphur head, but for
the life of him he couldn't do it. While
both hands are vigorously at work in his
trousers pockets searching, he receives a
broad-sdcr from IL chap on rush for the
train. Jim picked himself up as soon as
possible from head of ready-made
clothing, over which he had stumbled.
Jims' partners wanted to fight right
off, and the two gave out whoop and
made for the second story. As we did
not follow, we are at loss to know with
what success they met with.
"No you don't sir, you just take this
baby and march yourselfup stairs, while
| see to these flowers and bundles =
Sure enough, there the happy pair stood.
The baby had just been placed in the
arms of a diminutive, meek-loOking pa.
rent, while the better-half assumed an
air of sublime authority. The frail, meek
looking man opened his lips as if to
speak, but his attempt was cut short by
his protector, whose eyes emitted dam
gGrous sparks of wrath. "Do you think
for one moment that I'm going to drag
myself to death, and let you do nothing
not much; no indeedee, not l." The
poor, frail creature of a husband saw that
argument was useless, and with heavy
child in his arms struggled up the broad
flight of stairs to the waitng-room, there
to remain until called for by his sweet.
tempered protector.

sation attracted our attention to two
sable-hued gemmen from the rural dis
tricts, whose very appearance indicated
that they had come up to "buy Cloes.'
Each was attired in the latest cut panta-
looms go cents Il pair while yaller and
red necktie of unusual proportions set off
white collar attached to check shirt.
Each was burdened with numerous bun
dies of various sizes, and upon these they
cast fond glances. "No use talkin, sam,

Bill look at dem wagons and carriages

mokes were jostled about by this that
and the other one, until they seemed
paralyzed with fear. AT last Bill espied
the broad flight of steps, and giving Sam
a nudge in the side with his elbow, the
darks buckled onto the pile of bundles
and made at the steps. Bits toe caught
on to the last step before the landing was
reached, and he measured himself at full
length, while the bundles took different
courses in their flight. The last we saw
and heard of the pair was sam telling
Bill to be more proud-like, and not let de
white folks see how clumsy he was
Although the different ticket places
have plainly printed signs, us to what
points tickets can be procured, yet the
majority of people strike the wrong place,
and after the agent tries to make it plain
to them just where to go, off they rush to
the-wrong place. Confusion unlimited.
Still the great thrOng of travellers come
and go daily at this great station. Mis-
takes go by unnoticed, and the poor
elbow the rich in their eagerness to get
ON board" Such is the picture of every
day life at the Broad Street Station in
Philadelphia. The Pennsylvania Rail
road has splendid system of business,
and with all the seeming confusion and
uproar at her great depot, hundreds OF
trains come in and are sent out, on time,
day and night, with few casualties.
