Western Run, 9th District.-The funeral
of Miss Maggie Ensor, daughter of Mr.. George
Ensor, deceased, took place at Black Rock on
Sunday morning last. The church was crowded
with relatives and friends of the deceased, and
the funeral was preached by Rev. F. A. Chick.
During the funeral services at Black Rock
Church on Sunday morning last, Mrs. Colds
borough, of Baltimore, while alighting from the
carriage of Mr.. Chas. Brooks, fell and broke one
of her arms and also had several teeth knocked
out. In the afternoon she was taken to the city
for treatment.
The assessor of new property in this distric!
has found quite a number of improvements that
he will return to the Commissioners Office.
Mr.. Geo. w. Brooks is the contractor for the
house that is being built at Butler for Miss Shaul
The health of Col. E. P. Philpot has improved
very much-so much that he is able to sit on
his lawn.
Political excitement is running high in the Sth
district among members of the Democratic party.
The recent rains have had the effect of improv-
ing the corn crop, and the outlook for an abun-
dant yield is most encouraging.
The next work of importance for the farmer is
cutting off corn and my plan is to 60 through the
field and tie all the stands, thus saving time, and
in case of storm, great deal of trouble. We
tie our rows by 16, which is the best plan yet
tried. WESTERN RUN.

that your correspondent at this place had left but
this letter will convince the curious that have
returned and am engaged in furnishing items as
formerly.
One day last week Mrs. John Beckman was
driving out from the city in her market wagon,
loaded with coal, and when near Esquire Carter s
house, one of the front wheels ran off, throwing
her out of the wagon and one of the hind wheels
passed over her body, injuring her 30 seriously
that it was at first thought she would not recover,
but am glad to say she is getting along very
nicely. DR.. Corse attended her. A small boy
that was in the wagon with Mrs. Beckman, es-
capped without injury.
The heavy rains of Sunday night and Monday
did great deal of damage in this neighborhood.
The roads are torn all to pieces. Mr.. VIM. H.
Councilman, who has charge of Blue Ball avenue,
put large force at work ON it Tuesday and soon
had it in a passable condition. The culvert over
Streets run was washed away, and by Thursday
it was nearly completed. The county road was
also badly washed near Mr.. Trump's mill, making
it impassable Mr.. J. W. Jacobs private bridge
was washed away. He had just crossed the bridge
on his way to market, and made narrow escape.
Nearly every person living along the streams SUI
fered more or less.
You will remember measuring on old chestnut
tree on Mr.. Geo. Councilman's place, which was
"a feet in circumference Well the storm on
Monday night destroyed part of the top of this
ancient landmark. I doubt if there is larger
tree in this section of the county.
Mr.. Jesse Fowler lost horse few days ago
for which he had just paid $165.
Four threshing machines have been operating
