here from Oaklawn, Fla, where he has an
observatory, on Monday, and was imme

best physicians unhesitatingly pronounced
yellow fever. Other doctors doubted that
the disease was really yellow fever, but their
doubts were removed when the patient was
seized with the black vomit last evening and
died from its effects. The professor had en-.
gagged passage for Europe, intending to sail
next Saturday. His family are still at Oak.

Startling Discovery.

The discovery by the inhabitants
of a locality hitherto unvisited by the
pestilent scouige OF fever and ague,
that it exists in their very midst, is
decidedly startling. Such discover

part OF the Union. Subsequently,
when it is ascertained, as it invariably
is at such times, through the valuable
experience of some one who has been
benefited and cured, that Hostetter's

SATURDAY, MARCH 10. 1888.

The interest on the part of our
townspeople in higher education
must be on the increase, judging from
the number of students in attendance
at MASSEY Hail." Classes in the
different grades are taught from A.
NJ. to 9 P, NJ, each day, and yet, ow-
ing to limited room, the principal is
compelled to decline applicants for
admission almost daily. 1t is a mat
ter of regret that this tried institu-
tion is so hampered. There is no
reason in Limitation in educational
matters here, nor wisdom in sending
boys away for the academic and pre-
paratory course they could obtain
more effectuaIly and with less ex-
pense at home. Further assistance
towards additional buildings would
insure a high grade classical school
which would be credit to the town
and of vast import and profit to our
county.

Four More States,

WASHINGTON, d. c., March A.
Representative Springer, in behalf of
the majority of the Committee on
Territories, has prepared a report
which he will present to the House,
recommending the passage of what is
known as the "Omnibus" bill to en-
able the people of Dakota. Montana,
Washington and New Mexico to
form State governments and to be
admitted into the Union on an equal
ity with the other States. The re-
port gives statement of the pOpu-
lation and resources Of each of the
proposed States.
Dakota, it says, has an area of &c.
500, 480 acres, an estimated popula-
ton in 1887 of 569, AT. and a taxable
property valuation of Sl57 ,0S4,3
Attention is called to the fact that
26,S47 ,115 acres, comprising more
than One-fourth of the entire area of
the Territory, is Indian reservation
land and excluded from the jurisdict
tion of the proposed State. The eli.
mate in the northern portion of the
Territory and the character of the
lands west of the Missouri river are
also stated TO be such as to preclude
the possibility of dense population
in those regions. If, however, the
Indian titles should hereafter be ex-
ltinguished, and the population be-
'-seme SO great as to make a single
State unwieldly. Congress, the re-
port says, may provide for its divis-
ion into two States. No imperative
reason is seen why the Territory
should be divided at the present
time.
Montana, the report says, has an
area of 95, 0l6,64S acres, a population
estimated to amount to 10000 in
November next, and taxable prop
city valuation in 1866 of So, 076,S7l.
The Indian reservations in the Terri
tory comprise 20,574,64S acres.
The area of Washington Territory
is placed at Al, 796, 100 acres, of which
10Y .55S are Indian reservations its
population in November next is esti-
mated at 100000, and its taxable
property in 1887 is given as about
S56,000.000, not including railroad
property. Reference is also MADE to
its great mineral and timber re-
sources.
The area of New Mexico is placed
at II ,56S, GAO acres. of which 1856, 225
is comprised within Indian reserVa-
tons. An official census in 1885
showed its population to he l34,l4l,
and its taxable properly in 1856
amounted to S56,000,0 900.

The Legislative Session.
Yours truly,
w

The Legislature of Maryland has
now entered upon the last month of
the session, and if any of the real
work expected Of it is TO be done. it
will be necessary to throw overheard
the big deck load of trivial stuff, as
well as "a lot of the contraband freight
which may be slowed away snuglY
with the legitimate cargo of the ship
of State. During the past sixty days
siXty-eight local bills have been
passed. Not one measure of q gen.
eral or important nature has been
matured, though the fact should not
be overlooked in this connection that
some very unwise and prciudicial
urged on the Legislature by
outside pressure, have been driven
to cover and practically defeated.
