ton secured the second premium in
the same class.
The w. C. 7. U. did an immense
business in their booth at the Elkton
Fair. The ladies we're so well patron
lied that the parties who ran the
dining ROOM under the Grand
Stand complained that their custom
was too small to make the privilege
an object worth contending for in
future and the ladies are likely to
have a monopoly of the hot meal
business another year.
If you want a good cook stove.o ne
that will give entire satisfaction in
every respect buy the "NeO Light
House" "New ,Ercelsior Penn" or
Nev Emerald of Haines & Kirk. At
Haines & Kirk, the enterprising
hardware men of Rising Sun are out
with new adv. Of stoves and guns.
They make a speciality Of goods for
the season. The rabbits are ripe q
little early this season but not before
Haines & Kirk are ready for them.
They have the guns to kill 'em every
pop. And stoves-the stove season
is little previous this year but Jack
Frost didn't catch them mapping
They are ready to ft you out from

Tho tariff discussion goes bravely
Ion, growing hotter and hotter as the
weather cools down, an ingenious
method of keeping the equilibrium
The question appears to be, when it
can be got at amidst so much debate,
where shall the line be drawn. The
Democrats grow more vehement
every day lin declaring that they
have abandoned free trade. and are
only intent in lowering the "war
taxes" just little. and the republi-
cans are justas emphatic in declaring
that their opponents mean free
trade all the same. Both parties are
exercised more than usual oyer that
unf. thomable person,the silent voter.
They admit their eloquent appeals
are unable to move him and no fel-
low can find out how he intends to
vote, but in his hands he holds the
destiny of the trembling parties.
John Leander Reed whose death is
announced under our obituary head,
died suddenly at his home in this
town on Saturday morning. His
sickness was short and violent. The
immediate cause of his death being
inflammation of the stomach and bow
els, which producing cramp, caused
an internal rupture that permitted
the stomach to rise in contact with
the heart causing sudden death. A
post norton examination was made
by the physicians resulting in the
above facts. The deceased it is sup
posed may have sustained internal
Injury accidentally while at work in
the warehouse of A. L. Duyckinck
& Co. in whose employ he had been
for some time. He leaves young
widow and one child. The remains
were inferred at Little Britain Pres
byterian cemetery on Tuesday.
Mr.. Ellis Passmore Of Rising Sun
has had p sheep killed by dogs on
bis farm near Zion, within about a
month, and the dogs, though making
frequent visits to the sheep, have
not been killed. They skillfully
avoid capture or detection. Here is
the loss of a hundred dollars worth OF
sheep, perhaps more, by dogs not
worth to owners or the public, prob
ably a single cent. Farmers should
be Intelligent and progressive enough
to have a state dog law passed with
provisions sufficiently string emit and
} practical to pretty nearly abolish the
dog plague.
Do not despair Of curing your sick
headache when you can SO easily obtain

prompt and permanent cure. Their action
is mild and natural.
