A Decree Passed Tor the Sale of the
Maryland Central Railroad.
Baltimore Sun.

Baltimore sun.
Judge Fowler has passed decree for fore
closure OF the first and second mortgages on
the Maryland Central Railroad and appointing
A. w. Perrie trust tee to make the sale. The court
does not approve or confirm the report OF the
auditor as far as the same refers to the ndebt-
ness of the Maryland Central Railroad upon
bonds referred to in special report, because by
subsequent report 1t appears that all of the
bonds OF the Baltimore and Delta Railway Com
pany and the Maryland Central Railroad Com
pany, secured by the first and second mortgages,
have been disposed OF and are held absolutely
by the owners, and that the following amounts
are now due upon the mortgage bonds of the
Baltimore and Delta Railway Company $500, 900
principal and $500, 1925 interest to July 20,
1888, and upon the mortgage bonds of the Mary
land Central Railroad Co.. $500, 600 principal and
SOB $50 interest to July 20, 1883; total 81 ,203-
.25, which sum when found 10 be due the
owners of the first and second mortgage bonds,
the receivers are required to pay to the trustees
named in the two mortgages within five days
after the entry of the decree, together with the
costs of the suit, and in default of payment the

Effects ofthe High License Law ON the
Liquor saloon Trade.
A dispatch from Philadelphia tothc Bat.-
more San says:
The Brooks license law has been in opera
ton nearly two months. The number OF sa-
looms has greatly diminished, and the business
ofthose who obtained licenses has improved !;
so also has the business of bottlers who sup
ply families with beer by the case. Some at
least of the larger Drewerics have increased
their sales, and the brewers are well pleased
with the law as they have a better paying class
of customers. The licensed saloon-keepers
value their privileges SO highly that they strict
ly obey the liquor laws, and as result the ar
rests for drunkenness have decreased one-half,
Within the last two days three arrests have
been made of parties charged with selling
liquor without license.

The Wheat Situation.

A careful review of the field develops
the fact that Kansas and the
southwest promise an abundant crop OF
wheat for next harvest. So far there
seems to have been no winter killing
and unless we have exceptionally bad
weather during the month of March
we do not believe any serious winter
damage will be experienced.
1t is well known fact that in Kansas
especially, the last fall crop went into
the winter in exceptionally good condi-
ton, and during the winter there has
been sufficient rain and SNOW to keep
the ground moist and in excellent con-
dition, which is reasonable guarantee
against wind ravages of early spring, so
often detrimental to growth and devel-
opment of wheat when the ground is
very dry.
While all this is true of Kansas and
other portions of the southwest, there
are good reasons for believing that
other wheat growing regions have not
Jared so well. 1t is undoubtedly true
that in some parts of Illinois, Ohio and
Indiana, as well as in some of the other
states, the fall seeding season was a
very poor one. The wheat was planted
in very dry ground and had but feeble
growth when winter struck it If, UNI
der such circumstances, it should have
a fair yield, it will not come any where
near up to what the yield will be in
Kansas and the southwest.-Ex.

SAFE BLOWERS About.
Burglars At Night Break into
@. A. Hooper's Drug Store
and Secure About
$4,000.

About four o'clock Tuesday morning
parties heard what they thought at the
time was the discharge of gun in the
vicinity of the southwest corner of
the square. The baker at the Steam
Bakery heard the noise, as did Harry
Vowel and one or two others, but did
not think much of it at the time.
When the young man who is clerking
for Charley Hooper came down to the
store, he found the door on the south
side and near the rear of the building
open, and upon going in found the safe
blown open Ind rifled. Entrance TO
the building was gained by prying
open the double doors. The demol-
ished safe would indicate that exper-
fenced cracksmen did the job. A
quarter inch hole was drilled through
the door just below the combination.
and powder inserted through this
opening. A bottle of powder was
found on the floor near by. The
outside doors were shattered all to
pieces, and the bolts forced on the in
side doors. The safe was completely
rifled of it's contents, the robbers get
ting some $500 in cash and large
amount of notes and other valuable
papers. Mr.. Ben Kelly put $50 into
the safe for safekeeping. The rest Of
the loss falls on Mr.. Hooper. Upon
getting up Tuesday morning, MIR. w.
NJ. Hanger found in his back yard, a
couple of drawers containing a few
postage stamps, and some papers.
Mr.. Hanger lives just three blocks
west of the drug store, Oh the same
street. No clue has, up to the present
writing, been found to indicate who
did the job. One circumstance how
ever, might prove a clue. Late Monday
evening stranger, tall, slim man,
came into the store and asked for two
dollar paper bill, seemingly unne-
cessarily going behind the prescription
case and just past the safe to ask the
clerk for a bill. Detectives are now
at work on the case, and it is to be
hoped that the miscreants will be APP
pretended. This is the first robbery
of any consequence which has occurred
in Great Bend for many day. In
deed it has been a matter Of comment
that we have escaped such depreda-
tiOns.

On MEMORY OF ONE I LovED.l

In MEMORY or ONE LovEDl
THE following lines were written as tribute to
he memory of Grace E Snyder-l
One more form has drocped and faded
One more casket holds prize.
One more home has lost treasure,
Since our little Oracle died.
All the night we watched beside her
With most tender, anxious care,
TIL the early dawn of morning,
When angels bore gem away
Fold your empty arms sad parent,
Oracle needs not their embrace
Jesus claimed the life you nourished.
For a fairer dwelling place
Whilst her gentle form grew fairer,
Meath your tender loving care;
Angels were weaving crowns of glory,
For your darling's brow and hair.
Put away each love wrought garment,
Fold her sleeping robe from sight,
Lest your lips refuse TO utter,
Fervently, ''Thy will'' tonight

Advice to Husbands.

Share with youI wife the contents
of your pocket book. You trust her
with your heart and your honor; are
they of less value than your purse?
Don't always praise your mothers
cooking; give now and then word OF
commentator to hers, and see if you
are not more than repaid.
Don't, when you come home from
business at night. wear a frOwn heavy
enough to terrorize wild beast, not
to mention a timid woman and little
children; but enter your home with a
smile, kiss the tired wife and babies,
and see if the world doesn't appear
ten per cent brighter.
Pray don't think that you have con
ferred such an inestimable boon on
the little woman, just because you
have given her your name, and pro
vide her with food and clothes.
Think once. of all she has given up
for you, and see whose has been the

A Word About Capital and Labor

have little sympathy with the in
discriminate cry against the capitalist.
It is common error to commend the
spendthrift as good fellow and to
condemn the man who by economy
amasses wealth as a miser or robber.
But to whom do you go when you
want work? the poor man or the rich
man to the man whose money slips
through his fingers as fast as he
gets it, OF the one who pinches
his pennies little, until he has gained
capital enough to undertake some
building project, OF to establish and
run some railroad, OF to start some
mill, factory, or foundry, or to open
some mine OF enter upon or conduct
some similar enterprise, and who can
give employment to men less FORUM

time most of us have felt some incon-
venience, and others have experienced

pect this desirable state of things to be
brought about? By the coming of

Mol for were work is scarce, laborers
have general scrabble over every lit

he frequently places his estimate too

ed to the work. Carpenters and build
ers will bear me out in this statement,
and the same is true of other lines of
work. If the finances cannot be helped
by the man without money, then we
must look for help to that now much
abused, but very convenient person to
have about, the man with money-the
capitalist, variously called the miser,
the robber, etc. For, many of you
know that our immediate need is just

Finding Gold by Accident.

Gold as rule, is the thing you last
Will see in gold bearing soil. You may
have it under your feet at the rate OF
500 to the bucketfull of dirt, and not a
grain will you see, unless that soil hap
pens to be fnrrowed by recent rain.
Then if stream of water has cut it
away, washing it clean to the ledge, you
may see lying thereon the dull yellow
! bits, and you may take them for bits
of brass filing. Gold i'll its native state
is not a snowy metal, not near as snowy
as the glittering yellowish pyrites of
iron which so often by inexperienced

a man long out of luck, stroIled one
morning in an aimless mood of mind
out of the town of Columbia, Tuolumne
county. He sat down under tree and
with his stick commenced poking and
prying at rusty looking boulder in the
| soil before him. AS he continued to
poke and pry dull yellowish bit of
color appeared beneath the coating of
reddish rust with which the lump was
covered-Rust accumulated during its
long rest from the iron permeated soil.
He examined more closely land found
himself in possession of nugget, near
| ly all gold, and worth about $4,000.
The strikes which came under my OBJ
servation were all the result of similar
accidents at Chambers Bar on the
Tuolumne, where the seeming mis-
fourtune of breaking reservoir led to
rush of water over ground where no
gold was supposed to be, and in the
deep furrow cut by the water, there on
the ledge lay course gold; as on the
Mariposa trail, where one day lukless
man, packing grub and blankets, sat on
a bit of white, jagged rock to eat his
dinner, and after eating and while
smoking he idly pried with his jack
knife bits from the rotten ledge and
found one of the richest quartz veins in
the state; as at the Rawhide Ranch
claim in Tuolumne, where the long con-
tinued winter rains of 1861-2(fifty-

hard showers, all the level country un-
der water, landslips everywhere, COM

it had fallen out of the rotted quartz
matrix. a famous professor came a
few months afterward, made a servey
of some ground adjoining, pronounced
it rich, pocketed his 81 500 fee, and on
the grounds and on the strength of
that servey certain capitalists built ex-
pensive mining works, and when !
passed them years afterwards the
squirrels and wOodpeckers only held po-
