all unite in their search for some faint
clue, but all in vain. The only answer
brought back to their waiting ears, is
the echo of their own deSpairing cry.
But the search is not hopeless. Slowly.
but with increasing brightness the light
of science is breaking on this perplex-
ing question. AS the study of the loco
motive is better understood by a
knowledge of the nature of steam. so
the mind and its many phenomena are
better comprehended by knowledge of
it's Maker. We are all workers in the
great field of discovery. The plow
share OF original thought and investi-
CATION will, in spite of the stumps and
stones of opposition, turn many a gem
from the dark recesses of our untitled
soil to the brighter light of scientific
day. And as that day is only at it's
dawDing- as the glorious sun has
barely left the hOriSOn may we not
look for untold wonders when it shall
have frightened into dazzling noon
day; when we shall have mounted I'D
with the eaglewings of human DOS
sibilities on the dome of the temple of
truth? Then from the zenith of
earthly knowledge and enlightenment
the rays of discovery shall flood the
world with light. Then, and not till
then, will the whole world bow before
the throne of Him who rules supreme.
and the perplexing question of ''Mental
Telegraphy'' will be solved by the
minds Creator in that ne plus ultra
of our hopes.
Yes, when our hands have lifted the
veil the future hangs before us, and we
shall have come into communication
with the Great Designer himself. all

buried past, for I'VE shall know even

EAsToN, MD, June Judge Stump,
in the circuit court, to-day sentenced
Francis Nj. Fish to IL months in the
House of Correction and to pay fine of
500 for violating the liquor-selling law
in force in Talbot county. Fish is the
manager of the Esston Social, Literary,
Musical and Dramatic Club OF Talbot
county, and has had his place of business
in Easton. Tho grand jury indicted him
ia two cases for selling whisky to others
than members of the club, and petit
Jury convicted him In both. Some
months ago the governor directed States
Attorney Stewart TO take proceedings at
the circuit court yainst the social clubs
OF the county, whN n are incorporated By
the circuit court judges under the gem
eral incorporation act, to show cause
why their charters should mot be for
feited for abuse Of charter privileges.
The Easton ClUb, of which Mr.. Fish was
manager, was not included in the gov
ernor's order and Is the only ono that has
come 20 grief. A number of them sur
rendered their charters when process was
served on them by the sheriff The
Castor Club aud the Farmers' Club OF
st. Michaels, resisted and won. Judge
Stump, in sentencing Fish, said his con-
viotion should be q warning to all club
managers. The court will not permit
them to use their chatter privileges as q
subterfuge whereby nuliity will be
made OF other laws OF the state.

returned from his trip of inspection up
the canal as far az Harper's Ferry and
was at the canal Office in Georgetown
short time yesterday morning. He found
the canal about as 1t had beenrepresented
to him In the reports OF the division
superintendents, and while he will did
make q close estimate OF the oost..of
repairs until he has inspected the entire
line to Cumberland, he is convinced that
his Arst estimate OF bait million was
none too low. A meeting of the board Of
directors has boon called at Annapolis
for next Thursday, June 18th, and In the
meantime Mr.. Gambrill will confer with
number OF the holders Of the bonds Of
1878 to learn what action they will favor
or rather what action they will allow,
IS they virtually have the canal in their
power, aud can foreclose at any time.
The merchants and millers Of George
town still hope that some way will be
found out of the difficulty, and that II
the entire canal cannot be saved, the
Georgetown level will at least be repaired

MIR. George w. pissel said to-day that It
was not probable that the Georgetown
people would do anything more until
after the meeting Of the canal company
on Thursday, when their action would be
governed by the action Of the company.
