Our inpublican friends of Southern
Maryland, and especially those ''persis-
tent bloodhouudss of Prince Georges,
profess to be much gratified at what they
say has been the great success of the Hon.
Sydney Mudd in getting places for the
boys under the Government. They think
that this fact alone gives good promise
that Sydney will be counted in" Some
of them in this immediate vicinity have
had the hardihood to institute COMPARE
son between the relative abilities of sgd
ney and the Hon. Barnes Compton, evil
denced by Syduey's great success in get
ting places.
The TIMES has 40 desire to lessen sgd
ney's laurels. Some things not over COM
pimentary to him, regarding his political
doings, have appeared in oar columns but
we shall never do him an injustice, if we
know it. But we are bound. as local
journalists, to keep local history Straight.
All the places which Hoa. Sydney has OBJ
tanned for the boys, with possibly one or
two exceptions, bad been previously filled
by Hon. Barnes Compton with people
from his district. As we have heretofore
explained, defeated Republican con-
gressional candidate in Maryland. has ex-
actly the same license at Washington in
turning out Democrats and putting in
bis followers, as if be had been elected
All Sid. has to do, therefore, is to find
out the places Mr.. Compton has filed
and make request that they be vacated
for his followers. Under these circum-
stances we have been somewhat surprised
to learn that a goodly number of the
places held by Mr.. Compton's appointees
have been filled with people from other
States. This explains Hon. Sydney's sue
cess. Had he followed Holton, be would
have been dead letter in helping the
boys. 1t remains for Sydney's friends to
hope that he viii be better rewarded for
his pains than Mr.. Compton has been

When Queen Victoria dies the numer-
GUS suites of rooms now closed in the
royal palaces will probably be reopened
for occupancy. The Queen has strong
penchant for closing rooms once used by
her friends. The apartments at Clare
mept in which the Princess Charlotte
died more than seventy years ago are
vigorously closed. Prince Albert's apart
ments at Windsor, Osborne and Balmor-
81 are all kept precisely as they were
when he was alive, The Duchess Of
Kent's rooms at Frogmore are also shut
up, which renders that abode absolutely
useless, as they are the best in the house.
The Queen has also kept John Browns
rooms at Windsor entirely closed since
the death of that domestic.

poor widow this year to plant on halves.
The land was planted to potatoes, and
the crop was good one. This mean
man came by night, dug into the sides
of the hills and removed from each all If
the tubers with the exception of a few
struggling ones. This left the topt hIu'-

At the "official digging" few days ago
the widow was sadly disappointed at
the paucity of the crop, and when the
potatoes were divided her portion was

hoped that this man will long continue
to hold the championship uncontestedi

Facts Worth Knowing.

In all diseases OF the nasal mucous
membrane the remedy used must be
non-irritatiDg. The medical profession
has been slow to learn this. Nothing
satisfactory can be accomplished with
douches, snuffs, powders or syriDges be-
cause they are all irritating, do not thor
oughly reach the affected surfaces and
should be abandoned as worse than fail
ures. A multitude OF persons who had
for years borne all the worry and pain
that catarrh can inflict testify to radical
