Mr. l.. c. Smith, ON last Friday, received
car load of bran and on this date, (Monday
the 2Sth) has hut one or two tons left.
Last Thursday Mr.. and Mrs. James B.
Gelwicks removed to Emmtsburg, Md. Mr..
Gclwicks will handle the yard stick for his
cousin Mr.. j. Thos. Gclwlcks, who has
opened new store there in a new building
just put up this last summer. We are sorry
to lose them rs citizens but wish them
pleasant and prosperous home.
The Supper held here on Thursday even
ing last, at Miss TllIic Crouse's, by the King
Daughters of the Reformed Church, Nc
chanlcstown was well attended and was a
financial success. An interesting feature of
the evening was the exhibition Of two very
pretty quilts of great artistic needle work
made nearly so years ago in Baltimore for
Reformed minister in that CITY. They have
been handed down as hcirlooms and are now
the property of Mrs. A. Slick and Mrs. John
Rouzcr Of Mcchanicstown. Any one haying
an opportunity to see those quilts should
surely avail themselves of the chance, even
at the small fee asked by the society, for
they are worth seeing.
1t is astonishing to see the lack OF iudg
mcnt displayed by some men who own good
horses by entering them in races, when they
are in no condition to trot n holly contested
race This was demonstrated at our late
Fair. The trotting stallion Circulator after
serving most successful season, standing
only the week before the Far and handicap
ped IN other ways, was entered in the $50
race and started against such horses as Rich
ard Wilkes, Ella b., Jerome, Prince Napolc-
on and others, al fast horses, and all cam
pagncrs, that haye been trottlng the whole
season, and all of them in prime racing con.
diion. The owner of Circulator certainly
lost his head and usual good judgment to
start Inn under such circumstances. Circu-
lator trOtt ed trial mile on our track one
week before the Fair in 230 and was timed
by several well known gentlemen, showing
that he has not lost his speed, but was not
in condition for hard contest in 4 race with
such old campaigncrs, and tends to ruin his
when he tr0tted our track, when in bad con-
dtIon in 229A. We hope the result in the
$50 race will teach the owner of Calculator
lesson and learn him to appreciate good
horse when he has one. A FARMER.-
