THE Castroville Anvil man was a
little careless last Saturday and let
his sledge down on his fingers in the
following item:
"San Antonio does not seem to care
whether railroad is extended from
that place to Llano. We advice the
Llano committee to 90 to Fort Worth
and see how long it would take to
raise $50, 900 for their road"

the money was all raised and the eX-

THE long expected steamer has ar

news from Samoa, but not one word
of the sinking of the Nipsic or any
trouble between German and Ameri-

was expected at Washington and may

This matter will be settled by diplo-

Temperance Day at Camp.

The Maryland State Temperance
Alliance and w. c. T. U. had Friday
of last week appropriated to them by
the Woodlawn Camp Meeting Associa-
ton. The Alliance had provided two
good speakers for the occasion, Rev.
H. c. Herbert and Rev. w. +. Speake
of Baltimore. They made strong
speeches on the side of total prohibi.
ton and against license in any shape.
The theory embraced in the speech of
one of the men at least was widely at
variance with his political party avow-
ed action. The teaching ofsuch teach
ers have little influence. A man who
looks one way and walks in an oppo-
site direction is set down by the
public of no account. He nulifies his
work.
Rev. j. H. Wiley who spoke for the
w. c. T. U. in the afternoon was an
orator indeed. Learned, eloquent and
logical. His was grand speech, an
oratorical effort that is an enjoyment
to listen to. The ladies were no doubt
proud of their chivabrous champion.
The attendance was comparatively
small which is to be regretted.

The second game was with the
crack Pennington club, the would be
champions of northern Cecil. They
had in the box their left.handed

not seem to puzzle the Sun batters,
as they batted out victory. The
Farmingtons tied the score in the
9Th inning but could do nothing
more, the Sun Winning the game in
the last half of the ninth by hit, a
steal and another timely single,
with one out. Kimbell pitched a
steady game for the Sun boys, most
of the runs being scored through er.

both games and did it in good style.

blessed. A woman that feareth the Lord,
she shall be praised. Give her of the
