The Maryland Republican State Execu-
tive Committee appointed subcommittee
to consider the constitutionality of the Aus
tralian Ballot law. If there is chance Of
of doing anything with it a case will be car
ried to court. The ground is that the law is
not uniform, as nine counties are exempted,
and that the Governor did not sign it within
six days after the adjournment of the Legis-
lature. The Republicans are afraid that the
law will shut out large part Of the negro
vote.

IN LOVING REMEMBRANCE
of GEO. W. MONKS, who departed this life
August Sd, 1890.
From my side the love of my life has been taken.
My home is as empty as last years nest:
Why am left so lonely and forsakeD!
1 ask myself, docs God KNOW best p
Why has the staff that leaned on been broken?
Why should the joy OF my life be SO brief?
So brief and bright June seems its fttest token
Why should suffer is there no relief?
And soft as the breath of the spring mid the
roses
Hopes silver voice whispers low in my breast
After death darkens new life discloses,
Where love finds its measure, ''
Believe God knows best. ID

A LAND BOON IN BALTIMORE CoUNTY.-The
New Baltimore and Ohio Land and Improve
ment Company has bought 1858 acres of land at
Gunpowder station, on the Philadelphia Dv-
sion of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, and is
engaged in laying out "city," to be called
Loreley. The tract embraces the property of
the Rev. George Morrison and the Patterson
Mills estate. The company has cleared the
land, laid off avenues and streets and is engaged
in improving the Patterson mansion, erecting
summer houses, dancing pavilion, &c. Up
wards of $50 600 has already been expended and
it is stated that the Improvements projected
will cost about one million dollars. 1t is pro-
vised to sub-divide the tract into $500 building
lots, 25 by $50 feet each. The remainder, about
963 acres, is to be divided into cottage and villa
sites.
The advantages of the new city are said to be,
first its proximity to the large cities of the coast
being within half an hours ride of the centre
of Baltimore, an hour and half from Washing
ton, less than two hours from Philadelphia and
only four hours from New York. Besides its
location there are said to be immense stone
quarries and large supply of valuable timber
near the station, together with valuable deposits
of brick clay, aluminium and sand. The COM
pany is said to be negotiating for the erection
of factories of various kinds, valuable water
power being available.
A SUPPOSED CASE OF INEANTICIDE.-On
Wednesday evening coroner's inquest was
held before Justice Lyle, on the dead be dy of a
weIl-formed male infant, which had been con-
cealed in a bureau drawer at the Bel Air Club
House, by its mother, Alice M. Bay, young,
unmarried woman, who is the manager of the
dining room at the club house. An examina-
ton by Drs. E. Hall Richardson and Wake B.
Munnikhuysen established the fact that the
child had been born alive. Circumstantial evil
dence appeared to prove that the infant had
been smothered under pillow by its mother,
and that the grandmother of the child, Laura
v. Bay, denied the existence of the child and
aided In conceslIng the body.

for Hartford county which affects executions
