A PLEASANT RECEPTION.

The Chinese Congregation of St. An
drew's Cathedral Entertain Their
Pastor, Rev. III. HI. Gowen-A Pre-
sentation of Money.
Yesterday evening the members
of the Chinese congregation of ST.
Andrews Cathedral gave a reception
in the Sunday schoolroom to their
pastor, Rev. Herbert H. Gowen, who
leaves on Friday on the Australia
for England on six months vaca-
ton. The interior of the schoolroom
was most -prettily decorated with
wreaths of evergreens, flags and
strings of colored lanterns, while the
grounds were illuminated with
torches. The reception was attended
by nearly one hundred Chinese, and
a number of specially invited guests.
1t was very evident that the utmost
good feeling prevailed between
pastor and congregation, and that
the latter felt exceedingly the tenn
porary departure of one to whom
they are very much attached.
The proceedings opened with
prayer in Chinese by Rev. Mr.
Gowen, followed by heartily sung
hymn, Mrs. Chang Kim presiding at
the organ.
Mr.. Chang Kim then stated thas
they had met to wish their pastor a
pleasant voyage and safe return.
He called on Mr.. All Hung to make
few remarks.
MIR. All Hung, very active mem
Der OF the congregation, said their
pastor was going away and they
would be like a flock without a
shepherd. Mr. Gowen had been
with them nearly four years, and
had helped them very much. He
had worked hard and through his
efforts they had got new church
which was nearly ready for occu-
pancy. He had visited among them
frequently, and they all felt thank
full for what he had done. From one
or two they had sprung up to quite q
large congregation. On behalf of
the members of the congregation he
wished Mr. Gowen a pleasant voy-
age, and they would all be very glad
to see him back when his vacation
was up.
After singing another hymn, Mr..
zee Pho, the lay reader, said he felt
very unhappy because their pastor

The Great LIQUOR Firm.

Miss Shaw in her admirable dis
course last Friday evening related
an anecdote which placed the liquor
business in strong light. She was
doing missionary work in the State
OF Michigan among the saloon keep
ers, and happened into the saloon of
one Pat Murphy who pro, ed to be
one of those kindly sociable spirits
which is sometimes run across in
every branch of business. Miss Shaw
asked Mr.. Murphy why he continued
in business he condemned. Pat
assured her that he was a very small
factor in the business, and that Lis
quitting the trade would have no
perceptible influence on it. II am
only the smallest partner in a great
firm" said Pat. "And who are the
other members of the firm?" asked
Miss Shaw. "Read that license"
said Murphy, pointing to his license
that was hanging on the wall. After
reading the document, Miss Shaw re-
marked that she saw no other names
in the license than that of Mr..
Murphy.
"Now I'll read it," said Pat. "The
United States of America, the State
of Michigan, the city of Albion and
Pat Murphy. That's the firm said
Pat. "The United States gets 90
cents out of every gallon of whiskey
sell, the State of Michigan gets its
share, the city of Albion gets $500
and Murphy counts the money" The
crusader acknowledged that Mr..
Murphy taught her more about the
liquor business than she had ever
known before. Murphy assured her
that it was the la,0 which sustained
the liquor business and not the mon
ey that was in it or the men who
owned the saloons. And until the
United States, the State of Maryland
and every other State, city and
county ceases to be partners in this
great liquor firm of U. S. & company
the traffic cannot be entirely stonpcd.

Push the Good Work.

The report Of the outcome of the
Sixth district road meeting, publish
ed in this issue of the MIDLAND, is
most encouraging. 1t requires but a
cooperative effort to inaugurate o
system of gradual betterment of
roads, which will move forward by
its own impetus, when fairly started,
because every rod of road built per-
manently with broken stone will put
money in every farmers pocket who
has to place team on the road.
just as the system of using fertilizers
on every crop obtains with farmers,
who would not think of wasting their
labor by putting in crops and pro-
viding little or no food to sustain
and feed them. So will they come
to look upon muddy road. as an
actual pecuniary loss. 1t is within
the recollection of comparatively
young farmers when they looked
askance at laying out money for ma
nures. A few miles of good urnpike
in the muddy spring westher among
the mudhole roads will soon cure
farmers and others of their fears of
expense in making the roads all
good. There is a great deal of waste
time among farmers that might be
utalized very profitably in using their
teams to place stones on the road
side where bad stretches of road de-
mands piking. With some money
and voluntary labor a wonderful i'm
provement can be wrought in tae
roads and the expense scarcely
noticed, This step will break up
the Wasteful methods in vogue of
shoveling and blowing on the roads.
Such work is nearly all dead loss.
The work of plking has begun on the
Harrisville road, and we hope to
hear of commencement on other
roads at once.

Death of Emma Alice Browne

There are none in the upper part OF
Cecil county, who have reached the
middle of life's allotted span who did
not know Emma Alice Browne, the
tender poetess. Her welded nane was
Watt. She passed the most of her
married life in Illinois where she re-,
Gently died after a short illness, aged
"a.
AS poet she stands at the head, or
at least next to Poe, in this state, and
ranks among the few true poets of her
time.
She was born at Vinegar Hill, and
began to dictate poems before she had
learned to write The New York Ledqer
has monopolized her writings for the
last thirty-two years. Her poems which
are the sweetest and most pathetic,
will be published in a volume and we
predict for them large sale in her
native county. She was poet entirely
of natures make; fully as much so as
Burns, but not possessed of his great
depth of harmony, however.
The following sketch of the life of
the poetess condensed from her biogra
ply in "Poets and Poetry of Cecil
county," was published in Thursday
Baltimore Sun.
This well-known writer was born
on Mount Pleasant. about one mile
from Colora Cecil county, She was
the Oldest child of William A. Browne
and Hester A. Tombstone, the latter Il
sister OF the late James Touchstone,
who served in the Legislature from
Cecil county. Her fathers family was
connected with that of Mrs. Felicia
Hemans, the English poetess. She
was a cousin of Georse Johnston,
author of The History ofCecil County"
and editor of The Poets and Poetry of
Cecil County," in the latter of which
the poems of the deceased occupy aeon
spicuous place. Her father was
preacher of the Methodist Protestant
Church, and died when she was but
eight yaers old. She composed verses
at four years of age and published
poems at ten. She removed with her
family to Port Deposit in 1866, and re.
maiLed there two years, when they
went West, Emma having secured
position on the Misso uri Republican for
which she wrote her only continued
story, Not Wanted" For over
twenty years before her death she con-
triblted poems to the The New York
Ledger. Among her best known poems
is measuring the Baby" Her first
husband was Capt. }. Lewis Beaver, OF
Carroll county, Md, whose acquain-
tauce she made while he was wound
ell invalid in the Naval Academy hos
pital at Annapolis. They had three
sons, who survive.

Mortgages on Farms to be Part of

The oili. however, passed the House
last Saturday. The following debate
gives some of the reasons advanced
against the bill. The reader will
notice how futile theyssare.
Mr.. Cannon did not believe that
this legi station was wise. All the
letters he had received (and he had
received many npon this subject
were in the shape of protests against
this measure. 1t would not give any
valuable information. He doubted
the value of the statistics which
would be gathered,
Mr.. Tillman advocated the bill and
the amendment. The gentleman
from Illinois (Mr. Cannon) may have
half dozen farmers in his district
who we're opposed to the bill, but
there were half dozen thousand
farmers who we're asking for this
legislation.

Mr.. Henderson was heartily in

tend to say the information receivt1
would be absolutely accurate, neither
would any of the information receiv.

that the agricultural laborers of the
country deserved consideration from

it and settle that vexed question OF

the benefit of the farmers since the
farmers had organized. He hailed
it as an era of approaching good.
Mr.. Buckalew thought that the
provisions of the bill could not be
executed so as to give valuable re-
suits. They would only fool the
farmers. Besides he always distrust.
