The Prohibitionists a. the Sun

-
The prohibition meeting appointed for
this place on Monday evening last, met
with adverse weather which resulted
in a very small audience. The day
which had been fair and promising
terminated in a thuder gust and about
dark, rain began to fall which was
accompanied by very dark night
The meeting was addressed by Rev.
Cornelius Prettyman of Paramount,
Nd, and Rev. T. A. b. O'Brien of the
M. e. Church of Cecilton. Both speak
ers made strong prohibition speeches,
but as Ia the wont of that class of
speakers their appeals were largely to
the emotional instincts of their
audience. which is mostly a waste OF
time. Emotional effect is very eva
nescent. It is much more profitable to
ply the reason than the tear ducts of
an audience when discussing political
measures. When methodist preachers
learn this fact they viii become far
more effective prohibition speakers.
The sentimensalisms they use so freely
are pretty much lost time and effort.
Their effect Is all gone as soon as the
audience get out in the open air.
The anecdote told by Mr.. OiBrien of
the burnt rag to disguise the smell at a
negro meeting In closed church
somewhere In the South is fairly ex-
emplified in the campaign this fall be-
tween the organs Of the two old parties
They have spent the time in burning
rags to conceal the bad smell of their
past records. But it won't do 1t, the
stencil of the political rottenness is
stronger than their burning rags.

the Press reporter on Monday, who

would take one person sixteen days
to fold them alone Cecil Democrat.

Buncos About.

On Friday last short time after
noon, the town was thrown into a
state of excitement by the announce
ment that Mr.. Carlton Kimble had
been robbed of $2,s0O by couple of
sharps who it was soon learned had
played the bunco game on him of
pretending they we're in search of a
farm to purchase. The steerer called
on Mr.. Kimble abont noon, having
driven up from Port Deposit where
he had hired horse and buggy of
Mr.. Cummings and introduced him
self as "Warburton of Elkton, don't
you know me?" After viewing the
farm they drove round to have a
further view of the surroundings to
the woods on the Nottingham road
where they met the drunk man who
is always an important factor in the
game, had lots of money-$40, 600
heaps Of dollars tied up in hand
kerchief and belt full. Mr. Kimblc
and his confident friend "Warbur-
ton"(P) felt the belt and from that
moment Mr. K. alleges be became
azed-hypnotised and knew not
what he was about. Mr.. "Warbur
ton"(P) drove into town hastily, and
MIR. Kimble was let out of the buggy
at the corner Of Wilson avenue and
Cherry strees to go to the bank while
his friend went up town to see his
wife who was visiting some of her
frienGs here. He cautioned Mr.. Kim.
BILE to tell "these bank fellows who
were apt to be inquisitive about
things that were none of their busi-
ness" to say he wanted to accommo-
date neighbor. Mr.. Kimble rushed
to the bank. drew out IL or l3 hun.
dred dollars on deposit and gave his
note for the loan of $1,000 for 80
days. In the mean time his friend
"W arburton" drove round to Heagy's
corner where he could have plain
view of the proceedings going on at
the bank and timed it so well as to
be back at the corner OF the Avenue
and Cherry street in time to pick up
Mr.. Kimble and drive back to where
the drunk man with the magic belt
and $4,000 was staying. The
sequel. Tin box---little game-Mr
Kimble gets out of buggy is handed
tin box-drunk man taken in TO be
driven out of the way. In an hour
after Mr.. K. begins to recover from
the touch OF the hypnotiser-detec-
tive association roused-te!egraph
every where-send, out riders to
catch thieves-two thousand dollars
reward offered-swindlers seen driv-
ing rapidly through by-roads towards
Pennsyivania-next day Mr.. Cum
mings got word that his horse buggy
is left at Avondale and 81 in letter
to pay for hire.
It came out after the robbery that
this same counterfeit Warburton had
visited other farmers in the neigh.
borhood short time ago but they
had no farms for sale and nothing
was said aoout it. If the fact had
been made public we would have
published II anu' every body pn.s -en,
the qui vive. There is a popularity |
about farmers. They are secretiye
when they ought to speak, and volu
BILE when they snould hold their
tongues.
