Chalk and Charcoal.

George E. Little wins wherever he
goes-wins large audiences by his
proficiency as described lately by the
Aryus, published at Albany, N. Y.
See what it says:
Prof. Little's skill with crayon is really
wonderful and very novel. A few rapid
strokes, would, without erasure, transform
one caricature into another in a very brief
space Of time. Mr.. Little Kept his large
audience in delightful state from the be-
ginning to the end Of his lecture. His run
ming conversation was delightful. and he
possesses a eonfding manner which is mag
netie.
Mr.. Little will demonstrate his skill
on the platform of Meats Opera
House Wednesday evening, March 4.

of the best practical result.

The Frostburg fire department have
a fair in prospect. Patronize it.
The JOURNAL is indebted to F. C.
Beall for liberal treat of sweet
oranges from his Florida orchard.
They are toothsome samples of large
lot he has on hand for sale to mer-
chants only. To take them off his
hands, instead of buying from far
away houses, is in a considerable de-
gree equivalent to patronizing home
industry. They are undeEiably good
goods, and, OF course, Just as cheap, il
not cheaper IN first hands than they
can be sold by second and third hand
jobbers.
Watch for the sale this morning OF
Frostburg water company's bonds.

God-Speed Meeting.

At the Congregational church Mon

"God-speed" to the retiring pastor,
Rev. B. Harris The Council of the
church read an appreciatlve address,
to which he responded with much
emotion. Messrs. John ,Rees and
Enoch Pritchard, the latter superin-
tendent of the Sunday school, deliver
ed brief addresses. DR.. Leech, who,
bv special invitation of the Council,
presided over the meeting, made an
address, and also presented Mr.. Harris
with a splendid ebony gold headed
cane with an inscription. The chair
man spoke of the gold head as a SYM
Dol of the purity of u true ministers
character, and the cane itself as the
symbol of the firm support which in
life and death he hoped the recipient
would find in the gospel which he had
preached to others. A pleasant fea
ture of the affair was the presence of
Rev. Messrs. Thomas, Gekeler, Thorn
son and Miller. with happy addresses
by each. This intermingling of min
listers of the different churches should
be largely cultivated, for it impresses
the churches and the outside world
most favorably. The choir added
greatly to the occasion with some fine
singing. "God be With You Till We
Meet Again." specially inspired, it
would seem, for such services-was
sung, followed by the benedlction at
closing.

in the spirit that inspired the western

Geo. Muller and Wheat.

Mr.. Geo. Muller, suddenly bloomed
forth as a mighty advocate of hold
ing wheat, with an office rented on
Wabasha Street, and a million "Sup-
plements to the State" to distribute,
printed for him in New York City.
Up to four days before this stunning
event transpired his paper had never
uttered ONE WORD in regard to "hold-
ing wheat AS it had been a part
OF the trenchant policy of the editor
OF the GREAT WEST to urge this mat
ter for four entire years, this sudden
conversion OF Muller took our breath
away. We are glad of it.
Every man present at that ever
memorable meeting of the State Al
lance, on March 4th, 1890, when DR..
Fish made that assault on the wheat
ring which was echoed in three legis-
latures and on the floor of Congress,
will remember that we took up the
matter of the Wheat Trust de
claring that if the farmers would
hold back one-fourth or one-half of
the crop by organized action they
could force wheat to 81. so Unjust ten
days! Before Muller ever dreamed of
his fat employment the GREAT WEST
published ''Hold Your Wheat" arti-
cles under big black headlines.
Now Mr.. Muller, before the "State''
uttered it's first solitary word in this
direction, had himself quoted in the
city papers as follows:
"Mr. Donnelly's organ, The GREAT
WEST, has recently given the same
advice, and claims priority. The on
~ difference seems to be that when he
and his organ give the advice it is all
right, while when we give it, the farm
er is in danger of being led astray."
That is it exactly. When the G. W.
gives advice the farmer will find, and
knows he finds, that advice on the
right side. But when it comes from
Mr.. Muller they are, of course afraid
OF it, and so are we. The very mo-
ment Mr.. Muller suddenly 'grasped
this idea" and his New York supple
ments, we became suspicious OF the
matter and so will the farmers.
But we want to say right here
and say it as the GREAT WEST, and
not the Alliance, that if the farmers
will generally hold their wheat until
January options are ready to "set-
tle," and keep on, if possible till May,
they will reap reward. But, if they
could put the time ofsale of but one
fourth the crop in the hands of a
Board they could reap just what they
please!
Mr.. Donnelly's letter is timely and
just. The Alliance as body have
taken no action upon this thing
and they ought not to. That is all
that Mr.. .Donnelly says-and it is a
grand saying on his part, and timely.
