.Nutos Of Our Climb.

The ball is on the roll. The meeting al
h1ded TO in an issue of the BEACON few
", seks back, TO be called for the purpose of
reorganization of the Leonardtown Base
ball Club, was held with very satisfactory
results. Mr.. James Greenwich, of Mediey's
Neck, was elected President of the Associ-
alton; Roger Combs, Secretary; Harry Fen
wick, TrC asurer, and Manning Combs Cap
tain of the Club. When the Club appears
upon the diamond for the first time, its ad-
mircrs will vainly look for that hard-work-
ing player of vim, Ford Combs, as well as
the slugger Harry Jones, the weight of
whose ash scored many run for his team,
and Ford Yates, who enjoyed the reputa-
ton of being the best coacher Leonardtown
ever boosted of. The team feels keenly the
loss OF these men, but in their places are to
be seen men who can and will follow the
example of their predecessors, Messrs. Geo.
Combs, Chas. Cough and p. ii. Dorsey.
With these exceptions the composition Of
the team will be similar to last season.
II will be made up thus Messrs. James
Greenwich, George Locker, Harry Fenwick,
Roger Combs, Charles Cough, George Cry
er, Philip II. Dorsey and Manning Combs.
With practice, which will be gotten as soon
as the grounds are fit, these men ought to
put up good game. Messrs. Felix Fen.
wick and George Loker and Manning
Combs, the committee appointed to look
to the preparation of the grounds, have
nearly completed their labors. The same
lot as of last year has been secured, the en-
closure repaired, the diamond and out field
narrowed, rolled and made smooth, and
with the erection of the seats, which are TO
be put up this week, they will be complete
The Club cannot cope with teams outside
of the county till the Summer vacations
and the boys return from school, but il is
now ready and anxious to arrange games
with teams throughout the county. An
outfit and new uniforms are TO be gotten,
to defray which expense play will be
gotten up under the auspices of the Base
ball Club during the Summer. May it
prosper. S.

The game between the Charlotte Hall

Saturday, May 9th. The result was q de-
cisive victory for the Cadets. For the first
few innings, the closeness of the score
kept all present interested, but as soon as
the Cadets got on to the opposite pitcher
they pounded him all over the field, Rob-

THE ROAD LAW.

The provisions of the new road law
are now the pertinent topic Of inquiry
among the citizens of the State, es.
pecially those who live in the country.
II has been the aim of the trainers Of
the law to relieve the farmer of cash
payment of taxes, but recognizing the
small value of the old method of
working out road taxes, the law pro.
vides q slightly different means. A
road tax is levied with peualty for
non payment within a specified tIme,
but it is provided that the labor on the
roads shall be hired as much as may
be from within the limits OF the Dor
ough in which the work is done, wages
to be paid at the rate of $3.50 a day.
The making and maintenance of roads
is vested 10 a board of three supervis
ors for each county, to be elected for
three years each, one each year. The
supervisors are to serve without pay.
The work of making estimates, super
vising and directing road. building, is
to be done by a county engineer. He
is to receive a compensation of $685.
for each day he is at work. An uni.
form system Of road. making is pro.
vidod for and provisions made so that
the work may be coherent and result
in a system of connecting roads
through the State. This is a general.
cation Of a very carefully prepared
law, which is the result of a large
amount of work, of comparing the
experience Of various road builders,
and covers, as we'll as a general law
may, the needs of the different por.
tions Of the State, while sufficiently
elastic to allow for local peculiarities.
1t is framed in a business.like way and
appears to merit the commentator of
those concerned for the Improvement
of the roads of the Commonwealth.
