The State Farmers Convention.

Judge Edward Stake, President of the
Maryland State Farmers Association, an
nounces that the next annual convention
will be held in Baltimore on the second Wed
nesday Of January next, the 18th of the
month. II will be composed of delegates
from each Fairness Association, Farmers
Club or Agricultural Association in the
State. In addition to delegates from such
organizations, the farmers of each county are
urged to hold voluntary meetings and choose
rs their representatives in the convention as
many delegates as the county has representa-
tives in the General Assembly of the State.
For Hartford county the number is five.
It is proposed to have the convention sit
for three days, its proceedings beginning with
the annual address Of the President on the
first day, an address by the Secretary of Ag-
riculture on the second day, and addresses on
fruit culture, stock breeding, commercial
fertilizers, &c, on the third day. The con-
vention will likewise consider the subject of
legislation to secure the improvement of our
public roads, a new assessment law, and an
equitable system of taxation, adapted to pro-
mote the agricultural interests of the State.
These annual meetings of farmers of the
State, OF which this will be the seventh, have
not only been interesting and instructive, and
If they have resulted in nothing more they
hays, at least, made the farmers of the State
better acquainted with each other. The Leg
islature is occupied with 30 many things that
it cannot give due consideration to the inter-
ests of farmers. It is well, therefore, for in
telligent and progressive farmers to meet to-
gether and agree upon the legislation neededto
benefit their condition. The Legislature, no
doubt, would give attentive consideration to
suggestions made by the convention. Ope OF
the most important subjects which the con-
vention could consider is the formulation ola
plan for the betterment of our public roads.
The agitation of this subject has already re-
suited in great good, but well-detned
policy, involving State aid, seems to be need

one of them thrust his hand through fence
for the purpose of opening a gate setter dog
which was running by seized his arm above the
wrist, the dogs teeth penetrating through the
mans coat and Undertaking to the skim
Being unable to shake the dog loose Unik
reached his other hand over the fence and
graspsd it by the collar, holding it in
this manner while his brother procured a rope
and tied the animal to the fence. The dog,
besides an ordinary collar, had on a collar with
tax tag, indicating that it came from Havre
de Grace. The dog being thus secured, Rev.
Collins, colored neighbor, shot and killed the
animal with pistol. DR.. Opperman found
that the dogs teeth had merely bruised the
flesh on Unik's arm and had not entered the
skin. As matter of precaution, however, he
cauterized the wound, and thinks no serious
results will follow the bite. The Doctor also
made post mortem examination Of the dog,
and found in its stomach only a small quanti-
ty of straw-an indication that it was rsbid
The same dog passed through Bush, the same
day, and bit q dog and goose belonging to

Arrangements are being made by the
Chesapeake Bay Dog Club for an exhibition
at the Worlds Fair at Chicago of wild duck
shooting on the flats at Havre de Grace. 1t
is proposed to place on the lake double sink
box and stool of 500 decoys. Another lay
out of decoys will represent buskwhack
shooting. There will also be big-gun skiff
on which will be mounted the big gun used
by the father of the great Havre de Grace
gunner, Wash. Barnes. One or more expert
duck shooters will be in attendance. At in
tervals the bushwhack boat will be sculled
out to the decoys and blank shell will be
fired. Then the big-gu skiff will be padded
out with the customary short paddles, and
when at the proper distance load of powder
will be fired from the gun. The attendants
will also show how expertly they can handle
themselves. They will show how easy it is
after one learns how, 10 throw ones feet out
and TO turn and shoot at ducks coming at
the head of the box or from any quarter.
Pure-bred Chesapeake Bay dogs will also be
exhibited, a tolling-blind and its mode Of
operation shown, and the quickness with
which an expert can take up decoys will also
be demonstrated. This feature will doubtless
be as attractive and interesting as any other
at the fair.

Last Friday two men, one carrying
small satchel, entered the Office of Russell
Sage, the New York millionaire. and inquired
{or Mr.. Sage Being admitted to the private
office the man with the satchel said to Mr..
Sage: I'VE want one million two hundred
thousand dollars. We want them right here
and now" Mr.. Sage, concluding that the man
was a crank, said that it was great deal of
money and he would have to think about it.
The visitor replied "We cannot wait. The
money is wanted now. In this satchel have
dynamite-pounds of it. Unless you hand
over the money up she goes" Mr.. Sage
made another effort to temporize and told the
visitor be must come again. At the word
the man raised the satchel at arms length.
"You will not?" he shouted. "Then here
goes" A tremendous explosion followed.
The building was wrecked. The dynamiter
was blown to pieces, his head being severed
from his body. Mr.. Sage was rendered un-
conscious but was only slightly hurt. Two
of Mr.. Sage's clerks were killed and several
other persons badly injured. The dynamiter'
it was ascertained, was II. D. Wilson, an es-
capped lunatic. Mr.. Sage had previously re-
ceived threatening letters signed James Walsh
demanding the sum named by the mailman.
There seems to be general agreement that
more stringent regulations are needed for the
sale or use of dynamite.
