Local Legislation

Several local measures are now
pending for Anne Arundel county.
One is to give the Wicomieo system
Of drawing jurors, that is to draw
the jurors according to the ratio OF
population. Out of the several dis
tricts Annapolis heads the list with
nine out of the forty-sight jurors.
Senator Moss has also bill to settle
the veIsd question of manufactnr-
ing plant exemptions from county
and school taxation by making the
exemption av. years from their es-
adjustment, and after that they
are to come on the local assessment
list. A bill to legalize primary cleo
tons is also mooted This meets
with opposition and it is feared
the Anne Arundel politicians will
make matters worse with the law
than without the law.

completed his fourth biennial report
to the Governor and General As
sembly of the State. The document
making volume of nearly 400
pages, to which are added fifteen
pages OF carefully prepared index,
is the most comprehensive of the
kind thus far issued in Maryland.

and painstaking labor and skill,

of study and reference, Large space
Is taken for very thorough exposi-
tions of he oyster aud coal indus

ed no less interesting than thorough
considering the material at hand for
sWcn WORK.
Taken as a WHOLE" says Stats
tician Weeks, "the industries of
Maryland have increased in mum
be- and prosperity during the past
two years. Wages have had an up
ward tendency, and employment
has been reasonably certain. There
are few States which, for situation
and natural advantages, are so well
adapted to the support of an indus
trial community. Yet while Ter
lands and waters, SO easily reached
aud so prolific, invite the multi
tude to labor, how many pass by her

THE LEAP YEAR BALL.

1t Was Thorough Success, AltEOue h
Sumo OF the Gentlemen Failed to
CIasrIy Observe the Etiquette Ct tho
Function.
The Leap Year ball given at the
Alturas Hotel, last night, vas very
ENJOYABLE, exceedingly Well managed,
and it Melted the sum of s35 10 the
public school fund. 1t was therefore
a success in every respect; and Miss
Braase aud her assistants on the Com
mittee on Arrangements are deserv-
ing Of praise for the thoroughly
business like manner in which they
conducted the function.
The Grand March began at half
past 9 O'clock, when about 40 couples
took their place in the line, and dane
ing was thereafter continued, with a
brief intermission for supper, until
after 3 o'clock this morning.
During the ball the etiquette of
Leap Year balls was strictly adhered
to. No gentlemen were permitted to
leave their seats unaccompanied by
at least one lady, the former duly
called upon their lady partners to
arrange their shoe laces, to bring a
tumbler Of water, to escort them to
TIE door of the dressing rooms or to
the hotel pa'lor for rest, to pay for
the supper, and in every way usual on
such occasions the male biped was
most attentively and delightfully."-
looked after. A few gentlemen per-
sisted IN going out occasionally "to
see man." without taking the
precau,ion to secure a chaperone;
but they were excused for cause.
The total receipts were s72;
expenses, s37-leaving $50 net.

THE WATER TROUBLES.
ihey Will Continue Until Q Sufficient
supply OF Artesian Water Is Secured.

They Will Continue Until q Sufficicut
supply OF Artesian Water Is Secured.
The long-threatened suit to deter.
mine the priority of the respective
rights OF settlers who depend on Wood
River for their supply Of water for
lrriga,ing purposes, has been cons
menced. 1t will doubtless be many
years before it will be determined, as
1t may be taken to the United States
Supreme Court for final adjudication.
In the suit will be involved, as
plaintiff or defendant, every settler in
the valleys of the Big and Little
Wood Rivers, of Silver Creek, and OF
Camas Prairie. Some will be in.
voIved more or less directly, but all
will be. The result must be that at
least one-half of the settlers will be
deprived Of the use of the water supply
upon which they are depending to
mature their crops.
While this suit is pending the
settlers will hardly feel like making
extensive improvements, land will
be like so much dead property in the
hands Of their owners, and all this
region must suffer from the conse-
quent retardation Of development.
In view of this condition of affairs,
why cannot some enterprising men
drive one or more test a1tesian wells
Most of the water of Big and Little
Wood and Lost Rivers, as we'll as
those of many small streams like
Quigley and Indian creeks, are
eventually lost. That is to say, they
sink in the gravelly soil, aud are
thereafter, to all practical purposes,
lost. This lost water sinks through
the earth, but it must finally reach an
impervious substance such as clay or
bedrock.
w GIG "cIIS " Oc NIlVcI VI THIS UcU-
rock, they would inevitably tap a
neverfailing flow Of water that would
amply supply all that can possibly be
needed. The first cost of the wells
would not be very great, and it would
doubtless pay for itself in very short
time.
There is here chance for some one to
make a good thing-a" ten strike"-
because flowing artesian we'll would
prove more lasting, more certain, and
in time even mere profitable than
either gold or silver nine, as its
water could be readily sold at very
remunerative figures.
Who will sink such we'll.

 It grieved me that he should go with out knowing how I was disposed to- ward him. did not want him to go away with the idea that his love was hopeless, because that, thought, would make him sad and unhappy, and I did not want him to suffer for one moment unnecessarily.
