Mr.. sStarlings has made one of the most
efficient and methodical clerks the coun-
ty has eyer had. He says 1t took him
but short time to get the hang of the
office routine. and after that, it was plain
sailing, and he has so systematized the
work of the Office that it Is no trouble
for anyone seeking information with the
office to find just what they want. The
working facilities of the Board depend
greatly upon the efficiency of their clerk,
who can very materially enlighten and
facilitate their labors. Mr.. Starlings has
proven himself TO be the right man in
the right place.

Keeper to the Almshouse.

The trustees of the county almshouse
met today at the county house on South
river, for the purpose of selecting a
keeper In the place of Elijah j. Rock
hold, who was requested to resign.
There was full board present. A num-
Der of friends of the several applicants
also went down In the interest of their
candidate. There were several appli-
cants for the position. Among them w.
d. Lee, the former keeper, d. w. Hig-
gins, and VIM. F. Leitch. Chas. Lewis,
and Henry Baldwin. Mr.. Rockhold, tn Q
keeper, appeared before the board, and
made q statement in his own defence
against charges preferred against him.
and apologized to the board for his con-
duct, and asked the board to give him
another trial, promising to do better in
the future. The board was not disposed
to act hastily In the matter, and believ-
ing that Mr.. Rockhold was sorry for
what he had done, and that 1t was done
ON the spur of the moment, when his
feelings got the better of his Judgment,
they were willing to give him another
trial, and agreed to continue him In his
present position conditionally.

THE TUCKER PROPERTY.
Anne ArundeI's Insane Hospital.

/
For several years past our county has
been put to great expense TO say nothing
of the Inconvenience Of its pauper luna
tics. Every institution In the State has
become oYercrowded with this unfortu-
nate class of people. and the county has
been compelled 10 keep them in unsui-
table quarters at the almshouse. while
| the Sheriff of the county has had TO &C
eommodate several in the jail The Court,
Judge Miller on the bench. has called
the attention of the grand jury TO this
4 state Of affairs AT several terms of Court
The grand Jury in their report have re-
commended that this class of unforiu-
mates on the bounty of the county, be re-
moved from these places of confinement
TO some insane asylum where they could
receive proper treatment, but this could
not be done on account of their crowded
| condition. An effort was made at the
last legislature TO get an appropriation
for new hospital, but without success.
Taking all these facts into consideration,
our county commissioners were consulted
upon buying what is known as the
fucker Mansion" and farm of 155 acres
situated on high and beautiful knoll
on the banks of south River. Several of
our prominent citizens appeared before
the board of commissioners and urged
them to purchase this property as place
most suitable for this purpose. The
board finally appointed committee of
three to visit the property and inspect it,
and TO report at its next meeting. The
committee were very favorably impress
ed with the location and also the prop
erty. They reported the house to be a
large brick mansion, substantially built,
with wide halls running through 1t on
oil tho donro. xualI ventilated 0nH lfnhf-
ed. and containing some thirteen rooms.
The house cost originally over $6000;the
land is in fair State of cultivation and
very susceptible TO Improvement. After
advising with their counsellor on the
subject and consulting over the matter,
the board decided to buy the property
at the price offered $1,000, for the farm
and improvements. 1t is the intention
of the board to fit the place up properly
and To remove the almshouse on the
same farm, and put the whole under one
superintendent The two buildings will
be entirely separate and distinct and far
| enough apart as not TO interfere with
the inmates of the other. The farm Will
be rented out after reserYing enough
land to supply the institutions with veg
etables. 1t is claimed that the county
will save several thousand dollars an
nually to the tax payers by the transac-
ton. The county now pays $4,000 to
the Maryland Hospital for the Insane,
and $1,000 estimated to the Frederick
hospital, making total of So 600 an
nually, besides maintaining several
| Others at the almshouse. The purchase
b. generally accepted as very judicious
one, and one that will save the tax pay
ers of the county many thousands OF
dollars In the end.

Had Faith in the limited /.

The perfection to whssh the art of
railroading has been carr led in these
DAYS had striking illustration last week
in the case of prominent New York
lawyer, who was passenger on the
Chicago Limited on the Pennsylvania
Railroad He had an important suit
pending in the United States Court of
Chicago, which was to be called at ten
O'Clock on Tuesday morning. 1t was
absolutely essential that he should be
there on time, but on account of pres
sure OF business he could not leave New
York before Sunday. The alternative
was then offered him of taking Sunday
afternoon train and spending two nights
on the road, or of waiting until Monday
morning and taking the Chicago Limi-
ted. which would land him in Chicago
at 9.35 on Tuesday morning.
The consequence might possibly be
serious if the Limited should be late In
reaching Chicago; but, trusting to its
well-earned reputation for being always
on time, the New Yorker decided to
take il and run the risk The result
showed that his confidence was not mis-
placed. Exactly at 9.45 on Tuesday
morning the Limited rolled in the Union
Station at Chicago. Jumping into cab
with his wife the lawyer was driven to
the temple of justice. where Judge Gresh-
am presided He reached 1t In eight
minutes, and few moments later was
in the courtroom The court opened
promptly at ten o'clock and his case was
called first on the list.
Just twenty-four hours after leaving
New York he was addressing the court
In Chicago, feeling as fresh and vigorous
after his luxurious trip as If he had just
come from his own home. 1t might add
to the story 10 say that after concluding
his argument he took another train back
to New York, and was in court there on
Wednesday, as usual, but he didn't. He
stayed in Chicago to see the Democratic
Convention, and came back at his leis-
ure.

The Maryland Agricultural Col
Iege

There was no election of president OF
the Maryland Agricultural College at the
meeting held in Governor Browns pri-

postponed until next Thursday by vote
of 8 to 8, when another meeting will be
held at the same place. The trustees re-
ceived and unanimously adopted the re-
port of the committee of inquiry which
has been making an examination OF the
management and affairs of the college
for two months. The committee, among
other matters, report that the general
condition of the college and college farm
is unsatisfactory, and by lack of prac-
tical management as to both, and we re-
commend a reorganization of the facul-
ty. Prof. r. w. Sylvester, principal OF

dency of the College.
