DEMOCRATIC MEETINGs.-The various Dem
ocratic meetings held in the county have all
been well attended. The object sought to be
ticket has been fully explained and Democrats
are rapidly falling into line in support of their
entire ticket.
The mass meeting at South Delta, on Thurs
day night of last week, was a large and enthu-
siastic one. A logical and convincing address
was made by Mir George L. VanBibber, who
pointed out, by facts and figures, the unrea-
sonable ami iimsy character of the allegations
made against the Democratic candidates, for
political effect, and urged Democrats to stand
by their regular and fairly nominated ticket.
Effective speeches were also made by Mr..
James S. Robinson, an Anne Arundel county
farmer, Mr.. c. c. Rhodes, of Baltimore, and
Mr.. Thomas II. Robinson.
Seventy-five or eighty persons attended a
meeting at Norrisville, last Saturday night.

selves on election day.

diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure Deafness, and that is by conStitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets infam-
ed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect
hearing, and when it is entirely closed Deafness
is the result, and unless the Inflammation can
be taken out and this tube restored to its nor
NAL condition. hearing will be destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by CA
tarrh, which is nothing but an intamed cOndi-
ton of the mucous surfaces.

Co-education prevails with ven
geance at the Wesleyan College of
Delaware, o., where hazing has
been reduced to fine art among
the female as well as the male stu
dents. One evening last week,
while the young ladies of class
fraternity were holding private
meeting number of their class
mates broke in upon them. With
solution of nitrate of silver the
invading party painted pictures
upon the naked breasts and arms Of
their victims. A reception was TO
have been held the following even
ing. aud the ''caustic pictures
could only be concealed under long
sleeves and high-necked dresses.
On the night Of this new develop
meut Of "Lude art" the male
SUphOmOres OF the same institution
broke into Il meeting Of the juniors
and treated the faces of those youths
to severe doses of caustic. Accord
ing to the reports the boys were
stripped, laid upon their faces and
beaten with red-hot fire shovel. >
No reason has yet been given for
such novel methods of brilliant fun.
The gratifying feature of the bust
ness is that warrants were sworn
out for nine Of the ''humOrists,
and that under the Revised Statutes
such joking is rewarded with from
one to twenty years in the peniten-
tiary. NeUS.
