LAUREL.

Laurel has been quite lively during the
last few days.
DIR. and Mrs. John Cronmiller celebrated
their silver wedding, at which many Of
their old friends gathered to congratulate
them and to bring them suitable presents
as tokens of the high appreciation in which
the worthy couple are held. Numerous
friends from Baltimore and elsewhere per
took of the hospitality which charlcIerizes
the doctor and his wife, and wished that
both of them might live to the golden pc
Rod
On Tuesday night the Laurel Dramatic
Club gave a play at the Academy Of Music
for the benefit of st. Philips Church, in
which many young society people took part,
rendering very creditably the play entitled
War to the Knife
Last night an Experience Party was
given at the residence of Capt. J. w. Col
Inns in aid of the First Baptist Church, which
was attended by nearly one hundred per-
sons. Quite a large sum was realized.
AT Centenary VI. h. Church the Sunday
school and choir gave a very interesting
Thanksgiving exercise. which had been post
poned from Sunday night on account of the
weather.
While both of the above mentioned enter
tainments were in progress quiet wedding
was being solemnized at the residence of
the bride on Post Office avenue Miss Edith
Watkins and AIr. W. ). Beall were united in
marriage by Rev. j. II. kaufman of the
NJ. Z. Church South. After the ceremony
the newly welded couple departed for their
new home in Howard county.
The talk of the town is the daring and
successful escape of prisoner from the
city hall this week. Bailiff Robey arrested
a man for obtaining money under false pre-
lenses and carrying concealed weapons. 1t
being too late to take the man to Jail, he
was placed in charge of four men as guards.
O'clock q although
handcuffed. he made dash for the window
and threw himself out of the Second-story
window to the ground. about fifteen feet
He landed without serious injury and made
his escape. He was next heard of about six
miles from Laurel. where he stopped and
got breakfast, passing himself off de-
tective who had been waylaid and robbed
by tramps, at the same time showing the
handouts. which he had managed TO re-
move. as proof of him being an officer.
This man may be wanted elsewhere, as he
is evidently adept at tricks, giving no
less than three different names. Doe Lewis
Lafayette and Reed He has since been ar
rested and is now in Marlboro jail.
