Lieutenant Davis of the Adjutant- Gen

the regiments and companies OF the State
militia on a map OF Maryland, which will
be filed in the War Department.
This Is encampment year, but as vet,
nothing has been done toward furthuring
the pleasure OF the members Of the State
militia In this regard When the Gov
ernor RECEIVERS he will probably give this
question his early attention. II is thought
By some that an encampment this SUM-
mer will be productive of little good a.
there are indications of q thin attend
ance, every militiaman who has the time
probably preferring to visit the Worlds
Fair. 1t seems the best of ideas to spend
all money which would be thus used In
placing the brigade on q war-footing.
This would be of very decided advantage
for years to come, and would rebound to
the credit of the State.

At Harris, Academy Next Week


"a Texas Steer" will be given at Har-
ris Academy of Music b Gilmore, for
one week. beginning with matinee on
Easter Monday, April 3rd Charles II.
Hoyts phenomenal success with "a
Texas Steer everywhere that II has been
produced. has aroused the curiosity of
play goers and created an extraordinary
demand for seats at Harris Academy
earlier In the season. The piece is de-
scribed as q comedy, and In it's compost
tton Hoyt has proved himself capable of
taking prominent place among Ameri-
can dramstists. The prologue shows how
in Texas, a cattle king Is elected to Con
gress. much against his will. The re.
mainder of the comedy shows bis polili-
cal career in Washington. The cattle
king has bright. plucky daughter, who
has military admirer in Texas. When
he encounters her at the Capitol ne Ia
somewhat ashamed OF her unsophistaca-
ted WAYS She quickly detects this and
adapting herself TO her surroundings soon
manages to hold her own in the best OF
society The piece is q clever combina-
tIon of pathos and humor and Is inspired
by actual facts. Tim Murphy and the
original company, including VIII. III.
Bray, AZ the Minister to Dahoney, I"
John Marshall as Fairleigh Bright, and
o. ii Barr, as "Brassy Gall" will be
seen here. In this clever satire, the wiles
OF politician are given full exposition
The repeater, the bulldo2er, the ballot
box suffer, at election time, the lobby
ist, male and female. and their work at
the Capital, the gradual transformation
OF the innocent, honest ranchman, into
the deceitful politician, and self seeking
legislator, the plans for reelection, the
rampant oti1ce-seeker, in full bloom at
first, but gradually sliding down the
scale. until mendicancy and despair are
reached, all are portrayed wildly.

In compliance with an order issued BY
the Board. requiring them TO appear

the representatives OF these rosds that
II was their intention TO increase their
assessment at the same rate similar cor
porations were paying other counties Ia
the State through which they passed.
Arguments were made by the several
representatives why their assessments
should not be increased, among them
that they had more than doubled the
value Of property In the districts through
which they run, thereby greatly increas-
ing the basis of taxation. The Board
listened with much attention TO all that
was said, and stated they would take the
matter under advisement, an } consult With
their counsel, before they would act in
the matter; but we're still of the opinion
that the assessment should be increased
