French Government Tobacco Contract.

On June at Paris the French govern
ment will award the contract for 100000
Kilograms Of Maryland and 500,0 900 kilo-
grams of Ohio tobacco. The samples of
tobacco required by the government are
now at the French consular agency on
Postofiice avenue for the inspection Of bid
ders for the contracts The bids are made
up by the tobacco buyers of this city and
forwarded To their correspondents in Paris,
who submit them TO the French govern
ment. The quantity required for the
French contract this year will be between
5000 and $500 hogsheads of Maryland and
1900 hogsheads of Ohio Tobacco. Last
year the contract called for 100000 kilo
grams Of the Maryland crop. Mr.. Henry
Lauts thinks the Maryland crop of this
year will not be sufficient to meet the
French requirement, and that the success
full bidder will have TO make up from last
years crop.-SuR.

Death Of Thomas A. Lynch.

DIR. Thomas Alexander Lynch died at
his home in the Second Election District
Friday, May 10, 1893, in the 6Sth year of
his age. For many years DR.. Lynch was
a prominent figure in st. Mary's affairs and
took an active part in all the stirring incl
dents of the wartime generation. In later
years his health would not permit him 10
take his former interest in county politics,
but he continued in the active practice of
his profession up TO a short time before his
death. Paralysis is said to have been the
cause of death. The stroke which termi-
mated DIR. I.ynch's life came Wednesday of
last week, and he remained unconscious
until Friday, when death ensued. In
1875, DR.. Lynch was the Democratic can
didate for the State Senate, and was re-
turned as defeated by Capt Asa A. Law
renee by plurality of votes. A recount
of the ballots cast gave the election to DR..
Lynch by plurality of 4. but the Senate
gave the seat to Capt Lawrence on the
ground that the return Judge of one district
had permitted the ballots TO pass from his
possession before they had been turned
over to their proper custodian, the Clerk of
the Circuit Court.
DIR. Lynch was for long time a men,
Der of the State Central Committee of his
party for this county. He was an excel
lent physician and stood high in his pro-
fession. He was brother of the late DIR.
Stephen Lynch, of Baltimore, and is said
TO have been lineal descendent of Thorn
as Lynch, of South Carolina, one of the
signers CT the Declaration of Independence.
lie married Miss Hooper, of Baltimore
county, who, with two sons, survive him.
One of his sons, DIR. Hooper Lynch, prac.
tees in st. Inigo's district, of this county,
and the other, Derby Lynch, Esq is rising
young law yer Of Brownwood, Brown coun.
ty, Texas. DR.. Lynch was buried Sunday
last in the graveyard of Poplar Hill church
and the appreciation in which he was held
was attested by the large attendance at his
funeral

Cheap Disinfectants.

This being the season Of the year when
garbage is being removed from yards, cell
lars and out-of the way places are being
cleared mp, and ashes and refuse matter are
removed from cellars, the liberal use of
lime, or other cheap disinfectants, may
save serious illness and heavy doctors bills
late in the season. An exchange gives the
following directions for making cheap dis
infectants, and at the same time good ones:
"a pound Of copperes dissolved in one
quart of boiling water, then put into q cask
containing more water-say four or five
gallons-makes capital liquor disinfectant.
Air Stacked, fresh lime literally used in
damp cellars, coal vaults and out houses
prevent sickness and unpleasant odors dur
ing warm weather. Powdered charcoal is
also used by many people"

A Kent County Settlement.

st. Mary's county is the home of quite
number of Kent countians and large tracts
of land are held by some of our leading
citizens. Messrs. II. w. Vickers and VIM.
]. Vannort are large owners of land in that
county, while others from Kent have
bought places and removed thence. Mr..
Samuel L. Rawleigh, formerly of Chester
town, now one Of the most prominent pol
iticians in that county, is farming on a
large scale. Mr.. Bevins Morris, of Morgan
Creek Neck, has purchased large tract of
land in that county, and in company with
Mr.. George A. Joiner and wife, and Mr..
Daniel L. Ruth and wife, left this county
to possess the goodly country. Mr.. Morris
does not expect TO remain and will leave
the tract in the hands of Messrs. Joiner and
Ruth. A letter IRON these settlers to friends
in Kent few days ago was indeed an in
teresting article. II stated that there is in
the farm seven hundred and forty five acres,
1t is situated on ST. Mary's river and is
known as "Jutland" because of its jutting
out into the river, being surrounded by
water. The house is quite old and was
probably bnilt before the war as the chin.
ney is on the outside of the house, and has
other peculiarities. One can stand on the
front porch and throw stones in the water
in three directions, the point, with high
banks, reminding one of a cape. There are
! at least twenty or thirty buildings on The
farm, which make the place look like a
town. When the tide is low one can pick
up all the oysters he wants, and nice ones,
too, Good water is obtained from an ar;e.
