Mr.. Edltor.-Your correspondent, "Senex, u
as his name implies is an old man, and has oil
course reaped that wisdom that IS considered
the peculiar heritage of old age We there
fore respectfully remind "Senex" that we
have from very high authority that G Servant
is worthy Of his hire and it comes with bad
grace, after "work well done" to say he does
not need his reward. Ministers, like other
people, cannot olive on air, " they must ap
pear as gentlemen, their education and re-
anement demand it, and its the duty. of their
respective congregations, OF no matter what
religion, to GENEROUSLY contribute to their
support. And to be emphatic If q Servant is
vorthy of his hire" it is no ones business
whether he needs it or not, il is his by right
We are under the opinion that 'Senex' does
not augment the 'pew rents and extras due
his pastor to any extent he does, we are
afraid be is not a ''cheerful giver, t" the one
our Lord loves. ,"Senex" reminds us of the
old hunter whose. flint failed We would
advise 'senexr to try again, but to select an
other subject The court house movement"
''our roads, !, or "county grog shops" might
we'll engage.his hcile aud graceful pea. In
the meantimeit will be interesting to the pub
lie if ''Senexr will give us description of
the ''beautifal. ring which "our generous
pastor promised the most energetic girl in orr
congregation Sarcasm
Wont do ''Senex,n try again. Jnhius.

The Cut Morm.x


There ia still complaint of the cut worm
in tobacco. Owing to the improved prices
for the commodity, plant beds were especially
prepared and protected for early planting and
u largely increased acreage followed for the
tobacco crop. The setting out of plants com
menced about the middle of May, and nearly
the full crop has been planted. But to get a
regular stand it has been found necessary to
replant several times, using in the aggregate
many more plants than at the original plant
ing. The question as to whether full crop
of tobacco will be gotten uader cultivation
depends altogether now upon which will hold
out the longer, the plant beds or the ravenous
cut worms. The cut worms are more de-
structive than ever known before all over the
tobacco growing region ofSouthern Maryland.

Good Bye Pensions.

UVOu Dyc chsiOSs
The Commissioner. Of Pensions, With the
approval Of Secretary Hoke Smith, has issped
the following important order as to sdjndicat-
ing and 61ihg rates of,pension under The act
of June 2Ith, 1890; III:
A claim for pension under the second sec.
ton of the act can only be allowed upon
proof of mental or physical disability Of, a per-
mdasnt character, not the result Of claimants
own vicious habits, incapacitating him from
the performance of manual labor in such de
gree as 10 render him unable to earn a support
No specific injury or disability can, as such,
have pensionable rating under that act, nor
be considered otherwise than as it affects the
capacity OF the claimant to perform ordinary
manual labor. ;y.se
The effect of this order will be to strike OF
many of the old soldiers in this county who
are now drawing pensions. ..aa II

The arrival of warm weather has driven
the bows, like ducks, to the water, says an ex-
change, and the creeks are now visited By the
auphibious youngsters. The temperature OF
the water, however, is yet quite cold, but the
boys do not seem to mind it the least As
the season of bathing and boating in all sizes
of streams proceeds, men and boys who do moi
know how to swim, are of the class who make
up the numerous items of accidental death
from drowning, while veniuring beyond their
depth in the water OF by the upsetting of theil
boat. To knoN how to swim, should be o
