After vocal solo by Mr.. Hall the
Rev. ]. NJ Frost of Bangor formerly
pastor of the church delivered an address
upon the subject GLORIOUS Opportu-
mites" He discussed the opportunities
of young men in this country and had
a good deal to say about the sincerity
of devotion to the home and to tho
church during youth. He declared that
600, 900 out of the 800, 900 young men of
this country are estimated to be in a
greater or less degree defled by some
sort of vice.
This is brought about largely by the
general desire to indulge in SO called
"good times 1t is these ''good times"
"a term which to him had come to be
horrible), that resulted in.these.vices in
so large proportion of our young men.
The programme closed with another

sheriff Bcrry's Failure to Read
II Ia Him Causes Comment.

The action of Sheriff Berry, of Car
oline county, in not officially inform
ing murderer Marshall +. Price who
killed school girl Sallie i. Dean, that
he is 10 be hanged July ), is severely
criticised by the police department
Price has but little over Il month to
live, and beyond what he has read in
the newspapers and heard from his
relatives he has no intimation of his
approaching end.
1t is customary in this state for the
sheriff to notify persons under sentence
of death ut least six weeks before the
date Of their execution, that the law
must be carried out, in order to give
them time to prepare for the other
world. A death-watch is then placed
on the prisoner, which is not relaxed
till he Is led forth to execution.
1t is intimated that the sheriff is
trying to save money for the county,
as it will cost about $3.50 per day
extra after the death watch is set.
Warden Constantine saws he's received
no notification that Berry is coming in
the near future and will not place the
death watch on Price until the sheriff
takes some action
