THE COMING SESQUICENTENNIAL
ANNIVERSARY AT FRED
ERICK CITY.
WORK FOR SCHOOL CHILDREN
The MEMORY OF THE AUTHOR OF
THE STAR SPANG1ED
BANNER.

Frederick City, Md, celebrates its sesqui-
centennial anniversary in September of
this year. Said Oliver Wendell Holmes
in his story of thrilling adventure en-
titled my Hunt After the Captain" in
which he describes his search for his
wounded son on the battlefield of Ante
tam: 81 found no lovelier place than old
Frederick, nesting among the Maryland
hills" Few, if indeed any, of our colonial
towns have greater claims to historic
value and honorable distinction than this
quaint city. Next to Baltimore it is the
second city of size and Importance in
Maryland, and has furnished the pivotal
opportunity of many of the most notable
heroes and events which have shaped the
destiny of our nation.
Here, in 1866. Benjamin Franklin, when
Postmaster-Generalf for the colonies, met
with Colonel George Washington and Gen
eral Braddock to concert plan for trans
porting supplies to Fort Duquesne, the
scene afterward of the Iatter's defeat.
Here, in the Frederick County Court,
was first decided in legal manner the I'M

officers and executive committee are among
the representative men and women of the
State. The seal of the association has in
its center the impress OF our national flag,
with large key lying midway across its
staff.
There is a peculiar significance in the
emblem, for. surely, the inspired words
which were born from the anxiety OF that
poet PATRIOTS soul have unlocked more
emotional fervor for this Gland of the brave
and home of the free" than any other.
The story of the birth OF the song cannot
be told too often. 1t was September. 1914.
The British had invaded Baltimore. and
failing to take the city by land decided to
do so by water, by bombarding Fort Nc
Henry. its main defense. Francis Scott
Key (son of the revolutionary hero, John
Ross Key, a young lawyer at Frederick
City, aged "a years, was In Baltimore. His
friend, DR.. William Beanes, planter of

Admiral Cockburn, with their staff officers.
had made their headquarters, was a pris-
oner on one of the British vessels. Fran
els Kew determined to effect his release.
In order to aid him cartel was placed at
his service. Accompanied by John S.
Skinner, agent for the exchange of pris-
oners. he was transferred to the fripate
Surprise commanded by Sir Thomas Cock
burn, the admiraI's son. There he was de-
tanned, and witnessed the conflict during
the long and terrible hours of that night
whose issue he could not know. AS the
struggle ceased and the day dawned his
stripes and bright stars, he and his friend
had watched so "gallantly streaming over
the rampant and then" says a Maryland
deep dimly doomed the gorgeous banner
fluttering in the first rays of the morning
sun, he exclaimed triumphantiy:
IT'S the starspansled Banner! oh, long may it
Der the land of the free and the home of the
brave.
The immortal poem was first written
upon the back of a letter A few days later
it was published in Baltimore newspaper.
When the first copy came from the press it
was seized by two strolling Thespians, Fer
dinand and Charles Durand, who were en-
rolled among the Pennsylvania militia, was
adapted to the music of an ode called

constitutionality of the odious stamp act
OF 1865. The 30th of next November will
be 100 years since mock funeral process
sion, in which coffin was solemnly borne
by the "Sons of Liberty" marched
through the long main street. Upon the
coffin was this inscription: "The stamp
act expired of a mortal stab received from
the Genius OF Liberty, in Frederick County
Court, November 30, 1765, aged % DAYS. :"
From here, ten years later, marched
several companies of Maryland's hardy
pioneers to the camp around Boston, and
at the battle of Brooklyn Heights poured
out their blood like water in stemming
the advance of the whole left wing of the
British army.
Here, the Tory conspiracy of 1871 was
provldentially discovered by a vigilant
body of Maryland patriots, and seven of
the leaders were executed in the yard of
the courthouse.
Here, during revolutionary times.
Charles Carroll of Carrollton, one of the
knightliest of men, spent some of his
happiest hours in the elegant society of his
intellectual peers, many of whose names.
like his own, are immortal
Here the Marquis de Lafayette, on the
occasion of his second visit to the United
States in 1896, was royalty entertained, as
befitted the gratitude of patriots Here in
1915, during the Mexican War, to which
maryid1o furnished one thousand men.
General Scott held his military court: and
in 1864, through the same street along
which was carried the coffin containing the
effigy of the murdered stamp act, marched
the Army of the Potomac, singing as they
strobe:
John Browns body lies moldering In the ground.
But his soul is marching
Here the patriots General Roger Nelson,
Colonel John Lynn and Thomas Johnson,
first Governor of Maryland, had their
homes. The latter had the proud distinc-
ton of having nominated Washington for
commander-in-chief of the army. And
here lie, among other distinguished dead

and his illustrious brother-in-law, Francis
Scott Key.
1t seems eminently BETTING that the
dust of the author of our national anthem,
''The Star-spangled Banner" should rest
in locality so alive with memories dear
to his patriotic spirit, and still more so that
national monument shall be placed dur
ing this sesqui-centennia year over that
honored grave which, since 1S43-the date
of the poets death-has been marked in
Mount Olivet Cemetery, only by simple
headstone of white marble.

the Key Monument Association of Fred

Della Fox, when run down" from over
work, by the advice of the wife of a U. S.
Senator in Washington, tried Paine's Gel
cry compound. She says: ''My spirits
picked up, and at the end of two weeks the
same old eXuberant health with which
nature blessed me had returned

L was a child, and | have never known

The medicine to which I owe so much
is Paines celery compound, and [ have
recommended it to all of my stage ac-
quaintances who have oYertaxed their
brains by too close attention to study, and
all have experienced the same happy re-
suits as myself"
Marie Tempest also, and a host more of
the most eminent artists who appear be-
fore the public, have recently testified to
the wonderful reinyigOrating power of
Palne's celery compound. Their testimony
IS noteworthy, because no class of women
work harder or are under greater nervous
strain.
Women in every walk of life have reason
to be grateful to Prof. Phelps of Dart
mouth, who discovered Paine's celery com
pound. He understood the peculiar weak
ness of the sex. He knew that the back
ache, lassitude. headache, sleeplessness,
and loss of appetite, all mean that the sup
ply of nervous force is low and inadequate
to the demands upon it. The experience

statement about blood flowing.
What did say and repeated was that
there was no possibility of compromise
to be effected, as there was no chance for a
compromise. [ agreed to a meeting with
a committee of the strikers at the request
of some loyal employees of the company.
The following conversation took place: |

will suffer from your actions. You have
personally no cause for your strike and you

"'Yes, replied.
:" How long do you intend to stay here2

"'Till the road is open, I replied.
You will haveto stay here long time ;
they answered.
81 replied that I had lived in Sacra-
mento before and that L thought it a most
beautiful place in which to take up a resi-
dence. Now this is the kind of conversa-
ton which passed. Any statement that
the word blood was used at any time by
me is absurd"
Mr.. Fillmore explained a matter about
which there has been great deal of talk
He said: Charges have been made that
the company has followed the strikers

for this. 1t is all false. We would not
reinstate the strikers, but we never inter
fered with them in getting work elsewhere

men are at work, but [ have refused to

matter.
