European affairs are in a ticklish
condition. The fanaticism of the Turk
ish people is aroused and if the powers
interfere to protect the Christians, as
they must do sooner or later, a strug,

necessitate extensive military opera
tons. 1t is a good many years since
the fanatical Moslems have been

\ writer in one of the current maya
zines makes a strong plea for the free
delivery of mail in the country the
same as in cities. Japan has such a
service, he says, and lin all the vast
Indian Empire there is not a person,
no matter in what jungle he may live,
10 whom his mail is not delivered"
The main objection urged against it in
this country is that of expense; but
there is reason To believe that the peo-
pie would cheerfully bear the addition
al cost OF thus extending the advan-
tages Of our admirable postal system.

Destructive Fire On Monday last
about noon fire entirely consumed the stable,
carriage house, hay and grain barn, and
other outbuildings on the farm of Mr.. Ed

with an insurance in the Fire Association

machine had been at work near the barn
during the morning and had left about an
hour or two before the fire broke out. I'm
doubleday the flames started from spark
blown from the engine of the threshing ma
chine.
There were 10 barrels Of corn, sixty tons
of hay, a binder, and lot Of other farming
implements, which were lost Mrs. Pres

were discovered, and in her endeaVor TO
save valuable driving horse from the

Condition of the Crops.-Reports to

Condition OF the CrOps.-Reports to
the Agricultural Department at Washing
ton show decline in the conditions of all
the principal crops except oats, rye and bar
ley. The detailed summary made public
on Monday shows a widespread reduction
in the condition of potatoes, due largely to
drought Complaints OF potato rot come
from the Northern and more Southern of
the States adjoining the great lakes, and
Missouri and Kansas. The losses from leaf
blight and insects appear to have been ex-
ceptionslly light. The most serious COM
plant of the potato grower this year is the
lew price of the product, particularly in the
Northwest. The report from the depart
ments agent for Wisconsin and Minnesota
represents that in the latter State the tubers
"do not pay for digging" He states that
the yield is enormous
Sweet potatoes have suffered seriously
from lack of rain and their condition has
been materially reduced In many of the
States. In seven 1t has fallen from ten to
twentytw points.
The condition of tobacco declined over
two points. Ia Ohio, where condition is
the lowest, something over half a crop is
expected, and the same may be said of Mary
land and Virginia. Crops of Massachusetts,
and Connecticut are excellent. Conditions
in New York, Pennsylvania and Kentucky
approximate the average for the country.
Droughts and frosts of the last of September
are causes of lower condition.
The continued drought, hot weather and
high winds of September, causing prema-
ture ripening and dropping, have resulted
in loss of over two points in the average
condition of apples. The greatest losses oc-
Cured in the central district, where the crop
was abundant. 1t is thought both the eat
ing and keeping quality of the fruit has been
much impaired and in many sections ten.
dency to rot is already noted. The average
condition now stands at 70.6.

The sandy spring Electric Road


The Ellicott City correspondent Of the Bal
timore Sun, under date October 10, says:
Mr.. w. r. d. Gascoyne, general agent of
the proposed Washington, Sandy Spring
and Baltimore Electric Railway Company
was in Ellicott City to-day with view of
furthering the plans already made for build
ing the.road through Howard county. A
meeting in the interest of the enterprise has
been called for the 22nd inst. for the pur-
pose of obtaining the views of the people of
this county both as to the amount of capital
that can likely be raised and the most de-
sirable route to be laid out.
The proposed road would connect with
the Edmondson Avenue, Catonsvile and
Ellicott City Electric Railway at this place
and will be one of the three contemplated
branches Of that road, the others being that
from Sandy Spring to Laurel and the line
to Frederick. The route of the proposed
Arlington, Sandy Spring and Baltimore line
through Howard county will be by way of
the Frederick turnpike to st. Charles Col
lege, thence through Doughoregan Manor,
the Carroll homestead, to GAINESVILLE and
Highland and on to Sandy Spring.
Mr.. Gascoyne says he has been greatly
encouraged by Howard county people with
whom he has conferred, and says there is
every prospect for the completion of the
road in the near future.
A meeting of those interested in the cleo
trio road through this county was called
Tuesday evening of last week at Sandy
Spring. About 300 citizens residing along
the line of the proposed road assembled in
the Lyceum Hall. Mr.. Asa M. Stabler was
made president, and Mr.. Henry H. Miller
secretary.
Messrs Colgrove, Chase and Gascoyne
were present in the interest of the company
and to ascertain the amount of stock likely
to be taken by the Montgomery farmers
They said that if the people along the line
of the proposed road would subscribe $780,
900 of stock the company would guarantee
that the remaining $150,000 could be dis,
posed of in Baltimore and Washington.
A committee was appointed to solicit sub
scriptions, and several thousand dollars OF
stock was secured before the meeting ad
iourned When thorough canvass is made
the necessary amount will undoubtedly be
subscribed.
