The attempted political meeting in the
Court House last Saturday was noted for it's
lack of enthusiasm. After the band had pa
raded the streets, pouring forth melodious
strains calculated to strike q sympathetic
chord in the hearts Of chronic kickers, dis
gruntled office-seekers and ultra-Indepen-
dents, the few who had gathered, entered
the Court House. Most of these had come to
see, but not to pal ticipate. Messrs. E. NJ.
Allen and NJ. J. Heron then proceeded to or
ganize their meeting. Mr.. Thomas Moulsdale
was elected chairman, after Mr.. Heron had
called the meeting to order. Mr.. Allen nomi-
mated Mr.. William H. Tucker for secretary,
Mr.. Heron seconded the nomination. Mr..
Tucker was not present.
Mr.. Allen then nominated Mr.. Ralph l..
Wilson, who declined the proffered honor.
MIR. Allen nominated Mr.. Hugh T. Heaps,
who was elected, but declined to serve. Al
ter some delay Mr.. Allen nominated Mr.. Will
liam T. Clark, the vote was taken, and as
there were neither yeas nor nays, silence gave
consent, and Mr.. Clark took his place as sec
rotary.
Then followed a speech by Mr.. E. NJ. Allen,
after which Mr.. Heron read the following
slated nominations:
For Register of Wills-Dr. William Dallam.
For House of Delegates-Thomas Mouls.
dale.
For County Commissioner-George "
Mitchell.
For Senator-E. NJ. Allen.
The nominations were seconded by Mr.
Thomas A. Hays. Two persons voted yea on
the nominations, and they were carried al
made.
The band then played one of Sousa's two
| steps, which, under the circumstances, wal
| very appropriate. In fact the Emmorton
Band was the only inspiring feature of thu
meeting, as they rendered excellent music
but even the band had no sympathy with tn,
proceedings.
Mr.. Heron then read a set OF resolutions,
denouncing among other things the very man
ner in which this meeting was being run
There were three votes in favor Of the resolu
tions, and they were declared adopted.
After some time the chairman arose ant
made a motion to adjourn, which was no
seconded. The motion was put to vote, bu
no one voted for or against. After waiting Q
few moments he arose with the exclamatio OIL
81 adjourn" and departed. Thus ended the
ultra independent meeting

In number Of New England towns
the local baker bakes beans for half the
town. Saturday nights the pots are
taken to the bakeshop, where the baker
marks each one with the initials Of the
owner and places them in his big oven.
Next morning the owners call for their
beans and pay the charge of 10 cents
and invest 10 more in brown bread. 1t
is an amusing sight on Sunday morn
ing to see line of citizens going from
the bakeshop to their homes, each with
bean pot on one arm and loaf OF
brown bread on the other.
Good, old fashioned brown bread is
the proper accompaniment for baked
beans Here is a famous recipe for Bos-
ton brown bread Of the proper kind: One
cup Of rye or graham flour, q cup Of
white -four, cups OF Indian meal, a
cup Of molasses (scant), 3 teaspoonfuls
soda one-half teaspoonful salt, q cup Of
sour milk and / " or AZ cups watef
Steam for three hours and then dry in
the oven for half an hour. The brown
bread should 90 eaten warm, and what
is left over can either be steamed again
or toasted. -Excha1ge

Where He Got 1t.
W. NJ. WARD.

The little son Of q we'll known ply
sician was entertaining q playmate at
his fathers house As children will,
they ransacked every nook and corner Of
the building. Their curiosity led them
to explore tho recesses Of a closet, in
which the doctor keeps his instruments
and other personal effects, among which
is complete skeleton. The strange boy
was frightened when he first beheld the
grinning remnant of what once had been
human being and started to run away.
The doctors son, however, had seen the
skeleton SO often that he entertained fo1
it only that feeling of contempt begot-
ten by familiarity, and in little while
succeeded in SO allaying the fears Of his
companion that the youngster began to
handle the thing and rattle it's dry bones.
Where did ySur father ges it?'' he
finally asked. II don t know" was the
reply, ''but guess it was his first pa.
tient, for he's had it an awful long
time. Butte Miner.

adopted in this state it became neces-
sary for each party TO select an en-
blem to be printed at the head OF the
partys ballot. In the Democratic
state convention one delegate propos-
ed the national flag as a Democrats
emblem, while another wanted the pic
ture of Thos. Jefferson. Major Arm
strong in speech which carried the
convention by storm, moved that the
rooster be the emblem Of Democracy.
He said that it would not be legal to
select the national flag. and many
voters would not know the difference
between the picture of Jefferson and
that of q patent medicine man, but
every Democrat would recognize the
rooster.

FEAR AS A CAUSE OF DEATH.

The Imagination Potent Factor In Ac-
quiring Fatal Disease.
"Of the whole number Of persons
supposed to die Of disease, ;" said prom
inent physician the other day, II should
say that at least 30 per cent are really
carried away by fear. We're it not for
this element mortality would be far less
than 1t is. +"
In support of his statement he cited
various cases where the element Of fear
had entered largely in as potent factor
to persuade people that their time had
come. Presentiments, prophecies, pre-
monitions and general nervousness all
played their part. Some years ago four
criminals, condemned in Russia to die,
were taken to house and shown sew
eral beds, in which, they were told, q
number of cholera patients had died.
In fact, the beds were new, never hav-
ing been slept in. The criminals were
informed that they would be set at lib
erty If they would undergo the ordeal
of sleeping several nights in the beds.

WHY Reyinlard.

Those familiar with the "Fables Of
Asop' will remember the reputation
which Reynaye bears among the rest Of
the animals. Ie Is questionable whether
any wild creature can compete with the
fox in oraftiness To look at him gen.
orally, even in his ordinary habits, he
exhibits an amount Of cleverness which
astonishes one Should a fox catch a
hedgehog, whose spines effectually pro.
tect him from most Of his enemies, he
does not waste time, as a fox terrier
will do. in endeavoring to worry HE
prey. He merely rolls him to the near
est water, knowing that drop or two
will cause the animal to relax his hold.
1t is rare thing to catch one in a
trap laid at the door of his "earth"
even. II he is inside when the trap is
set, he waits until some other animal
springs it and then emerges to eat the
victim and the bait. Only when driven
by the terrible pangs Of hunger will he
tempt fate III his own person. Most an
imals gorge themselves when they are
fortunate enough to come across super.
abundance Of food. Not SO with Reynard.
Should he find a poultry yard well
stocked and i'll protected he fills his
larlers first. Nor does he, as the prov
erb says, 'put all his eggs in one bas.
ket. He puts one fowl in hedge,
hides another in bush, places third
in hole in a tree. rapidly digs a cavity
for fourth and covers it up again, re-
membering in each case where his stores
are concealed And when his supplies
are sufficient in his own estimation he
takes fine fat chicken or duck to his
'searth. fdr present enjoyment.

to Visitors.
Broderip and Sir Richard Owen, says
the latter in his "reminiscences, 4"
walked together to Turner's residence,
which was slightly dingy in outward
appearance. When they arrived at the
door, they waited some time before their
ring at the bell was answered At last
an elderly person opened tho door few
inches and asked them suspiciously what
they wanted. They replied that they
wished to see Mr.. Turner. The door
was Immediately shut in their faces.
but after time the person came back
to say that they might enter. When
they got into the hall, she showed them
into room and forthwith shut the door
upon them. They then discovered, with
some dismay, that this apartment was
in total darkness, with the blinds down
and the shutters up. After prolonged
interval they were told they might go
up stairs. Upon arriving at the topmost
story they perceived Turner standing
before several easels and taking his
colors from a circular table which he
swung around to get at the paints he
required. He was painting several pic
lures at once, passing on from one to
the other and applying to each in its
turn the particular color he was using
till it was exhausted.
After showing them all that there was
to be seen Turner vouchsafed the ex-
PLANTATION of the treatment which they
experienced upon entering the house.
He said that the bright light outside
would have, spoiled their eyes for prop
erly appreciating the pictures, and that
to see them to advantage an interval of
darkness was necessary. At this stage
Of the interview Broderip had to leave
for some engagement, and then an event
took place which Owen declares that
none of his artist friends would ever be-
lieve Turner offered him glass of
wine. 1t was while they were coming
down stairs that he first discovered the
symptoms of an inward struggle going
on in Turner's bosom. When they were
passing little cupboard on the landing,
this struggle reached climax. Finally
Turner said, "Will you-will you have
a glass of wine?" This offer having been
accepted, after good deal of cropping
in the cupboard a decanter was pro-
duced, of which the original stopper
had been replaced by the cork. with the
remains Of some sherry at the bottom.
This Owen duly consumed and shortly
afterward took his leave, with many ex-
pressions of the pleasure this visit had
afforded him and disturbing oonvic-
tion that the sherry might lurk indefi-
nitely in his system.
