Says this weeks Banner of Liberty:
Some malicious person tied a steel
wagon-hub box in the middle of a
sheaf of wheat on Casper Ramsburg's
farm, near Charlesville, this county.
When the sheaf was fed into the
thresher it considerably damaged the
machine.
| Bass fishing, before the creek clouded
from the heavy rain on Saturday even-
ing last, has been all the rage, and
some beautiful strings have been
brought to town. Many exceedingly
large ones have taken the tempting
bait and been successfully landed. The
fun began again when clear water as
sumed control.
Mr.. MehrIe Gittinger has declined
the appointment as member of the
health board of this city, recently ten.
dered him by the new City Fathers.
This is the second instance. Can it be
that the sanitary condition of Freder-
ick is so superior that health board is
undesirable? We hope to see the va
cancy filled by representative citizen,
who will take a proper interest in the
important matters coming directly un-
der their supervision.
Superintendent of water works Ty-
eryar says that there is no danger of a
water famine this summer, over S,000,-
900 gallons of water are stored in the
two large reservoirs, which, without
any addition, is sufficient to last long
| time. Some persons have enormously
stated that the new reservoir was used
as a storage tank and that in conse-
quence the water was not fresh when
drawn therefrom. This Mr. Tyeryar
contradicts. The water is taken from
both reservoirs at the same time, thus
maintaining the purity of the water,
which is famous the country over.
The canning season is now on in
this section, and the several factories
in this county are awaiting the first
load of corn. Everything is in readi-
hess for the army of workmen to take
possession of the works and it is eX-
pected that an unusually large guam
tity of canned goods Will be ready to
go on the market at the usual time.
The corn crop in every part of the
county is promising and the acreage
intended for the use of the canning
houses is very extensive. This indus
try is one of the most beneficial to this
community and many hundred hands
find employment.
Judge McSherry recently decided a
case of habeas corpus, the principals

couple separated some months ago and
the woman tried to secure the custody
