IN MEMORIAM

At a regular meeting of Di-
vision 352,B of l.. E.. held Apr.
Is, 1895, the following resolu-
tions were adopted: Whereas
the Creator of all beings in his
infinite wisdom and mercy has
removed from our midst our
beloved and worthy brother, A.
S. Erwin, who died of pneumon-
ia at his home in Brunswick,
Md, April 8, 1895,
Resolued, That the Brother
hood has lost a true and worthy
member, the B. & O. R. R. Co.
a worthy employee, and the
community an honorable citizen;
ResolUed, That we bow in
hu nble submission to the gra-
cious will of our Heavenly Fa-
Their who is too wise to err and
too good to be unkind, and in
this solemn visitation we are re-
minded of the vanity of earthly
hopes and admonished to pre-
pare for the change beyond the
tears of the borne from whence
no traveller ever returns;
RESOLVED, That we extend our
heartfelt sympathy to the be-
reaved family, who knew niue h
better his good qualities, and
many virtues, and pray that in
this time of sorrow which has
so heavily fallen upon them
that God in his infinite mercy
will help them to bear it;
ResolUed, That as a just trib-
ute to our deceased Brother we
drape our charter for thirty days,
that these resolutions he spread
on the minutes of the Division,
and that copy be sent to the
family.

The Diamond.


This is a new venture. By
new we do not mean that these
in charge are inexperienced or
new to the business, but that
the stock of goods is new.
Neither shall we tell what is
sold or given away there for
the reason that when a repre-
sentative of the Herald called
there the other day to look
around, he found everybody
busy waiting on the crowd of
customers. We heard a lady
remark that some wall paper
she was examining was very
pretty and cheap, and saw an
other lady who is known as a
bargain hunter carrying off a
lot of rugs, while some young
ladies were being fitted with
shoes. The Diamond is as the
boys say ga mixtery"-a place
where you can get almost any
thing you want very cheap.

The decline in interest in county fairs
is owing to the fact that there have been
no new attractions Of late years. The
public got tired Of looking at big pump
5kins and beets and red and green 'sam-
piers forever. The tickle human mind
demands ever something new. For the
past year this seemed in measure to
be supplied by hitching Midway plai-
sance to the county fair. The boys yell
ed over it, especially if they fancied
they were doing something naughty
when they gazed upon it. But now the
implement manufacturers have made a
declaration of war to the knife against
the Midway plaisance. They say it
draws people away from looking at their
beautiful, bright machinery, and they
will enlist the virtue and responsibility
of the land in opposition to the bad
show. Between the thrashing machine
and the plaisance, however, we bet on
the plaisance every time.

The conditi ons favorable to improve

object is not to remove all the water,
but only to lower the water level to a

seasons the drains keep the water level

TANNERlEs CLOSED DOWN.

Thousands Ut Employees of the Leather
Trust Out of Work.
New YORK, Nov. 5.-The World says:
The United States Leather company,
known as the leather trust, has shut
down the 100 tanneries under it's con-
troll. Not another HIDE will be taken
from its watts for 60 days. During the
60 days that tho 100 tanneries are closed
more than $4,000 laborers, tanners,
clerks and employees generally will be
without work. The meeting at which
the lookup was decided upon was held a
few days ago at the Office Of the trust.
The concerns shut up represent 80 per
cent Of the henlock tanneries and 40 per
cent of the union, the latter so-called
because they use combination of hem
lock and oak bark in tanning. Few of
the strictly oak tanneries are included,
as they are mostly out Of the trust.

Shredded Fodder.

4 The corn fodder on an acre Of land
contains as much digestible matter as
the corn ears from one acre, where it is
carefully saved. Fodder that is shredded
and housed as early in the season as it
can be handled safely is in the very
best condition for feeding. 1t is not only
in best condition for stock, but in best
shape for handling. The digestible mat
ter in an acre of good fodder is equal to
about two tons Of good clover or timothy
hay. Fodder must figure more largely
