the coorings of the new silks, "The parrot

their plumage will hardly equal the bril-

dominant feature of the new silk modes is
that cashmerian coiors and cashmerian

Fresh Air For Poor Child rem.

Some time ago we received a COM
munication from the Childrens' Fresh
Air Society of Baltimore. an OrganiZa-
ton composed Of well known citizens,
who work with earnest Zeal for the suc-
cess of this charitable undertaking.
With the communication came matter
for publication. which being quite
lengthy. we cannot insert. The object Of
this society, in few words, is the bet
terment of the children of the poor Of
that city, and the securing for them ut
sometime during the summer months
Of one outing in the country, where
they can enjoy the health-giving
breezes, the beauty Of nature and the
unlimited pleasures they are deprived
of the greater portion of their young
lives. Children of this class live in
narrow, dirty ALLEYS, in wretched how
els for homes and are removed from
all refined and beneficial influences
with which we take care shall SUR
round the lives of those near and dear
to liz. They have none of the good
times provided for the children Of the
well-to-do and hence grow up unedu-
Gated, unhealthy, with the the faint of
low life implanted upon them, and in
every manner showing plainly what
course in life they have taken, though
no fault of their own. The society in
tends to help the physical, mental and
moral natures of these unfortunates.
They ask you to help them in their
chosen work.
The circular of the society says in part:
Can you spare two weeks out of your
comfortable, we Lied, prosperous fifty
two Of 20 to make one or two city poor
children happy and hearty for the
winter? Take those two weeks out
somewhere between June and Septem-
Der, while the schools are closed and
the alleys and courts are basking and
blistering in the midsummer sun, and
let one or two youngsters learn that
flowers do not grow in bags or cher
ries in crates; let them find out what
fun it is to fish in the brook for min
nows and to get all scratched up after
blackberries. Don't expect them to be
too good. Probably they will aStonish
you little by some Of their ways; but
remember that the worse they are the
more they need you. Please ask for a
bad one and love him into goodness.
They may be homesick. even for their
wre'ched homes; but cake has been
found Il sovereign remedy for this dis
ease. They may be ungrateful, but can
be helped, and that, after all, is what
we want.
Shall we send you boys or girls-one
or two? What age? When can you
let them come? Or, would you rather
arrange with your friends and take a
party OF ten or twenty? Let Us hear
about it,
If you should be interested in this
laudable purpose. addres, The Chill

Maryland State Teachers Assocla
ton at the Blue Mountain
House.

The Maryland State Teachers Asso-
citation began its twenty-ninth annual
meeting last Tuesday evening, at the
Blue Mountain House, near Pen-Mar,
under most auspicious conditions.
The weather has started in again on
its good behavior and the general APP
pearauce of that charming locality in
The Blue Ridge is all that can move
ones thoughts to higher ideas and
make our physical self entirely subor-
dinate to mental and moral sentiments.
The state Teachers Association was
organized in the city of Baltimore, III
the wear 1866 and since that time has
held regular meetings at stated times
and in an appropriate manner; all OF
which have been productive of great
benefit.
M regular meeting place is adhered
to, but al different times the association
has met at Ocean City, Mountain
Lake Park, Old Point Comfort, Deer
Park and Annapolis. The number OF
teachers on the rolls of the association
are over 800, sometimes increasing and
other times decreasing. a number OF
the most prominent professors and SCI
entlsts of the day, men and women, are
members OF this association. Since
last Saturday, members have been ar
irving and Monday night brought
nearly all who had made arrangements
to attend the exercises.
The program opened with an address
of welcome, 10y Col. Buchanan
Schley, of Hagerstown, responded to
by Mr.. James NJ. Diffenbaugh, of
Westminster. The president, Mr..
Bates Stephens, made tie annual adj
dress, which was followed by the read
ing of intelligent papers and addresses.
Several persons from this city were in
attendance and took part in the eXer-
cises.
The present officers of the association
are: President, NJ Bates Stephens,
Caroline County; first president,
Frank c. Beall, Allegheny; second
vIce-president, Jacob H. Biocher, Car

But they met with determined resis-

Dalton brothers, the western despera-

and it is probable other arrests will be
made, as notice of the attempted rob-
berry was wired far and near. Tramps
have pestered that neighborhood for
some time and many acts of vandalism
have been reported as their work.

lodged in the Jail at Towson. The

THAT we admire the bravery and
ZealOusness of the Volunteer Firemen
of our city and take every opportunity
to bring their numerous acts of hero
ism to the notice of the public, goes
without saying. but when we are
called upon to chide them for want
OF discrimination and strict attention
to duty, it is with the same spirit of
fairness that prompts our kinder
words. The action of the firemen in
taking part in the rowdy demonstra-
ton of water battling at the fire last
Friday morning in the upper portion
of the city cannot be too strongly con-
demned, notwithstanding the small eff
fort of the Baltimore Sun (editorially)
to make humor out of it. Quite con-
siderable time has elapsed since
troubles of this kind have been wit
messed by our people, and it is to be
hoped, for the honor of the town and
their own regulations, our firemen will
never stoop so low again. The duty of
firemen is of the most noble and glori-
GUS nature aud we find it hard to
reconcile the proceedings on the above
occasion with the general behavior of
our fire fighters. Fighting at fires has
long gone into disuse and should not
be permitted in any well.governed
town.

RECENTLY the valley Register, one
of the Oldest and most worthy of our
county newspapers, celebrated its en-
trance upon Volume 81 with becoming
modesty and individuality. Rarely is
it found in such venerable sheet, pre-
pared and published under similar cir
cumstances, such complete compen-
dunn of local, general and miscella-
neous items, so well arranged and so
carefully edited. Mr.. G. C. Rhoderick,
the editor and proprietor, has been in
the journalistic harness for many long
years and is thoroughly imbued with
the spirit of his well-chosen occupation.
The Register rs a newspaper is far
above the ordinary level and richly de-
serves its abundant harvest; the result
of good seed sown on good ground and
nurtured with excellent judgment The
fruits of industry are ubstantial and
we feel sure the Register, enjoying as
it does now, the success already gained,
will continue to improve and make
friends everywhere, maintaining its
high standard and working for the in
terest of its locality.
