Am Appeal from enc W. c. 7. U.

Mr.. EDITOR May we not ask for
space in your columns to give express
sion to few thoughts, thus vOicing the
sentiment of large number OF chris
tial women of this city.
Two years ago the Woman's Chris
tian TEN Derance Union made an earn
est effort for the closing of some of tho
saloons in this city, which were special
~ Objectionable, one of which is in close
proximity to the public school, another
very near the cemetery.
Our protests, though largely signed,
were treated with contempt, and even
scorn, our efforts styled san insane cru
sade." We have taken no public action
since, but have quietly worked, prayed
and waited. To our dismay another year
of the license system is upon us.
Every application granted, as we are
informed, and this in the face of the
well-known fact that the saloons are the
cause of nearly all the poverty and dis
tress existing here during the winter
season, and that the cost to the city
or county is far in excess of the revenue
derived from the license, to say nothing
of the sorrow and woe brought upon
helpless women and children, the inno-
cent suffers from the liquor traffic.
We feel that we can keep silent 10

for our grievances The cry of the
christian woman is that of one of old,
pleading for her people, "How can /
bear the destruction of my kindred Z"
| The dumb beast, with no voice for ut
terance, will fight for her young, and
can 1T be expected that the suffering
| women of this city shall sit supinely by
and witness this awful destruction which
| is going on continually, and utter no
complaint?
The cost of this vile traffic may be
estimated in dollars and cents, bnt who
can measure the tears, the heart-aches,
[ the grief, too great for expression CT the
mother, who listens night after night
for the footsteps of her boy, once pure

The Key Monument.

The Rev. Robert III. Williams, form
erly pastor of the Presbyterian Church,
of Annapolis. has written the following
letter to the Baltimore American:
To those who have taken any part in
awakening an interest in this truly pa
triotic undertaking of erecting monu-
ment to the author of ''The Star-Spang-
led Banner" the recommendations of
Governor Brown is specially pleasing.
The place the national song holds in
the estimation of the people, the influence
it has in awakening and perpetuating
patriotic sentiments in the hearts of our
American people, and the excellent char
acter and honorable career Of the author,
ought to commend this enterprise to The
nation.
Your correspondent has been deeply
interested in this movement, and is fa-
miliar with the various steps in its pro-
giess from its inception, and hopes that
a monument worthy of The poet and the
great American nation may be erected.

Is when nearly everyone feels the need
OF some blood purifying, strength
invigorating and health producing medi-
cine. The real merit of Hoods Sarsa-
parilla is the reason of its widespread
popularity. It's unequalled success is
its best recommendation. The whole
system is susceptible to the .most good
from medicine like Hood IS Sarsaparilla
taken at this time, and would lay special
stress upon the time and remedy, for
history has it recorded that delays are
dangerous. The remarkable success
achieved by Hoods Sarsaparilla and the
many words of praise it has received,
make it worthy of your confidence. We
ask you to give this medicine fair
trial.

Any one who has ever had an attack
of inflammat0ry rheumatism will re-
joice with Mr.. j. A. Stumm, 900 Boyle
Heights, Los Angeles, over his fortunate
escape from a siege of that distressing
ailment. Mr.. Stumm is foreman of
Merriam IS confectionery establishment.
Some months ago, on leaving the heated
work room to run across the street on
an errand, he was caught out in the rain.
The result was that when ready to go
home that night he was unable to walk,
owing to intlammatory rheumatism. He
was taken home, and on arrival was
placed in front of a good fire and rub
bed thoroughly with Chamberlain 5 Pain
Balm. During the evening and night
he was repeatedly bathed with this lini-
ment, and by morning was relieved of
all rheumatic pains. He now takes
especial pleasure in praising Chamber
lain's Pain Balm, and always keeps a
bottle of it in the house. For sale by

At meeting of the County Commits
sioners today, President Gischel presid-
ing. committee from the Law aid
Order Society of Brooklyn, Anne Arun-
del county, headed by Rev. Thos. l..
Springer, presented the following COM
munication TO the commissioners
"The undersigned, representing the
Law and Order Society of the First
Precinct of the Fifth district of Anne
Arundel county, beg leave to appeal to
you in behalf of the objects of our Socie-
ty within this precinct. As YOU are
doubtless aware, the laws of the State
and county, in the matter of the obser-
vance of Sunday, of selling liquor to
minors, of keeping gambling houses, and
of keeping disreputable resorts for the
vilest people of both sexes, are most
grossly and insolently violated.
Your honorable board has entire con-
troll aud direction of the police force
within our precinct, which is maintain
ed at very large expense to the county;
yet these abuses have continued for sew
eral years with no serious attention on
the part of the police to restrain them.
When by A ct of the Legislature of u
year ago, the Office of the Chief of Police
was created, we were told that the duty
of that Office would be, to place his subor-
dinates so that all violations of the law
could he taken cognizance of; yet, when
applied to, he, the Chief of Police inform
ed us that he had received no instructions
to that end from you.
As you are the Board of Police Com
missioners, with authority to this end,
and the enforcement of law and preser-
vation of order are within your duty
and responsibility, we respectfully call
upon you to deliver and protect us from
this grlevous and intolerable evil, to in
struct tie police officers to this end, and
to punish and remove them if they fail
of their duty

stopped up. / had severe pains across
the front of my head, my eyes became
wateiy. / sneezed great deal, and
my bones and joints ached continually.
When got mp in the morning my throat

last traces of the hideous disease had
vanished, and today my friends are

A DISCRIMINATING ORDER.
BicycIists Forbidden Entering the Acad-

BicycIists Forbidden Entering the Acad-
envy by Superintendent Cooper.
An unusual order was issued by SUI
perintendent Cooper, of the Naval A cad
emy yesterday, prohibiting Annapolis
bicyclists from partaking of the pleasure
of spin on their wheels in the Academy
grounds. The order effects the citizens
and employees of the Academy only,
which the wheelmen claim is an unjust
discrimination. Some time ago, an or
der was issued, prohibiting riding on
certain sidewalks in the Academy, this
the Annapolis riders didn't object to.
They claim there has been no accidents
and have heard no complaint from the
Academy people. The order effects the
employees more than any one else, as a
large number live in the suburbs of the
city and use their bicycles in going to
and from the Academy to work.
