The sound of the last farewell had died
upon the morning air and little Harold's two
year-old voice was heard shouting, "Don't

chif-- chimed in sweet eighteen Bess, when
the locomotive bell rang and away steamed
the great iron horse, with its precious load of
humanity, from the little town o.
in Western Maryland, to Baltimore, its des-
tination. Mrs. Radmore, the mother of Har-
old and Bess, was seated alone, but at the
next station another lady got aboard and took
the seat beside her. Good morning, Mrs.
Radmore Why, Mrs. Sinclair, good morn

SOME RAMBLING THOUGHTS.
Written for the DemOcratic Advocate,
BY MEMO.

Some fifty years or so ago cultured
Englishman sneeringly referred to America
as "a country without literature - This
country has since that time quite fairly
made up for the literary infertility of its
swaddling- clothes days. Its book prod
ucts gradually increased in volume; the
tiny rivulet became brook; the brook
river; the river very Gulf Stream of
printed matter, sweeping across the Attain
tic and moderating the literary climate of
Europe, even as the waters Of the actual
Gulf Stream render England habitable.

WANT MORE POLICE.
Prominent Merchants Say the Present
 Force Is Too Small.

"More policeW is the cry of mer. chan's and citizens. With the winter influx of tramps and boodlums neither property or persons are sufficiently guarded with the present police force. Mir. Gold berg said: Certainly, we need a larger force. We have had an orderly town thus far and have bossted of hay ing only two policemen in a town of 12 900 inh nha bitants. but in my opinion 1t is not a matter 10 boast of. As to the two men proposed, Buck and Galpin, they are good, reliable men. 1 have been councilman when they both did good work for the authorities.
 MT. Greene, MT. Kessler of the Kess- Ter Boyle Grocery company, and other merchants expressed themselves as fa- voring the addition to the force, and regarded It as unsafe both for the citi- zens them selves and for the reputation of the city to depe nd on en already overworked force.
 Recorder Jobs declared that the pres ent force ia entirely insufficient. 'Oniy the other day there was a hold up in broad day, and the people who caught the would-be robber rang for an hour l UO S0uu Ill DuG IHSI6 VI dS lO officer to send "The merchants" said he, "already pay large taxes. Why should they he compelled to furnish their own watchmen? Fasteners will be 10th 10 believe that two policemen can attend to all the hoodlums to be found in city Of 12,000 people.
 'The two men are both brave and re- liable and will make good officers. Galpin has done a great deal of work already for the city, without any recog- nition of his services, and with his ex. perience will make an excellent officer. J
 Only one or two merchants seem tc be SO uninterested as to be indifferent to the entire plan. Without doubt some additional recognition of the claims of both the person and property of the citizen should be taken by the city fathers.

We bought all of our woolen dress goods for spot cash on a fallen market and will sell our dress goods for 50 per cent less than any other store that bought their goods ear Her in the season. We have just re ceived and placed on sale 100 pieces woolen dress goods ranging in prices from 10 to 35 cents per yard, worth from 20 to 50 cents per yard. We are now offer ing the finest grades of woolen and silk. dress goods at prices Gf the qual- ity can be found in any other store in this city alt alb, the prices for it would be double. We are still selling ladies' capes ranging from $125 &o S7.5O each: worth from $3 to $15.
