ROMANTIC STORY OF AN OLD
EASTERN SHORE SLAVE.

. EAsTON Md. Oct. 24.-Charles
Adams, colored, Washington city ca
terer of some reputation. is from Tai
bot county and is down here now on q
visit. He had a brother named Gilbert
Adams, who died few years ago and
who was Federal soldier a brief per
iod of the war. Gilbert always claimed
that he was forced into the army. They
were the slaves of General Tench
Tilghman, of Plimhimmon-had a
good master and were faithful and sat
isfied servants. General Tilghman's
son, Tench Francis Tilghman, went
South from Talbot county during the
progress Of the war and was stationed
in Richmond.
One day while walking through
Libby prison he heard a voice calling
out: 20. Mas Tench Mas Tench, 70
Gawd's sake come herel" Mr.. Thigh
man turned and saw his fathers SER
want, Gilbert Adams, wearing a Federal
uniform and a prisoner in Libby. He
capered with JOY when he saw the son
of his old master, and evidently thought
his troubles were over. He claimed
he had been forced into the service. Mr..
Tilghman asked him where he was
made prisoner. "A fightin' in de
crater TO Petersburg" said Gilbert.
with shudder. 60 Mas Tench. take
me out o. dis. Sell me to Georgy, Mas
Tench, and lemme work in de cotton
fields; / done smell powder nuff Don't
want to hear no mo- guns nor see no
mo- sojers Git Gilbert out o. dis
trouble; do honeyl"
The man was sincere. Mr. Tilghman
went to work to get the necessary per-
mission to carry out Gilbert's request.
It was an unprecedented piece of busi-
ness, but finally the order was passed
and the papers signed and Gilbert was
brought out from prison with his
United States uniform on and sold at
public auction to a man from Georgy. -
The war ended not long afterward. Mr..
Tilghman returned to Talbot as soon
as he could. One of the first to greet
him after his return home was Gilbert
Adams, who got back to Talbot before
his Mas Tench" did.
This is perhaps the only instance
during the war where a man wearing
the Federal uniform was sold at pub
lie sale.

REFUSED TO. PAY FOR LACK OF

KILLED A HORSE.

REFUSED IO. PAY FOX LACK OF
PROOF THAT LIGHTNING
KILLED A HORSE.
-CHESTERTOWN, Nd. Oct. "a
John A. Stauffer, a farmer. Of near Lo-
Gust Grove, has, through his attorney
Hope II. Burial, doeketed a suit OF
much importance to the insurer Of
farm stock. 1t appears that Stauffer
had valuable young horse insured for
5000 in a stock insurance company Of
New York. After a severe thunder
storm at night the horse was found
dead in the field without any marks OF
indications as to the cause of death
The agent OF the company was notified
at once by telegram, but failed to make
an examination of the dead animal
Stauffer was subsequently told. how
ever that the horse would be paid for
More recently, however, he was noti-
fed that payment would be resisted, as
he had failed to prove that the animal
was killed by lightning.
In a vast number of cases of death
to animals by lightning there is not
the slightest mark or evidence by
which the average farmer could abso-
lutely prove the cause of death, being
forced to rely largely upon circum-
stances unless, by some good fortune,
he should see the bolt strike the ami
NAL down. The case will be watched
with unusual interest.

HTGHER PRICE non WHEAT.

CENTREVILLE. Nd, Oct 24.-The
recent advance in the price Of grain has
caused a general movement TO market
of the wheat remaining ia the county.
A large proportion OF the grain crop is
bought by local agents Of prominent
city dealers. One agent for a Baltimore
house has shipped 100000 bushels OF
wheat from Centreville alone by steamer,
schooner and barge. An elevator has
been built at Centreville Landing with
a capacity Of LOO bushels an hour
thus permitting rapid loading of yes
sells. Another agent has purchased
about the same quantity. Competition
between local buyers has enabled the
farmers to receive better net prices here
than by shipping to city markets. Cen
eral William McKenney recently con-
tracted to deliver at Centreville Land
ing $4,000 bushels of grain. This repre-
sents about one-fourth Of his crop.

HE CLEARLY PROVED HIS INNO-
CENCE OF THE THEFT OF A BIZ
CYCLE.
William Carroll, who was accused Of
stealing a bicycle in Washington, re-
turned last night from that place, bav-
ing proved to the authorities there his
innocence OF the theft. He demonstrated
TO them that he purchased the wheel
from some other man, and he may have
stolen It.
The manner in which he came to be
arrested was this: He had been to
Washington on a vacation and while
there purchased the wheel. Returning
to this city he offered it to William
Begg, of No. 600 West Fourth street. for
$25. Begg thought the price too cheap,
as 1t was a new wheel and OF a stand
ard make.
TO make things satisfactory to him
self, he telegraphed to the companys
office at Washington and received re-
turn message asking him to have its
possessor arrested. This was followed
by Washington detective and a mem
her of the firm who made the wheel.
Then Carroll was arrested.
He consented to go to Washington
without requisition papers. lmme-
diately afterward he was permitted to
return home. He boarded with George
Etzel at No. 5l3 Walnut street who
called at the Evening Journal Office
this morning and said that Carroll does
not owe him anything.
