CORRECT THIs.-Concerning the recent
arrests made in this locality the Frederick
Daily Ne,os ofMonday last, under the caption
"Clever Detective Work." says; "The local
officers Of Thurmont found themselves una.
BILE to arrest the men and accordingly two
detectives, Messrs Hardesty and Smart of
Baltimore, were detailed to visit the town
and apprehend the entire gang"
Now the simple truth is that not a single
"local officer of Thurmont" had made any
attempt to arrest anybody, for any crime
at any time. Several citizens undertook to
do some private detective work, wholly Of
their own choice and entirely upon their
own responsibility. There was not a step
taken by authority of the town officials, nor
the pretense of recognition by the local au.
thorities. or by our people generally Of any
such condition of affairs as is implied by the
following, also taken from the item referred
to, viz: that "travel IN remote sections ofthat
part of the county (s) attendant with dan
ger"
There has been no one waylaid in this sec
tion for years and statement such as the
above is atrocious, harmful and certainly
absurd when founded upon no further fact
than that two detectives bagged seven men

Among the novelties for next

with the finest of lace insertion and
ruffles, and many exquisite pieces
of embroidery worked by hands
long since folded in their last rest
are now utilized for this purpose.
Only the finest of muslin or null
and real lace or embroidery are
considered suitable for these under
sleeves as yet, but of course imita-
tions will soon be used, as the
fashion is bound to be popular.

The Bicycle Hand.

Women who ride the wheel to
excess are complaining of a numb
ness in the fingers, and in some
circles the annoyance has been SO
widespread that it is known as the
"bicycle hand" In the middle OF
the palm, close to the wrist, the
nerves pass on their way to the
fingers. A blow at this point will
set the two smaller fingers tingling
as if the "funny bone" of the elbow
were struck. 1t is at this point,
which pugilists call the "heel' Of
the hand, that the end of the
handle bar rests in riding. Conse-
quently, the jolt and jar of a rough
road keep striking succession Of
blows on the nerves, producing a
tingling and finally numbness, as
if the fingers were ''asleep." This
effect sometimes last for days after
a hard ride, and causes all manner
of inconvenience and some degree
of pain to the unfortunate subject.
The causes are: Rough roads,
fast riding, initiating front tire toe
highly, putting the handle bar toe
low, so that too much weight is
thrown upon them, scorching down
hills and taking a mad grip of the
handles. The remedies are: Re
laxing the front tire, raising handle
bars, riding more slowly and less,
and holding the handle properly.
This last is the best solution of the
difficulty, since if the weight comes
upon the tieshy portion of the
hands there will be little danger
of the complaint occurring.

Such is the history of the thirty

Such is the history of the thirty
years. war upon the products of
the soil. AS the value of an acres
yield diminishes, the value of the
acre itself decreases also. Many a
man who put his savings into farm
land years ago, giving a mortgage
for the balance of the purchase
price, finds to-day that the mort
gage has swallowed the farm. Sup
pose he had saved five thousand
dollars, borrowed five thousand
more, and bought ten thousand
dollar farm in Kansas, giving a
mortgage for the money he had
borrowed. To-day the farm is not
worth the face of the mortgage
falling prices have devoured his
five thousand dollars, and left only
the debt,-at the start the farmer
and the mortgage had equal in
terests in the farm; now the mort
gagee's interest covers the whole
farm and the farmer has nothing.
This is fair example of one of the
disastrous processes that have been
going on all over the country and
especially in the West and South,
and no one can wonder that our
people should become desperately
hostile to a monetary system that
causes or permits such evils.-Prof.

What a Famous Woman Writer Says
of It's Health Giving Qualities.

What a Famous Woman Writer Says
of Its Health Giving Qualities.
In her article on "The Lady Who
Does Her Own Work." Mrs. Stowe
dwells on the value of Homework
in giving the very healthiest form
of exercise, and for the average
woman shows it to be far preferable
to the work of the masseurs, who,
even in those days, more than
thirty years ago, seem to have
found plenty of patients.
"Would it not be quite as cheer
full and less expensive process
she asks, elf young girls from early
life developed the muscles in sweep
ing, busting, ironing, rubbing
furniture and all the multiplied
domestic processes which our grand
mothers knew of" and then adds:
~ will venture to say that our
grandmothers in a week went over
every movement that any gymnast
has invented, and went over them
to some productive purpose, too"
Here is a hint that women with
thin arms would do well to take.
1t is said to be really a fact that
Clara Louise Kellogg, the singer,
when young girl, was much an
noyed by the attenuated appear
ance of her arms when she began
to don evening dress at crowded
concerts. Some one recommended
a brisk use of the broom, which
advice she followed, and soon had
a round, plump member as the
reward of her labor. If a thin,
listless girl, with a dull eye and
stare, can by any means be per-
suaded to try the "broom cure,'
she will be astonished to find what
a beautifier it surely is.

The assertion which Mckinley makes
and which John Sherman and most other
Republican leaders sustain, that the
trouble has been due to too small a
revenue, is i'll fact confession that they
really started the trouble. The billion
dollar Congresses, the first one Republi-
can and the next one Democratic, were
responsible more than anything else for
the impoverished Treasury. AS for tariff
bills, the last year of the Mckinley bill
brought in about $I2e 900, 900 of revenue
from customs duties, while the Wilson
bill the succeeding year brought in $I49-
600, 600. If the Mckinley tariff had been
let alone, we would be worse off than we
are. Those billion-dollar Congresses are
not coming in for their share OF the blame.
for the very simple reason that both old
parties were equally to blame.-New York
Voice.
What stranger evidence could be given
that it is not change of tariff schedules
that has caused the trouble but scarcity
of money. The Mckinley law was raising
less revenue than the Wilson bill in the
last year of its existence.
