The Racket in the Middleburg M. E. Church.

EDITORS OF The ADVOCATE: In gancing
over the columns of your paper | noticed
a report of the ''scene'' at the Middleburg
NJ. E. Church on the morning of Sunday,
January 18th.
The church was in bad condition, and at
a legal meeting of the Board of Trustees held
sometime previous to said Sunday it was
agreed upon by all the members present, to
put new roof on the church and make some
other alterations and repairs. This work was
done according to the instructions OF the prop
er authorities and aroused the Indignation OF
some who are in the church. and a great
many who are out of it. When the hour
arrived for Sabbath school, instead Of having
it as usual, the time was spent in iangling and
the passing of unkind remarks, and |, as the
pastor, kindly asked them TO retain from doing
so in there as is was not the place for any
thing of the kind, and il they did not like
what had been done TO go to the Trustees and
speak to them about it. They didn't do as
they should have done under the circum-
stances, and told them from the front of the
pulpit that | would not preach to them while
they were in such mood, and dismissed
them. Some remarks were made afterward,
but no one came anyways near being 'strounc.
ed
make this statement so that all may un-
derstand it and receive justice. Yours truly,
H. C. HALL, Pastor.

Local Political Notes.


The Justices of the Peace for Westminster
district, with one exception, have all been on
the Clabaugh-Sharrer band-wagon. The
Huber Republicans did not NEEDLE with
local appointments.
A good story is told on one of the just ap-
pointed Justices of the Peace. When he
found that there were no more applicants than
there were places, the law providing for six
in this district and that his application had
been filed with the Governor, he went home
in high glee. He seized his wife by the neck
and said to her, ''call me Judge, you son-of-
a-gun.n The wife was so amazed at her own
establishment she gasped for breath. "Call me
Judge, you son-of-a-gun" said the expectant
Judge, tightening his grip and giving Lis wife
a shake. The wife called for an explanation
of his conduct; when he told her of his pleas
ant antieipations. "Oh, how nice that will
be, said the wife, who was as happy as the
husband. "When will you be Judge?'' asked
the wife, and the husband said he would don
the judicial ermine in May. "Now," said he
to the wife, 1--WE shall have to assume little
more dignity will not rank with the Supreme
Court Justices, but will not be far behind.
Don't let the children play with those of our
neighbors. | have figured ont In my mind
how to make the Office pay, decide the cases
against the fellows who can pay the costs, and
to make especially of hauling up tramps.
The Carroll Delegates still have con-
science, and it don't permit them TO differ
with Clabaugh and Sharrer. They will not
serve in the Maryland Legislature after this
tenn.
Judge B-ssIf Mr.. Fuss takes out his
commission there will always be Fuss in his
office. That will be pretty state of affairs
for a conservator of the peace"
The appointments for Carroll are published
in this issue. Reform( p may now be expect
ed of the highest type of purity.
Two or three expectant registers of voters
in this district are not as happy as they were.
The Schaeffer family of Westminster seem
