Famous Springs at Deer Park.

A million and half gallons of the
purest water on earth, is the daily out
put of the famous Boiling Springs in
Garrett County, Maryland. In order
that nothing can contaminate the
springs, one hundred acres of land
surrounding it, are fenced in. In adj
dition, wire building covers the
springs, so that no leaves can fall into
the water. Its from these extraordi-
nary springs that the Deer Park Hotel
receives its water supply, the water
supply, the water being piped direct
to the hotel. The medical fraternity
now concede that in the matter of
health, the question of pure water
stands at the head and front. No
summer resort combines so many
healthful features. The air is wonder
fully pure and invigorating; cool
nights, with absolutely no mosquitoes;
the finest cuisine, with perfect sani-
tary arrangements, makes Deer Park
Hotel the ideal resort

Meager details have reached Fred

pened on Monday last, at the crossing
of the Western Maryland Railroad

in the death of the little daughter of
Mr. Frank Zimmerman and serious
injury to her father and Mr.. Gregg
Eichelberger. The parties were drIv-

dashed into them causing the above
result. Mr.. Eichelberger was so serious
ly injured that at first his death was
looked for Later he was sent 10 the
Baltimore City Hospital A physi-
clan was hastily summoned from
Thurmont. about three miles distant,
and the sufferers cared for. Great
excitement prevailed when the news
were brought to the latter place by a

particulars as to the responsibility for
the sad affair have not been received.

On The Matter of Introduction.

1t is Notifying to note how many
persons pay little or no attention to
what may be styled the etiquette of
introductions. To the lover of good
form there is something that sets ones
teeth on an edge on hearing an intro
auction so worded that woman is
presented to man, or an elderly
woman to a young one. The rules
with regard to introductions are so
simple and sensible that it would seem
that the wayfaring man or woman,
though fool, could scarcely err there
in. A man is always introduced to a
woman and it may be well in passing
to add that lady's permission should
usually be asked before such a presen-
tation is made. 1t is simple matter
to say, Miss Smith, may present to
you Mr.. Jones?" before uttering the
formal, Miss Smith, allow me to in
troduce Mr.. Jones'"
The man is, of course, always
brought to the woman whom he is to
meet; the woman should never be led to
the man.
These rules might seem superfluous
were it not that one so often observes
their infraction among people who
should know better AT a tea "a matron
who years before had arrived at the
dignity of grandmother was piloted
by her hostess to Il young girl of
twenty, and they were made known to
each other in the well meant words:
"Mrs. Knight, | want to present to
you my dear little friend Mabel Day.
Mabel, dear, this is the Mrs. Knight,
of whom you have so often heard me
speak,
If the ladies were amused by the
speech, they were so well versed in
that knowledge of good form in which
their hostess was lacking that they
showed no consciousness of her error.

in this section.
Several days ago a deep rumbliug
sound, resembling the vibrations of an
earthquake, was heard in this section.
The katydid has made its appear
ance aud the old folks say that there
will be frost in six weeks.
On last Friday, the 30th ultimo, a
buzzard alighted in one of the fields
on the Doub Farm tenanted by Mr..
d. H. Shook, with bell resembling a
sheep bell, attached to its body. Oc-
casionally these birds are seen with
bells attached to them, which has been
the cause of much speculation as to
how the buzzard acquired the bell.
The first picnic of the Church of
God Sunday School was held last Sat
urday, the 3lst ultimo, in the woods
near the Receiver, ON the road leading
from this place to Shookstown, and
was one of the most enjoyable occas-
ions. At s o'clock the school as
sembled at the residence of Mr.. Jacob
Hildebrand and formed line of pa
rade to the ground, which was only a
short distance from Mr.. Hildebrand' IS
residence. The parade was headed
by the Yellow Springs Band, under the
leadership of Professor Charles E.
Feaga, followed by the school carrying
the national emblem aud banners.
Mr.. Charles Hanshew acted as chief
marshal, with Messrs. Harry Burger,
George Masser and Harry Klipp as
aids. A neat and tastefully decorated
stand was erected OH the grounds. The
program consisted of singing and
prayer and several addresses by the
Rev. A. w. Philhower, their pastor

The committee in charge were Messrs

A very pretty flag was used on this
occasion, which was the handiwork o.
Mrs. Lewis H. Blank, one of the
teachers of the school. and was made
by her after only few hours notice OIL
Friday evening. The Yellow Spring
boys acquitted themselves admirably

A woman never really knows the
meaning of happiness and content un-
til she is the mother of healthy, hap
ply child. The health of the child de-
ponds on the health of the mother,
both before and after birth. Most all
of woman's weakness and particularly
the weakness that most strongly influ-
ences the health of children, comes
from some arrangement or disease of
the distinctly feminine organs. DIR.
Pierce's Favorte Prescription will cure
troubles of this nature. 1t should be
taken regularly by every woman dur
ing the entire period of CESSATION. 1t
gives strength to all the organs involv-
ed, lessons the pains of childbirth aud
insures the health of both mother and
child.

Guesses at Truth.

Unless we ourselves possess the gift
of sympathy we cannot expect SYM
pathy from Others.
A man requires moral education
both broad and high either to compre-
bend or recognize thoroughly good
woman.
Few things make us more unreason-
able and more unpleasant than uni
form attempt to be consistent.
A woman's persistent effort to make
her intimates think and act like her.
self frequently prevents them from be-
coming her friends.
A woman who has her own way for
a term of years must be more than
mortal not to be, in ample measure,
tyrannical.

Pockets.

In these days when pockets are vir-
tually abolished, while the need for
them remains the same, an ingenious
contrivance can be substituted, says
Hdrper''S BdSdr.
A double bow of ribbon of any color
is made with all the ends left about
three inches too long. These ends are
to be turned up underneath and the
edges of the ribbon whipped together.
Small as are the little pockets thus
made, they serve very conveniently
for many things, and are quite large
enough to hold handkerchief or card
case or railway ticket The bow is fas-
tened with a shield clasp-pin at the
side of the waist, and until it has been
tried it will scarcely be realized how
necessary it becomes to woman's
comfort.

WILSON IN CUSTODY.
The Brute Who Assaulted Miss
Jeans, of Jefferson District, to
Tried For His Crime.

All our readers will remember Chas.
Wilson, the desperate negro and his
ferocious assault upon Miss Jessie
Jeans, at her home near Catoctin,
this county, about two years ago, over
which this community was SO wrought
up, and they will be glad to learn that
he is in custody of the authorities and
his trial will soon take place and long
delayed justice melted out to de-
serving wretch.
After the deed was committed the
negro made good his escape, Guiding
all attempts to capture him. although
posses were sworn in and secured the
country, but to no avail. Several Of
ticers traced him to his hiding place in
Frederick shortly after the crime. but
he eluded them and was heard of no
more until he turned up in West
chester, Pa, and was run in for steal
ing jewelry. He was sentenced to Il
term i'll Jail for the act and now his
time is out aud he will be handed
over to the Frederick County authori-
ties to answer the charge held against
him here. He may not be brought
here at once for fear that the old feel
ing that existed at the time of his bru-
tai crime may be aroused and lynch
ing resorted to. Had he been caught
he would have been strung up to the
nearest tree. The penalty for assault
in his case is thirty years in the peni-
Tertiary and if convicted he should
get every year of it. This was one of
the most atrocious crimes in the his
tory of our county and should not fail
to receive the fullest extent of the law.

and rendering her senseless for several
minutes. Deakins was arrested and is

murder.
