Did Not Kill Fer /!

The serenade near Salem q.
week or two ago did not, we are
glad to state, result in the death
of the bride, as was commonly
reported. The principal parties
to the wedding were Mr.. John
Nicholas and Miss Ida Sutton. A
neighbor called at the TELEGRAM
Office Tuesday, and gave US the
facts in the case
The bride and groom were on
the porch, sitting on the banister
watching the serenaders, when
one of them, in passing by on
the outside, discharged a shot
gun in the air, firing upward.
The piece exploded, fragments
flying in every direction. The
gunner was stunned and the
bridegroom knocked insensible!
The cylinder Of the gun struck
the bride on the side of the head,
above an6 back Of the ear. pene-
trating the skull. DR.. Hupp was
summoned and after trephining
the skull, was able to remove
the cylinder that had been i'm
bedded in her brain. The young
bride has been in a critical con
dition for many days; but 1t is
now thought that she will re-.
cover. With the exception Of
being stunned. the others were
but slightly injured.

THAT TRAMP AGAIN.

On the last page of this issue
will be found an account of the
tramp who suddenly became a
millionaire. Later word from Mt.
Vernon, Illinois, states that the
young millionaire. James E.
Berry, was arraigned before
Judge Wells on a charge of wife
abandonment, preferred by his
new wife, Mrs. Sadie Miller
Berry. The case was set for
trial next Wednesday, and Berry
was required to give bond for
$500 for his appearance. Great
excitement ensued when Berry
objected to furnishing bond and
began displaying all kinds OF
bills and saying that he would
furnish the bond himself without
the aid of other people, and this
not being permitted, he made
things lively by tearing $500
bill in. two while the spectators
stood struck with awe at his act.
ion. Several friends signed the
bond.

The September term of our Cir

the goth instant, and will, as usual
attract a crowd to Leonardtown
from every section of the county.
AS prosperity has arrived in such
magnificent proportions we expect
to be crushed" giving receipts for
overdue subscriptions. We hope,
however, none of our friends will
hesitate to call on us because Of the
fear that we will be too busy to
shake hands with them. We will,
as usual, be glad to see them and
promise to find plenty Of time to
rejoice with them over their dollar

remarkable in il that Kansas and
Oklahoma beth voted for free silver
and both have been blessed with
bounteons crops. 1t is also true,
that the wrath Of God for exception
ally heavy Mckinley majorities. is
not the cause Of the failure Of crops
in Iowa and Illinois and ravages in
those States ofthe hog cholera.
No political victory in the U MON
produced the dronth in India, Rus
STA. Argentina or Egyp. and so d.
minished the wheat crop of those
countries as to compell the world
to purchase Its bread supply from
rs. The election of Mckinley did
not bring on the Greco-Turkish
war or the uprising in India against
the English. Neither is it respon-
sible for the splendid rod and line
fishing or oysters being fat. Years
Of plenty and years of famine are
not produced by party victories.
Wise currency legislation would en-
able thrifty farmers to provide for
the years Of scarcity that in the
nature of things will succeed years
Of plenty. Every cent wrung from
them now by unjust tariff taxation
will by so much diminish the stores
laid by for the times of scarcity.

Slept in Jesus Tuesday morning August 10
1897, EVA MAY HENDERSON.
She slept. So gently failed her health.
We scarce could CAL the slumber death;
An infant on its mothers breast
sinks not more sweetly to its rest.
She woke. But what a glad surprise
That Weakening in Paradise
The balmy air, the softened light
OF heaven dispellcd the chill, and night
And set her free; no weary feet
She treads erect the golden street:
And sings with glad exuftant tongue
The anthems she has loved so long.
Dear child Her sojourn here was short;
with pain and i'll her years were fraught:
But now the vigor life denied
Flows through her In "A full, rich tide.
We weep and yet we chide our tears:
Beyond our anxious thoughts aud fears,
Beyond our tenderest wafchfulness
In JOY supreme our darling is
% Jesus soOthe our paia and grief
In Thy sweet will is our relief;
our treasure keep for us above:
Keep us for her in Thy dear love

We'have had great wheat crop
in the Union and there is prospect
of an exceptionally large yield Of
corn. In Maryland last years to.
bacco crop cured well aud brought
fair prices. And it looks as IL good
prices would continue. In some
quarters the cry is that all this is a
result of McKinley's election. This
statement is amusing, but will de-
ceive many, for they will not stop
to think. The year has been ex.
ceptionably seasonable. A kind
Providence has sent the early and
the later rains at times most oppor-
tune. From seed time to harvest
all nature seems to have been ever
