Midsummer Dance.

The midsummer dance by the
young men of Rising Sun, in Cum
mings' Hall last Tuesday evening
was a tlattering success. Thirty
two couples glided through the
mazes of the waltz and two-step to
the excellent music supplied by a
harp orchestra from Philada. An
unusually large number of visitors
were present and all were much
pleased with the event. The reg
ular program of 20 dances, supple
mented with five extras, was given
and still the request was for more,
Notwithstanding the lateness of the
hour. Rising Suns "midsummer"
grows in popularity.

A Bullet In His Brain.

Young James Dalrymple of Port
Deposit, an account of whose acct
dental shooting while on boyish
"bee hunt" frolic was published in
last weeks MIDLAND, and who was
taken to a hospital in Wilmington,
showed symptoms of recovering,
according to the Wilmington News
which gave an account of the case
ON the following Wednesday.
When the wound was examined
it was found that the bullet had
crushed through the skull, making
a very severe fracture. 1t bored a
hole in the bone larger than a ten
cent piece and shattered the sur
rounding part of the skull. The
broken pieces of bone, which had
been depressed, were resting on the
brain, and these were removed,
after which came the serious part
of the operation-probing for the
bullet.
1t was not difficult to follow the
course of the ball, as it had left a
very large track. The probe was
inserted two inches into the brain
and the bullet was not located at
that depth. Part of the loaded
missile had broken off and this was
removed. There is no doubt but
the bullet is somewhere in Dalrym-
ple's brain, as the marks it left are
too plain to be mistaken. DIAL
rymple has greatly improved since
the operation and is now rational.

Cured several years ago to an Elk
ton boy whose brain was penetrated
by a harrow tooth. He recovered
apparently and lived several weeks,
but died suddenly afterwards from
the effects of the injury.

Sad Death of a Child.

Ohio Tayson, three years of age,
son of James A. Tayson who resides
on the farm of Henry Harlan, near
Churchville, Hartford county, met
his death Sunday morning by fall
ing into an unused we'll. The par
ents did not know of the existence
of the well, which had been aban-
doned and covered before they
moved to the place. The child was
missed and prolonged search re-
suited fruitlessly until one of the
neighbors recalled the old well and
on lowering light the child was
found at the bottom. He was dead
when discovered.

BIMETALLIC
CONFERENCE.
Why the Negotiations Opened Came
to Naugh'.
England's Refusal to Reopen Indian
Miuts to Silver.

Washington, Nov. l6.-The official
report of the correspondence in regard to
bimetallic proposals OF the United States
Monetary Commission to the government
of Great Britain, together with the report
of the proceedings at the conference of the
British premier, the Secretary OF State for
India the First Lord of the Treasury
aud the Chancellor of the Excheduer,
with the French ambassador and our
commissioners has reached this country.
1T fully confirms the reports cabled the
Associated Press on Oct II ana %. The
negotiations tell through notwithstand-
ing the expressed willingness of the
French government to open its mints,
owing to the rejection by the British
government of the proposition to again
open the Indian Inints TO free coinage OF
silver. None OF the other propositions
was replied to because tnat one, the most
important of the concessions requested or
Great Britain. could not be acceded to.
Great Britain in making her answer de-
ferred TO tho wishes OF the government OF
India TO which the proposal was referred
and the reply of the Indian government,
therefore, is the most important COM
munication in the correspondence.
1t Is q lengthy document in which the
advantage OF pro and con to India are
argued and n very strong case from their
standpoint is msde out in fnvor Of the
rejection of the proposal. The disturbance
of values In India with tho attendant
paralysis Of trade. nj least temporarily, the
fall OF silver prices In India conourrently
with the increase Of gold prices In Europe

most potent reason urged against the
proposition Is that the burden of failure.

NOTES NOT TAKEN UP ON TIME.

The Kent & Stanley Company, limited,
is again in trouble This morning dep.
uty sheriff appeared at the Office Of the
company and announced that he had a
writ Of attachment for $50, 900 issued on
complaint OF tho American National
bank, because Of non payment OF notes
due the bank. The sheriff observed the
usual formalities and then left keeper n
charge OF the big building on the corner
of satin and Aborn streets.
The sheriff was informed by the firm
attached that the notes were not duo un-
Gil tomorrow, but this had no beniing on
the duty OF tho s5Crif The attacnu ont
was placed at 12 30 O'Clock.
Cashier Hunt OF the American National
bank stated that it was - simple business
transaction. Ihe KsnU x Stanley Com
pany had failed TO keep their pfcmises on
payments OF extension notes ~ q the at
tachment bad been placed To project tho
value OF the notes They were overdue
and they had not been attended TO.
Shortly after the mammoth building
controlled by the company was completed
financial difficulty was encountered. he
Kent X Stanley company was unable 10
carry the financial burden imposed by
such an extensive enterprise and the busi-
ness community in this imnediat"
by the suspension of this thou yht. to- be
perfectly solvent company.
After thorough Investigation of its
affairs and because of the showing made
To the creditors the company was allowed
TO reorganize, the creditors realizing that
that was likely TO yield the best results TO
all concerned An extension was graz tel
and the company has been endeavor.ng
10 meet its obligations.
In the settlem ,nt OF the first difficulty
the company agreed TO pay A. per cert os
the Indebtedness in cash, 40 per cent In
stock OF the new company and 20 yer cent
in extension notes. These notes are the
source of the pre- ssent trouble. 1t is said
that the company wanted these notes re-
tired for 10 per cent less than their fAce
value and the editors would not agree
to this proposition. Contractor Bishop
OF Worcester, Mas, who is said To te a
holder of about SIS, 900 OF these extension
notes. was in consultation with Cashier
Hunt of tho American National bank
just before the execution OF the writ of
attachment.
Tho attachment, however, seems to in
dictate that more trouble is in store for
the com pany. Constock & Gardiner are
the attorneys for the American National
