Burned to Death.

William Hughes was burned to
death last Saturday, near Madonna,
Hartford county. He was quite
feeble and about eighty-three years
of age. He lived alone with the
exception Of colored man, who
did the chores about the place.
The colored man had gone out to
milk, leaving Mr.. Hughes seated
by a table, on which was a lighted
lamp. Mr.. Hughes arose to cross
the room and accidentally upset the
lamp, which fell on the floor and
burst, scattering the blazing oil all
around. Mr.. Hughes fell to the
floor in the flames and was sc
badly burned that he died in few
hours.

Spring Duties.
THE CLEANING UP SEASON-ACT AT
ONCE ON THE FOLLOWING SUG-
GESrIONS AND SAVE A
DOCTORS BILL.


GESTIONS AND SAVE A
DOCTORS BILL.
The spring of the year is, by un
iversal practice and consent, the
annual cleaning up period. 1t is
necessary and right that it should
be so. Filth accumulates during
the winter months more than at
any other season for the reason
that it cannot be so effectively re-
moved. Snow, ice, slush and mud
are combined to leave traces of
uncleanness that can only be thor
Oughly effaced when warm weather
arrives, and hence it is that in the
spring there is regular warfare
waged for weeks against dirt.
The time for the annual cleaning
seige of 1897 is here. 1t is always
best to begin early, for filth and
warm weather are great disease
breeders. The two produce fevers,
diphtheriaand all sorts ofepidemics,
SO that it is absolutely essential to
the good health of the inhabitants
of any town that there be an early
spring cleaning up. 1t will not do
to put it off, for there is danger in
delay. Then the task is not a small
one and cannot be completed as it
should be if hurried. If begun now
things will he in none too good
shape when the warm weather sets
in few weeks later.
In the cleaning up season every
body should work. The borough
authorities should see to it that the
filth is removed from the streets
and alleys. Then every home needs
attention. Cellars particularly
should receive careful inspection
early. Death oftentimes turks in
decaying potatoes, apples, cabbages
and turnips and all such disease
breeders should he removed at
once. Go over the house from top
to bottom, if necessary, throw open
all the windows aud let things have
am airing, clean up the back yard,
look after the pipes, drains, sewers
aud closets, remembering all the
while that not only is cleanliness
next 10 godliness," bat that il is
also absolutely essential to the pres
.ervation Of your own good health
as well as that Of your family and
ueighbors. Improve the cleaning
up season, Cor Il is worth your
while 90 do so.-Ex,

rlore Resolutions Against the Race
Track.

The Maryland Republican editors held
convention at the Shoreham in Wash
ington. d. c., last week and passed the
following resolutions:
WHEREAS; The brutal treatment of
spirited and high bred horses, the pro-
family and disorder, and the evasion of
laws against gambling and other species
Of fraud which are concomitants of horse
racing as conducted on the outlaw race
tracks in Cecil county call for the con-
domination and opposition of all Christian
people; therefore,
ReSoiVed, That it is the sense of the
Republican Editorial Association of
Maryland that the Maryland Legislature,
at its next session, should enact such laws
as will prohibit and prevent this species
of gambling in this state, while guarding
the rights and protecting the interests of
agricultural associations.

SpeakeaSieS.

Complaint has recently broken
out in some circles of a speakeasy
visitation in the tight little town of
Rising Sun. On Saturday night
last the manifestations were marked
and very conspicuous. A prize
fight near the depot and another at
Colora both on the "Lord's Day."
were part of the aftermath of the
previous nights Saturnalia.
Whether the speakeasies are of
the bootleg or stationary variety we
were unable to learn but probably
of both kinds. Here appears to be
work for the Law and Order
League, and in case of the Leagues
demise, the Order of the w. G. T.
U. is next in line for work. A
search for the boOtleggers or the
stationary concerns can be instituted
Physicians can be hauled over the
Goals, their prescriptions demanded
and examined, witnesses called up
to answer before the Squire where
they got the liquor that disturbed
the town and fined for being drunk
and disorderly-if they don't
answer. In short there is plenty
of law to squelch the speakeasies,
walking or standing. All that is
required is little grace behind the
law to give it push. 1t is good
