The Farmers Institute Will Hold
Picnic at Braddock Heights
Sometime in August.

Mr.. Columbus Kemp the president
of the Farmers Institute of this coun-
ty, speaks in glowing terms of the pros
pect of the picnic to be held by the
Association sometime in August.
A number of prominent speak
ers will be present and delightful
time will be enjoyed. Several bands of
music will be in attendance. There
has been great interest felt in this
association by the general farming
community. For years they have quiet
ly realized that they have been placed
at great disadvantage by the conses-
siOns made by the various railroads to
western shippers The Frederick Coun-
ty farmers are paying the same rate of
freight on all produce from this point
as is paid by the Chicago shippers, and
il is even claimed that drawbacks are
given to western shippers, thereby CIV
ing them great advantages over those
living near the sea board. With cheap
western lands and cheap labor, the
Maryland farmer on high price lands
and high prices for LABOR, finds
il difficult to compete with his western
neighbors. But as usual, the farmers
will fail to cooperate with those who
could he of service to them in so inn
portant a question. Farmers have much
to learn in looking after their own in
terest, and it is about time for them to
wake up and look about. President
Sylvester, Of the Maryland Agricul-
tural College, will be present and adj
dress the farmers on 1.-The Cooperation
of Farmers. Asst Ag., G. II. Bring
ham, Prof. W. l.. Moore, of the Weather
Bureau, and Prot. o. l.. Mason will
will also deliver addresses. Mr.. Wilson,
the Commissioner of Agriculture, has
been invited, and is expected TO be
present.
Since the above was written there
have arisen some deterring circum-
stances over which the committee had
no control, which will necessitate
change in the date of the proposed
meeting. 1t is very probable that the
outing will be held at Braddock
Heights, so President Columbus Kemp
informs us, and as the Emancipation
celebration comes on August 18th, it
will be eXpedient 10 make the date the
18th or thereabouts, according to the
convenience of the distinguished guests
who have promised to be present The
correct date will appear in the CITIZEN
in due time.

THE B. & o. FIGHT.
Trust Company's Answer to the
Receivers Petition.

The Mercantile Trust Company of
Baltimore has filed its answer protest.
ing against the granting of the petit
tion of John X. Cowen and o. G..
Murray, Receivers for the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad Company, for au-
thority to purchase rolling stock to the
amount of 81, 345.5
The Mercantile Trust and Deposit
Company is trustee under the mort
gage of 1887 upon the main division of
the road. 1t is asserted that it does
not appear that the proposed equip
ment is required for the main line,
aud that to pay for it out of the reve-
nues of the main line would be divert
ing the revenues, and may result in
defaulting the interest upon the bonds
secured by the mortgage of 1887. 1t
is maintained that the receivers have
no right to improve the equipment of
the railroad. Their sole duty is to
maintain the railway as it was when
they took charge of it. From indica-
lions of a remarkable character, it is
dollars to cents that the receivers will
carry out their plans.

Our Public Schools in Danger.

To the Editors of Citizen:
l observe through the press of Bal
timore, that the Baltimore and Ohio
has failed to pay the interest on the
Washington Branch of the Baltimore
and Ohio. If l am not mistaken, it
was the failure of the State to collect
the interest due her from this road
during the war which crippled the
public schools at that time. | am get
ting to be quite an old man. but think
my memory still serves me well.
Owing to the heavy travel, the trans
portation of troops, etc., the Baltimore
and Ohio refused to pay its just dues
to the State at the time above men,
toned. The case was taken to the
court, where the rights of the State
were maintained. The powers then
in control of the road, which had been
saved 10y the State going to its assis-
lance, took the case to the Supreme
Court. Then the Court not fearing
railroad millionaires, sustained the de-
cision of the courts below, thus insur-
ing the money due the State from the
Baltimore and Ohio The State, how
ever, failed to receive her money and
our public schools were thus made to
suffer. The case was taken before the
Legislature of Maryland. where ow-
ing to certain influences, c0mpro-
mise was effected which caused Mary
land to lose nearly million dollars.
Now, fear we are confronted with
other dangers. Why is the press of
the State silent upon so important a
question? The public schools are in
danger aud it is the duty of the peo-
pie to have this matter looked into at
once. Short terms of schools stare the
people in face. Who will act in this
matter?

The workman often eats his lunch
on the same bench where he does his
work. The Office man turns his desk
into a dining-table. Neither gets the
out of doors exercise he needs, neither
takes the proper time for eating. 1t is
small wonder that the digestion of both
gets out of order. In such cases Dr.
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets come to their
assistance by aiding nature in taking
care of the food.
The cause of nine-tenths of the sick
ness of the world is constipation. From
this one cause come indigestion; disor-
ders of the stomach. liver and kidneys;
biliousness, headaches, fatulence, hear t.
burn, impurity of the blood and the Sc.
rious complications that follow. To be-
gin with, constipation is little thing
and little thing will cure it. The
"Pleasant Pellets" are tiny, sugar
coated granules. They will perfectly
cure the worst case of constipation anC
indigestion. If the druggist tries to sci
you some other pill that pays hin
greater profit, just think Of schdt aOil

A Cleaning Badly Needed.

Notwithstanding the beautiful country
through which the Buckeystown pike
passes and the other public roads in
that district, we find the road sides all
grown up with unsightly weeds, briars
and bushes. Even the fences around
the school house in Buckeystown is
patched up with a lot of old dead
branches OF trees. Surely this is not
IN keeping with the spirit of improve
ment and enterprise manifested in the
surroundings of Buckeystown. Why
do not the school trustees keep their
premises neat and in order?

Degenerate Names.

Plain Mary Ann and Sarah Jane
have been so regenerated that they
scarcely know themselves. Take Mary
for instance. 1t is beautiful, sweet
and musical name, but somebody
shortened it to May. May became
Mae and Maye and Mai. 1t appears
bizarre in its new dress, but it doesn't
appear bit better. Then Sarah go,
too prosaic, SO it was transformed into
Sara, lara, Sairahe and goodness
knows how many more Ouflandish
forms. Edith is Edythe, Luella il
Llewella, Jane is Gean, Esther is Els
thur, Alice is Alys, and SO it goes in
determinately. While the new women
are engaged SO busily in organizing for
various good and charitable causes,
why not organize a society for the
prevention of cruelty to names?" Pos
sibly there are too many women in
love with new spelling. 1t is dread
full tax on young men to address a note
to a young lady as Miss Catherine
Page, for instance, only to ascertain
that she spells it Kathryn, and is
quite put out because he knows nc
better. New York Telegram.

writer and artist witnessed the splen-
did ceremonies at Moscow from the
standpoint of official visitors-Mr
Woodville with a royal commission
from Queen Victoria and Mr.. Davis as
the representative of Harper's Maya
zine. Both are at their best in repro
ducing the gorgeous spectacle, and the
result will stand as the final account
of the most imposing state ceremony of
modern times. To the same number
Charles F. LOOMS will contribute the
first of series of timely articles on
Mexico, the spirit of which is charac-
terized in the title, 1.-THE Awakening
of a Nation" These papers are the
result of three months journey I'M
dertaken for Harper.s Magazine by

thority on the subject. They will be

Beethoven's Singular Habits.

Beethoven, the celebrated composer,
MAS a slave to two imperious habits
that of moving his lodgings, and that
of walking. Scarcely had ne settled in
a new lodging than he began to find
fault with 1t, and set about looking for
another. Every day after dinner, what
ever the weather, rain, wind, hail, or
snow, he would set out on foot and take
n long and fatiguing walk. Indeed, it
may have been his peculiar habits
which occassioned his frequent changes
of abode. He was fond of bathing, and
would splash the water until the cell
ings of the rooms below were soaked
and fell. When composing he would
howl and groan in so dismal manner
that often the people in the same house,
ignorant of his ways, rushed in, think
ing he was i'll. He used to go about
dressed in an old coat, with slippers
trodden down at the heels.
