pended on to do It's duty.
Seldom have the delegates to any
political convention in Frederick
County assembled with more ideal evil
dence of harmony and fulfilled their
obligations to the party whose repre-
sentatives they were with more unan-
unity of spirit and action than those
that came TO Frederick on Saturday
last, to nominate Democratic ticket
to be voted for in November next.
The personelle of the ticket can be
seen at the head of the editorial page
aud by all it is pronounced good one.
Every name from the judge down to
the surveyor is eminently qualified for
the position he aspires to by the votes
of the people of this county.
The convention met at the City
Opera House at noon and proceeded to
business. Mr.. Chas. n. Hargett called
the assembly to order in few graceful
words and called for nominations for
temporary chairman. The name of
Mr.. Glenn H. Worthington, a promi-
nent lawyer at our bar, was the only
one offered and he was unanimously
chosen for the position. In taking the
chair he made brief but eloquent adj
dress, thanking the committee for the
honor that had been conferred upon
him. He spoke of the bright chances
of victory for the party this fall and
advised harmony and the nomination
of the best candidates.
Messrs. William j. Grove, of Lime
Kiln, and Clayton Trundle were Sc
lected as secretaries.
The following committees on resolu-
tions and credentials and order of BUSH
ness were then appointed and retired
to make their report:

After Reaching 70 They Usually Retire
 or Enter Another Occupation.
 "Did you ever notice, " said veteran tonsorial artist, who had shaved New Haveners since 1878, to New Haven Register man, "that you only see few old barbers?''
 Why is it?''
 "There are a good many reasons, !" answered the veteran knight of the blade 1T suppose the chief one Is that 8 barber's hand becomes unsteady after he gets to be about 40 years old and he has to give up. A good many barbers drink hard, and that makes their nerves and hands unfit for service, and they retire before they cut their customers threats. Still, I will say that in all my experience of S7 years I never saw a man badly cut by barber, not even by an accident for which the barber was not responsible. "
 What becomes of the barbers after they retire?"
 "Oh, some of them go to the poor house," he replied, with twinkle in his eye, land some of them, who have saved their wages, buy little places and live on them, perhaps running a farm. Some of them, of course, go into other business, perhaps bookselling or else be- come insurance agents. have heard of barbers who gave up the business and became butchers. This isn't such wide difference from their former business (what are you laughing atD as it might seem- No, don't mean that they learn to carve people or even to skin them in the barber business, but they learn how to handle blade skillfully and they make first class meat cutters"

Pipe Made of . Seals Tusk.

A pipe made out of seals tusk was seen at the Weare office recently. The stem is nearly foot long ahd is quaintly illustrated with representa- tions of life under the arctic circle.
 The artist was an Indian, and the little sketches in India ink show up very well against the ivory background.
 There is 8 reindeer about to fall un- der the arrow of an archer. There is a sledge drawn by dogs. Fir trees, tepees, fishing scene, where the captives are being brought to shore in a net, are all true to life.
 Another ornament of the same char acter is pair of walrus tusks, with de- lineations of other Alaskan scenes, with the fox and the white polar bear in evil denoe; also an Eskimo leveling gun at the latter.
 It is said that to add to the terrors of overland travel in the long winter months the larger wild animals are of- ten driven by hunger to attack the trails men, and packs of ferocious wolves will besiege camp for days, attacking the horses and reindeer as well as the dogs More than one caravan has been done to death in this manner, as the whitened bones strewn along the tracks show.- Chicago Inter Ocean.

Singing Among the Greeks.

Our present system of public instruc- tion is not so modern as some would have us believe. Sparta had her state superintendent, who, if distant report is to be trusted, was an educational despot. But while he yielded his walk ing stick freely. during official visits and encouraged his subordinates to ply the rod on all occasions, he was as dii- gent promoter of music as is any hu- mane and progressive educator of our era. AS result the little Laced@mo- nians sang blithely, no matter what tor ment was going on under their tunics. And all over Greece, in those dim days, were schools ranging from infant grades instructed under Arcadian hedges to university extension schemes harbor- ed in buildings uniquely termed 'places of leisure. {" The infants were drilled in their alpha beta gammas, the older boys were taught poetry and gymnas- tics, with something of arithmetic, geometry and drawing, and adults spent their leisure with rhetoricians and soph- ists, paying handsomely for the priv ilege. But music was sine qua non of Greoian life, in school and In sport, in battle and in burial. The epic and ele- giac chantings at festivals, the calm speculations of Pythagoras as to the music of the spheres, the choral out burst of "the great fifth century," the martial odes of Tyrtseus and Pindar, all show the national love for melody of voice as well as for high and harmo- nious thought. An old time Greek set down amid the strident, metallic voices of our occidental world would feel that the furies had seized either upon him or the continent he was visiting. Ger trude E.

singing, and we will have nothing to do." And you know as well as that there are great multitude of churches all through this land where the people are not expected to sing The whole work is done by 8 delegation of four or six or ten persons, and the audience are silent. In such @ church in Syracuse an old elder persisted in singing, and 80 the choir appointed committee to go and ask the elder if he would not stop You know that in many churches the choir are expected to do all the singing, and the great mass of the people are ex- pected to be silent, and if you utter your voice you are interfering In that church they stand, the four, with opera glasses dangling at their side, singing Rock of ages, cleft for me, t" with the same spirit that, the night before on the stage, they took their part in the "Grande Duchesse' or "Don Gio- vanni."
 My Christian friends, have we 8 of this duty which God demands of us2 Suppose that four wood thrushes propose to do all the singing some bright day when the woods are ringing with bird voices. It Is decided that four wood thrushes shall do all the singing of the forest. Let all other voices keep silent. How beautifully the four warblel It is really fine music. But how long will you keep the forest still? Why, Christ would come into that forest and look up, as he looked through the olives, and he would wave his hand and say, "Let everything that hath breath praise the Lord,' and, keeping time with the stroke of innumerable wings, there would be 1000 bird voices leaping into the harmony.

PLENTY OF CHALK.
Great Block That Was Once as Large aa
the Continent of Europe.

Great Block That Was Once as Large al
the Continent of Europe.
The small piece of chalk which is in
constant use in the schoolroom, the lee
ture room. the billiard room and the
workshop has strange history, the I'M
raveling of which through all it's COM
plexities is one of the most difficult
problems with which the science of the
present day is called upon to deal. This
piece is in reality chip of an immense
block of chalk that once filled an area
the size Of the continent of Europe, and
OF which even yet several gigantic frag-
ments remain, each hundreds of square
miles in extent These patches are scat
tered over the region lying between Ire
land ON the west and China on the east
and extend in the other direction from
Sweden in the north to Portugal in the
south.
In the British Isles the chalk is found
in greatest perfection and continuity in
the east and southeast of England. A
sheet of chalk more than 1 900 feet in
thickness underIies all that portion of
ILL 4tsI4o NAlASl ID SAIhGNCO W JLO SOubu-
east of a line crossing the island dag
onally from the North sea at Flambor-
ough Head to the coast on the English
channel i'll Dorset. This enormous sheet
of chalk is tilted up slightly on the
west, and its depressed eastern portions
that dip toward the waters of the North
sea are usually buried from sight by
means of everything sands and clays
Where the edges of the chalk floor come
upon the sea the cliff scenery is strik-
ingly grand and beautiful. Any one
who has once seen the magnificent rocks
of Marlborough and Beechy Head, the
Jagged stacks of the Needles or the diz
~ mass Of Shakespeare cliff, near Do
yer, can understand why "the white
cliffs of Albion" has grown into stock
| phrase.
This massive sheet of chalk appears
again in France, in many other parts of
Europe as far east as the Crimea, and
even in central Asia beyond the sea of
Aral. How far it stretched westward
into what is now the Atlantic may new
er be known, but chalk cliffs of at least
200 feet in thickness are seen at An
trim, in Ireland, and less conspicuous
formations are found in Scotland, in
Argyll and Aberdeen. There can be lit
tie question that all these now isolated
patches were once connected in con-
tinuous sheet, which must, therefore,
have occupied a superficial area about
5000 miles long by nearly 1000 broad,
an extent larger than that of the pres
ent continent of Europe. - Pittsburg
