Balm for Sighted Love.

The following is taken from last
Saturdays Philadelphia Record:
Gan action was yesterday begun
in the Copmon Please Court by
Marie X. Schonleber, by capias
with common bail, against William
A. Phillips, to recover damages for
alleged breach of primise of mar
riage. Miss Schonleber alleges that
she has known Phillips long time,
and after paying his addresses to
her he promised to marry her early
in March last. After that his visits
to her were made almost daily, his
ardor never apparently abating,
and they agreed to be married on
June 9th.
"Shortly before the wedding day,
however, Miss Schonleber alleges,
Phillips requested that the APP
preaching event be postponed until
June 30, and the prospective bride
agreed. When the postponed we'd
ding day arrived, however, Miss
Schonleber says, Phillips refused tC
marry her and broke off the engage
ment. Miss Schonleber alleges that
she left a position with the Key
stone Watch Case Company on May
10Th in anticipation of her nuptials,
and that after the engagement was
broken she was unable to get back
her old position, and has been
unsuccessful in obtaining other
employment.
"Phillips lives in Cecil county,
Md, but comes to this city every
week to attend market, having q
stall in the Ridge Avenue Farmers
Market, and Miss Schonleber claims
that he is worth $4,000 in persona

The Fourth

Was celebrated in Rising Sun in
very Sabbath-like way, it falling
on the Sabbath day. Monday was
set apart for patriotic display. The
bank solemnly closed its doors, but
the interest on notes kept on draw
ing just the same, and the farmers
were too busy with their harvest
on Monday to keep holiday and
call it celebrating the natal day.
The mortgage with its interest whip
and the tax collector, and the store
bill and doctor bill and the whole
family of bills are constantly at the
farmers heels. He has no time to
spend in recreation. When he
drives into town in a second hand
buggy with one of his pillow horses,
the gold bugs "remark" "That's
the reason the farmers complain of
hard times, They spend all their
money and time in fine carriages.
If they would only practice econ
omy' they would all be well fixed
and probably absolutely rich !"
Farmers must learn to "econ-
omize.n
The stores were closed with the
door ajar and clerk inside, all eel
ebrating the glorious "fourth. :"
The little boys snapped fire crackers
i'm the streets all dav. and at NIGHT
a few roman candles, rockets and
other fire works were set off at
various places in town. For four
teen hours the sun poured down on
the dusty roads and streets in all
his glory and majesty, making it
hot for the celebrators, as the Old
Continentals in '76 made things
hot for the red coats.

holders of the Elkton and Middle

National Bank of Elkton Tuesday
and officers were chosen for the ell
suing year. Jacob Tome was elect
ed president. Mr.. Schwartz was
the only Philadelphia gentleman
who attended the meeting. When
asked whether the road would soon

that is necessary is for the news
papers to manufacture sufficient
prosperity.
The object of the meeting was to
keep the charter alive and bar out
the ''Southern" company, whose
object also is to keep their charter
alive and bar out the Middletown
company. Neither will ever build

Verdict Against Tome Institute.

The case Of A. S. Davis and
others against the Jacob Tome In-
stitute of Port Deposit, on trial at
Bel Air, was given to the jury on
Saturday afternoon, and late the
same night a verdict was rendered
for the plaintiffs for part of the
land as claimed under their loca-
tions and $3.50 mesne damages. The
effect of this is to give the plaintiffs
24X40 feet of lot 81, on which the
institute building stands, and all of
the same lot between the Columbia
and Port Deposit Railroad and the
Susquehanna river. This case has
been on trial since Saturday, June
10th, occupying the attention of the
court continuously for three weeks,
and during the argument on the
prayers night sessions of court were
held by Judge Waters. The wit
nesses examined on both sides were
numerous and the amount of evil
dence adduced was very large. The
record of the trial consisted of over
/ 200 pages of type written matter.
The case grows out of the disputed
title to lots 80 and 81, in the town
of Port Deposit, on which Hon,
Jacob Tome has erected the insti-
tute which bears his name.
The topography of the lots has
been materially changed by accre-
ton from the river, thus giving
greater depths to the lots, with the
knowledge and tacit consent of the
grantees under which the heirs of
Davis claim title was another inn
portant feature of the case, as also
the mersing of the fee simple and
leasehold interests of different
owners.
These involved questions of law
and facts, which made the case as,
Judge Waters said in rendering his
decision on the prayers, "the most
extraordinary case he had known
in his experience"
The case throughout was ably
conducted by Messrs. Constable,
Warburton, Archer and Young fol
the plaintiffs and Messrs. Williams,
Crothers, Haines and Van Bibber
for the defendants.-Record.
