MONUMENT DESIGNS.
FAMOUS SCULPrORS COM
PETE.
The Committee on Designs OF the
Key Monument Association now
Busily Engaged in Making Sc
lection From the Numerous De-
signs and Models Submitted.

For several days recently Frederick
has been literally thronged with rep
resentatives of large firms of monu-
ment designers, and even the sculp-
tors themselves came in person to SUBJ
nit models of their creation for accep-
lance by the Committee ON Design of
the Key Monument Association.
Some time ago proposals were submit
ted to the leading designers in this
country to furnish models and draw,
ings for suitable monument shortly
to he erected over the remains of the
noted poet and patriot, which now re.
pose unmarked save by an humble
headstone in Mt. Olivet Cemetery.
The price t. be paid for the same was
fixed at $4,000 and must conform to
the specifications sent out by the asso.
citation.
The main requirement is that it
shall be composed of pedestal sur
mounted by a heroic statue of Key in
bronze. Allegorical figures and de-
signs or other embellishments were
left to the artists taste. Among the
noted sculptors who submitted designs
and drawings were Professor Ameties
and Mr.. Dunbar, of Washington;
Messrs. Bearer, st. Gaudens aud
j.. Q A. Ward, of New York; Keyser,
of Baltimore; H. Il. Eliicott, Of Wash
ington; Augustus Linkman, of New
York, {. J. Pike, of Baltimore, and
several others. The committee will
carefully consider the designs and
make report in the near future.
The committee on design consists of
the following: Folger McKinsey, chair
man; DR.. Edward Nelson, Mrs. A. l..
Eader. Mrs. Judge Richie, Mrs. He
len Schley, Mrs. J. Hanshew Marley,
Mrs. F. f. Smith, all of Frederick;
Miss Elizabeth Bryant Johnson, of
Washington; Miss Eleanor Murdoch

The Pennsylvania Railroad via the
Western Maryland to Baltimore.

The managers of the Pennsylvania
and Western Maryland Roads have
decided to continue the morning train
to Baltimore which leaves Frederick
at 1850 each week day, and arrives in
Baltimore at 1920. To accommodate
the business men of Frederick and the
travelling public, this train was put on
tn road and every facility has been ac-
corded. Passengers by this route have
the advantage of three stops in Balti-
more, and pass through one of the most
beautiful sections of the Sta.e. The af-
ternoon trains to Baltimore leave at 800
and one still later at 500, which is a
fast train, making fur connections
with Philadelphia and New York. If
the people sustain the effolts thus made
to please them, these trains will be con-
tinued and better service, even, viii be
given during the summer.

Additional Bri is.

Mr.. p. E. Long has secured the high
class drama, Hands Across the sea-"
as an attraction at the Opera House
next Monday night, the 18th. This
play was presented here recently, and
was very much enjoyed by all.
The case of David Croft versus the
Corporation Of Frederick was taken up
by The Court on Tuesday. The plain
tiff sues for $4,000 damages for trespass
upon his property in widening street.
Messrs. Motter and Urner represented
Mr.. Croft, Mr.. Mausby being the coun-
sci for he city. The jury awarded Mr..
Croft $3.50 damages. This case has
been hanging on tor many years.
1t was at once seen that nothing
could save the structure, aud the at
tention of the companies was directed
to saving adjoining property. This
was accomplished after fierce fight
with the flames. Two horses were
burned to death, also bull dog, which
were tied in the stable. One of the
horses belonged to Mr.. Harry Kris,
and the other to William Williams, {
colored man. Mr.. jeff Krise lost {
buggy. The contents of the stab,
we've totally destroyed.

ROBBERS RICH HAUL.
A MIDNIGHT VISIT.
Masked Burglars Force the Doors
at Araby Toulouse, Bind Hus-
band and Wife and Ransack
the Premises.

Quite daring robbery was COM
mitted last Friday morning, about 2
o'clock, at the second dollhouse on the
Georgetown pike, near the residence of
Mr.. James IL. Gambril. Mr.. Abra-
ham Mikesell resides there aud is the
toll-gate keeper. About the hour men
toned above, he heard noise down.
stairs, and thinking it was some late
travellers who wanted the bar raised,
he put on some clothes and started
down stairs AS he was going down
he encountered two men clmiug up
the steps. Their faces were hidden by
halt-masks, and their evident intent
was robbery. Somewhat surprised at
this unwelcomed visitation, aud at
such an unusual hour, Mr.. Mikesell
ordered them to leave the place al once,
whereupon the men seized him and,
aftera struggle, succeede; in tying him.
During the encounter the toll Keeper
was very badly bruised. The noise at
tracted Mrs. MIkesell to the scene aud
she, too, was securely bound 10y the
miscreants, who then, unmolested, went
through the house, Two other men
then Joined the first two in the search
and secured about 500 worth of money
and valuables. Husband and wife
were left lying on the floor, but finally
they managed to unloOsen the ropes
that bound them and noted the extent
of the burglars booty. The case was re-
ported to the authorities in the nom
ing, but the robbers had made them
selves scarce by that time. Mr.. Mike
sell says he could not recognize any of
them, but says they were pow erful men
aud seemed acquainted with the prem
ises 1t is supposed that they were
lramps and that they escaped on a
freight tram from the Junction, which
is only a short distance away. Mrs.
Zinmerman,a IAN )ther lady in the house,
has been in bad health lately, and the
shock was great strain upon her sys-
tenn. Mr.. ami Mrs. Mikesell have had
charge of the toll-gate for number of
years, and this is the first exp arieuce
of the kind that mas marked their quiet
lives. The robbers secured an entrance
through the front door by breaking
the lock. This made the noise which
first attracted Mr. Mse's attention.
No clew has Yet been found as to the
identity of the burglars.

The Bradley Martin Ball Thing
of the Past.

The famous Bradley-Martin ball
came off in brilliant style at the Hotel
Waldorf, in New York City, Wednes-
day evening, and from ali accounts
was as thoroughly enjoyable as it was
gorgeous and enchanting. The cos
tunes were of the three preceding
centuries, and TO say the least, they
were exquisite. Many were especially
designed for the occasion. The floral
decorations were elaborate and har-
mOniZed well with the Kaleidoscope
colorngs ofthe Costumes. All fashioIl-
able New York was there, aud the
evening was one never to be forgotten.
Space forbids lengthy account of this
noted social event, but the magma
ton of our readers, if sufficiently viv-
Id. can form for itself u slight concep-
ton of this fancy ball, about which all
conditions of society are deeply inter-
ested. Several Baltimoreaus were
among the guests.

Merry Young Masqueraders.

Our correspondent writes: On Thurs
day evening, February 4lh, company
of twenty-five masked people from the
vicinity of Pleasant Grove visited the
home Of Mr.. and Mrs. c. +. Grubbs at
Kemptown. e quiet little village
was first apprfsed of their appearance
by the ringing OF large dinuer bell
attached to The rear eud Of sled Soon
the merry party was dashing through
the village, and the jingle of sleigh
bells and tue fantastic costumes of the
ma>queraders awakened feelings of de-
light in all lovers of innocent sport.
There were nodding plunes, waving
fans, and umbrellas hedecked with
evergreens and flying ribbons; some of
them were conspicuous for rents and
corn cob pendants; altogether they
presented weird appearance in the
semi-darkness. On arriving, they were
welcomed by Mr.. and Mrs. Gruhbs,
who threw open the doors to receive
them. The host and hostess tried hard
TO find out who their visitors were, but
so cleverly were they disguised that it
was impossible to recognize them. Mrs.
Grubbs finally mounted a chair, and
lifting the bat of "a certain tall gentle
man, recognized him by his hair, which
has silver threads among the gold.
Conspicuous among the characters rep
resented were the Bride and Groom
and Queen. After unma,king, they
had music, vocal and instrumental.
The company was invited TO the din
lng-room, where the table was found
to be well supplied with goodies. AT
eleven o'clock they departed, expressing
themselves as highly pleased with the
evening

FIERCE FLAMES.
Frame Stable Destroyed and Ad-
joining Property Saved After
Hard Fight-A Negro Held
On the Charge of Start
ing the Fire.

One of the most destructive confla-
grations with which this city has been
visited lately, occurred last Monday
night, aud the loss in its entirety will
amount to about $1,000 An alarm was
sounded shorty before ten o'clock and
as usual our active fire department re-
sponded on the moment. The bright
reflection in the sky could be seen from
all parts of the city and at first it was
thought to be the large carriage works
near the bridge, but nearer approach
