Completion Of Railway to Sligo :

Completion Of Railway to Sligo
The residents in the vicinity of Sligo, this
county, are jubilant over the completion of
the new electric railway of the Baltimore
and Washington Transit Company. Before
the close of the week the road will be in
regular operation.
The new road affords great convenience
to the residents around Brightwood Park.
1t begins at the junction Of the Brightwood
electric railway, passes through Takoma
Park, and for the present terminates at a
point near Sligo creek. II is understood
that the owners OF the road intend to estab
lish summer resort at its present terminus.
Eventually it will be extended to Sandy
Spring. In fact, committee is now can
wasting that section of the country for the
purpose of securing the cooperation OF the
property owners.
1t is estimated that the twelve miles ex.
tension will cost in the neighborhood of
$4,000. Of this the company proposes to
furnish two thirds, if the property owners
will subscribe the remainder.
There Is little doubt that the road will be
extended, as the country through which it
will run 10 thickly populated, and decidedly
isolated, 80 far as railroad facilities are con-
cerned. The building Of the road to Sligo
was done by the Montgomery Construction
Company Of Baltimore.
The cars of the new line will run through
to Seventh street, Washington, over the
tracks of the Brightwood Electric Railway
Company, where transfers will be given TIC
the Metropolitan line and the Capital Trac
ton line.
The officers of the new company are N
Winslow Williams, president; t. William
Harris, vice president and general manager
board of directors, N. Winslow Williams
Alexander Brown, Henry w. Williams, T.
G. Boilleau, I. William Harris, Samuel e.

A New Horse Disease "A dispatch
from Berlin, Worcester county, says: DIR.
E. j. Dirickson, in discussing the new dis
ease prevailing among horses in Worcester
county, and, in fact, all over the Eastern
Shore, says: "This disease very much re-
sembes cerebro meningitis. There have
been ten or twelve deaths in Worcester and
not a single case Of recovery. The first
symptom is an inclination IN the animal to
walk around in circle and press or lean
against some support. There is no disin-
clination to eat, as they will try to take their
food until few hours before death, but are
unable to swallow, not owing to any swell
ling of the throat, but loss of the power
of deglutition. There are but little If any
febrile symptoms, no nervous excitement
nor abdominal swelling, but gradual loss
Of muscular motion, as il the horse was
under the influence of some powerful mar
cotic poison. The action of the heart be-
comes weaker and slower, the breathing
more and more quiet, and death takes place
slowly in about forty-eight hours"
So far the veterinary surgeons are at loss
10 account for and treat this disease, but,
from all the symptoms, 1t Is undoubtedly
caused by some powerful microbe affecting
the nerve centres. Perhaps mild diuretic,
more careful attention to stables and drink,
ing water, thorough purifying of premises
and change of pasture might, in measure,
prevent the invasion Of the fatal disease
The State veterinarian, DR.. II. W. Clements,
is investigating the epidemic and will visit
Worcester county at an early date.

Menhncinus Renorts.

The newspapers are not generally to
blame for mischievous and mendacious
reports which find place in their coll
umns. though they are held responsible
for them. A case in point is the report
published in some newspapers last Tues
day, to the effect that President Cleveland
had declined to receive Gov. Bushnell of
Ohio and his staff.
The facts are stated to be these. Gov.
Bushnell sent number of his staff to
the white house to say to the President
that he and his staff would be glad to call
upon him and pay their respects at any
time the President found it convenient to
receive them. Mr.. Thurbur, the Presi-
dents private secretary, said to the staff
officer that the President was in bed, suf-
fering greatly from an attack Of the rheu-
matism. The President, Mr.. Thurbur ex-
planned, was in bed by order of his physi-
clan. that his ailment was such that he
could not rest his weight upon his foot,
and that he was hoping by remaining in
bed to be able to attend the inaugural of
his successor Mr.. Thurbur further said
that the President appreciated Gov. Bush
nelrs courtesy, and regretted exceedingly
his inability TO receive him.
The staff officer returned 10 Gov. Bush
nell and. it is said, reported simply that
the President declined to receive him. Nat
urany Gov Bushnell felt that he had been
treated with great discourtesy. If the
truth had been reported to him he would
have understood that the President had
acted just as any other man would have
acted under similar circumstances.
What motive could the staff officer have
had in misleading his superior officer and
permitting a report TO get abroad calcu-
lated to injure Mr.. Cleveland? Had he a
grudge against Mr.. Cleveland, and, like
others who have grudges against him,
did he aim to bring Mr.. Cleveland into
disrepute with the public and make him
enemies. or didn't he know the effect and
meaning of the report he made of the re-
suit of his visit to the white house? The
newspapers, of course. accepted the staff
officers statement, and gave it out that
the President had treated the governor of
Ohio with discourtesy. Yet they are not
to blame for the injustice that was done
Mr.. Cleveland. Still not a few held them
responsible for It, The responsibility OF
the man who gave out the false report
was overlooked

cornerinx the wool market.

A few days ago it was given out that
the tariff bin was pretty nearly compile
ted. II seems, however, that many inter-
ests are not yet satisfied A member of
the ways and means committee is quoted
as having said during the present week
that there are a thousand and one in
terests to be taken care of, and Of course
it is not an easy matter 70 satisfy all"
If the ways and means committee under
takes 10 satisfy all interests rather than
frame bill that will produce additional
revenue, 1t will be a good while yet be-
fore the bill will be ready TO be reported
to the House, and when ready to be re-
ported it will be found not to promise as
much revenue as the present tariff.
But what about the wool schedule? 1t
has been understood all along that the
committee was having a vast deal of
trouble with it. The wool growers want
a much higher duty than the committee
thinks they ought to have, an the wool
manufacturers declare that If the de-
mands of the wool growers are granted
they will have TO close their mills un-
less the duty on wooden goods is greatly
increased.
In the meantime a number of specula-
tors, who are sure that a high duty is
to be placed on wool. are buying all the
wool they can get in the markets of the
world, and storing it in Boston and other
cities. 1t is claimed they have already
stored enough wool to supply the de-
mands Of the market of the United States
for three or four years. The proposed
new tariff bill therefore will not produce
much revenue from wool very soon, but
the wool syndicate will reap rich har-
vest. This constant changing of the tariff
offers great opportunities for spectators
to enrich themselves at the expense of
the people.

A Cuban RbnDsody.

Slowly the Spanish column forced its
way through the tangled woods and up
the towering mountain side, says the Chi
cago News. Here and there men slipped,
lost their footing and went bounding over
the precipices to death on the rocks be-
low. The artillery, useless in such an en-
terprise, was abandoned ere the troops
had climbed half mile-all impediments
were thrown aside, and many of the sol
dierS, laying down their guns, continued
the climb armed solely with revolver or
machete.
Hour after hour the troops climbed on.
Not a word was spoken. The sound of
crashing branches, of tumbling rocks and
now and then a shrek as some soldier
went stumbling over the half-hidden pit
falls of the mountain were all that broke
the silence.
STEADY, boysw cried the fierce COM
mander. yet a little farther and we will
have them in their lairl We will surprise
their boasted president-we will seize
upon the seat of their provisional gov
eminent and by one bold stroke thus end
the war;
Grim smiles played over the faces of
the soldiery, and they climbed upward.
In a little valley on the mountains very
peak a group of men, old and dignitied,
men of lofty bearing and proud faces sat
around a table. Their brows were CORFU
gated in deepest thought, and a casual
visitor would have realized at a glance
that these men were intent upon great
subjects-affairs of mightiest conse-
quence. Suddenly there was a shout-the
grave old statesmen sprang to their feet.
The next moment a Spanish officer, sword
in hand, dashed in among them. On ev-
cry side appeared the cruel, eXultant
faces of Spanish soldiers-the CLEAN of
steel flashed among the trees on either
hand.
I'm my powerr' thundered the Spanish
leader. yield, in the name of SPAIN
The oldest and most dignified of the Gu
bans bowed his head ana spread his hands
above the bare eXpanse of the table.
''You come too later said he. I'VE
cashed in half an hour ago--the banker
had us all skinned and has gone down
town with the money. There isn't even a
white chip left on the table!'
"Foiledl foiledw cried the Spanish lead
er, his face turning white with disap-
pointed agony. And his troopers, with
bowed and detected heads, trod painfully
down the mountain side again.
