PafanaaA

Anamia is q condition often called "pov.
erty Of blood" from deficiency Of the red
corpuscles which give to this fluid it's char.
aGteristic color. It arises from insufaciency
Or assimilation OF the proper materials Of
girls. It may occur in persons who have
long suffered with henorrhoids. or in
women from repeated discharges Of blood
from the uterus. The lips and tongue lose
their natural red color and become white
and the face looks like wax.
The most efficient remedy for this conii.

The Rev. DR.. John Brown Burns has
appeared in new role To the title
of Lord High Chief Ruler of the Capitol
Grounds and Buildings, he has added
that of Watch Dog of the Treasury.
The Reverend blossomed out in his new
capacity only within the last few days
since the cold weather has commenced.
His remarkable solicitude for the States
revenue is manifested in protest
against having fires in the State Offices
these cold windy days. He has, am
told, been protesting to some of the JAM
tors and office boys against such a
waste of official fuel. And yet, these
very janitors claim that the Doctor has
been accustomed to have fire kindled
in his own office almost every day this
summer. 1t has been suggested for
DIR. Burns consideration, that economy,
like charity, ought to begin at home.

Fatal Driving Accident.

A runaway with fatal results
occurred near Chesapeake City on
Thursday evening of last week.
Rudolph Buckworth, a young far
mer, went to Chesapeake City and
taking two young ladies, Miss
Laura Logue and Miss Rachel
Lovelace with him, started for a
drive. On Harriott's hill about
half a mile north of town the horse
became frightened, SHE'D and threw
Mr.. Buckworth and Miss Lovelace
out, Miss Logue remained in the
carriage for a short distance but as
the lines were dragging on the
ground and she had no means of
stopping the horse it is supposed
she jumped out. She was found
several hundred yards further up
the road in an unconscious and
dying condition. She was cut and
bruised about the head and one leg
was broken. She died shortly after
she was found.
Mr.. Backworth and Miss Love
lace were not seriously injured.
The horse continued its flight and
about 8 O'Clock reached Elkton and
ran rapidly up Main street eluding
all attempts to stop him. He was
afterward caught on the pike about
three miles east of Elkton, having
run fully nine miles. The team
was intact not having sustained the
slightest damage.
Miss Logue, the unfortunate vic
tim of the accident was IS years of
age and daughter Of B. T. Logue,
of Chesapeake City.

Corn Has a New Enemy

Prof. johnson, State entomologist
has been called to investigate a new
insect in the lower part of Cecil
county and reports the following in
the Baltimore Sun:
81 have just returned from Cecil
ton, on the Sassafras river, where |
was called to make an investigation
of an insect that is doing serious
damage to corn. The principal out
break is upon the extensive farm of
G. M. and f. III. Eldridge and %
acres of corn have been completely
ruined. The injury is done by an
insect that cuts into the stalk just
at on beneath the surface of the
surface of the ground. A large
amount of material was collected
and the parent insect which pro
duces the worm will be bred in my
laboratory. | am of the opinion
that the trouble is caused by the
SO called stalk borer. AS soon as
the adult is reared and specific
determination made a remedy will
be suggested. The pest has been
very common in sections of lower
Cecil and upper Kent counties and
the farmers are very apprehensive
about the safety of next years crop.
1t is quite likely that the attack is
local and farmers in other sections
of the State need not have any very
grave fears from the pest next
season.
81 have also just completed a trip
through the tobacco section of the
State and find that the growers are
very much alarmed about the safety
of their crops from the attack of the
second brood of tobacco or horn
worms. The first brood has been
unusually destructive and it is quite
certain that a large second brood
will appear in few days. The
worms are now in the ground,
where they will change to chrysa-
lids, from which the adult moth or
horn caster will emerge in a short
time. The immunity of any field
from the attacks of these pests de-
ponds largely upon the destruction
of the first brood and while the to-
bacco is small. | am now about to
begin series of experiments with
various bats and traps to catch the
parent moths before they begin to
deposit the eggs"

The Arena.

The Arena for August is q mag
azine of great merit as a treaties on
economic subjects of the time which
are engrossing the best thought OF
the day. Although the flood gates
of greed, which pour their turbid
waters on the world in a stream
that never was equaled in the world
before, threaten to engulf and de-
stroy civilization as it sweeps on TO
its own destruction, the array of
writer's who are pouring the electric
light of thought over the dark flood
reyives hope in the despairing who
are ready to faint.
The table of contents of the Aug
ust number gives but a faint
glimpse of that contents. The ar
ticles must be read to appreciate
their power, when focused on the
faIsehood and horrible perversion
of truth, honesty and even plaus-
lille sophistry.
"The Open Letter to Eastern
Capitalists" by Charles G. Willard
of Kansas, is worth, to use far
mer expression, "a day in harvest. "
The plain unyarnished truths are
put in such a humorous vein of
irony, that eastern capitalists"
may be persuaded to wake up to
the truth that the result of their
greed is overtaking them and tax
ing them to bear the expense of
government of the western States,
that are about to demonstrate, to
their establishment, no doubt, that
they are too vast to be swallowed
and the said capitalists are being
made to gay their own debts.
"The Battle Of the Money
Metals" by George H. Lepper,
a goldbug, and the answer to his
curious reasoning and false state
ments by the editor, John Clark
Ridpath, would have to be read to
form any conception OF the depraV-
ity of the advocates of the gold
trust. We were charitable enough
to believe Mr.. Lepper ignorant of
the subject he attempts to discuss,
but Mr.. Ridpath takes him
seriously and proceeds to hold him
up as stupendous and uncon-
fraud.
The Arena is great magazine
and is pouring a flood of light from
a corps of gifted writer's ON the
great, live, economic questions
which are bound to stir the United |
States for the next decade as the
people of the country have never
before been awakened.

The conference report of the
Dingley Tariff bill was passed by
the Senate on Saturday by a vote OF
10 to 30. The bill was then signed
by Speaker Reed and Vice-P resi-
dent Hobart and Immediately taken
to the White House, where it was
signed by President Mckinley in
the presence of Chairman Dingley
President Mckinley sent mes
sage to Congress on Saturday urg
ing it to authorize the appointment
of currency commission to inves-
tigate the monetary and banking
laws of the country and report not
later than Nov. LIST. The House
promptly passed such a bill, but in
the Senate the message was referred
to the Finance Committee.
The extra session of the Fifty
fifth Congress closed at 8 o'clock on
Saturday night, when both Senate
and House adjourned.
AS soon as Congress adjourned
the goldbug dailies commenced, as
if by prearranged concert, manu-
featuring ''good times"-on paper.
They had the precaution to place
the period six months off. Poor

to come, not on bicycle, but on
skates.

left Washington Wednesday at
noon in special car over the Penn
sylvania Railroad and reached

Thursday morning. Secretary and
Mrs. Alger and Secretary and Mrs.

80 Years Of Cures.
Gorman's Honey Plank.

| The State convention of the Dem
ocratic party of Maryland met in
Baltimore on Wednesday and pro-
claimed their views on the financial
question which is sure to rack the
country from one end to the other,
and for which utterance all the
county conventions were ordered to
wait. Here it is
eve note with satisfaction that the de-
inand of more than six and one-half mil
lions of democratic voters expressed at
the polls last November has compelled
President Mckinley and Republican
congress to urge upon the European
powers, through the medium of duly
appointed commission, the necessity for
an international conference to arrange
the terms of bimetallic system, under
the operation of which both gold and sill
yer shall be used and recognized as money
of final redemption.
''The sufferings of the masses, the hon
est toilers, the bone and sinew, the brain
and courage and manhood Of the land,
have met with the sympathy of the de-
mocracy, and the protest of our great
party, so eloquently voiced i'll last years
elections, has forced the Republican party,
despite its arrogance aud recklessness, to
recognize the needs, of an aroused and
patriotic people. And, while many DEM
ocrats have not approved all the express
sions of their party i'll national conven-
ton, bimetallism will surely come. 1t
may come through the instrumentalities
set in motion by the present administra-
ton, though in truth inspired by the in
trepid action of the Democratic voters
But it will come, and the prosperity and
happiness that follow in its train will be
due to the courage, the undaunted fidelity
and the intelligent patriotism of the
Democracy"
Good Lord, what a mockery |!
And this is Mr.. Germans declara-
ton on the reconciliation of silver!
He seems to pin his faith to the
ludicrous rowing bimetallic COM
mission composed of three men sent
to Europe to ask the gold bankers
what they think of "international
bimetallism." What does Mr..
German think about it This is a
pretty ridiculous position which the
famous Democratic party of Mary
land has allowed itself to be placed
in. What do they propose to do in
aid of free coinage?
The silver men and Populists of
Maryland spew such stupid hypoc-
racy out and spit on such worse
than silly platform.
