Meath of General Horp

General John Watts Horn, formerly super
intendent of the House of Reformation for
Colored Boys, at Cheltenham, Prince
Georges county, died on Monday morning,
at Mitchellvlle. of diabetes and consumption.
General Horn was born in DumfrieS, Aber-
deenshire, Scotland, March 30, 1884. His father
was Alexander Horn, millwright and car
penter. and his mother was Isabel G. Watts, q
lineai descendant of the celebrated inventor of
the steam engine. His father died in 1877.
His parents settled in Baltimore when the Gen
eral was child. Young Horn was educated in
the public schools of that city. He was en-
ployed distributing newspapers, but finding
the occupation prevented him improving his
mind, he entered the bookbndery of Louis
Bonsal, where he was enabled to indulge his
literary tastes by access to books. He was
next engaged in the printing Office of James
Young, Sr. and afterwards was apprenticed
to ehairmaking. which trade he did not like,
and so he gave it up. He then made South
ern tour, and. returning to Baltimore, he was
shortly after attached to the Manchester
Academy this county, as military drill master.
Soon after the academy assumed the name of
Irving College, and, although Mr.. Horn was
really one of the professors, yet he connected
himself with the classes, and sought to i'm
prove his mind by dill igent study. He thus

At the outbreak of the war between the

Bradford, and was assigned TO Company F,
Fifth Maryland Regiment, in command of
Colonel Schley, He continued in the Army
of the Potomac, and participated with his

he was terribly wounded by a MIME ball,
which passed through his body aud left him
helpless He was left on the field as dead,
and when found was regarded as MORALLY

was breveted brigadier general for gallant and
meritorious services. In November, 1866,
he was made one of the police commissioners
of Baltimore city.
In May, 1867, he was appointed by Gov.

whatever is best in American architecture, paint

is seated a handsome young woman with sword
in one hand to punish the guilty, and palm IN
the other to reward the deserving. The aegis OF
Minerva on her breast means that she is the amonr
of Righteousness and wisdom, and on the steps OF
her throne are the Scales of Justice, the Book of
Law and the White Doves of Mercy.
Another panel by Mr.. Dielman is entitled His

A marble bench runs either side of the panel, and
on it are seated two female figures, Mythology and

hand Mythology holds globe of the earth, and as
heroes stands for theories of the system of the uni
verse. b. her SIDE suggesting the insoluble Riddle

The Common Council of Westminster on
Monday night passed an ordinance increasing
the tax rate from 80 cents on the 500 to 872,
an increase of y cents. Five cents of the
rate is for a sinking fund, tax never before
levied. Five cents of the levy is for interest
on bonds. FIVE for sinking fund, FIVE for water
and twenty-five and half cents for general
city purposes. A part of the increase has be-
come necessary because nearly half million
of stocks, &C., assessed under the Rew assess
ment law, had to be stricken from he assess

ShipleV Items,

The cutting of corn and the sowing of grain,
rye excepted, is thing of the past. Large
crops of wheat and barley were sown here
this fall. Our farmers boast of good corn
crops, Notwithstanding the havoc of the grub
worm. The potato crop was about the poor
est one for many years. Many of our farm
ers will have to buy what potatoes they use
this year. Those who have plenty of potatoes
and some to spare will have to buy before
spring, if the rot continues. Some of our
farmers are husking out corn, but it is too
green for lofting Those who have been rub
bling their clover erb report the yield to be
reasonably good.
Our new sehoolhouse is about finished and
presents a fair appearance. Our teacher,
Miss NJ f. Polster, and her pupils expect to
occupy it on the 18th instant.
The apple crop in our section was more or
less n failure. The season seemed to he too
dry for maturing the later varieties.

Prohibitionists for Judge Jones.

Reported for the Democratic Advocated
Delegates representing the Prohibitionists
of Anne Arundel, Howard and Carroll coun-
ties met in judicial convention, at 20S North
Calvert street, Baltimore, Nd, Thursday,
October 7th. to nominate a candidate for
Judge of the fifth judicial district, to succeed
Judge l. Thomas Jones, whose term expires
this year.
John W. Kelbaugh, of Anne Arundel coun-
I'ty, was made chairman and Stephen G. Hood,
of Howard county, secretary of the eonven
ton.
Chas r. Woods, of the Baltimore bar, in
troduced the following resolutions which were
unanimously adopted
The Prohibition Party of the Fifth Judicial Dis
trict Of Maryland, consisting of the counties of
Anne Arundel, Carroll and Howard in convention
assembled, hereby adopts the following resolutions
as expressive of the sentiment of its representatives
in regard to the judicial Office to be filled in the
said Judicial District by the people, on the second
day of November next.
Judge should be filled without regard to party po
litcs and that the judiciary should be removed so
far as possible from partisan Influences.
3 That wheneveran occupant of the Bench shall
have served full period of fifteen years with del
ity, ability and GPFightness so as to command the
respect the confidence and esteem of the people
generally independently of their party allegiance,
and is otherwise eligible for reelection, sueh occu
pant should receive the support of all good citizens
without reference to party.
,, That we belive this high standard of service
on the Bench of this district has been fully main
tanned by the Hon. l. Thomas Jones of Howard
county. whose term of fifteen years is about TO ex
pire His long term of public service has been
characterized by great fairness, panstaking and
studious consideration, for the rights of all liti
gants dignity and courtesy in presiding, atiabIty
and corliality with the people, marked judicial
ability and absolute freedom from political or par
tisan participation except to cast his vote as any
other good citizen in discharge of an imperative
patriotic duty
T. That the Prohibition Party not only does not
sacrifice any principle in thus casting its vote for
such q candidate who is not member of its politi
ca organization, but on the contrary emphasizes
at least one of its cardinal tenets to wit that the
public offices and especially those of the Judiciary
should be filled by clean, conscientious and incor
ruptible men, fearless in the discharge of their duty
TO the people.
j. We therefore nomina te Judge /. Thomas Jones,
not as a Prohibitionist, Democrat, nor Republican
but as a faithful public servant of the people and
whose record such entities him to the snffrages
of all good and law abiding citizens.
The following were appointed a committee
to notify Judge Jones of his nomination, viz
Charles A. Read, of Anne Arundel county,
Chas. r. Woods, of Carroll county, and Basil
W. Bowman, of Howard county.
