An Unsatisfactory Arrangement.

Mr. S. G. Steele, of London, KY,
the star route mail bidder, who secur-
ed the contract to carry the mail be-
tween Frederick and Boonsboro', via
Middletown, from July next, for the
sum of S243, was in Middletown last
Saturday aud Sunday, says The Regis
ter. He came to sublet the route. He
made contract, it is said, with Will
Cookery, a young man of this place,
to carry the mail between Middletown
and Frederick, twice day, for $40
month, Cookery to travel by the cleo
trio road. Mr. Steele is to pay his car
fare, and stand good for all delays, and
the cost of buggy hire in case of delay
on the railroad. The citizens of the
town are practically unanimous in
their opposition to any change being
made in the manner of carrying the
mail, believing that no better service
can be secured than the old way of
carrying it by horse and wagon over
the pike, as delays are bound TO occur
otherwise.

Want a Telephone Service.

Says the Clarion: While other sec
tons of the State, notably Carroll and
the southern portion of Frederick Coun-
ty, possesses exceptional telephone ia
cilities, this county north of Frederick
lacks it. 1t is of great service to COM
munities to be linked together thus
and if it is profitable to operate lines
anywhere, it seems to us that a line
passing through Walkersville, Woods
boro', Utica, Creagerstown, Logs,
Rocky Ridge, Graceham, Motter's, Mt.
st. Mary's and Emmitsburg, connect
ing them with Frederick City, should
enjoy profitable patronage. The rates
are now well within the reach of the
public, viz, SIS for private house; $25
for public offices. AT these rates Thur
mont and Emmitsburg alone ought to
be good for twenty or twenty-five sub
scribers, if able to reach all the points
named above. May we not hope for it
this year?

Mr.. Gambrill, the Well Known
Miller, Files Deed of Trust

Our readers will learn with exceed
ing regret of the business embarrass-
ment of Mr.. James II. Gambrill, the
well known miller of this city. His
assets are placed at $S0,000 and his liza
bilities 100000. Inability to realize
money on collections is the reason
given.
This is too often, unfortunately, the
cause of business failures, and it seems
strange that with assets that Overhaul
ance liabilities by $50, 900, a man should
be unable to make ends meet. But
such is the case in this instance and
Mr.. Gambrill has filed deed of trust
for the benefit of his creditors. Messrs.
Ross, Newman and Robert G. Gam
brill have been appointed trustees. The
large steam mill on Carroll street, en-
ploying number of hands, has shut
down for the present. We express the
hope that Mr.. Gambrill's affairs may
be speedily straighteued out to the sat
isfaction of all concerned, and that the
deeply regretted difficulty may be
only temporary

March II, 1897.
A delightful pound party was held
at the residence of Mr.. George Doub.
a few miles south of town, on Friday
evening, March II. About ninety
young persons were present and. en-
gagged in games and dancing until
about midnight, when refreshments
were served. A lot of our folks went
to the party in four-hourse jolt wag-
on filled with straw. During the
evening an incident occurred which
nearly broke up the party. While
those who had been dancing were alb
sent from the room, some mean per-
son threw red pepper on the floor.
When the dan GERS returned they soon
began coughing and sneezing aud had
to leave the room. A great deal of in
dignation was aroused by the BASTARD
ly act, and the blame rests upon GER
tain persons, who are strongly preiu-
diced against dancing.
Rev. l.. Mann, of Mercersburg, Pa,
was in town Tuesday.

Thursday afternoon, March II, Mr..
Joseph Reeder, of New Baltimore.

nately did not prove serious. While
descending the hill at the west end of
town his horse stumbled and fell,
throwing Mr.. Reeder and his wife
headlOng out of the wagon They
received good shaking up, but were
otherwise uninjured.
The Everhart's Literary Society, of
near town, held a very interesting
debate and meeting on Tuesday even
ing, March II. The weather was clear
and the school house was full of spec
tators. A very interesting program
was rendered, after which came the
debate: Resolved, "That the right of
suffrage should depend upon educa-
tional qualifications" which was dis
cussed in the affirmative by Russell
Alexander and Alvey Beachley, and
in the negative by Mcclure HaupU and
j. Frank Butts. The discussion of the
question was very interesting to those
present, and was decided in the affim-
alive by the judges. The committee
on questions offered: Resolved, "That
the Government should own the rail-
road and telegraph lines" which was
decided upon for debate at the next
meeting.

Horses and Bicycles.

Bicyclists should use reasonable care
when on the road to avoid frightening
timid horses. Drivers and riders
should also use some Judgment in this
matter and not expect the cyclist to do
it all. When driving or riding timid
animal, due notice of this fact should
be given to approaching cyclists by u
gesture of the arm or some other
equally expressive way. Thus notified
the wheelman should dismount at
once and give the fractions team the
right of way. Owners of horses should
endeavor to accustom them to the BIZ
cycle, as hardly any road in the coun-
try can be travelled without meeting
one or several Of them. 1t is q great
risk to drive young horse on the
road under the best of conditions, but
the danger is considerably increased
when the animal frightens at the sight
of cyclist.

A New Telephone Line.

Says the Valley Register: The Inter-
State Telephone Companyis extending
its line to Middletown and poles are
now being erected on Main street. The
main line runs from Frederick to N.Y.
ersville, across the mountain via Har-
mony, north of town, and the line to
Middletown is a branch off from this
The line enters Middletown via the
Harmony road. This now makes three
companies that have poles erected on
Main street, and on the south side of
the street, because of the absence of
trees there. They are the Western
Union Telegraph Co., the Chesapeake
d Potomac Telephone Co., and the In
terstate Co.

The dyspeptic carries dreadful load
on his back. 1t seems as if he were
really made up of two men. One of
them ambitious, braIny aud energetic;
the other sick, listess, peevish and
without force. The weak man weighs
the other one down. The dypeptic may
be able to do pretty good work one
day, and the next day because of
some little indiscretion in eating, he
may be able to do nothing at all. Most
cases of dyspepsia start with constipa-
ton. Constipation is the cause of nine
tenths of all human sickness. Some
of its symptoms are sick and bilious
headache, dizziness, sour stomach, loss
of appetite, foul breath, windy belch-
ings, heartburn, pain and distress af-
ter eating. All these are indicative of
arrangement of the liver, stomach and
bowels, and all are caused by constipa-
ton. DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are
the quickest, easiest and most certain
cure for this condition. They are not
violent in action.
