Delightful Bay Trip.

Last Tuesday afternoon the Ris
ing Sun progressive euchre club,
with a number of friends, enjoyed
d delightful trip down the Bay as
far as Turkey Point. Leaving
Rising Sun about one o'clock the
party drove to Port Deposit and
boarded the "City Belle" which
had been chartered for the occasion.
The boat left the landing shortly
after three O'Clock with a merry
party of As on board and slowly
steamed down the river and into
the Chesapeake bay. Passing the
U. S. fish Matching station the
party went as far as Turkey Point
and returned to the Battery, where
a landing was made for supper.
Through the kindness of those in
charge of the station a long table
and benches were secured and
placed on the lawn, and soon the
welcome call "supper's ready' was
heard. Appetites sharpened by
the breezes made vigorous the
assault upon the heaps of dainties
which finally disappeared before
the attack. After the "inner man"
had been satisfied the party spent
an hour or more strolling around
the grounds, throwing sticks in the
water to see the Chesapeake bay
dogs kept at the station jump in
and bring them ashore, rowing
about in the ponds attached, and
enjoying themselves generally.
About 1880 the boat whistle sound
ed and the trip homeward was
commenced and by the soft light of
the full moon upon the water con-
tentment and happiness supreme
was depicted upon the faces of all.
The getty Belle" steamed to the
wharf at Port shorty after nine and
a pleasant drive home completed
the trip. Those in the party were:
Mr.. and Mrs. B. III. Brown, Mr..
and Mrs. L. c. Dixon, Mr.. and
Mrs. Wayne Reynolds, DR.. and
Mrs. G. S. Dare, DR.. and Mrs. G.

Drowned i'm Conowingo Creek.

On Thursday morning of last
week Immediately after the great
rain storm of the previous night,
which carried away the bridge over
Conowingo creek, near Wakefield
Pa, Miss Bigley was drowned
Her brother, Hess, was driving the
buggy and did not discover the
bridge was gone till the horse
plunged into the stream. A swift
current carried horse, buggy and
it's occupants down the creek. The
horse struck for the shore, and the
rushing torrent swept the inmates
from the carriage. Bigley caught
a wheel of the buggy and endeav-
ored to seize his sister but the cur.
rent swept them apart and the
young lady was borne down stream
and drowned. Miss Bigley was 20
years of age.

September Ladies' Home Journal.

Several striking articles dis
tinguish the September Ladies'
Home Journal, the most prominent
being one by Professor j. H. Gore
about the coronation of Queen Will
helmina, of Holland, which gives a
clear and new idea of her life and
characteristics. "Blind Tom as he
is To-Day" the famous pianist,
supposed by many to be dead, is
photographed and sketched in his
New Jersey home. An insight into
the lives Of the "Covites' of the
Cumberland Mountains is given by
Sarah Barnwell Elliott, and there
is delightfully."- simple scientific
contribution on "Telling the
Weather from the Clouds" A
charming account of Louis Phil
ippe's unsuccessful wooing of a
Philadelphia maiden is given by
William Perrine.
An excellent page of "Pretty
Corners in Girls Rooms," and
others shows "Fifteen Hats With
out Feathers "The Autumn's
Prettiest Waists" and "Children's
Pinafores and School Frocks" are
very good, practical and timely
features. Ideas for a model farm
house are cleverly advanced by W.
L. Price. Mrs. Rorer, in a capital

Thieves Break Through and Steal.

Burglars visited Leslie Wednes-
day night of last week. The safe
at Crothers' lumber yard was blown
open, but nothing of any value
found; two or three stores were
entered and a few goods and lit
tie money taken.
The burglars next visited Sing
erly, where they forced an entrance
into the office of George r. Biles &
Bro, grain and lumber merchants,
and blew open the safe. The noise
made by the explosion aroused the
neighbors, who Immediately started
after the intruders. The robbers
were frightened off without secur-
ing anything and made good their
escape. They left kit of burglars
tools behind them.

A CRITICAL TIME
During the Battle of
Santiago.
Sick or Well, a Rush Night

ago de Cuba were all Heroes
Their Heroic Efforts in Getting
Ammunitions and Rations to the

Front Saved the Day.
P. f. Butler, of pack-train No. 3, writ
ing from Santiago de Cuba, on July 25d,
says: owe all had diarrhoea in more or
less violent form, and when we landed we
had no time to see doctor, for it was a
case of rush and rush night and day to
keep the troops supplied with ammuni-
tons and rations, but thanks to Chamber
lain's Collie, Cholera and Diarrhoea Rem
edy, we were able to keep at work and keep
our health; in fact, sincerely believe
that at one critical time this medicine was
the indirect saviour of our army, for if
the packers had been unable to work
there would have been no way of getting
supplies to the front. There were no
roads that wagon train could use. My
comrade and myself had the good fortune
to lay in a supply of this medicine for
our pack train before we left Tampa, and
know in four cases it absolutely saved
life.''
