Literary News and Notes.

In the July issue of liable Talk" the
tastes and interests of the housekeeper,
the home maker and the hostess, will find
much to assist them. The menus, table
decorations and many of the recipes are
fresh and new, while others, given in re-
ply to inquiries received, must meet the
needs of more than the inquirers, be-
cause so practical. Altogether the lit
tie magazine is of much aid and value to
women who desire to keep up with the
household interests and improvements of
the day, and to get it in condensed form.
Some of the articles are: "Behind the

The Old South Historical Pilgrimage to
the King Philip country has prompted
much new discussion of the early Indian
history Of New England and it's literature.
In the valuable series Of Old South

Progress of the Gospel among the
Indians, written in 1910, and Wheelock's

in Dartmouth COllege), written in 1862.
To these three Indian leaflets are now
added two more-the first giving the
chapters upon the Manners and Customs
of the Indians. from Morton'S famous
New England Canaan, 1857, the other ac-
count of the Beginning and the End of
King Philip War from Hubbard S History
of Philips War, published just at the
close of the war, in 1917. Hubbard was
the best of the three OF four contemporary
histories of the war, and it is a good for
tune to our students and the people to
have these liberal extracts from it placed
in their hands at this time. Both leaflets
are accompanied by full bibliographical
notes; and the numbers which they
bear, 81 and IS, are new reminder of
how large this splendid series of Old
South Leaflets, which for only five cents

many rare historical papers, has already

Death of q Minister,

Rev. John F. Ockermap, a member
of the Baltimore Conference, NJ E.
Church, died early Monday morning
at his home, in Baltimore, aged 81
years. He was graduate of a theo-
logical school at Rainsburg, Pa, and
entered the conference in 1857. He
served Frostburg circuit during the
early years of the war, during which
period he married Miss Margaret,
eldest daughter of the late Judge j.
ID. Armstrong, who survives him.
Later on he filled acceptably many
important stations in the towns and
cities of the large territory within the
conference limits, until two years ago
he asked for the superannuated rela-
ton owing to failing health. When
he left here last summer many of his
friends felt that he had made his last
annual visit, and it was noticeable
that he shook hands with more than
usual favor, itself pathetic prophecy
of the close Of career of devotion to
duty. 1t has come to pass, therefore,
that death has bestowed the blessing
of rest upon laborer whose good
works were too abundant for the
measure Of his strength-works which
remain. however, to glorify his mem

To the MINING JOURNAL.
B. A. Richmond has once more help
ed McComas in his aspirations to
place of honor and. no doubt, to the
qualification of the ambition of his life.
That a seat in the United States Senate
has been McComas' aim is fact we'll
known to all his immediate friends.
Indeed, it has been no secret to any
one since he was elected to his second
term in the House of Representatives
| say "once MORE" because it was Rich
mond who held two of the Allegany
delegates to the republican con
greSslonal convention, in Frederick in
1852, which caused the failure of the
delegates from this county to unite on
an Allegany man and brought about
the nomination of McCOmas and the
defeat of Urner for denomination.
and which laid the foundation for his
four successive elections-an almost
unprecedented honor in this district
Neither party here had for years hon
ored any of its Congressional lncun-
bents with more than two nominations.
That Richmond was his friend then
no one doubts, and as long as Me
Comas followed his advice he was re-
nominated and elected. 1t is fact
that not until Mr.. McComas sought
new friends was he defeated.
70 those who remember these things
and who are watching passing events
can this renewed friendship have due
interest, but it is pleasant to hear the
friends of those bygone days specula-
ting on the future of McComas and
Richmond. "Will our new Senator
ever again break this friendship and
90 back to those who led him to his de-
feat. or is the past enough ~ His own
fate in 1892 and the present fate of
our I. S. Senator, G. l.. Wellington,
ought to be a double warning, and but
few doubt that he will profit thereby.
That Mr.. Welington's mind is being
poisoned against his friends by the
same influence that led McComas away
from the friends of his palmy days is a
fact that none dispute.
That McComas has kindled anew the
friendship Of former years and that
all his friends in the past are with him
again is evidenced by the general eX-
preston of good will expressed for
himself and his friend, Richmond.
The latter, by the way, deserves all the
credit that is being so beautifully be-
slowed upon him, especially by the re-
publicans of Georges Creek, who al
ways honored him for giving them
McComas in 1852. UNo WHO.
