Farmers Clubs.

A joint meeting of the PatuXent Plan
ters' club and the Evansville Farmers club
was held on Wednesday, at Stratford, the
home farm of DR.. Richard s. Hill. The
committee of inspection, consisting of
Mr.. l.. NJ Bacon, President of the Senior
Gunpowper Club, of Baltimore county.
Mr.. S. Powell, President of the Evansville
club, and MIR. Amoss, member of the
Fallston Club, of Hartford county, accom-
panied by the members of the clubs and
several guests made thorough inspection
of DR.. Hills farm. Their report was very
commendatory of the Doctors system and
management, he being one of the first in
this vicinity to abandon the old system, by
varying his agricultural products, and be-
sides feeding and raising cattle.
The clubs and guests then were driven
to the Club House of the Patuxent Rod
and Gun Club, where most sumptuous
dinner was served, the "piece de resis-
lance" being planked shad. Those pres
ent there witnessed, many for the first
shad bake, and with appetites whetted by
the sight, showed most appreciately their
enjoyment Of the Doctors hospitality.
The business meeting of the two clubs
were then held, President Powell, of the
Evansville club presiding, and addresses
were made by Mr.. Dolfeld, of Baltimore
county, upon the subject of good roads;
Mr. Bacon, of Baltimore county, upon
Farmers Markets; Senator Clagett, upon
the new tobacco inspection law; Mr.. Amoss
upon FarUers' Institutes, and Mr. F.
Snowden Hill, upon the union of farmers
to forward they interests.
The clubs then adjourned, the visitors
one and all acknowledging that Prince
Georges county is the garden spot of Ma
ryland and that Marlboro district is the
richest little patch in that beautiful gar
den
Among those present were Mr.. George
| o. Brown, the agricultural editor of the
Baltimore Sun, Mr. Louis NJ Bacon, Pres
ident of the Senior GunEowder Club, OF

Tobacco Growers and Buyers.

The meeting held here yesterday of the
growers and buyers oftobacco was graft
flying success. 1t was we'll attended by
the planters of the county and the adj
Dire ses of the buyers were instructive and
interesting.
| The point dwet upon principally was
that of the shipments of tobacco. Efforts
were made to impress upon the entire
planting population the fact that they are
injuring their own business by carccssncSs
or negligence. Conditions have now
arisen, it is claimed. in which the utmost
attention must be paid to Il proper assort-
| ment in packing, or else the farmers must
and will sustain continued financial loss
| The day has passed when the seller of
| tobacco will accept hogsheads of the leaf
| without first carefully examining the char
| acter of its contents. Every package
which passes through his hands is always
scrutinized with the utmost minutencss,
and, according to the grade of the goods,
so will be the price it will bring. 1t is use
less, therefore, for planters to think, even
for moment, that they can mix goods
with the upper and lower layers of better
stock, hoping that the entire hogshead
will thereby pass as of the best quality,
despite the fact that there is Il preponder
ance of Indifferent stuff. On the contrary,
the value of the better grade tobacco is
always lost by being mixed with tobaccos
of an inferior grade.
1t is this very truth which the Baltimore
delegation tried to impress upon the
Prince Georges planters, disclosing to
them how vastly they will increase their
profits by paying due regard to proper
packing and shipping. They showed that
while inferior tobacco mixed with better
grades will destroy the malket value of
the latter. 1t was shown that if planters
will assert their tobacco according to
grades, will pack each according to its as
sorted grade, will thus ship the best packed
to itself, while the second and inferior
grades are likewise separated, that the net
proceeds of the entire stock will far eX-
coed what the present methods bring,

The readers of this paper will be pleas
ed to learn there is at least one dreaded
disease that science has been able to cure
in all its stages and that is Catarrh Halls
Catarrh Cure is the only positive cure
now know to the medical fraternity.
Catarrh being constitutional disease,
requires constitutional treatment. Hall S
Catarrh Cure is taken internally, acting
directly upon the blood and mucous sur
faces of the system, thereby destroying
the foundation of the disease, and giving
the patient strength by building up the
constitution and assisting nature in doing
its work The proprietors have so much
faith in its CURATIVE powers, that they offer

Faith lends its realizing light,
The clouds disperse, the shadows fly,
Tn Invisible appears in sight,
And God is seen by mortal eve
The New Catholic Church.

ST. Mary's Catholic Church, around
which 50 many memories both of gladness
and sorrow cling, will in a short time be
taken down to make way for new and,
in every respect, more improved building.
The old Church has been associated with
so many generations of our people, that
its demolition will cause feelings of keen
regret. From its altar, words of piety
and warning have been heard by ears now
deaf to lifes turmoils, from its portals
happy brides have passed to join i'll life
battles, and through its crepe draped
doors have been carried the forms of
loved ones, whose voices are forever hush
ed in deaths long sleep. Many of the
priests, whose holy missions were Jealous
ly executed here, whose memories are still
dear, have passed to their reward, others
have gone to wider fields of labor, carry
ing with them the prayers of those for
whose good they labored so faithfully.
The new Church will be modern in dc
tails, commodous and imposing. The
contract will be given out in i few days.
In style it will be Gothic, having frontage
of 60 feet, on the right front of which will
be a tower rising So feet in which will be
hung bell weighing 900 pounds, cast
by McShane & Co, of Baltimore. The
depth of the Church will be 1l9 feet, a
| cross six feet high Will surmount the roof
| in the trent, from the ground to top OF
| have break in it, and 81 stained glass
windows will be put in the boiy OF the
| Church will have II large windows on
| each side behind the altar II stained glass
| window will be placed. while above the
front entrance Il very large stained glass
window, thanked by two smaller ones will
make an imposing front. The building
| will be of brick, trimmed with Hummells-
| town brown stone, the cement between
the bricks will be penciled in black; the
seating capacity of the building will he
| for 500. There are two Sacrlsty rooms
12X16 feet one on each side of the altar.
be for the organ and choir. The roof is
to be supported by y ornamental iron
pillars from the floor of the Church. there
will be il basement large enough for two
furnaces The affairs and interior furnish
ings of the Church have not been decid-
ed on, the railing in front of the altar will
correspond in finish to the pews.
The nucleus from which funds nearly
sufficient to build the new Church was
made up of requests by Mrs Eliza Graham
Miss Agnes and Miss Anne Hill, former
members of the congregation whose wishes
in life, when carried out will result in a Wis
IDLE testimonial to their pious generosity
To Father Trinkhaus, the present pas
tor of the Church, all credit is due FOL
the untrng energy he has displayed il
his efforts to make the hoped for result 3;
reality This is the first held of his priest
" vocation; he is only twenty-fou year
old, but has already shown qualities anC
talents of high order. His furture VI
trust, will be one full of justly mcritet
rewards i'll his Holy ministration.-

The new law regulating the granting Of
State and other licenses by the Clerks OF
the Circuit Courts provides as follows:
The Clerks shall grant to every person
who shall apply for same such license as
he may desire and be authorized to obtain,
properly filled up and signed by them,
but they are expressly forbidden to ante
date any license or issue to any person or
persons any license other than in the
month of which the same is legally obtain
able, under penalty of $50 for each and
every offense, said penalty to be recovered
by an action at law upon his official bond"
Every Clerk shall lay before every
grand jury attending his court list of all
licenses granted by him for two years prior
to the meeting of such grand jury, setting
forth in full the names of the Parties
licensed, the date of issue, the amount OF
capital stock, if any, the expiration and
the value of such licenses" under penalty
as above.
1t is stated that great many merchants
neglect to secure licenses promptly on or
before May 1st, and all such would be
liable to Indictment for this neglect if the
grand juries should strictly enforce the
law where lapses should be discovered.
The law is, therefore, interesting to the
merchants as well rs the clerks of the diff
ferent courts.
