Disastrous Storms in Maryland.

SANDY SPRING, June 9-One of the
severest thunderstorms ever known to pass
oyerMontgomery county occurred this after
nooa, and was accompanied by high wind and
a very heavy rainfall At Spencerville it
was exceptionally severe, and one man was
struck in the chest by lightning and killed.
aud his two companions badly shocked
Burt Black. Base Dorsey and Richard
Thomas the two latter colored men, were
engaged by Charles Ousler to pick straw
berries, As the storm approached, these
men sought shelter from the rain under a
crate shed built in the field. Jeddie
Yerkes, a young man who was engaged in
Grating the berries, refused to remain in
this building, and drove to the house of
Mr. Ousler, a short distance off. After
the storm had abated, Yerkes heard some
one calling, and he and Mr. Ousler drove
to the field, finding Dorsey dead, Thomas
lying outside the shed unconscious, and
Black badly stunned but able to make the
faint calls which Gerkes heard Black and
Thomas are now out of danger, but the
latter life was despaired of several hours.
The fact that he fell outside in the rain no
doubt saved his life. Dorsey was about
% years Of age. At Brookeville num-
Der of trees were uprooted, and consider
able hail fell, doing little if any damage
At Rockland, the home of Henry c. Hal
lowell, a tree was blown on the house,
damaging it considerably.
At Brighton and Unity severe hail
storm prevailed The hailstones measured
in some instances six and one-half inches
in circumference Wheat and corn were
badly damaged in the section where the
storm was, causing a totallo to some and
damaging all crops in its course to a great
extent. At Brighton lightning killed
steer for Isaac Hartshorne, and number
of trees were struck near many residences.

real estate can, by constant effort, only
make living. Yet too many of them

he was much like another farmer, who

the gold standard is best, and he ought
to know" Mr. s. was a banker,
and held mortgages against the farmer
for probably all that he was worth. 1t
is passing strange that these same
men, when they go to a merchant in
their own town, will not believe him,
but think he is laying for them, and
is making large profits upon every
thing he sells, when in reality it takes

Mark Hanna on Spies.
Beardstown, Ill.

From the Chicago Chronicle: 1--WE
commend the president for the judi
cicus notifications of the civil service
rules recently promulgated" says Mark
Hanna in his Ohio platform. In an
interview for publication Mr.. Hanna
stands by the platform and the order.
He attempts to justify the latter by
saying that when President Cleveland
was about to go out he issued an order
which had the effect to give permanent
jobs to lot of Democrats in positions
where they could act as "spies" upon
the Republican administration. He
says that the present Republican ad-
ministration is responsible to the peo-
pie for its conduct of public affairs,
and 1t cannot justly be held RESPONSE
Bile II 1t is surrounded by Democratic
spies.' Therefore the president is to
be commended for his "judicious" or
der. OF course Mr. Hanna does not
expect any intelligent man to accept
this statement as a sufficient justifi
cation for turning over 10000 places
"A
administration has no business to have
secrets in any branches of the service
affected by this order. If there is
any use for the services of spies then
it is because something is wrong which
ought to be exposed If anything is
wrong the presence of men in the SER
vice who will expose it is for the pub
lie good. Mr.. Hanna's talk about spies
implies that things are done which
ought not to be done. 1t implies that
there are things which the party bosses
wish to keep secret when there should
be no secrets and everything should
be open to the public 1t implies
purpose on the part of the Republican
bosses to convert the public service
into a party machine-to pervert and
degrade 1t to the accomplishment of
merely party ends. Spying which will
tend to prevent such degradations Of
the public service is a very desirable
thing. But Mr.. Hanna and his fell
low-bosses are not worried about spies.
We hear nothing about spies in the
British civil service, where the merit
system is more extended and more rig
orously applied than it ever has been
here. The simple truth is that the
spoilsmen want the spoils, and their
talk about spies is the best excuse they
can think of for seizing what they
want.

Recipes.

Gooseberry Fool--Put a quart of
green gooseberries into a deep baking
dish, and when quite soft rub them
through colander and add sugar to
taste. When cold add one-half cup
full of cream and serve.
Strawberry Meringue - Beat five
eggs with one cupful of sugar, add
ing one-quarter pound of slightly
warmed butter and one cupful Of
milk. Mix one teaspoonful of baking
powder with three cupfuls of -four,
then sift into the first mixture, and
stir until smooth. Turn into shall
low baking-pan and bake. Cover with
layer of ripe strawberries and then
a layer Of meringue, and bake for a
moment more.
Scalloped Tomatoes-Season one
quart of tomatoes with salt and pepper
to. taste, one-half cup of sugar and q
few drops of onion juice. Butter a
deep baking dish and sprinkle over it
layer of bread crumbs and put in q
layer of tomatoes. Dot with bits of
butter; then bread crumbs, tomatoes,
and so on until the dish is full, having
the bread crumbs on top. Moisten
with sweet cream and bake in a

The time has arrived to hasten away
to the woods with baskets and rods,
shawls and sunshades. The day will
be the more enjoyable if the lunch is
properly put up and prepared. First
provide yourself with oiled paper,
some jelly tumblers with airtight tops,
wooden plates, Japanese napkins and
few empty tin boxes. Then go to
work, forbidding any one to bother or
Jump around with teasing remarks.
The coffee can be boiled, strained
and put into an alright jar. 1t will
be easy to heat it, and it will taste
well enough to a hungry party.
Lemonade can be made when needed
from syrup of juice and sugar, a
tablespoonful to tumblerful of water,
for, OF course, you must settle near q
spring. The ice can be wrapped in a
bit of flannel and carried in tin box.
Butter and cream will keep, if in
tumblers, next to the ice. Mayon-
naise dressing can also be taken in an
alright tumbler. The lobster, CHECKER
crab or salmon can be cut up, all
ready to mix, when needed. The let.
tuce, as soon as one arrives at the
spot where the lunch is to be, should
be put into a pan of water and set in
the shade. The bread for the sand
wiches ought to be cut very thin and
the filling chopped fine, to be mixed
with seasoning or dressing.
Sandwiches keep better if not
spread until just before use, although
if haste is needful they can be filled
at home and carefully packed in oiled
paper, one at time. If something
hot is called for fryingpan and some
eggs can be taken along. With jar
of tomatoes, stewed and strained and
seasoned with bit of bacon, an onion
and some mushrooms, Spanish
omelette can be made few minutes.
Or spaghetti can be cooked with but
little trouble. Wash the pieces in
running water, drain and parboil, then
add to broth made of beef extract
or capsules, and when all is absorbed
and the strips are tender, sprinkle
over grated Parmesan cheese and
serve with salt and pepper at once.
Fruit can be taken along or bought
on the way. Anything but the regu.
lation slabsided sandwiches, hard
boiled eggs and messy preserves will
be appreciated. Just because people
are huugryis no reason why they must
be stuffed with hackneyed and indigest
ible things. New York Herald

Absurd is the contention that the
gold dollar is an honest one because
the gold which it contains is just as
valuable before coinage as afterward.
This is, in fact, another phase of the
same thought. The equality referred
to is produced by law. If a man have
lump of gold of proper fineness, the
law provides that he may take it to the
mint and have it coined into money
without expense and without delay.
Hence they are practically the same
thing. Exactly the same result would
stance similarly treated. Suppose the
government stood ready to grind into
flour, with no charge or loss of time,
all the wheat that might be offered for
the purpose. Manifestly a bushel of
wheat would be worth just as much as
the flour that it would take the -four
bake it into bread and hand back the
bread to the owner of the flour with
no charge whatever, then this result
would follow: The bushel of wheat
would be worth all the -four it would
make; the flour would be worth all the
bread 1t would make, and consequently
the wheat, the -four and the bread
would all be of equal value. But it
! would be the law, and nothing else,
that would make them So The price
or gold stated in dollars and cents is
merely the price fixed by law, or the
mint rate. Properly speaking, it is not
price at ALL 1t signifies nothing
more than that certain weight of the
metal will be manufactured into GER
tain amount of coin. That is to say,
the government will take 1922 grains
, OF gold, mix 25.S of alloy with it, fash
Ion it into piece of certain shape,
stamp emblems or designs upon it, and
call it an eagle" or ten dollars. Orig
inally the eagle contained 2471s grains
OF pure gold. Now it contains 1922
grains. When the former weight pre-
vailed dollars worth of gold was
24A grains. Now it is 1922 grains.
What has happened to the gold? Moth
ing. The law has been changed. That
is all.

Experiments recently performed give

or a large number Of persons tested
few could distinguish, when their eyes
were covered and their noses closed
between weak solutions of tea, coffee
and quinine, and even those who were
most successful made frequent and
ludicrous mistakes. Still great Difficult
ty was found in discrimination by
means of the unaided tongue between
meats as unlike as pork and turkey
especially when the meat was first
finely divided. The experiments indi-
Gated that there are at most only four
real taste sensations, namely, sour,
sweet, bitter and salt, and it is doubt
full If there are more than two-sweet
and bitter This may suggest to folks
of frugal mind that lot of money
might be saved by going to table blind
fold and with nose put temporarily out
of commission. One could then call
viands and liquids whatever one chose,
and tradesmen's bills could be mate
rally reduced by the employment OF
q judicious imagination. In the course
of the said tests woman of great re-
pute as a cook said raw potatoes
chopped we're acorns, roast pork she
called boiled beef, raw turnip chopped
she called cabbage sweetened, raw ap-
pie was grape juice, roast turkey was
called beef, and horse radish she said
was something she had never tasted.
