baltimore a. OHIO.

From time to time articles appear
in various papers about the so-called
"Hill control of Baltimore & Ohio,
together with exhaustive details of
various struggles which are supposed
to be in progress between Mr.. Hill
and other people in the Baltimore &
Ohio board. The details of these strug-
giles are very interesting, but are open
to the criticism that they have no ex-
istence in fact. The plain facts Of the
matter are, first that Mr.. Hill does not
control Baltimore & Ohio, nor has he
at any time expressed any desire or
taken any steps in that direction;
second, that there has ct no time been
any differences of opinion between Mr..
Hill and the Baltimore & Ohio people
with regard to selection Of general
manager, the selection of Mr. Under
wood being satisfactory to everybody;
and third, that the delay in regard to
Mr. Underwood's acceptance of the
general managership of Baltimore G.
Ohio was due to matters connected
with the 500 Line more than anything
else.
1t Is pretty we'll understood here
that Mr.. Hill was invited to interest
himself in Baltimore & Ohio, on the
theory that he could be Of great SER
vice to the property as an adviser and
to this end he, with some of his
friends, purchased a substantial inter-
est in the preferred stock of the
company. This interest is nowhere
near a controlling interest, but is still
very large. 1t may be said without
fear of contradiction, that there is en-
tire harmony in Baltimore & Ohio
circles from top. to bottom.

his stay in Wiltshire one summer he
met little Dorothy Drew. Mr.. Glad

fond Of children. took her in the
grounds and told her stories. After n
time Mrs. Drew, fearing that Mr.. Kip
ling must be tired of the child, called
her, and said: 'Now, Dorothy, 1 hope
you have not been wearying Mr.. Kip

New Discoveries at Hampton Court.

Hampton Court Palace is constantly
yielding up hidden treasures of artistic
and antiquarian interest and consider
ing the wonderful intricacicS OF VOL.
scy's huge chateau it is not surprising
that every now and again finds of
great historical value are brought to
light. Some time ago the great Cardi-
nails private room was disclosed TO
public view, and now comes the an
nouncemcnt OF an extraordinary dis
covery of what may prove TO be an az
tiStic treasure. \ large number of the
pictures there are in course OF removal.
Underneath the canvas and paper with
which the walls were covered was
what appeared to be painting.
Subsequent careful examination
showed that three sides of n room,
which measures Al feet by 81 feet, were
adorned with very fine paintings, in a
very fair state Of preservation, but dis
figured by hundreds of holes caused by
the nails which had been driven into
the walls to hang the pictures. The
ceiling of this apartment il painted by
Ncrrio, and represents Queen Anne in
the character of Justice. Whether the
paintings on the walls are by the same
artist has not transpred, but it is prob.
able that they are. 1t has been decided
to fill up the holes with suitable mate
rial and to engage the services of Il
well-known artist to repair the paint
ings and as far as possible to restore
them to their original conditiOn.-Lon-

A LIVELY SPRING.

Since the fire on Fore street last week
water has been running continuously in
to the telephone conduit near. 1t was at
first thought that the water came from
the Thomas building which was burned,
but after two days of pumping the con-
duit seemed to be as full as ever, and 1t
was decided that the water camo from
some other source. Mr.. William II.
Willard, the agent for the Thomas
property. said that he had been told that
Iasuy years ago there was fine spring in
the orchard of old Deacon MIX whose
farm was situated in that neigh borhood.
When the farm was cut up into lots and
houses were built the water from the
spring was used in some of them. OF
late years, however, 1t has been lost sight
of and nobody seems to know what finally
became of il.

THE mlLKMeN
In Trouble with seaisr ofweishts and
Measures,

The sealer Of weights and measures
claims that many OF the milkmen who do
business In town have not had their meas
ures inspected and scaled for a number of
years while the law requires this to be
done once year. He also advocates that
all milkmen should change over to the
standard or what is called the "broad"
quart measure The sealer OF weights and
measures also holds that inasmuch as
many dealers are now selling by the quart
or pint bottle. each one of thess bottles
should be inspected and sealed and some
standard bottle adopted. The sealing OF
all milk cans Is another matter that the
sealsr thinks is required by the law.
The milkmen think that things are ell
right rs they are and that II their
customers are not complaining of short
measure or poor milk no one else should.
They declare that this activity on the part
of the official Is stimulated by the fact
that his revenue. which is made up from
fees for sealing weights and measures, are
dropping of aud he now desires to IN
crease them.
