sShrimps," tell US where you get this

Recently Miss Ethel Barwick cf near
Church Hill, Queen Annes county, was seri
ously injured while attempting to hypnotlze
a savage bull belonging to her father. The
following account is given in tn Centreville
O6serper:
1.-THE young woman some months ago re-
ceived lessons in the science OF hypnotism,
and since that time has succeeded in placing
number Of persons under hypnotic control.
Yesterday she entered pasture in which a
savage bull was confined, thinking to hyp-
notize the animal. She had advanced but a
few yards from the fence, when the animal,
believing with rage, charged upon her.
"The terror stricken girl fled for the fence,
but before 1t was reached she was lifted upon
the animals horns and hurled senseless over
the fence. Physicians state that her recov-
cry is doubtful, for, besides sustaining inter
nal injuries, a jagged wound was torn IN her
right hip"

Fine New Pavement.


Mr.. NJ. ]. Albaugh has put down pave
ment In front of his East Main.st residence,
replacing tlagstones, that we trust will sound
the death knell of every one ofthese homely,
ankle twisting out t.of.dates In our town.
Mr.. Albaugh says the cost is no more than,
If as much as, that Of good brick: he claims
that if properly put down it will outlast two
brick pavements and as to appearance, 1t
excels the best of brick.
He excavated to the depth OF fifteen inches
then filed in about eleven inches of ash-pan
cinders (broken stone will serve as good or
better purpose) on top of this is three inches
of gravel, sand and cement all tamped solidly
down: this IS finished with one inch dressing
of sand and cement, well trowelled and laid
of into sections by cutting through the inch
of top finish, separating it about one eighth
of an inch.
As a number of pavements are now aw wait-
ing repair or renewal, we suggest that Mr..
Albaugh be interviewed and his pavement
adopted. Were our sidewalks all to be made
of this pattern it would meet the one crying
want of the town, for while our buildings
are kept In the best of repair and we'll
painted, our pavements are very, very bad |.

belle we'd Judge Gof would do much of his

for hearing at Cumberland from other dis.

What constitutes valid prescriptive title

involved In suit brought in New York. A
passenger placed his valse on seat and
stepped out to buy paper. When he re-
turned another man had removed the valise
and Jumped bis claim. The valise owner
forcibly evicted the jumper and the latter
sues for damages.
Railroad companies recognize the custom
of stalking out seat claims with hand baggage
and provide no other method Of establishing
the right to seat, except in parlor cars, and
therefore, should assume the duty ofprotect-
Ing passengers In their rights. 1t is doubtful
If the passenger has legal right to evict a
trespasser forclbly, but the tralnmen have
the right, because the custom of indicating
prior occupancy by depositing baggage is
practically adopted as a rule OF the railway
companies,
Assignment of seats by trainmen would
prevent disputes and reform several annoy
ing evils Of railway travel, including the pre-.
emption of more than one seat by the selfish
