Condition of the Crops.

Late corn has passed through
a trying ordeal in all the dis
tricts, and it is likely that the
promising outlook for a good
yield has been seriously impaired.
In fact, late corn has suffered
during this week very much as
early corn did during the July
drought. Both the early and
late crops show a curled leaf and
spindling stock, and it is thought
that the ears are not filling we'll.
The rains, Sunday, helped the sit
uatiOn, but even with the addi-
tional moisture short yields are
the best that can be hoped for.
Pastures are brown and sparse.
and live stock is losing weight;
on some farms cows and horses
are being fed on prOvender.
Timothy sown with wheat last
fall has been entirely burnt out
in some localities, and the fields
will be plowed this season and
reset. The cloverseed crop will
be short. Crimson clover has
been sown during the week, but
the heat is against good stands,
and that which came up earlier
is thought to have been killed.
Buckwheat is showing bloom in
portions of Garrett County; the
crop has been hurt by the
drought, but not seriously as yet.

ENDED IN DEATH.
Sad Wind-up to the Festivities
of Emancipation Day-Col.
ored Girl Struck by an En-
CINE and Killed.

The Emancipation Day celebra
ton ended very disasterously for
Harriet Stanley, a young cOlored
woman who lived on East street,
this city. She and her sister, in
company with several others of
her race, were at the station to
say goodbye to friends who left
on the Pennsylvania special for
Baltimore at midnight last Thurs
day, the 9th inst, when, upon
persuasion, they got on the steps
of the moving train, intending to
get off at Second or Third street.
The train, however, was going too
fast and they had to ride as far
as Walkersville before it came to
stop. Here they dismounted
and started to walk home on the
railroad track. In the meantime
the special had reached Bruce
vile, changed engines and the
other started on the run hack to
this city. AT Harmony Grove it
came upon the two women on the
track and as the older tried to
cross to get with her sister, the
engine struck her. Her sister,
thinking she was dead, hurried to
town and told the sad news.
The crew knew nothing of the
accident and had retired to their
homes. They were aroused and,
taking a baggage car, hurried to
the spot where the girl was found
still alive. They reached town
just few moments before she ex-
PRED. Dir. Ira j. McCurdy, the
company's physician, was on hand
but could do nothing to relieve
her. The examination showed
that the left leg was broken, the
right shoulder dislocated and
smashed and a number of scars
and bruises about the body.
a jury Of inquest was summon
ed by Magistrate Eckstein, which,
after hearing the evidence, ex-
Onerated the company from any
blame. The funeral expenses were
paid by the railroad company.

Bryan Will Garry Maryland,

The Philadelphia Records cor.
respondent in Baltimore sent the
following to his paper Sunday:
Bryan's speech at Indianapolis
has gained him many friends in
Maryland. His declaration that,
ihaugurated President, his first
act will be to call upon Congress
to take action concerning the
Philippines has brought over to
his support the Baltimore Sum,
the leading Democratic newspaper
of the State, and many of those
influential Democrats who four
years ago opposed him. The now
friendly attitude of the Baltimore
San and of every Democratic
newspaper in the State, without
single exception, has greatly
encouraged Chairman Vandiver,
Of the State Committee. They
believe thousands of the former
boilers from the party will return.
If careful registration through
out the State and close attention
to every campaign detail assure
success, Bryan will carry Mary.
land. Chairman Vandiver is pur.
suing the same thorough tactics
that resulted in the State election
last year.

Fix up the Streets Along the
Trolley Tracks.

1t would not be a bad idea for
the Frederick and Middletown
Electric Railroad Company to
spend some of their income in
keeping the streets on the inside
and outside of their tracks in
perfect order. Such a clause Ger
tainly was in their franchise when
the city gave permission to use
Patrick street, one of our largest
and busiest thorOughfares. Now
the streets are terrible to ride
over either with buggy or other
vehicle. On the inside and out.
side of each rail are depressions
and inequalities in the surface
whichmakes riding over it not only
unpleasant but dangerous. Acct.
dents are liable to happen at any
time. The city authorities should
look into this matter at once and
see that the rights of the public
and municipality are not trans.
crossed.

The United Brethren SUNDAY
School picnic was a grand sue.
cess last Saturday, and many say
that the crowd was about as
large as that usually seen at the
Lutheran Sunday Schools picnic.
The Catoctin Band did excellently
and won praise from all sides.
Short addresses were made by
Revs. RoudabuSh, Lowell and
Professor G. Frank Flock. The
picnic gave such perfect satisfac.
ton that they decided to make
it an annual event in the future
and announced their intention
to ho.l their picnic on the sec.
ond Saturday in August, 1901.
AS this occurs just the week be.
fore the annual date for the Lu-
theran picnic, we may look for
shot timen in the schools about
that time.
j. Il. Phleeger, of Feagaville,
is canvaSSing this community in
the interest of some nursery firm.
George Barkdell's new resi-,
dence is being rapidly completed
as is also Albert FahrSt's.
The springs and creeks are get.
ting very low and many farmers
scarcely have sufficient water for
their stock.
Mrs. A. j. Smith and sou are
spending the week at J. b. Har-
gets, near Wilson, along the
COnOcocheague.
Among our recent visitors we
noticed Miss Carrie Glenn, Mrs.
f. G. HOaver, VIM. Osborne and
family, Miss Calmeda Branden-
burg, Hagerstown; Miss Nettie
Magruder, Harry Blickenstaf,
Roy Brandenburg, Chewsville;
G. A. Smith and wife, Smiths
burg; Samuel Pryor, Waynesboro;

Sallie English, Utica; G. P.
Marker and George Davis, Sabil,

more; Mr.. Darlington and wife,
