The New Tome Institute.

Dr.. James G. Mackenzie, the new director
Of the Tome Institute, at Port Deposit, has
nearly completed his plans for the new de-
velopment of the school. He would not de-
tail the plans upon which he has been at.wok
since his connection with the institute, it ts
understood from reliable sources that they
include the virtual creation Of splendid
boarding school for boys, with the largest in
come of any school of this Kind in the United
States. 1t is known that the securities and
property which Jacob Tome gave or be-
oueathed are worth at least four millio0s Of
dollars. OF this munificent sum $l,000,0OO is
to be used in the erection OF the necessary
buildings, leaving IS DOC, 600 to be used for the
maintenance Of the institute. This at six per
cent would reach the sum Of SlS0,O0O per
aupum.
1t is not intended that the free public school
which has been in existence seven years for
children of both sexes shall be interfered
with, but 1t will be maintained as separate
department, with its quarters in. the school
building in the town OF Port Deposit, where it
has been housed since it was begun. Co-edu-
cation will cease with graduation from this
school, as the new boarding school will be
sslely for boys.
The idea of DR.. Mackenzie and the institute
trustees In starting this new school is that
Marylan and the South are ripe for a dis
tnctively strong and rich Southern prepara-
tory school, corresponding to Phillips Exeter,
Phillips Andover. st. Paul's and other noted
boys schools in New England, and TO Law
renceville, in New Jersey. Special efforts will
be made to secure Southern boys for the
school, and for Aarylsn boys there is the ex-
ira iuducement of cheapuess, as the board and
tuition for them will amount to only $500,
while for boys from other States it will be
$500. This, however, is several hundred
dollars cheaper than the usual charges at the
noted schools above named.
1t is also felt by the trustees that the school
| can become important and popular in the
| Middle States, though its chief constituency
will be with Southerners. 1t is pointed cui
| that 1t Is nearer New York than the New Eng
| land schools and far nearer than any noted
| bows school to the cities of Baltimore. Wash
\ ington and Philadelphia. 1t is also claimed tc
i be more convenient and accessible to tht

BROKEN U-A-BRACS.

Mr.. Major, the famous cement man, OF New
York, explains some very interesting facts
about Majors Cement.
The muItitudes who use this standard article
know that it is many hundred per cent. better
than other cements for which similar claims
are made, but a great many do not know why.
The simple reason is that Mr.. Major uses the
best materials ever discovered and other manu-
facturers do not Use them, because they are
Mr.. Major tells us that one of the elements or
his cement costs S3.75 a pound, and another
costs 2.65 gallon, while large share OF the
So called dement's and liquid glue upon the
market are nothing more than siXteen-cent
glue, dissolved in water or ctrc acid, and IN
some cases, altered slightly in color and odor
by the addition of cheap and useless Materials.
Majors cement retails at fifteen cents and
twenty five cents q bottle, and when dealer
tries to sell q substitute you can depend upon
IL that his only object is to make larger pront.
The profit on Majors cement is as much as
any dealer ought to make on any cement. And
dealer gets his share of the benefit of MIR.
Majors advertising, which now amounts to
over So, 900 month, throughout the country.
Established In 1876.
