For a General horticultural Exhibition
"A meeting was held in Baltimore on Fri
day, August 31st to consider the steps neces
sary for the organization Of a General Horti
| cultural Exhibition" which it is proposed
shall be held next year in Baltimore. Mr.
John Cook was elected temporary chairman
and Mr.. Theodore Eckardt, secretary. Tive
special committees have been appointed Il
study the matter under consideration and will
make their report to second meeting which
| will be held on September 18th. The frs
committee is to study the technical features
of the exhibition, the selection OF the ground
the plan and progress of the show, the pre-
MUM list, the expenses, etc. Messrs. Edw. A
Seidowitz, Isaac H. Moss, Charles L. Sey bold
ard Theodore Eckardt are serving on this com
mittee The other committee will have tC
study the possibility of organizing a perma
nent horticultural Society,"" or of revivine
the Maryland Horticultural Society"
Messrs. John Cook and w. Paul Binder were
appointed, and Mr.. VIM. B. Sands, who wa:
not present at the meeting. will be asked to
serve on this committee. Both Messrs. Cook
and Sands have been very active members Of
the old Maryland Horticultural Society, and il
all the surviving members to support its re-
organization.
very enthusiastic and the attendant circum-
stances certainly augur well for the consum-
nation of the project.
A number of influential Baltimoreans have
been approached privately and it is the uni
versal sentiment that the project of the show,
as well as the revival of the Horticultural So
ciety, will meet with general approval and
substantial assistance.
The Electric Park has been proposed as the
most favorable place to hold this show. 1t has
many advantages. The 20 acres of ground
and the large Casino building could accommo-
date goodly number of exhibits. The situa-
ton is an ideal one; the car service is perfect,
and it has superb water supply and fine
electric light plant. Mr.. A. Fenneman who
personally is much pleased with the plan,
thinks that definite arrangements very favora-
BILE to the show committee could be arrived at.
The financial side OF the scheme presents no
difficulty. as a small admission fee of 10 or Is
cents would provide for the expenses involved,
but is thought advisable that guarantee fund
of about $1,000 should be raised First of all
it would give the undertaking absolute securi-
ty, but at the same time it would present q
feature of propaganda for it. The guarantors,
it is thought. could at the same time be en-
rolled as members Of the permanent society. :
At the next meeting permanent organiza-
be begun. THEo. EoKARDT, Secretary.
An Ancient Hosiery In Belair.--Mr.
Fraser writes as follows to the Baltimore
News: ''Belair, once known as SCOTS Old
Fields, contains an interesting landmark-in-
teresting not only for Hartford county, but for
all Maryland.
Framed by large old trees, stretching out
its narrow, rambling length, its small win
dows, dark against its white, weather-boarded
walls the Eagle Hotel of the town has been
making history for one hundred and thirty
years, and its sign, an eagle, painted by an
old Irish schoolmaster, was. when used, re-
garded as a celebrated work Of art throughout
the county.
''At one time famous hickory shaded the
inn, and under its shelter the elder Booth,
Ohio Scott, General Israel D. Maulsby, Gov
ernor Bradford, Major William B. Bond and
other local celebrities held counsel, wetting
their Threats, dry from discussion, with con-
tents of the cup convivial. Edwin Booth, still
remembered as Ned in the locality, visiting
his home two miles away, often lounged upon
the porch
"The tavern used to be the rallying place
for political meetings, the speaker from the
porch addressing the crowd gathered around
him in the grounds below. and from this posi-
ton Governor Bradford, the war Governor of
Maryland, would harangue his countrymen.
William Pinkney made this house his head
ed court.
1.-THE old hosiery is still actively dispensing
hospitality. No other place can furnish better
or more lavish supplies of fried chicken or
NOT much c6ahasa % GAR Al u The tsyeEA is
the town its rear commands view of wide,
quiet fields, bordered by distant woods. At
night can still be heard the fittering of CHM
ney swallows, the baying of hounds, just as in
the days when the bequeued, knee-breecbed
fox-hunters stopped here many years ago.. Its
seven stairways all lead to restful chambers,
where guests are lulled to sleep amid the
voices of the cricket and the OWL"
