Bloomington

Piedmont Independent.
Mrs. Beaure Roe, of Pruntytown,
daughter of Mr.. Andrew Mullen, has
been a visitor to her parents during
the week.
At the first days registration on
Tuesday last 10 new voters were
placed on the list and 8 transferred
to Allegany. The Republicans claim
II out of 10.
Talk about living within hearing of
a locomotive for 40 years and not see
ing train of cars, but we have not
far from Bloomington, a couple, hus-
band and wife, born and raised on
farm, one As years of age, the other
40, and last Sunday was the first time
in their lives that they ever took
buggy ride. Both seemed to enjoy
the new pleasure and logged behind
a faithful old horse chatting and
smiling as if it were their wedding
tour.
The drouth has at last been broken,
but the rains have done the wells but
little good and drinking water has
become so scarce that it is no unusual
thing to hear of a 'long haired scrap
oyer the possession of the windlas
when three or four women meet at
the town well for pail of water.
Tuesday was free for all day and
the entries for pugilistic honors were
numerous, excitment ran high for a
time and the long haired locks of more
than one has been despoiled and
shorn of its beauty. The trouble has
at last eliminated by someone pour
ing coal oil in the town well and thus
closing up water supply that fur
nishes water to number of our fam
lilies.
Tommy Devine, who has been con-
I fined to his home for the past four
weeks with fever, was on the streets
Tuesday.
Bloomington is fast becoming the
horse trading eporium of Garrett Co.,
all kinds, all colors, all gates, fat and
lean, sleek and rough, stalk through
our streets craning their long necks
oyer our front yard fences, feasting
on the flowers that happen to be in
reach.

affect the comfort and welfare of the
people than these, and if ever any
trust more wantonly and wickedly OPP
pressed the people than the one or
ganized and maintained by Mr..
Bryan's most earnest supporters. Or
yet again, seeing that Mr.. Bryan and
his friends charge that trusts are an
outgrowth of the Republican policy
of protection, and would be abolished
if the Bryanite policy of free trade
were adopted, it might be asked how
it is that Great Britain, the birth
place and home of free trade, is also
the birthplace and home of trusts,
and was ''plastered all over with
trusts" years before Mr.. Bryan and
his friends ever took to hunting the
dreadful octopus.
Such inquiries might, however, be
deemed frivolous, not to say flippant,
and therefore unworthy of so grave a
theme. Wherefore it might be better
to PROFOUND at once to Mr.. Bryan
this answering question, Why does
the Democratic party allow so many
of its members to have corns?

TARIFF Laws should be amended
by putting the products of Trusts up

ic Platform, 1900.
AS harmfulas American Trusts are,
this plank in the Kansas City plat
form, would close up every American

workman in their employ and would
give free entry to this country to
every product of English Trusts, en-
rich them and their employees at the
expense of the American Trusts and
their employees.

For three consecutive times Mr..
Cleveland was the nominee of the
Democratic party for the Presidency;
yet the Bryanites declare that he was
not Democrat. Mr.. Bryan is the
nominee of the Pupulists and free
silver Republicans; yet, according to
his friends, he must be accepted as a
simon-pure Democrat. This is the
same sort of logic Mr.. Bryan utilities
in his speeches.

THE Democratic papers print with
ghoulish glee every piece of news cal

for it rests with some of the Demo.

SENATOR TILLMAN says the Penn

that he would rather be a Southern

ocratic opinion of them.

ONE of the amusing things of the
present campaign is the statement
made by Mr.. Bryan, in his Fort

of soldier was dangerous one.

Struck BY Lightning.

According to lightning statistics,
312 inhabitants of the United States
on an average are struck by Eghtn-
ing during each year. Twenty-Five.
hundred were struck during the last
nine years. Farmers suffered most,
probably because of their exposed
occupation, for the danger from
lightning is found to be four times
as great in the country as in tie
cities. January naturally is tie
least dangerous month and July is
the most dangerous-123 persons
were killed during July. 1898. During
the eight years ending with 1897,
1858 buildings, valued at S17,672,-
772, were destroyed by lightning;
1891 of these were barns. Com
paratively few churches we're struck.
In 1898 buildings valued at $441,-
$50 were destroyed.
New York State headed the list,
with 395. There were no disastrous
strokes in Idaho, Arizona, California,
Oregon, Nevada or Utah. In the
same year 1,842 animals, valued at
$48, 900, were killed by 74o strokes
of lightning.

The Lane that Had No Turning.

Since adventuring into Egypt in
quest OF the raw material of which
fiction is made, Mr.. Gilbert Parker's
Canadian fields have been lying
fallow. He returns to them, how
ever, with new vigor, and even fuller
power and the serial which lie has
just completed finds him at the
highest dramatic level to which he
has yet attained.
The Lane that Had No Turning is
remarkable for its honest strength,
thorough originajity, and absorbing
interest. The scene of the story is
Pontiac (whither Valmond camel,
and the period the middle fifties.
The leading characters are Madelin-
cite, famous Singer. and her hus-
band, Seignior Ct i't.nilac, fnr whom
she dares all an, risks nil. The story
gains interest as it progresses and
concludes with striking and wholly
unexpected finale.

A Sad Catastrophe

From the Argonaut: An American
army nurse, who does not understand
Spanish and has recently returned
from Cuba, relates that one day she
was startled by the unexpected visit OF
her Cuban laundress. The woman was
intensely excited. She gesticuiated
wildly and seemed to speak OF an at
tack upon the hospital-of wounded
men butchered and nurses cut to rib
bons. The nurse was frantic. She
must know the worst. In the hospital
was an officer very'ill with typhoid fe-
yer. She knew he understood Spanish.
Only in a very serious matter would
she disturb him, but this was obvious
ly a matter of life and death. She led
the Cuban woman to the bedside, and
there the story was repeated. The
officer listened intently. The nurse
held her breath. The Cuban ceased.
The sick man turned his head on the
pillows. He whispered, feebly: She
says the stripes in your pink shirt
waist have run, and she doesn't know
what to do with it,"

the general. But he said significantly:
mo, gentlemen, if there was no seat
for that infirm woman there can be
none for me-" The effect of his re-
Duke was remarkable. One after an
other the officers retired from the car
and soon Gen. Lee and the woman a
it all to themselves. One night some
soldiers were overheard discussing the
doctrine of evolution around the camp
fire when a rough, honest fellow cut
short the argument by saying, with
great earnestness: We'll, boys, the
rest Of Us may have developed from
monkeys, but I tell you only God AL
mighty could have made such a man
as Marse Robert."-From the Ladies'

of Calvin is very much alive yet. An
American lady who was in the High

They were telling q story in Wall
street last week about a speculator
who is VIGOROUSLY parsimonious, even
miserly, with his money. He had a
religious INFRINGING in his youth, how
ever, and though he has departed
pretty far from the precepts he learned
at his mothers knee, yet he has
spasms of conscience once in a while.
One Of these occurred recently, and
while the conscience-stricken broker
was under the spell a consumptive
looking beggar asked him for a nickel
to get something to eat. Instead of
ignoring the mendicant, as usual, the
broker stopped and Intercepted him.
Evidently convinced that the man was
genuinely in need Of food the broker
told him to wait a minute. Then,
turning into q nearby saloon, the
broker bought a drink and swallowed
1t. Taking a handful of crackers from
the free lunch counter he walked out
and gave them to the beggar.-New
