Thousands of Feet
Under the Sea

thereare many beautiful things we are told, But
the thousands feet on the streets that have to
be shod are what we are highly interested in
at present. Are you a business man? Do you
walk to and from your place Of business? The
walking is all right and is necessary to your
health, but often, after that walk, your shoes
hurt your feet, perhaps to such an extent as to
make you swear They will do that-it is a
habit they have when they do not fit properly
Now the right thing to do, unless you like for
your feet to hurt, is to come to our store, bring
your feet with you and let US fit them properly,
comfortably, gracefully in pair Of Human
&c Shoes 1t makes no difference if your feet
are large. A large foot properly fitted in
pair Of Human-ic Shoes, is as graceful as a
small one

gresS.
In the case of Minister COnger,
this government is presenting the
extraordinary spectacle Of keep
ing a man at his post. which is
supposed to carry much authority
and discretion. and AT the same
time proposing a scheme to the
powers, to absolutely ignore him.
Because Minister C0nger has
views of his own, instead of hav-
ing adopted those with which the
Chinese Minister at Washington
has inoculated the Mckinley adj
miniStratiOn, a proposition has
been made by this government
to the powers interested to take
the negotiations for settlement
with China out of the hands of
foreign ministers at Pekin, and
make a fresh start through a com,
mission. The ground for TINS is
the alleged fear that the present
negotiations will fail because the
foreign ministers at Pekin can
not agree.

A DARING SPECULATOR
George H. Philips Secures a
Corner in Corn and Sends
the Price Up-No Contract
Corn in Sight-Fifty Cents a
Bushel on Monday,

CHICAGO, Nov. 26.-COrn for
November delivery sold today on
the Board Of Trade at 80 cents
per bushel.
This is the highest price since
1894, when, owing to a prOtract-
ed drouth, the market advanced
close to the 60.cent mark. Since
that time the coarse cereal has
sold almost down to the 20 cents
per buShel.
That there are vast quantities
of corn in the country is well
known, but George ii. Philips, a
member of the Chicago Board,
taking advantage of the fag END
of protracted bull deal on the
local exchange, which had result.
ed in the depletion of the con.
tract stocks of corn in Chicago,
gradually picked up all offerings
and today seemingly showed that
he had effected the most perfect
"corner" III the recent history of
the board. Practically no con-
tract corn is coming to market.
Phillips did little to advance
the market today-it advanced
on the efforts of shorts to cover.
When 80 cents were bid Phillips
sold 100, 600 bushels or so and
checked the advance. The mar
ket opened l cent higher than
Saturday, at 46 cents, rose to 80
cents and closed at 40 cents, a
net gain of 4 cents. Corn sold
in Baltimore Monday for 43 cents
per bushel.

Fabulous Wealth Of John D

statement that John ID. Rookie

$500 a share for 800 shares Of
Standard Oil stock made in the
Waldorf Astoria by Congress
man Jefferson VI. Levy. At this

An Old Confederate's Trouble

Alexander Hubbard, the old
ieweler who was beaten and
robbed in Baltimore some days
ago by three men, two of whom
have since been caught, is well
known in this city. Mr.. Hub
bard was a jeweler here for many
years, was a member of the band
and had quite reputation as a
cornet player. He was a COnfed.
crate soldier and one of the first
to volunteer TO 60 to Harpers'
Ferry during the John Brown
raid. He served afterwards with
credit in the Confederate army
all during the war. We are glad
to learn that he is recovering
from the assault and will recover
most of his property.

New Light on China.

community within the walls of

Those familiar in any degree with

WILL THERE BE ANY ROADS

Will our road machines be in use this
winter by the farmers Of Frederick
county who should be interested in
making new roads or improving the
old ones? Why is it we are unable to
get up any interest on this most i'm
portant subject? Other counties of the
State are calling meetings, organizing
in different districts, getting out stone,
crushing stone and repairing bad places
in county roads or making miles Of
pike. We already bost of some Of the

have been built by turnpike companies

obliged to 90 through toll-gate. In

repair bad places does not seem to enter

The Trusts Are Secure.

The Philadelphia Record says:
Speaking of Trusts at the Union
League banquet, Senator Lodge
declared in one breath that the
Republican party was prepared
to combat any social, political or
economic evils to be apprehended
from such combinations, aud in
the next breath he asserted that
the party would maintain the pro-
tective policy "to the upbuilding
of our merchant marine," thus
creating the opportunity for a
new Trust to be maintained by
direct combinations from the
Federal Treasury. From the out
start the existent Trusts have
been sheltered under the wing of
the Republican party. 1t cannot
be expected to turn upon and de-
Stroy its own brood.
The speech of Senator Lodge
may be taken as an indication of
the drift of thought among the
leaders of the party They in
SiSt that they are warranted in
their course by the vote of the
people at the late election. AS a
matter of fact, the Trusts were
aSsailed by both parties before the
election, with here and there
blunt admissions by Republican
orators, like Senator Hanna and
Senator Scott, of the real attitude
of the Republican party.

BIG PRICE TO PAY.
China Must Undergo Severe
Chastisement as Indemnity
For Her Folly Terms Of the
Powers Hard.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 26.-Like
a tuuudclbolt have come the de
tails OF jhe terms which the Tor
elgu Ministers have agreed upon
al lrAiu.
While the United States was
seeking To induce moderation OF
the demands and when most Of
tile other governments had given
encouragement, suddenly the
Minister'S come together, MIR.
Conger and all, and adopt de
mands that practically do not
differ from those suggested Sev-
eral weeks ago.
The administration is alternat.
ing between two courses that are
open to it. One is to assent to
the demands formulated by the
Ministers in order to maintain
the concert Of action regarded as
essential to the settlement of the
trouble. The other is to Tepud
late Mr. Conger~ action, reject
the demands, withdraw from the
concert OF nations and institute
independent negotiations.
Washington feels that it is be
ing drawn toward asserting to
the demands. The President
does not seem willing to abandon
the concert, believing he can best
serve the ends he is striving for
by remaining in.
The terms agreed to i'll Pekin,
according to advices received
here, include the following:
Execution by the Chinese gov
eminent of the II princes and of
ficialS already designated.
Indemnity, including satiSfac-
ton Of claims for the murder of
missionaries and damage to their
property and the property of other
foreign; reimbursement Of foreign
governments for the expenses of
military expeditions to China,
and compensation for native
christians employed by fore gners.
Abolition CT the Tsung Ii va
men, or Chinese Foreign Office,
as at present constituted, and the
appointment ola foreign minister,
who shall conduct business with
the foreign representatives.
Access by the foreign Ministers
to the Emperor's presence
Razing of the Fake forts and
some OF the other forts in Pechili.
Prohibition Of the importation
of war munitions.
Establishment of permanent le-
cation guards at Pekin and per-
manent guards on the road from
Pekin to Taku.
Erection of a monument to
Baron Won Ketteler at the place
where he was murdered and the
dispatch of prince to Berlin to
apologize for the outrage.
Suppression of Boxers by i'm
perial proclamation: removal and
punishment in future ofall officials
failing to protect foreigners.

HAVANA, Nov. 2j.-The GOV.

remove the wreck of the historic

bids for doing the work have
been issued and will be open on
December -. The use of eX

wreck and all material for its re

by April l, 1901, SO before six
months shall have passed all trace
of the once splendid ship. which
indirectly won freedom for Cuba,
will be gone.
For many months the disman-
tied war maStS of the battleship
has been the first thing of inter
est to catch the eye Of tourists
from the States. AS they gather
at the bow of incoming steamers
the wreck of the Maine is ALWAYS
pointed out first, and probably
half the passengers who are new
to Cuba take snap shots at it with
their cameras. There has been
talk of its removal ever since the
Americans took hold Of the Cuban
government. Last winter three
or four firms in the United States
expressed their willingness to
raise he wreck for what material
could be removed, but these of
ferS were not accepted.
At one time it was proposed
that the wreck should always be

that its continued presence is
