It is a mistake to imagine that the
violent passions only, such as ambition
and love, can triumph over the rest.
Idleness, languid as 1t is, often masters
them ALL She indeed influences all our
designs and actions, and insensibly
consumes and destroys both passions
and Virtuea.

Laurel High School.

It is proposed in the near future to in
troducc manual training for both boys and
girls in the Laurel High School, beginning
in plain way and gradually extending
the work until it equals that of any county
Manual Training School in the State. The
educational department will be divided
into two courses, known as the Cuisines
Course" and classical Course"
The first will give instruction in all the
branches taught in the public schools OF
the State and, in addition, bookkeeping
knowledge of business transactions, stem
ogra ply and typewrting. Graduation in
this department will entitlc the student to
a teachers second grade certificate. The
second course will include, in addition, in.
structon in Latin, French, German, Phys
les, Higher English and Higher Mathe-
matics Graduation in this course will
give first grade teachers certificate. This
is the general plan and idea. Changes will
be made in curriculum of studies rs eX-
periencc dictates.
The school is provided with first class
piano, and opportunity will be afforded to
those who wish instruction in music to
obtain it at smallest.
Mr. Stone believes that it will pay the
lower counties of Maryland, Charles, Cal
vert and St. Mary's, to use this school
rather than to establish a High School in
each of the respective counties.

Horse Shed His Skin.

Tho Washington Post, of yesterday said
The la.cst novelty in horse trades was
brought to the notice of the police several
days ago when William Jones, a colored
man, living on small farm near Upper
Marlboro, Prince George County, Md,
walked into Maj Sylvester's office with
bundle of crisp calfskin under his arm
and face that spoke wrath and woe.
What happened to Jones the latter pro-
ceedcd to make plain. He said he had
purchased for $3.50 from Michael
McQuade, local horse dealer an animal
represented to be sound and a willing
worker. Jones took it to his place in
Maryland.
He was in need of good farm horse,
and started to work the animal. In this
he met with no cooperation on the part
of his recent purchase. No amount of
scolding, cajoling, or other coaxing in
duced the horse to work. Jones, SADLY
mindful of the money he had paid for this
latest addition to his stable, experimental
at length, but in vain, to discover the
cause of this disagreeable prediction.
The horse wouldn't work, and was finally
turned into field to Craze. Jones thought
the beast might be i'll and trusted to rest
for Il cure.
Toward the end of las. week Il severe
rainstorm passed over the Jones farm,
thoroughly soaking the horse. Then the
sun came out again, and Jones horse be-
gan to assume the characteristics of a but
tcrf1y passing from the caterpillar stage.
When Jones approached to make au eX-
animation, he thought he saw the animal
coming apart Here and there the skin of
the horse was curling outward from the
animals back, and closer scrutiny devel-
oped the fact, Jones declared, that large
patches of calfskin tanned on one side
and with the hair left on the other had
been pasted Oh the animal to conceal bare
places where the hair and skin had been
previously rubbed off by harness. When
Jones got over the shock he proceeded to
apply water until he removed several
square yards of cafskin. He then came
to town with the substitute horse hide and
secured warrant for McQuade, charging
false pretcnscs. This was placed in the
hands of detectives, who arrested the
horse dealer. When the case was called
in the Police Court yesterday, Attorney
Campbell Darlington, representing the de-
Tense, obtained a postponement of the
hearing until next Wednesday.

An Interesting Point Decided

Judge Burke, of Baltim ore county, has
at Towson that the grantor must pay for
the revenue stamp on deed conveying
property Judge Burke held that the
grantor of deed agrees to deliver valid
deed to the grantee, and that in order
that deed be valid, it must have the
revenue stamp attached, and therefore
the party selling the property is required
to furnish them. The matter came up in
the case of the trustees of Waugh Chapel
againt D. H. Twinning. 1t is probably
the first decision on the question render
ed in Maryland.

Condition Of The Crops.

The Weather Bureaus weekly summary
of crop conditions is as follows
The week ended August 81 is the fourth
of excessive heat in the districts east of
the Rocky Mountains, and while it was
dry over the greater part of the Southern
States, portions of New England and the
Ohio Valley there were in these districts
good rains over local areas and general
and abundant rains over the northern por-
tions of the central valleys, southern half
of the Upper Lake Region and in the Mid
die Atlantic States.
The temperature has been favorable for
the rapid development of corn. a large
part of the early crop being already made,
some having been cut as far north as Iowa
and Illinois. The album ant rains which
fell in Nebraska, Kansas and Missouri
have improved the condition of corn, but
much in the two last mentioned States has
been permanently injured, while the crop
in Southern Illinois and Western Ken
lucky continues to suffer from drouth.
Over the northern portions of the Cult
and South Atlantic States the week was
unfavorable for corn.
Heavy rains in the spring wheat region
have retarded threshing and prevented
the completion of harvest in North Dako-
ia, in which State as well as in Minnesota
and portions of Nebraska stacked wheat
has sustained damage. Rains have also

In Western Kentucky, the Carolinas
and portions of Virginia and Maryland
tobacco has suffered much from drouth,
but in the two last named States rains of
the past week have materially improved
its condition. In the other tobacco States
the crop has made favorable progress. al
though sustaining damage from hail in
Wisconsin.
