the Republican candidate will win.
From the best information at hand |
should say the chances were in favor
of electing both Republicans in Bal
tirnore City, Denny, the gold Demo
crat on free silver platform will not
receive the hearty support of either
faction in the present crisis. Now,
what of the Eastern Shore? All eyes
are now upon that district, and the
Chairman of the State Central Com
nittee being popular leader who is
full of resources and thoroughly fa-
miliar with every foot of the battle
field, there is much to encourage us
in the outlook.
If the House is Democratic by any
considerable majority-the admins
tration will be very much embarrass-
ed. Even now bregandage and bush
whacking in the Philippines is kept
alive by hopes of Democratic success,
and the slightest political disaster to
the Republicans will defer the resto-

party camped the first night out on
the south side of Browns mountains,
in the open air, in the big woods,
making couches out of branches of
the fragrant pruce pine. Their next
camp was on the summit of Allie
gheny Front, near Pigeon Roost, at
the famous Huckleberry Plains.
/ Conglamerite rock forms the crest of
the mountain summit, and in many
places is piled up in huge masses and
weathered into fantastic forms, one
of which shows a remarkable resem

raid to Morgantown and held them

men to leave their arms in the burn

reminders of the time when the fate
of the nation seemed to hang on the

The return trip was made without
much incident save the wild ride
down the mountain on the tram road
behind a train of eighteen loaded
logging trucks. The heavy train
plunged down the steep grades to the
rattle and rasping grind of hard-set
brakes, very trying to the nerves Of
the inexperienced passengers in the
rocking caboose that followed help

What We Do and What We Get

Among those who attended the last
meeting of the National Editorial AS
sociation, held at New Orleans in
March, was II. N. Wheeler, represent
ing the Journal of Quincy, Ill. He
concludes his writeup of the nu-
merous interesting things he saw and
heard with the following sermon and
prayer for his editorial brethren:
And may the Lord bless the news
paper people, also and cause the light
of His contenance to shine upon
them.
"They toll for themselves, of
course, but they toll for others. How
often newspaper men stand like lad
ders on which other men climb to
place and fame and then, like lad
ders, they are put away and forgot
ton, or sneered at as being power lad
ders at the best. How often news
paper men give credit to others
which they know they themselves
| deserve. The newspaper man is al
ways praising some one else for some
thing done, but who is there to sound
the praises of the newspaper man
Newspaper men are always throwing
boquets at men who are not half as
deserving of them as they are them
selves. | am speaking for others, not
for myself; and of country, not met
ropolitan, newspaper men.
What newspaper men gets fair
credit for the work lie does for his
home town? | have never known a
deserving editor to get tenth of the
credit that was due him. How often
| it is the case that an editor will work
for months or may be years in behalf
of some local improvement or enter
prise, get public sentiment up to the
acting point, and then see some be-
lated convert to his ideas rush in and
ride the wave that the editor has
made and claim the credit for what
| has been done without this thought
OF aid? He even claims credit for the
wave; and in many cases the editor
gives this belated convert and wave
rider credit for what he himself has
done. The more modest and deserv-
ing the newspaper man is, the oftener
he does this.
"They passed by Jesus on the cross
wagging their foolish heads and say
ing: He saved others; Himself He

the newspaper man: He makes
others; himself he cannot make. 1t
is easy enough for him to get under
another and boost him to fame and
may be to fortune, but difficult
thing for him to get under himself
and boost himself. 1t is like trying
to lift ones self over the fence by
pulling at ones boot straps. Men
hardly know how to put a proper
value on the friendship of a capable
| newspaper man."
During the civil war, as we'll as in
our late war with Spain, diarrhoea
was one of the most troublesome dis
eases the army had to contend with.
In many cases it became chronic and
the old soldiers still suffer from it.
Mr.. David Taylor of Wind Ridge,
Greene Co., Pa, is one of these. He
uses Chamberlain Collie, Cholera
and Diarrhoea Remedy and says he
never found anything that would
give him such quick relief. 1t is for

Visitors to the Park last week have
gone away comforted and refreshed
with the charms of this idyllic spot
in cloudland. The sultry weather is
vanquished in the deep shadows of
the forest depths, while cool winds
caress the languid body and quicken
it with fresh vigor and animation.

and delighted visitors, so much so

register Grand view, all delighted" /"
Friday night, the 10th, there was a
moonlight excursion to the tower
from Wilson, w. Va. The party,
some twenty in all, making the trip
on a hay wagon. No jollier crowd
has been at the tower so far this sea-
son and mirth and innocent revelry
reigned supreme in the moonlit ave-
nues of the park and on the tower
stairs. The misty sky spoiled the
beauty of the view from the top OF
the tower, but the man in the moon
winked the other eye at the girls, as
much as to say "I'll see you later"
Some wild prank of midsummer
madness started the crowd on mid.
night trip through "Chilkoot Pass,
a yawning break-neck chasm in a
great bed of rock some short distance
from the tower. The descent to the
bottom of the chasm is quite hazard
GUS and very few make the trip by
daylight, but the girls showed true
grit and descended into the inky
depths by the dim light of glimmer
ing lantern and found their way
out at an opening farther down the
mountain. Returning to the tower
DR.. Jackson and the guides served 6
Roosevelt lunch to the delighted
guests and sped them on their home

Bandmaster lnnes is said to have one
of the most unique collections of sacred
music in existence. Not q few of the
works represented come down from the
second and third centuries. One origi-
nal manuscript indeed going back, so far
as can be judged, twenty-five hundred
years before the birth OF Christ. This
last composition is engraved upon what
is supposed to have been a tablet III an
Egyptian temple, excavated some years
ago by the well known Psychologist
Kloermann, and is, SO far as can be de.
ciphered, a chant of praise to the god
Ra. The library also contains several
very valuable specimens of the early
Gregorian chant.
Many of the primitive Christian an.
thems and Jewish hymns are repre-.
sented in this magnificent collection.
Mr.. 1nnes has been many years collect.
ing these works, but it is only during
the last few years that the enormous
earnings from his band have enabled
him to give full play to his love for this
class of musical literature. lines has
even Transcribed some of these unique
compositions for the modern band, and
the effect is said to be of supreme inter.
est not alone to the cultivated literateur,
but also to the ordinary listener.
Mr.. Lewis N. Megargee the we'll
known editorial writer of the Philadel-
phia Times, recently said of one of the
sacred concerts given by Innes and his
band II never heard a band of fifty
pieces in church accompanying the
choir; ! never sat among a congrega.
