MULES co ON A COON HUNT
Remarkable Incident on a Cor
oiine County Farms
THE LITTLE ANIMAL IS KILLED
1t Falls to Dodge the Hoofs OF
the Mules.


Denton, Md, July ia remark
able incident is reported by George W.
Raughley, Tuckahoe Neck, Caroline
county. One of his men few mornings
ago saw several of his young mules
running across field, stopping coca
sonally to stamp viciously at something
with their forefeet. 1t was found their
victim was young coon, which was
trying to cross the open ground. The
little animal did not succeed, however,
in reaching cover, despite its efforts to
dodge the mule hoofs, and was killed.
1t was on Mr.. Raughley's farm a
short time ago that dynamite, placed
in a path frequented by chicken
thieves, was exploded by frisky cali
going down that way and touching the
wire with its foot, losing it's tail by SC
doing. Another victim has since passed
that way. mined with the dreadful
explosive as it still is. The second was
neighbours dog, which did not have
the remai kable luck of the calf, for
the poor dog was blown to pieces. Mr..
Raughley says no has lost hundreds OF
fowls by thieves, and he expects to
catch some Of the marauders yet. A;
night, wires are attached to several
small dynamite cartridges at points
most likely to be visited by thieves.

women Who Wear wei.

It is astonishing how great change
few years OF married life will make
10 the appearance and disposition OF
many women. The freshness, the charm,
the blilliance vanish like the bloom
from peach which is Iudely handled.
The matron is only a dim shadow, a
faint echo of the charming maiden.
There are two reasons for this change,
ignorance and neglect. Few young
women appreciate the shock to the
system through the change which comes
with marriage. Many neglect to deal
with the unpleasant drains which are
often consequent on marriage and
motherhood, not understanding that
this secret drain is robbing the cheek
OF Its freshness and the form OF its
fairness. As surely as the general
health suffers when there is derange-
ment of the health Of the delicate
womanly organs, SO surely when these
organs are established in health the
face and form at once witness to the
fact in renewed comeliness. Half a
million women and more have found
health and happiness in the use OF
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. II
makes weak women ST. ong and sick
women we'll.

Mr.. Bnynard Says There is no Truth in
Story That Mr. Short Was Invited to st
Paul's.
Samuel III. Baynard, member OF
the official board Of st. Paul's Methodist
Episcopal Church, says there is no
trIth- whatever In the report that call
was extended TO the Rev. f. Burgette
Short of Epwoith Church to become
pastor of st. Paul's for the next con-
ference year. The story as published by
a morning paper gives an impression
that Mr.. Short was visited by COM
mittee from st. Paul's and told that IL
he would get married within year, he
would receive call, and that he in
formed the committee that the mar
riage question wps one that concerned
him personally aud none of the bust
ness of the committee. Further he
was alleged to have stated that he
would not accept call should it be
rendered him, because of his friendship
for the present pastor, the Rev. W. L.
S. Murray.
In denying the reported call, Mr..
Baynard said that evidently it is only
gallery talk. %
He added that be has attended every
official meeting of the church in the
last year and never heard the subject
discussed or any name mentioned for
pastor for next year. The interests OF
the church ARE being we'll taken care
of and the board sees no reason for
hurry or worry on the subject of the
passionate next year.
,''Matrimony is not an issue,' con-
cluded Mr.. Baynard.

DEMOCRATIC LEAGUE TAKES ACTION,
Adopts Resolutions Endorsing the Work Of
the Kansas City Convention.

Adopts Resolutions Endorsing the Work of
the Kansas City Convention.
At a meeting Of the Democratic
League, Thursday night, the following,
drafted by committee comprising
Michael Devine, George Balling, John
l. Beehan, George W. Dunlap and
George 9. Morton, were unanimously
adopted:
Resolved, That the Democratic
League, pursuing its duty as Demo-
cratic organization, does heartily
endorse the platform adopted by the
great Democratic PARTY at Kansas City
as being an ideal document. embodying
as it does, all those principles which
has made the Declaration Of Inde-
peEdence an enduring memorial to our
liberty loving and heroic forefatbers.
We pledge our united and answering
support to W. j. Bryan and Adlai e.
Stevenson for President and Vice.
President. Realizing the great danger
that menaces the future happiness and
welfare of our people from the ever
increasing influences Of militarism and
| imperialism, we call upon all good
citizens, regardless OF party afiiliation,
| to unite with the Democratic party in
its efforts to stifle and check this
monster in ITS infancy. We would
recommend careful perusal of the
Kansas City platform on the part Of the
bread learners of our State. To them il
especially appeals. Suffering as labor
is today from untold evils, from the
uncomfortable greed of corporations ane
trusts, the nottingham is daily beine
brought face to face with the fact tba
the God-given right Of liberty and in
dependence is fast RELOCATED to max,
way for the advancing despotism o
concentrated wealth. While this or
ganization takes no backward steps, al
regards the platform of four years ago
we cannot but perceive the existence o
newer and grarer problems that strik
at the very bedrock of our institution
of freedom, and we commend the effort
of the Delaware delegation toward the
reaffirmation of the Chicago platform
the echoes Of which awoke the part
from its lethsrgy and breathed into i
that new life and vigor that makes !
now tie savior Of our national homo
and integrity.

REGULAR REPUBLICAN PRIMARIES,

Delegates to the Next State Convention to
be Held on August goth.
The Regular Republicans have se-
lected Monday, August 10Th, as the
date for holding their primaries for the
election of delegates to the State con-
vention which is, to nominate State
ticket; notices to this effect having been
served Thursday on Sheriff Taylor and
Clerk McCloskey of the Department of
Elections. 1t is likely that at meeting
of the State Committee, to be held in
this city tomorrow, August 2lst will be
selected as the date for holding the
convention. This will be one day after
the primaries and two days before the
Union Republican convention, which
has been fixed for August sd.
August 10th is the earliest date that
could be chosen for the primaries, as
the Saturday preceding, August 18th,
will be the last registration day in
that month, and voters are given until
that time to qualify for the primaries.
1t is expected that tie books will be
ready for delivery by Monday, the 10th
of August.
In selecting this date the Regulars
have virtually stolen n march on the
Union Republicans, who have fixec
August 22d as the date for their prim
aries and the 23d as the time for hold
ing the Slate convention. The Regu
lars will, therefore, in all probability
meet two days before the Unions, anC
