COUNTY NEWS.
The Election In Saint hary's


Tuesday, November5 5, 1901, dawn
ed dark and gloomy, but the oppos-
ing political forces we're afield and
hard at work for their respective
tickets. The color line was sharply
drawn and excitement ran high.
There were times at which il would
have been easy in seme Of the dis
tricts to have precipitated riot, but
the sober second thought prevailed
and the day passed of without any
marked disturbance. The first re-
turns TO come in was the End precinct
Of the Third District. A short while
after, Daniel Stephens, of the 9Th
district, arrived with his returns
and the other districts came in at
long intervals, the last two to be re-
ceived being Patuxent and Mechan-
icsville. Mechanicsville's returns
were not received until Wednesday
morning and until they were in, the
Democratic candidates and their
friends were all on the anxious
bench, dreading that the returns
from the 5th might show defeat for
some Of the most gallant fighters on
the ticket. But, when Wednesday
came bright and pretty the anxiety
was all over and the full returns
showed a complete Democratic vic
tory.
We give below the tabulated vote
OF the county:

The famous Tower of Remem-
brance which was erected at Grave
lotte by the Germans in 1895 at a
cost of more than $500, 900 has been
blown up by the military engineers.
Originally intended as post of OBJ.
servation over the neighboring
country, it was afterward found
that the existence of such a watch
tower was incompatible with the
safety of the new fort outside Metz,
which il completely dominated.

Monkeys

sAll well-all happy-lots
of fun. That is the regular
report from the monkey cage
of Barnum's Circus ever since
the keepers began dosing the
monkeys with SCOTS Emul-
sion. Consumption was carry
ing off two thirds of them
every year and the circus had
to buy new ones.
One day a keeper accident
ally broke a bottle of SCOTS
Emulsion near the monkey
cage and the monkeys eagerly
Tapped it up from the floor.
lnis suggested the idea that it
might do them good. Since
then the monkeys have received
regular doses and the keepers
report very few deaths from
consumption. Of course it's
cheaper to buy SCOTS Emul-
sion than new monkeys-and
that suits the circus men.
Consumption in monkeys
and in man is the same disease.

When on one of the recent hot
days the lady of the house sent her
maid out to do the marketing, she
admonished her to get everything
fresh, and said:
"Now, Mary, get some string
beans. Break one of them to see
If they are fresh, and get two pounds

Mary looked indignant and then
blurted out:

"Pure" coanae?

Some interesting statements re-
garding brandy were made at a re-
cent trial in Dublin. A Kingston
grocer sought damages from a firm
of liquor sellers who had supplied
kim with brandy which he found
unstable, one of his customers re-
turning bottle with the remark
that he. had been given benzine by
mistake. The liquor sellers replied
that they had supplied what was
known in the trade as real Cognac
brandy made in Cognac, France,
from grape spirit and "other
things" The same brandy as that
sold under the name of Hennessy,
Martel and other famous labels.
Real Cognac, they said-that is,
Cognac made entirely from Cognac
grapes-did not exist on the mar
ket, all of the common brandies be-
ing blends, or mixtures containing
many other things besides the pure
grape spirit.

In the fifth grade of a grammar
school not many miles from the
statehouse the following story was
read by the teacher and the class told
to write it from memory: "a farmer
planted field Of corn and placed a net
over it as a protection from the birds.
Next morning he found a number Of
cranes and stork caught in the net
The stork begged the farmer to re-
lease him, saying, 4 am q bird of ex-
cellent character The farmer laughed
and said, You were caught in the COM

you must die"
Great stress was laid upon the word

that a boy, girl or bird found in bad
company showed great lack Of char

THE PAPER OF THE PEOPLE,
FORTHE PEOPLE AND
WITH THE PEOPLE
HONEST IN MOTIVE,
FEARLESS IN EXPRESSION,
SOUND IN PRINCIPLES.

A newspaper is an educator; there are all
kinds of educators, but the man who spends
money judiciously and literally is better able
to impart his knowledge than the man who has
little or nothing to spend.
THE SUN is the highest type of newspaper.
THE SUNS SPECIAL CORRESPONDENTS
throughout the United States, as well as in
Europe, South Africa, China, and, in fact, all
over the world, make it an up-to-date news
paper.
THE MARKET REPORTS and commercial
features put the farmer, the merchant and the
broker in close touch with the markets ut Bal
timore, Norfolk, Charleston, New York, Chi
cago. Philadelphia and ether places which are
prominent centers.
From now on the news of the world promises
to be more interesting than ever before and
national and political questions will arise,
making probably the most eventful period in
the country's history.
This, together with the corps of editors and
reporters at Baltimore, Washington and New
York, make THE SUN invaluable to its readers.
