A Worthy Fccman.


 General Gfosyenor is greater than his reputation, which is great Two or three personal skirmishes with him ill the house, together with various observations of his conduct in engagements with other congressional gladiators, Republican as well as Dem ocratlc, convinced me some time ago that General Grosyenor, in what l term an oratorical sciapping match, is a foe man worthy of any mans steel.
 There are some statesmen in the house who, with Il prudence which is to be commended, absolutely and con siStently refuse to ilnpcril their repu- tatiDns by descending into the bear pit and taking a hand in mental Pugilis- ties. They perhaps do well.
 The very hazard of the game has a temptation for me that I can't with stand. Strange to say, partieipators in that killing sport grow careless, as bruisers do in the prize ring, and long continued sGecess= induces them 10 deem themselves invncible. They get their guards too high or too low. and some ambitious artist plants sleep producer on their mental jaw or solar pleXus There never was i'll this world place where King Solomon's njtine- ton against carrying your pitcher to the fountain once too often applied with more force than in the running fire debates of the house of representa- tiVes. 1 had been rather lucky in that dangerous arena.

SUPERIOR EQUIPMENT
which Includes Additional Floor space,
Better educational Facilities

The Central Commercial College,
North Center street, This city, for
years Maryland's leading commercial
school, opens on Sept. 2nd with near
ly two thousand additional feet of
floor space and an exceptionally
strong and efficient corns of teachers
experts in their several lines. The
college was greatly overtaxed last
year, and the outlook for the present
season is so encouraging that Prof.
Presho found it necessary to secure
more room and the college now oc-
cupies two entire floors of the Gep-
hart building on North Center street,
near Baltimore, the different depart
ments occupying separate rooms,
which is claimed to be decided adj
vantage to the students in the saving
of time.
On Wednesday August 2Sth the for
NAL opening of the school will take
place when the entire faculty will be
on hand to welcome the public. Prof.
C.E Presho, president OF the college,
gives his time to a general supervision
of the institution and has special
charge Of advanced accounting and
banking.
Prof. A. w. Straub, vice principal.
who has been with the college several
years, will have charge of the adj
vanced shorthand and typewriting
work Gregg's shorthand will be
taught by Prof. Willis Norvell, Of
Wheeling, W. Va, who will have
charge of that department..
The new principal of the CONNER
cial department is Prof. E. HI. Fearon,
of Columbus, o., pen artist of high
rank, who has had several years ex-
perience in business and teaching.
He will teach penmanship, book
keeping and similar branches.
Bookkeeping, higher accounting,
shorthand, and typewritina are
taught in superior manner in this
school. The tuition is low, the work
first-class and these graduates are in
demand. In fact there is no school of
the kind that can do or has done NOR
for its graduates than this well known
institution. Daily News Aug. "a.

AN EPIDEMIC FEARED
NUMEROUS DfPHT IBERIA CASES II
CITY AND COUNTY.
some Facts Given TO The evening world
by "a Pbysician--The Best wsys TO
Avoid the Malignant Disease.


Diphtheria, that dreaded malignant
disease of the throat. is now prevalent
to such an extent IN the city that an
epidemic is feared. Quite few
deaths from the disease have occurred
recently The physicians state that
there are mum erous cases in the city
and county and that instead of being
confined to one locality, the cases
are scattered indeed said ply
stefan, there are good grounds for
fear of a diphtheria epidemic.
In conversation with DR.. 4. +. SEN
cindiver. who has given the disease
some special study, some valuable in
formation. which the public will do
well TO take note of in view of the
present situation, was secured.
What is Dlphtheria and what is
the cause of it?''
Diphtheria is an acute infectious
disease, and is caused by special
microorganism, called Diphtheria
Bociillus and is PRINCIPALLY found on
the slcrlious of the nose and throat.
"How is 1t communicated Direct
contact is the way it is generally COM
municated, such as Kissing patient,
coughing. and splitting close to another
person, or it can be communicated in
directly through eating utensils,
clothing, toys or anything that may
have come in contact with diph-
liberia patient. +"
"What are the best means to pre-
vent person from taking the dis
ease?" If possible, keep away from 1t.
if il should be next door TO you, and
your houses only few feet q. part,
s hut off all communication, window
and doors adjoining the infected house
should be closed and not used II 1t
can be so arranged. Avoid as much
as possible coming in contact with
those who are in constant attendance
upon the sick. Do not receive any
thing from them unless it has been
disenfected.
Rendering persons immune by
small doses of Antitoxine is meeting
with favorable results, but as it is
somewhat expensive only those who
are well to do can afford it. Cough
and colds act as predisposery causes
and should be watched.
What is this Serum theory, and
Antltozine that is used?'
1.-The theory of serum hereby is
based upon the fact that the blood or
serum of an animal naturally or ar
tifically immune to certain disease,
will, when injected into other ami
mails. render them also immune, or
cure in them that disease, if already
acquired
"Diphtheria Autltozlne is simply
the serum, or liquid part of the blood
of a horse that has been subjected to
repeated injection of the Toxins Cor
poisonous element) of the dipththeria.
This serum is tested and after 1t has
r cached the standard strength it is
put upoon the market.

HARVEST MOON TO SHINE.
IL WIN Light Our Nights at End of the
Week.

The current nightly illumination by
old Mother Earth's faithful satellite
is called the harvest moon, because
it occurs on or about the time of the
harvest in the more northern Europe
an countries.
This peculiar situation of the sun, the
earth and the moon son sthei date OF
the autumnal equinox, which is usual
" on September %, causes the full
moon which happens to fall nearest
that time TO rise just as the sun goes
down, so that during the whole
period of 2 hours it Is light enough
to perform outdoor work. No other
II ll moon III the year rises for so
many days in succession so soon
after sunset. North of latitude 60 the
moon actually rises earlier the second
evening than 1t does on the day when
1t becomes full.
Our European forefathers conceived
that this was special arrangement
of Providence to enable them to
house their erops, and for that reason
gave 1t its name. The next full moon
exhibits in lesser degree the same
character istlcs, and is called the
hunters moon.
he closer the full moon falls to
the time of the equinox, the shorter
is the interval between tn rising of
the moon on the successive night.
This year the moon will be full on
the early morning OF September 2S.
and for a number of evenings it will
rise only about half an hour later
each day.

THE WATER QUESTION.
plan That Would, IL IL Believed, he
the Most Feasible az Present--To
Use some of the Bond Money
for other Needed Improve

At meeting of the City Ccunci
Water Board called for the purpose
Of considering the water system I'M
proyement question, Councilman
Westenhayer wishing to bring about
speedy action in reference to that
much discussed question, submitted
the following resolutions. There was
however, quite diversity of opinion
among the members of the board and
they adjourned without taking any
action.
Resolved That it is the sense of
this COMMITTEES that it is not feasible
at this time to buy a whole new
source OF water supply for the City,
and construct and equip new pump
station.
Among our reasons for this con-
clusion are the following.
G). The total cost of SO doing
will in our opinion exceed the sum
of S33, 600 the limit OF our available
credit, on the basis of the last assess
ment.
~. Even if it could be done for
the money available, we deem it I'M
wise under existing conditions to use
up the full limit of the present Dor
rowingability of the City.
(3). The urgent need of at least
one properly constructed drainage
sewer. OF some kind of permanent
street paving, for our business streets
and some provision in the near future
in regard to street lighting, dictates
that as large part as practicable OF
the $33. 900 should be saved for such
emergencies, instead of devoting our
whole resources to one public ability.
Resolved Further That it is the
sense of this Committee, that the
present system should be improved
as speedily as practicable in the. fol-
lowing respects:
~. That new pumpings engine
OF sufficient capacity, to meet the
maximum demands OF water con-
sumption, be bought and installed III
the present station, without. dnneces-
slry delay.
(2). T hat new supply pine from
the pump station to the water pipes
of the city be. laid, so that our supply
will be sefe guarded by duplicate en-
gines, boilers and supply pipes.
(3). That the water wheel be put
in good condition, and the tail race
cleaned out, so that all the available
water power may be used and thereby
overcome as far as practicable the
disadvantage of having the location of
the pump. station on level lower
than the rest of the city.
(4). That plans be devised to.con.
meet the Springs in the lower quarries
of the Standard Lime 81 Stone Com
pany with the present supply for use
in case of emergency and of dry
season. and also to protect the purity
OF the water from the Big Springs
from its source to the Sink Hole.
