For one reason and another I was
unable to visit Jefferson county until
the last weeks of the gubernatorial
campaign. Jefferson is one of the old,
but not one. of the original counties
of the state. It was formed from
Burke and Warren in 1896, and its
early history is that of those counties.
In the days of negro slavery it was
one of the wealthy counties, and that
it was a large slave community is in
evidence now by the number of me-
groes in it. Statistics show that the
county is in very prosperous condi-
ton.
1t was originally settled by a small
colony of Irish and Scotch Presbyte-
rians, who located near what is Louis
vile to-day. From among this peo-
pie came the celebrated revolutionary
fighter, Patrick Carr, who was a ter
ror to the Tories in the Revolutionary
War. 1t is said that he killed a hun
bred of these enemies of the patriots
with his own hands. Carr survived
that eventful period many years, to
finally fall victim of descendant of
a Tory whom he had shot in the war
According to the census of 1900, the
following is the population of Jeffer-

The third crew was gotten off next,
and as there were several men IN this
boat who bad never rowed before, they
got away rather slowly, but on their re-
turn in a half hour they had spfuced up
somewhat. Then out came the new eight,
which only recently arrived from the

FUNERAL OF LIEUT.. BREWER
Laid To Rest At Arlington On Saturday
A Native of Annapolis Who Was
Murdered In Manila.

Funeral services we're held at Arlng-
ton Saturday over the body Ut the late
Lieutenant Richard H. Brewer. Twenty
seventh Volunteer Infantry. who died at
Manila in July, 1900. The services were
o,ivaie and attended by the MOI her Of
the deceased, who resides in George
town, and by few personal friends.
There was no military escort, and only
a squad of cavalry from Fort Myer and
the bugler to assist at the grave attended.
Lieutenant Brewer was a native OF An
napolis and the son of the late Assistant
Surgeon John w. Brewer. u. 5. A. He
entered the Amy at the outbreak OF the
Spanish War and was killed by Filipinos
while carrying Government funds to
post near Manila. His death was neax
the outskirts of tina, CITY, and since then
il is reported TO the War DEPARTING mt
that all of the attacking party have been
killed or taken prisoners by the Amer
lean troops. Lieutenant Brewer was
widely connected with MARYLAND families
and was regarded an officer Of much
prominence. He has relatives residing

The Emergency Hospital Association O
Annapolis.

The work Of the Emergency Hospital
Association has been quietly but Steadily
going forward. The board OF Managers.
chosen at the public meeting, has been
incorporated. A bill has been introduced
into the Legislature asking for a yearly
appropriation from the State. The CITY
ana county have also been appealed TO-.
To maintain a Hospital, even on the
smallest scale Of efficiency, requires a
considerable yearly income. Annapolis
is the Capital OF our State, and is also
small city, and it would be impossible
for It to support such an Institution as a
Hospital without the appropriations we
have asked for as stated above.
Alter we hear from these requests. we
will then turn TO our citizens who are
ready TO most generously do their part
10 equippIng and maintaining the pro
posed hospital which has been a long felt
need. Though we have no claim on the
Navy people residing among US to assist
in such woTk--they also have shown their
interest in this undertaking as is their
wont. The Association. though willing
TO shoulder every responsibility, do moi
deem It wise to take any further steps in
the work until the appropriations asked
for are made.

HICKS FOR MARCH.
Another Month of Rain, Snow, sleet And
Wind-Equinootial And React
ionarY Storms.

Rev. Irl X. Hicks predictions for the
month VI February proved so nearly ac-
curate that what he says for March will
be read with muca interest. From the
Ist to the 4th OF the month general and
heavy storms OF rain. sleet, snow and
wind will be most natural.
All general storms at this time, and
throughout the month, will be equInoc-
tal ia character. The first stages will be
warm, with rain, lightning and thunder,
especially along the south and east Sides
OF storm areas To the west and north
west the rain will rapidly turn to sleet
and snow followed by high barometer
which will force cold waves and extreme
winlry conditions for the season eastward
and southwark over almost the entire
country. All through the mercury period,
which ends about the 10 b, cloudy and
tire ate ming weather will prevail, but re-
newed storm conditions will be marked
from about the BIB TO 10th, inclusive.
On the 9 h it will grow much warmer.
Falling barometer will appear in western
parts and very decided storms will fol.
low quickly, travelling eastward and will
touch most sections OF the country from
about the 9th to the 10Th. The chances
are good for continued and general storms
over the 10th and into the storm period,
extending from the nth to the 10Th. A
reaciionary storm period will center on
and about the Ioh and 10th, at which
time change to warmer, falling barom-
eter and wide areas Of more rain and
snow will pass eastward across the coun-
try. The storm period in which Boreas
and the equinoctial powers will make one
OF their 6nal and wors, clashes, is central
on the z4lh. covering the zIst to 10Th.
The cold weather that is sure TO follow
will change 10 much warmer as the month
goes out. the barometer will again fall.
ard more reactionary rain and snow will
visi, many sections in their march across
the States.

The Spirit 0fwinter.

The Spirit o. Winter is with us, max
ing its presence known in many different
ways-sometimes by CHEEKY sunshine
and glisiening SHOWS, and sometimes by
driving winds and binding storms. To
manv people it seems to take delight
in making bad things worse, for rheuma-
ism twists harder. twinges sharper, ca
tarrah becomes more annoying, and the
many SYMPTOMS OF scrofula are developed
and aggravated. There is not much poe
ny in this, but there is f,zfh. and it is a
wonder that more people don't get rid OF
these ailments. The medicine that cures
them : Hood Sarsaparila--is easily OBJ
tanned and there is abundant proof that
its cures are radical and permanent.

An analysis Of this fight indicates that

The Boston's heavy amount of metal, as
well as that OF the Baltimore, is due TO
the fact that they carried very heavy
