THE TAX LEVY QUICKLY PASSED.
The Bill Went Through at the Extra Ses-
sion Unanimously. 1t Only Took
Two Hours.

STATE HOUSE, ANNAPOLIS. April 10.
The Legislature met at noon today
in accordance with a call of Governor
Smith for a special session TO pass the
tax levy bill. The bill was passed at
2:02 o clock, and adjournment of both
Houses was taken by agreement, the
object of the extra session having
been accomplished.
Republicans, in combination with
Mr.. Straus' and the Democratic in
surgents from Anne Arundel county.
wrested control of the House from the
Democrats in the extra session, and
while they made no attempt to depose
Speaker Mitchell and permitted Chief
Clerk Benjamin l.. Smith, Journal
Clerk Frederick Sasscer and Reading
Clerk Walter r. Townsend to retain
their places, they elected new Ser
geant-at-Arms and Chief Engrossing
Clerk and made several changes in
the minor employees.
Both parties held conferences be-
fore the session today, the Democrats
in the Senate Chamber and the Re-
publicans in the Library. Senator
Moore presided over the Democrats
and Mr.. Biggs over the Republicans.
The Republicans did little else than
to appoint Senator Putzel, and Dele
gates Walbach aud Broening a COM
mittee to wait on the Democrats and
ask them not to pass any other legis-
lation than the State tax bill and the
appropriation for the expenses of the
extra session. This was agreed to.
The Republicans were greeted with
applause as they entered the Cham
Der, but Senator Putzel iaughingly
requested that the doors be kept open.
The Democrats remained in confer
ence until nearly noon. The princi-
pal topic of interest was a resolution
offered by Senator Lewis, providing
for the appointment of committee
OF three to draw up pronunciamen-
to to the people, stating that the
Straus-Anne Arundel Republican
combination in the House was re-
sponsible for the absence of beneficial
legislation at the extra session. Mr..
Lewis ADVOCATED his resolution with
a speech, which was heartily applaud
ed. The resolution was adopted.

THE USEFUL ANGORA.


His Mission to supply Mohair for the Man
ufacture of Delicate Fabrics.
Since the importation of large
herd of Angora goats to Garrett
county the subject of the usefulness
of these little animals has been dis
cussed pro and con by many who are
unaceuainted with them or their
product.
Unlike that of the Belgium hare.
the Angora goat business cannot be
called fad, for the reason that the
animal in question is, and has been
for long, long years, an animal of
utility, and will continue to be an
animal of utility just as long as mo-
hair is imported into this country or
exported from it, as it is most assur-
eddy bound to be some day. AS
meat-producing animal he will no
doubt take his stand with cattle,
sheep and hogs in feeding the ever
growing meat-eating population of
the world, but he is never intended
or destined to kill either the beef,
mutton or pork trade of this or any
other country. When venison is
scarcer, and consequently dearer,
than it is to-day, Angora meat will
take IFS place and give to both the
rich and poor epicure a taste of meat
which is indistinguishabl from that
of the deer.
The Angora is not destined to kill
the wool industry of the world, for
the warmth of the sleeps fleece will
be always sought by all manner of
people in the temperate and frigid
zones. His mission is to supply hair
for the manufacturing of delicate
fabrics and to clear the brush from
off large and small tracts of land ex-
tending more or less from Maine to
California.
At the second annual sale of Angora
goats recently held at Kansas City,
the champion buck of the show was
bought for the record breaking price
of S1,050. He is a notably fine animal
and experts consider that he is worth
the price.
This buck is now among the origi-
nal herd from which the Garrett
county animals were selected. Since
the arrival here about ten oeys ago
of the animals ten OF them h e died
as result of eating laurel they
were being driven to the Goa Com
pany's land west of town.

IN JAIL ON A SERIOUS CHARGE.
John burst, of EVANSVILLE, Arrested,
Charged With Forgery.

ShdISeu WIN
week or two ago a warrant was
sworn out by County Treasurer W.
NJ. Lohr charging John burst, of
Grantsville, with having committed
a forgery by signing Mr.. Lohr's name
to two tax bills rendered by that of
fetal against his (Durst'sl property
for the years 1900 and 1901. The Of
fender was arrested and given a pre-
liminary hearing by Justice Nathan
at Grantsville on Saturday. In the
examination burst made contradic-
tory statements, claiming that he had
received, through the mails, the re-
ceipted tax bills, and again that he
had sent the money to Mr.. Lohr
through the postoffice. Justice
Nathan, in default of bail, committed
the prisoner to jail for the action of
the grand jury at the September
term of the Circuit Court. He was
brought to Oakland and turned over
to Sheriff Maffett on Monday and is
now in Jail.
The prisoner is an old soldier about
G5 years of age and draws "a pension
of S12 per month from the govern
ment.
1t is the opinion of those acquaint-
ed with him that he is of unsound
mind.

As there is somewhat of a lull in
the work of my new parish at Auburn
l take the opportunity to write to in
form you as to my welfare and pros
poets. The climate is much like that
of Oakland; proximity to the ocean
makes the air however more moist.
The country is rolling, very much of
the nature of Martinsburg, West Va.
Numerous lakes are near the town.
full of fine fish which afford much
sport. The town is larger than ex-
pected, and Yankee enterprise and
industry are everywhere. My work
is also larger, and the prospects greater
than anticipated.
The people both of my own congre-
cation and outside of it have shown
Inc great Kindness and have done all
they could to make me happy and
contented. | have been quite busy
preparing the rectory for Mrs. Os-
mond, who will arrive April 18th.
We expect to have all the repairs and
alterations finished by Monday or
Tuesday, April 18th or 18th.
My congregation is both enthusi-
astic and ambitious to be successful.

and in few weeks be settled. | miss
very much the beautiful Allegheny
mountains and wish | had good

near future to visit your town once
more

Letter to MaXOr Erear.

Dear Sir: H. NJ. Hooker & Co.,
Cooperstown, N. Y, have sold Devoe
paint for AZ years. d. Y. McGown, of
that firm, built a house in 80 and
painted Devoe, of course. The paint
lasted ten years
A year or two later, a neighbor
built house and painted it in lead
and oil. The neighbours house was
reprinted twice in the same time.
This looks as if the neighbours house
was painted three times in eight or
nine years, and McGown's once in ten
years. We are not quite sure-we
tell the tale as it comes to us.
1t is enough to say that Devoe lead
and zinc lasts twice as long as lead
and oil.
Yours truly,

economy is so great that no one who
has once discovered how much can be
saved by such direct dealing would be
willing to go back to the old fashion
ed way of buying, in which profits
must be paid to two or more middle
men. But the new business method
more than eyer requires confidence in
the fairness and strict honesty of the
business firm and a reputation above
any suspicion of unfair dealing.
The success of a firm having this
kind OF reputation is illustrated in
the career of The Columbus Carriage
and Harness Company, of Columbus,
o., which has sold an immense num-
Der of high grade carriages and har-
ness by a plan of shipment direct
from the factory, insuring every buyer
against loss or dissatisfaction. By
their plan a carriage user in Maine or
Texas can buy far cheaper than at
the local store, and.with equal oppor-
tunity to return any article that is
not satisfactory. To aid buyers at
distance this firm has prepared
large catalogue which shows by accu-
rate illustrations and careful descrip-
ton exactly how and of what mate
rial each vehicle is constructed. This
catalogue is valuable guide to buy
ers of carriages and harness and even
those who may intend buying else
where should have a copy ON hand to
consult in order to be informed what
the fair factory price is before the
profits of jobbers and retailers are
added on. Anyone can obtain this
catalogue free by writing to The
Columbus Carriage and Harness Com
pany, Columbus, Ohio.

Prosecuted peggy" Eaton

'sThe war which President Jackson
began against the United States Bank
did not test his heroic nerve more than
the war which opened in his Cabinet
over the question whether Peggy
Eaton should be recognized by the
women of Washington as Cabinet
lady" writes William Perrine, in the
Ladies' Home Journal. The promi-
nent ladies of the administration gener-
ally reached the conclusion that Peggy
Eaton should be ostracised. The social
rebellion against Old Hickory even
broke out in his own household. The
one conspicuous public man who did
not yield TO the feminine crusade was
Martin Van Buren,, the Secretary OF
State, who had the advantage of being
n widower and who had determined
with his suave deXterlty to please the
iron will of the President in all things
Jackson was delighted with his con
duet, but the diplomatic tinesse of the
Little Magician failed almost as much
AS the fierce mandates of Old Hickory.
The British minister, who was friendly
to Mrs. Eaton, was prevailed upon L
give a ball and supper, but it was i'm
possible to keep together any cotillor
in which she took part, or to direct thu
conversation at the table toward her
Then the Russian minister, who wa
also disposed to sympathize with her
gave a similar entertainment. The wifi
of the minister of Holland was especial
ly eXhorted by Van Buren, to take sea
at the supper table by the side of Mrs
Eaton. But when, after some embaI
RAISING dissent on her part she rt
luctantly consented to be escorted t
the table she deliberately walked out o
the room on discovering that Mrs
Eaton was seated at the head of tn
table"

the teeth and you will soon lose them.
Don't keep the sun out of your living

for our bodily we'll being.
There are some skins to which local
~ applied fat of any kind acts as an
irritant. l am not referring to cases OF
oily seborrhoea. Quite often, when the
skin is not greasy, fat gives rise to a
crop of red, itching spots.
Those who have their hands rough
ened will find them greatly improved
by using an oatmeal ball, made by
washing half pound of lard thorough
ly then putting it in basin and mixing
it with fine oatmeal, until no greasl-
ness be felt. If used regularly it is
said to be very successful in restoring
the hands to a soft condition
Tender feet are often made so by the
use of much-darned stockings. Wear
