THE FLAG OF OUR COUNTRY.

Up with our flag on the breeZes Of heaven;
There let its Splendor be flashed in the SUM-
Lhe hope of the ages-of prophets and
sages-
Our pride and reliance, the MANY IN ONE.
Hail to the herald of Freedom and Progress,
Born amid battle-storm, trial and toll
Our forefathers priced it, for blood had bap-
tized it,
Twas sacredly cherished from tarnish or
soill
Brightly it beams, like the rainbow, in
promise,
Pledging assurance of Justice and Right;
Its glory and beauty inspiring the duty
That hallows it and holds it, unsullied and
bright
Beacon of Liberty-Sun- burst of glory!
Lighting with gladness the land of the free!
May heaven defend thee; its blessings at
tend thee,
Whilst earth's toiling millions, in hope,
look to thee!
God Of the nations through cloud and the
tempest,
Thou hast upheld US and guided our ways;
Mid trials unnumbered thy grace never
slumbered-
To thee be all glory and honor and praise.

a telegram to THE REPUBLICAN
was received last night from Senator
Louis E. McComas containing news
that will be of material benefit to
Garrett county provided the Sena-
tors views on the subject of estab-
fishing a dsh hatchery in Maryland
are concurred in by United States
Fish Commissioner Bowers.
The full text of the telegram fol-
lows:
WASHINGTON, June 81 have
passed IN the Senate the fish hatchery
Dill. Col. Pearre has a similar bill on
the House calendar waiting to pass it.
he Will now pass my Senate bill and
when passed Maryland will have a
1lsh hatchery. Col. Pearre and my
self are united in securing the loca-
ton OF it for Garrett county,
(Signed) l.. f. MCCOMAs.
This measure has been pending i'm
Congress for several months, but all
the time the bill has been followed by
Senator McComas and Congressman
Pearre. They have been untiring in
their efforts to have it reported by
the Committee on Fish and Fisheries.
The bill carries an appropriation of
$4,000 for the purpose of establish
ing and maintaining in Maryland a
hatchery for brook trout and other
fresh water fish.
The Senator and Congressman
Pearre are using their best efforts to
have the hatchery located in Garrett
county and it is thought that their
endeavors in this direction will be
successful, Commissioner Bowers
some weeks ago having intimated to
Col. Pearre that he was favorably i'm
pressed with this locality for the
hatchery.

One of our Baltimore exchanges
suggests the teaching of local history
in the schools of Maryland using as
It's argument the following:
THE school boards in the CITY as
well as in the counties, should add To-
cal history to the course of study.
The suggestion is made at this time
because the young men and young
women who have just completed
their studies in the public schools dis
play a woeful lack of knowledge of
local history. In speaking of history
we do not mean memorized list of
past events in chronological order.
History is far more than that. How
many of our public school pupils have
an accurate understanding of the re-
latlon of events in the annals of Mary
land? How many can trace the origin
and development of our institutions,
legislative, judicial, executive, NUM-
cipal, and even of our public school
system? How many know the import
ant part played by Maryland and
Marylanders in the development of
the country?
1.-THE trouble with the teaching of
history is that there is an appeal to
the memory rather than to the de-
ductive faculty of the child. Ger
tainly, there is enough material in
the chronicles of Maryland to make
that knowledge interesting and at
tractive to every pupil.
Baltimore is peculiarly rich in
stirring events and heroic incidents.
The opportunity ISL bundant, too,
for teaching local histry by the eye.
Excursions around TIL city conduct
ed by teacher familiar with the sub
ject, would result in imparting in
struction that would not be effaced
from the memory-lessons that would
be fixed by actual observation.
ut is a subject which ought to
claim the attention of Baltimore edu.
Gators. The deficiency in knowledge
of local history should be corrected"

EPwoRTH LEAGUE CONVENTION.
Sessions Now Being Held in st. PauI's NJ.
i. Church.

Representatives from the various
local chapters of the Epworth League
| embracing the West Virginia Confer
ence of the Methodist Episcopal
church met in convention in st. Paul $
NJ. E. church in Oakland on Tuesday
evening. The sessions will continue
until tonight when adjournment will
take place.
The program as. arranged by the
committee is unsurpassed, containing
as 1t does some most elaborate sub
jects which have been handled with
ability by the various speakers.
DR.. H. Scott, of st. Paul's church,
on Tuesday evening delivered the ad-
| dress of welcome. Always a forceful
speaker, at times a humorous one, he
eXcelled himself in extending to the
delegates a welcome on the part of the
citizens of Oakland. In the absence
of Rev. S. K. Arbuthnot the address
of welcome was responded to by Rev.
! ~ - lLCCSlls Vi AhOI s5dlltON H.
Among the most prominent persons
in attendance upon the convention
are Mrs. Annie f. Smiley, of Lowell,
Mass, General Junior League Super
| intendent; Prof. L. l.. Friend, of Nor
gantown University, who is a son of
Rev. d. A. Friend, OF Friendsville;
Mr.. Byron E. Holman, OF Cleveland,
O., Rev. L. w. Roberts, presiding
elder; Rev. j. /. B. Jones, Rev. r. b.
Ward, Rev. John Weir, President of
the BuckhannOn Conference Semi
nary; Hon. J. r. Trotter, of King
wood; Rev. Don S. Colt, of Baltimore,
and others.
In all there are present about two
hundred delegates who are members
of the convention, and several non
delegates from distance who are
here as interested listeners and WISH
tors.
The delegates are being entertained
by the citizens of Oakland and all
seem to be enjoying themselves, not

and rainy weather.

HOT TIME ON JULY FOURTH.
Prophet IrI Hicks Predicts Warm Wave
of Great Intensity.

Prophet Irl Hicks Predicts Warm Wave
of Great Intensity.
The July storm forecasts show that
a Venus disturbance is central on the
2nd, says Rev Irl Hicks, extending its
influence beyond the middle of the
month. On Friday and Saturday,
the 4th and 9Th, moon is at the ex-
treme declination north and at new
moon in perigee. These facts fore
shadow a warm wave of great inten-
| sity, low state of barometric pres
sure, high per cent. of atmospheric
humidity, and some wicked storms Of
thunder, wind, rain. Some of the
most disastrous hail storms that ever
visited the central and northwestern
sections occur during astronomic com
binations similar to those existing
through the storm periods in the first
half of July. Changes to quite cool
for the season may naturally be ex-
pected on the heels of these distur-
Dances.
The 10th day of July is not strictly
within the limits of a storm period,
but it is the date on which the moon
| crosses the celestial equator and is
covered by the combined influences
of the Venus and Mercury periods.
Hence the reactionary storms due
about the 18th to 18th, will most
probably develop on and touching
the 10th. Excessively warm weather
will exist prior to storm EXAMINATIONS
at this time. The opposition of the
planet Saturn falls on the 18th, and
unless frequent and general electrical
storms occur to break up the concen-
tration of the solar energy, a pro-
longed term of intensely hot weather
will continue through all the central
part of the month.
The central Vulcan storm period
for the month covers the 18th to the
goth, being central on the 18th. We
may, therefore, expect some notable
disturbances between Wednesday the
10Th, and Monday, the Goth. If these
disturbances do not take the form of
heavy electrical storms, phenomenal
heat will prevail and seismic pertur-
bations will probably eliminate on
and near the Goth. If general and
marked electrical storms develop at
this period-results rather to be ex-
pected-there will come a gracious
respite from the consuming heat and
drouth, thus assisting and perhaps
saving the corn crop in many western
and northwestern sections.
The 22nd to oath, inclusive, will
bring a reaction from high to a lower
barometer, the temperature will rise
to higher readings, and storminess,
with lightning, threatening clouds
and rain in many localities, will be
natural, all reaching the eliminating
stages on and touching the oath.
The last storm period for July will
eliminate during the closing days of
the month, low barometer, cloudiness
with probable rain and thunder
storms being in transit from West to
East as July goes out.
