Thursday the board of heath placed
a quarantine on the M. Weinzierl re-
sidence and business, John Wehle,
having developed smallpox. Two
watchmen have been put on and a
thorough quarantine will be main
tanned. This is the first case of the
disease had here this year and in
view Of the proximity of the disease,
people should be just little careful.
Wehle attended the funeral of r. c..
Lawrence Tuesday marching with
the firemen. In view of the fact that
the disease had not reached the con-
tagious stage, it is thought nothing
serious will result from the exposures,
but it will pay all who were at the
funeral to be CAREFUL. We hope
John will soon recover.
The postoffice department recently
issued bulletin asking that people
addressing letters to parties in Iowa,
Idaho or INDIANA spell the name of
the state out in full. BY so doing
many errors are avoided For in
stance, the Authorization "Ia." may
be taken for Indiana. 1t is a good
plan to always spell out the name OF
the state and then there can be no
excuse for errors.

Hebbv,ue % n,str,ct-Tbe residents of

ceiving the message they were on the scene Dut
the house had already collapsed. Mr.. knust
stated his loss was fully 81, 500 with no IN

Several months ago the home of family on

We are extremely glad to realize that our
road commissioner has not entirely forgotten
our interest in the road leading from Powhatan
to Hebbvile. This is our principal thorough
fare to and from Baltimore. We have not
entirely lost our meagre faith in that utopian
period known as the GOOD Roads Era, and,
with little encouragement in the way OF inn

we could become firm believers.

Locust Vale Horse Sale.-The second
annual sale of Mr.. e. e. McCleary's Locust
Vale Stock Farm, near Towson. took place on
Tuesday and was conducted by the veteran
Baltimore auctioneer, o. A. Kirkland. There
were fifty-nine horses in the catalogue and
nearly all of them were sold, but most of them
at very unsatisfactory prices, according to Mr..
McCleary, whose policy is to sell the animals
he puts up regardless of price. The attendance
was large, despite the bad weather, rain falling
the greater part of the day and there being
small opportunity to show the horses off to
the best advantage.
Some of the principal sales were as follows
The Kid and Dandy, pair of bay geldngs
sold for $500; Duke, a bay geding, 6 years old,
brought $305; Edward, fine looking chest
nut gelding, went for $500; Kentucky, beau
tiful bay gelding, went for 1925; David Harum
a standard bred bay stallion, sold for 5000 ;
Uneeda and Uwona, a pair of brown mares,
sold for $780, Sealetta, a brown mare, went
for $500; Major, big black gelding and one
of the showiest horses sold, went for $3.50 ;
Fleetwood, a gray gelding, trial 225. went for
$500; Sam Nelson sold for $500. The others
sold ranged down to S135, the lowest price paid.

Turnpike Road Not in Good Condition.
The jury summoned by Sheriff Oeligrath to
inquire into the condition of the Back River
in the 18th district, and to deter
mine whether or motif was in such shape as to
entitle toll to be collected, decided that two
miles of the road is in good condition. but the
remaining six miles is declared not to be in
proper order The jury especially bases its
verdict on the fact that the turnpike is very
narrow in some places. The company pro-
duced witnesses to prove that 120, 900 bushels
of shells had been placed on the bed of the
road within the last three years.

Graveyard" for the Old Horse Cars
Two old horse cars, the last of their kind to
be seen on the streets of Baltimore, wended
their way slowly toward Powhatan, above
Gwynn Oak, at an early hour yesterday morn
ing, says the Baltimore Anareiedn. They came
from the old car barn at Pennsylvania and
North avenues, which is rapidly being con.
verted into an industrial hall for the Maryland
Merchants Industrial Exposition, to be held
next month Because of the fact that they
were two dilapidated to be attached to trolley
cars, two teams of horses were pressed into
service for this their last trip. The cars were
bound for the graveyard at Powhatan of
the United Railways and Electric Company.

New Business Enterprise in Canton
The Highlandtown Sentinel of last week said /:
Canton has another new industry, or rather,
an old one rejuvenated and enlarged, which is
destined to be one of the most important of its
kind in the county, or in fact of the whole
State. 1t is the Eastern Milling Company of
Baltimore County, purely local concern,
backed by local capital, and it is the intention
of its managers to cater almost exclusively to
local trade.
1.-THE plant is situated on O'Donnell street at
the intersection of Ninth street, and represents
an outlay of fully $4,000. 1t is devoted to
the manufacture of high grade flour, corn
meal and corn chop, and has daily capacity
of 125 barrels. 1t is fully equipped with all
modern machinery and improvements and in
this respect it is second to none in the country.
The managing officers are Messrs. Thomas NJ :.
Dinsmore, president, and John II. Richardson,
viceepresident.
of East Baltimore and suburbs as one of the
most enterprising business men of this section
aud he has been actively engaged in the feed,
-four and general grocery business on O'Don-
nell street near Third for number of years.
"Mr. Richardson is young but already
prominent attorney whose push and energy
have combined with business tact and ability
to raise him in the ranks of his profession and
in the esteem and good graces of his fellow
townspeople.
1T is to be hoped that the enterprise will
prove a success, if only for the credit of this
community, and the local public should do all
in its power to encourage and aid it. Already
the principal stores of Highlandtown and
Canton are handling the output of the mill
and the -four manufactured is finding its way
into the homes of many of the people, The
mill sells only to the retailers and the trade is
supplied from local stores.

The Unusual Case of Mr.. Seebold.-
John Seebold, AZ years old, of Pikesville, was
operated on last Friday for motor aphasia by
Drs. II. D. Brown, of Waverly, and A. o.
Burdick, says the Baltimore San. piece of
the skull had been fractured and was pressing
on the brain. This was removed and the skull
trepanned. Mr.. Seebold is doing well. The
case is a rather unusual one. Mr.. Seebold was
struck by cable car in New York about seven
wears ago. His wounds healed and he seemed
to have entirely recovered, but a few years
later peculiar symptoms developed, such as
being unable to express what he wished to say
and mental apathy. He grew worse, and it is
thought that but for the operation he would
have lost his mind entirely.
