Sherwood, NJ G. R. R.--Mr. Henry A.
Parr, whose large farm is near this place,
having determined to abandon farming, will
sell all his stock and implements some time
next month. The place is heavily stocked
with fine dairy herd, horses, mules, etc., and
the sale promises 10 be an attractive one. Mr..
Parr will retain the use of his handsome resi-
dence greenhouses and gardens, while the farm
ing lands and buildings will be rented.
Mr.. Lewis Ford, chief of the civil engineers
of this division of the Pennsylvania Railroad,
who had been living here for some time, has
received promotion at the hands of the COM
pany and his headquarters will hereafter be in
Philadelphia. He is a very clever gentleman
and took much interest in all that went OH
here, hence our people much regret the neces-
sity for his departure.
Samuel Young, a respected colored servant
employed in the family of Mrs. Elizabeth R..
Stevenson, of this place, for the past four
years, was taken to hospital in the city about
two weeks ago and died there from a compli-
cation of diseases on the 18th inst. His re-
mains were inferred at Bare Hill, Falls road,
last Sunday.
Through the efforts of Mr.. Allen Stevenson
the Mt. Washington Electric Light and Power
Company has placed an electric light of lis
candle power near the old railroad crossing at
Riders. Since the Joppa road has been tenn
porarily closed on account of the building of
the bridge over the railroad tracks, the old
Rider crossing has become an important one
and also very dangerous one at night The
new light-which is brilliant and powerful
one--makes the place almost as bright as day
for a considerable distance and is a great i'm
provement that the travelling public, as well as
the villagers, duly appreciate The Mt. Wash
ington Company bears the expense of the light
The Railroad Company has also placed ten
or twelve lights along the temporary road
since the section of the Joppa road has been
closed which is great help to those who are
obliged to travel at night.
Mr.. Benjamin Vanhorn, Jr., formerly of
this place, is spending few days here with
his parents. He was at one time assistant
ticket agent at Sherwood and was sent from
here to Sparrow's Point and placed in charge
of the railroad ticket office there. B.

One of its victims is Mrs. Emily Parker, who
has suffered severely.
Estella G. Baker daughter of Mr. Charles
Baker, met with serious accident while coast

House Burned-Family's Narrow Es-
cape-A large frame house in the village of
Glyndon, owned by Mrs Sarah e. Frush. of
Baltimore, and occupied by the family of Mr..
G. X. Yingling, was burned to the ground be-
tween l and O'Clock on Sunday morning last.
During the previous afternoon a coal oil stove
in the parlor exploded and damaged the furni-
ture somewhat before the flames were subdued.
1t is thought the second fire was the result of
this. A colored servant was awakened by
cracking noise and found the entire lower
story of the house burning. She promptly
gave the alarm and the family escaped by
rear stairway in their night clothes. The
house and contents are total loss. Mrs.
Frush had 1000 insurance, and the furniture,
&c. was insured for 81 800.

TRACY STILL AT LARGE.
The Slcuths and Dogs Lose His
Trail and are Completely Baf-
fled by the Bold Outlaw.

Seattle, Wash, July 10.-Where is
Bandit Tracy? the man who has ter
rorized this city for days and nights has
dropped completely out OF sight and the
officers who had him within grasp yes
terday are unable to give any idea as to
where ne is or what direction he took
when he made bis getaway from Renton. .
Even the bloodhounds are unable to
scent his trail.
For over a week Harry Tracy has sue
cessfully defisd small army OF deter
mined officers and citizens to capture
him. Several times he has been cor
nered like rat in trap. but each time
he has gotten away. And all this in a
strip OF country less than twenty miles
square
AS the hand OF the law has been
stretched forth to gather him in, Tracy
like tiger brought to bay, has shown
his teeth and they have bitten fearfully.
Three lives have been sacrificed thereby
and another well-nigh taken by the es
capped convict in his fight for life.
For life means nothing to Tracy with
out liberty. His liberty is the main
stake in the desperate battle the convict
has fought since he struck the soil OF
King county Nothing in the criminal
annals OF the Pacific csast c1mes near
the story OF the pursuit OF the outlaw,
and the narrative equals in all it's lurid
aud sensational details the record OF that
most famous Of all bandits, Jesse James
Three bodies in the graveyard testify
to Tracy's rapacity and his uuerring
skill with his Winchester In the hos
pital one OF the best k own peace officers
in the county lies dangerously wounded
from bullets sped by the outlaw in his
fierce battle for life at Bothell.
The desperado began at Ballard u
week ago yesterday and struck out Tor
he north. Thursday afternoon he killed
Officer Raymond and wounded Jack
Williams Thursday night, driven to
the city by the bloody enc lunter near
Bothel he found two men IN his way to-
ward freedom namely Policeman Breeze
and Neil Rowlcy Both were meat for
his ruthless desperation and his hatred
4 any living man who represented the
relentless force Of the law.
With the terrible cunning and d+adly
skill OF an Apache. Tracy sought safety
after leaving meadow point in the dense
underbrush and unfrequented byways 8
OF the country north Ut Seattle. He
travelled like. a snake in the grass. Driv-
gu to fight, he sought the city, where n 9
again broke reckIessly through the cor
don OF law officers, leaving trail OF
blood and wee behind him.

The union of the given name with
the surname often makes an amusing
combination. Sometimes it is accident
al, but more often designed The
story that went the rounds of the
newspapers some time ago that Gov
ernor Hogg of Texas had named his
two daughters IRA Hogg and Ina
Hogg, it is gratifying to know, has
been denied. A case in the east Of

the observer. A gentleman who bears
the common name of Case has named
his little daughter "Ura" Case.

MEDICAL TERMS,
Rules as to Certain Plurals Applic-
able Also to Other Words,

How to form the plural of some mcd-
cal words is a puzzle to many physc-
ians. We have been asked especially
as to the proper form of the pural of
neuritis, nephritis, etc, and Of iris, for
mula, etc. 1t seems to us the general
rule must be that if they are English
words, i. e., written in Roman and not
in italics, they should form their plur-
ais just as other English plurals are
formed. If they are still foreign words,
of course, the plurals must be. those
commanded by the language whence
they come. There is hardly better
proof of acclimatization than the adop-
ton of the English form OF plural.
If the Latin form is preserved, then
we should print the words in italics and
use 1t AS little as possible. But in Eng
lish we are compelled to use nephritis.
etc, because there are no other English
words descriptive of the facts. Such
words are as thoroughly anglcizcd as
any can be. If not, we should use the
Greek alphabet in printing them. Why,
therefore, preserve the Latin or Greek
forms of plurals? Who would say
leXica instead of lexicons, fac-tOtO and
ultimate instead of factotums and ulti-
matums? In the same way we think
that chondromas. carcinomas, tibromas,
etc, addendums, Ovums, erratums,
mediums, focuses, funguses, formulas,
genuses, stamens. indexes. apparatuses.
appendices, cherubs, seraphs, bandits.
criterions, etc. are the proper plural
forms. In words ending in lis. the
change to les, in forming the plural, is
so well established and so simple that
it should not be interfered with.
In this way we have accepted and
habitually use analyses, bases, crises
hypothesis, oases, parentheses, theses,
etc. Why should we not also form the
plurals of our words ending in -itis in
the same way, instead of the Greek
-itides? The forms neurites, nephrites,
etc, seem preferable to neuritides, nep-
hrtides, etc. We would prefer irises to
irides and irtises to iritides. The OBJ
jections to -itidcs are so evident that
they need not be discussed. and -itises
Is scarcely likely to be accepted, al
though it is perfectly proper and pre-
ferable to -itides.

That night when the party was in
camp the hunter told his story. 1t was
not believed, but he was so persistent
that 1t was true that next day several
hunters went with him to see the won-
derful ships, and their surprise and par
tial fear was as great as his own. They
examined the hulls more closely than
he had done, and the result of this ex-
animation was such that the story can
not be doubted. They went to the In
terior Of the vessel and brought back
with them some cups and plates made
for table purposes, and of an ancient
and ponderous description. Only Il few
OF them could be brought out by the
Indians. 1t was only the recollection
Of the manner in which they had been
disposed to treat the story told them
by their comradc that induced them to
bring anything away with them. They
knew they would not be believed II
they had no evidence other than their
words-hence the tableware.
The Indians also found q petrified
forest of tropical growth even higher on
the mountain, though in the immediate
vicinity Of the ships. They describe
these trees Of stone as having leaves as
long as mans body and very broad.
