pose of giving the people the truth of our civil
war history and of extending helping hand to
strugg ing ambitious girls of the country, am
pleased to place a year at college within reach
of girl of this county who desires an education
earnestly enough to exert herself little. Should
the girl availing herself of this opportunity
prove particularly deserving, pledge myself to
the endeavor to open the way for her to COM
plete the college course. The girl who is interes
ted in this offer should communicate with me at
once, and her communication should be accom-
panied by the endorsement of her county School
Commissioner, the editors of this paper and the
teacher of the last school she attended. would
be glad to communicate with every ambitious
girl in this county who is struggling to educate
herself. MRS. JAMES LONGsTREET,

EARLY ON Thursday morning last the large
safe in the Farmers and Trust Bank at Mount
Airy, B. & o. Railroad, was blown open by
burglars. The report of the explosion was SO
loud that the residents of the town were awak
ened and believing that an attempt was being
made on the bank number of them armed
themselves and hurried to it. The burglars
seeing that they were in tight place, hurried
ly got away without getting anything. On
Thursday the detectives arrested twelve men

the gang that did the Mount Airy job.

GEN. L. VIcToR BAUGHMAN, chairman OF the
Maryland Commissioners to the Louisiana
Purchase Exposition, having completed his
labors at St. Louis, has returned to his home
at Frederick. Speaking of Maryland's con-
nection with the fair Gen. Baughman said !:
1.-THE part taken by Maryland in the EXPOSE
ton should be source Of great pride to every
true Marylander. Maryland, with but mea-
ger appropriation, had exhibits in the agri-
cultural and mineral departments which COM
pared favorably with any other state, as is at
tested by the fact that the Maryland agricul-
turaI exhibit took about 100 premiums, and
the geological exhibit received u gold and sill
yer medals Thousands Of pamphlets relative
to Maryland's resources and advantages were
placed in the hands of visitors. y The
Maryland Building was the most popular
building on the grounds. as is attested by the
fact that more than $4,000 people registered
there, and as many more visited the building
who did not register. The most distinguished
residents of st. Louis, officials Of the EXPOSE
ton and foreigners, honored the Maryland
Building by their presence, and crowds of
former Marylanders have each day come to
inquire about their friends and ask about their
former homes in the old State"

THE FOLLOWING paragraph appeared in the
news columns of the Baltimore Sun in its
issue of Tuesday last: "In connection with
the recent conference of Republican leaders
called by ex.Gov Lloyd Lowndes it is stated
that one OF the most gratifying features about
the meeting was the presence of former Post
master General James A. Gary and the atti-
tude taken by him at that time. Aftera num-
Der of matters had been discussed it is said
that General Gary was called upon and made
q short talk, in which he said that because Of
certain influences that had dominated party
affairs in recent campaigns be had been to
certain extent relegated to the rear. Now that
these influences no longer existed, or at least
were no longer potent, be was prepared to re-
enlist in the service of the Republican party in
Maryland and desired to bear his share in the
battles of the future. He continued for some
time in this strain and his words were vigor-
ously applauded."

COMMENTING EDTrORIALLY upon the good
work Mayor Timanus has thus far accomplish
ed the Baltimore Nsrs says: 1.-THE first half
year Of Mayor Timanus' administration is
drawing to close, and IL is merely stating
fact to say that he has BY bis conduct in Office
during these six months, disappointed the
fears Of the pessimists, and gone great way
toward realizing the best hope of the optimists
He has shown that be is capable Of mapping
out course Of his own, and sticking to it.
He has shown that be realizes the great OPP
portunity. as well as the great responsibility.
that goes with the Mayoralty of city Of the
importance Of Baltimore, at time Of such ex-
ceptional character as this. His action in
pushing to the front the question Of a compre-
hensive scheme Of city Improvements shows
that be is not satisfied with mere perfume
tory view Of the duties which the situation
lays upon him. To be rightly Mayor Of Balti-
more at this time-to 60 down to our munich
pal history as the Fire Mayor, the man who
saw 10 it that the city, in emerging from the
results Of its great confagration, got the new
start which il ought to have-it is necessary to
entertain the ambition of accomplishing some
thing more than ordinary decent administra-
ton. We believe Mayor Timanus entertains
such an ambition. We believe that his stir
ring up of the general improvement program
is manifestation Of it. And it is question
of the keenest interest to the public, as 1t must
be to him, whether he shall prove to be equal
to the fulfllment Of that ambition or not"

AT NO time in the political history of the
country we're conditions presented parallel to
those of today. The suggested parallel of the
decaying days Of the old Wing party does not
apply, for the Wing party at no time in its
later years had solid section behind it. nor
is there today any such issue to bring the vari-
Gus factions opposed to the party in power to-
gether as was presented in the slavery issue.
Whether or not there will arise new National
party out Of the chaotic mass of opposition to
the Republican party the next four years will
determine. It looks doubtful now.
