Special Correspondence OF The Evening Star.
ROCKVILLE, Nd, March Z, 1904
A graceful tribute a few days ago
paid State Senator Jones of this county by
his senatorial associates. During the alb
senca of Senator Jones from Annapolis an
order was unanimously adopted appropriate
ing $500 for portrait of the Montgomery
senator. 1t will be the first picture to adorn
the walls of the new senate chamber, and it
is regarded as especially appropriate, mas
much as Senator Jones was the father of
the bill, authorizing-the erection of the new
state house.
Mr.. Chas. Franklin Kester of Meyersdale
Pa, and Miss Nora Stremmer of Friends
vile, Md, visited Rockville this morning
and were quietly married Immediately
after the ceremony the young couple regis
tered at the Corcoran Hotel, where they
had dinner, and later in the day left for
Washington.
The electric railway question is again
agitating the people of Rockville. Just one
year ago the Washington and Rockville
road discontinued it's tracks in the town
because of an effort to compel ii to comply
with the contract entered into at the time
the right of way was granted AS the law
now stands, the road cannot again be al
lowed to enter the corporate limits of the
town until after such ordinance as the
mayor and council may pass granting a
right of way is ratified by the taxpayers.
Senator Jones has introduced in the legisla
ture a bill repeating this referendum fea-
ture. If this is enacted into law 1t will
leave the matter entirely in the hands of
the mayor and council. Some of the citizens
are opposed to giving the council this abso-
lutte say and are circulating a petition pro-
testing against the passage of Senator
Jones' bill. There is every indication that
the people of the town regret the hasty
action in driving the road from town, and ii
is believed that it's return upon any old con-
ditions would be gladly welcomed by ma
jOrity of the citizens

coal cart, so far forgot himself yesterday
afternoon to beat his horse numerically
because the animal became stalled. A po-
liceIhan who happened along placed the
driver under arrest. and he was locked up
at a station house over night. This morn
ing when he appeared before Judge Kim
ball of the Police Court Hilman admitted
that he was guilty of abusing the horse.
and the court decided that he deserved a
fine of so. which was imposed, with a term
of two months on the farm the alterna-

says:
The Kansas City court of appeals de-
cided today tat the grain speculative trad
ing on the board of trade is simply gam
bling and that the real object of the sale
of the put contract or the privilege 1t
granted is not to contract for the actual
future delivery of wheat, but merely to
speculate upon the rise and fall in prices.
The decision adds:
The transaction from its inception con-
templates nothing more less than a
gambling in differences and is. therefore. a
stencil in the nostriis of the law"

DISCUSSING the CIVIL Service law IN gem
eral, Mr. Lyman said to his mind it was
the best example of constructive legislation
on the statute books. He could suggest no
amendment to it. but stated there are some
things connected with its administration
that he thought might be improved He
beloved there should be more complete spe-
cial registers. He said that 1t required
from three to six months to fill certain va
cause the civil service will only hold ex-
aminations when these vacancies occur.
The delay is very embarrassing to the de-
partment and requires the making of tenn
porary appointments, which Mr. Lyman
said are miserable makeshifts at best. AS
a remedy he proposed that the commission
test all the qualifications offered by an APP
plicant when under examination. Many
men might have special gifts in certain d.
rections who would be taking an examine
