James c. Davis.

Information has been received by
his friends of the death in st.
Louis of James @. Davis, a native
of this county. The deceased was
a son of the late James A. Davis of
Port Deposit, and for number of
years was associated with his uncle,
Nv. w. Davis, in the lumber bus
mess in North East. He was twice
married, his first wife being a
daughter of the late Rev. C. F.
Sheppard, from whom he was d.
vorced. He later married again,
and leaves widow and one child.
After leaving North East he held a
position in the custom house at
baltimore, later moving to st.
Louis and engaging in the lumber
business.

Maryland Corn Wins Medals At
Worlds Fair.

The Baltimore Sun says: Now that the
Worlds Fair record is being made public.
it is noted that Maryland grains are
among the State products that received
prizes. A. G, Kolk, of Long Green Val
ley, Baltimore county, got silver medals
on white corn, wheat and sunhower
seeds; A. P. Silver, Glenville, Hartford
county, for yellow corn, silver medal; E.
D. Oswald, Chenowith, wheat and oats,
bronze medal; Samuel Enfield. Forest
Hill, for corn, bronze medal; J. M. Mitch
ell, sweet corn, medal; Joseph 7, Hoops,
Bynum, corn, bronze medal, and gold
medal on timothy and alfalfa. Noah
Small, Bel Air, wheat and oats, bronze
medals. This is good showing for Har-
ford county. Frederick Won Kapf, Of
Cowpens Farm, Baltimore county, was
awarded bronze medal on yellow corn
The fact that at the Chicago Worlds Fair
aud at the last Pair Exposition Maryland
corn received the highest awards and is
again so prominently recognized at ST.
Louis reflects great credit on the farmers
of Maryland. With the scant appropria-
ton in this State available to collect agri-
cultural exhibits for St. Louis, the show
ing is remarkable. 1t shows that the
soils of Maryland and the climatic condi-
tions are such that the State can success
fully compete with any State in the
Union in corn growing. VIM. L. Amoss
deserves great credit for his persistent
efforts, handicapped as he was in getting
together agricultural exhibits from the
State.

NATIONAL ELECTION DAY.


why It's the Tuesday After the First
Monday In November.
Why should the law prescribe 1.-THE
Tuesday next after the first Monday
In November" instead of saying 1.-The
first Tuesday?' Like many other small
things this provision introduces an in
teresting picture Of the past.
Although the constitution requires
the electors in all the states to meet
and choose a president on the same
day, it was not until 1s45 that law
was passed by congress providing that
the electors should be chosen on the
same day throughout the United
States. When William Henry Harrison
was the Wing candidate, in 1910, New
York began to vote on the first Monday
in November, and the polls were kept
open until Wednesday night. Election
day in Massachusetts was the second
Monday, but before that day, in this
instance, enough states had voted to de-
eide the contest. The National Intelli-
gencer of that year records that several
thousand aged and 1nflrm Wings in
Massachusetts did not bother to go to
the polls.
Delaware voted day later than
Massachusetts,. Illinois, Indiana and
Pennsylvania were among the early
voting states. Alabama was one OF the
last. This diversity, combined with
slow methods Of transmitting news,
left the election results In doubt for
many days.
The system was not satisfactory. The
states that voted early had an undue
influence on the result. Especially was

Senators and members are holly discuss:
ing the expediency of an extra session to
revise the tariff. Both parties concede
that something should be done, but the
problem has not yet arrived at an equa-
tion, and its elements are in such chaotic
state that it seems likely at the present
moment that the serious consideration of
it will be postponed another year. Mem.
bers of Congress are always warmly averse
TO remaining here during the hot summer,
aud that fact may be more influential than
the interests of the country. In the seth
Congress of 1856 members the Republicans
will have 252 votes, considerably more
than twice as many as the entire Demo
cratic membership. And they will have
the support of the Senate even if they
should pass big ship subsidy bill.

Japanese Courage.

The little men Of Japan can give the
world many thrilling stories of courage
and many Of clever stratagem as well.
One Of the powerful mobiles Of the
olden time was forced to flee from his
enemy In haste. He hid In a barrel and
was borne away by servants, who,
meeting the enemy. declared that the
barrel contained food.
IF there Is anything living in it
there will be blood on my sword" said
the nobleman's enemy and thrust his
weapon into the barrel. 1t went
through the hidden mans legs and
made a terrible wound. But he, with
quick thought, wiped the blade on the
hem of his garment as 1t was drawn
out. SO that 1t went out clean. and he
was not discovered.

Clever Schemes That Aid In the Per-

Clever Schemes That Aid In the Per-
petratiOn of Crime.
'.Thieyes resort to clever methods in
order to get away with the goods" said
an old police officer, land am firmly
convinced that If the criminals of the
world would devote the same amount
of time, talent and patience to think
ing out uplifting and advantageous
schemes for humankind they would
in short while revolutionize the world
in many useful ways. But somehow
the mind of the criminal seems to
be sharper, if may say it, and bright
er and quicker than the mind Of the
honest man. The fact may be ex-
planned in any number of ways. In
the first place, the criminal has moth
ing to do but think out some plan
Of getting something that doesn't be-
long to him. That is his special busi-
ness. Quite naturally the plan he
works out under those circumstances
will often startle even the oldest men
in the police departments Of the coun-
try. Who would have thought of the
wire saw, a thing so small that it can
be slipped in between the layers Of the
shoe sole. but the criminal who found
in it a ready, convenient and unfailing
means of escape? He is constantly
thinking up some new scheme. Here
we find man and woman in a jewelry
store. The woman carries parrot with
her. The bird suddenly gets away and
begins to futter around in the store.
The jeweler Is afraid the parrot will
break something. He tries to catch it
and succeeds after a short while. A
small purchase is made. The man and
the woman leave. Result, several hun
dred dollars worth of jewelry gone.

over the bird. Good scheme, eh? Yet
