ate on its third and final reading during the

pr0vement Association will ask the present
Legislature for the passage OF an enabling act
authorizinNan appropriation of $4,000 for
new school building in Highlandtown; bill

j., near Raspeburg. continues to be shrouded
in mystery. although the detectives and officers
have been constantly at work on it and nearly
two thousand dollars in rewards have been Of
fered for the arrest and conviction of the per
petrator. Such crimes are serious reflection
upon the county and neither effort nor ex-
pense should be spared in ferreting them out.

The Park Board sustained the action Of Mr..
Crosby and Mayor McLane also heartily en-
dorsed it.
- Delegate Cockey,. of Baltimore county,
hasn't shot ybody at Annapolis yet. but it is

Department for one of the old monitors that
were put out of commission some time ago.
He wants to use that instrument Of death on
the man who made the picture of him that
appeared 10 the Baltimore Neaos of Wednes-
day. With Col. Cockey forbearance has
ceased to be virtue. Only blood will suffice
now.
