Mr.. Rudolph Cunningham, now con-
nectcd with the Maryland House OF Cor
rection, spent the Fourth of July at his
old home in Abingdon. Mr.. Cunningham
states that in 2S2 cells they are now con-
filming 500 inmates. thus emphasizing the
Importance of the improvements now
nearing completion. The serious need OF
cnlarging the buildings was recognized
by Governor Lowndes during his admin
istration but not provided for.
Mr.. s. \. Williams had n close call
from Il very serious accident on last Fri
day. While riding on trolley car near
Towson hecxtended his hand slightly be.
yond the car to detect whether or not 1t
was raining, when his arm struck with
great violence trolley post set danger
ouslv near the TT lck. The blow was sui
ficientlv violent to sprain his wrist and
shoulder and badly swell his hand, the
wonder being that his arm was not bro
ken. He is much better at this writing.
The glorious Fourth was generally
celebrated throughout the county and
we are pleased to say that we have no
unfortunate accidents to record as re-
suit. We desire to commend to the attcn-
ton of our readers the value of such cele-
hration of the day as occurred in Havre
de Grace, Aberdeen and Bel Air. Such
patriotic reminders of our heritage from
our forcfathcrs tend to elevate our stan
dard of citizenship far more than the
noisy pyrotcchnic display which has so
largely displaced them.
We have just learned the details of a
most interesting crop of wheat Mr.. c.
Bnslev Littig is now harvesting on his
farm near Van Bibber. the yield being va
rously estimated at from thirty to forty
bushels per acre In June of last year he
sowed piece OF very poor heavy soil in
COW peas, and plowcd down a heavy
crop in September. The wheat was sown
towards the middle of October with an
application of three hundred pounds per
acre of commercial fertilizers. In addi-
ton to the fine wheat crop he has an eX-
ccllcnt set of grass.
-Childrens Day service was held at
the FaIlston Presbyterian Church last

present. The services were interSpcrscd
with exercises by the children, consisting
of Rotations and readings. The scholars
all deserve great credit for the able man.

teen new scholars to its roll. Services

MIR. Stuart S Janney, of the Balti-
more bar, has been appointed trustee to
succeed Mr. Lewis n. Hopkins, who ask
cd to lie relieved of the trust i'll favor
the heirs of Mrs. Sarah ii. Janney, which
was created by the will of the late Johns
Hopkins. Mr.. Janney was born and
raised on Indian Spring farm, near Priest
ford bridge, rendered valuable service to

DIR. John Sappington, of Darlington,
one of the leading physicians of the coun-
IS, who represented Hartford county in
the Senate of MARYLAND from 1886 to
1890, was suddenly stricken with par
alysis while engaged in his professional
duties on Saturday and has remained in
AN alarming condition since His horse
brought him into Darlington, leaning
from his buggy i'll an unconscious condi-
ton; he WAS promptly taken to his home
by friends, and Doctors Kirk and Hop
kins, of Darlington, and Thaycr, of Bal
timore. did all in their power for his re-
lief. The whole of one side is completely
paralvzcd and the power of speech gone.
The recent act of the General Assem-.
bly, popularity known as the Jim Grow"
aw went into effect on July 1. The
transportation companies affected had
prepared to carry out its provisions, and
for the most part this was done without
friction. A colorcd lawyer of Annapolis
has announced his intention to attack
the law, but VIC do not anticipate that
there will be an extraordinary contest.
The law is not only reasonable, but tends
to allay rather than intensity feeling be
tween the races. No one in Maryland
doubts the value of separate schools and
separate churches, and separate public
convevanccs will not only remove a scri-
Gus element of discomfort i'll many sec
tinus, but will tend to remove fruitful
source of friction which arises from an
interm;nglng of the races.
The officers of the Bel Air Circulating
Library regret to say that the present
