BLOOMINGTON.

The new bridge across the Potomac
river between this place and Buxton,
to be erected conformity by the coun-
ties of Garrett, this state and Mineral,
OF West Virginia, was commenced on
last Monday morning. Mineral coun-
ty as her share in the work has dona-
ted the bridge being one of the spans
now between Westernport and Pied
mont, which is to be replaced by
new structure on account of the old
bridge being too small to accommo-
date the rapidly increasing traffic be-
tween the two places. Garrett will
build the abutments and place the
span in position, which is approx
mately estimated to cost 81, 900. Com
missioner Stump is in charge and is
looking after the interests of the tax
payers in keeping down expenses.
Miss Minnie Walker, of Blaine, w.
Va, was in town last week visiting

ploymcnt to nearly all of the mining
population of the place, is on half

FRUIT FOR ST. LOUIS FAIR.

The Maryland Horticultural Society
Asks for Garrett County Varieties.
Maryland Day at the st. Louis Fair
will be SEPTEMBER 18th, and it is the
desire of those having charge of our
States interest to have as fine a show
upon that date as possible. In this
connection the Maryland Horticultu-
raj Society will send car load of
choice fruit, and the wish is that
each county shall contribute.
AS e-President for Garrett conn.
ty, L have been asked to secure an
exhibit from our county, and take
this means of letting the wish be
known generally.
May | not ask that each farmer will
examine his orchards, apple. plum,
peach, etc, and see whether he has
not at least one variety worthy of
representation and if 20, pick care
fully by hand not less than dozen
specimens of each variety, giving the
name), wrap them each separately in
SOFT paper, and send them with my
name in care of one of the leading
merchants of Oakland, on Tuesday.
September 9th.
Each exhibitor will be given credit
for his exhibit but | shall reserve the
right 20 reject any not coming up to
the required standard of perfect fruit.
L earnestly hope that all will take
an interest in this matter, and that
we may secure an exhibit worthy of
our county.
Yours truly,
W. MCCULLOH BROWN,
Vice Pres. Md. Hort. Society.

10 the Editor of The Republican,:
Recently | read a communication
In your paper from the pen of Mr..
Jacob Brown, of Cumberland, who
paid our community visit week
or two ago, which he describes as
pleasant to him but modestly conceals
the pleasure these yearly visit af-
ford all who have had the opportuni-
ty to meet him. Mr.. Brown from the
earliest days of his life has impressed
all who know him with the many
good qualities of his character, being
kind and generous to all men and
never forgetting to speak kind words
of advice to old and young. He af-
fords instruction in his conversation
so kindly that no one else seems to
do.
His yearly visits to this section are
looked forward to as treat to both
old and young He is always accom-
panied by one of his daughters and
more pleasant ladies are seldom if
ever met with.
aRLong may his pen pay tribute to old
times and places is the sincere wish

number of Handsomely decorated
booths in the beautiful grove of oak
trees in which the bazaar was held.
The bazaar opened at p. III. and clos
ed at S D. IL.
The opening address was made by
Rev. I. E. Goodwin, rector of the
church. AT 4 p. III. there was con-
cert i'll the hotel ballroom by the
United States Naval Academy Orches-
ira, Prof Charles A. Zimmerman, di-

Eriendsville Pic Mic.

Saturday, August 18th, was red let
ter day in the little Maryland city on
the 1ough, when large excursion
from Ursina, Confluence, Somerfield
and other stations took advantage of
the excursion rates. The train left
the former station about $50 a. IN.
and the excursiouists enjoyed the day
in most agreeable manner.
Base ball was one Of the principal
features of the day, but several other
amusements were INDUCED in, more
particularly the manly art of self-de-
| tense.
A balloon ascension was on the pro-
gram, but owing to some accident the
balloon burst, burning several very
severely, among the latter being Mr..
Cover, of Connellsville, who had his
face very severely scorched.
The base ball match for which a
prize of fifteen dollars of our daddies
were given, was won by the U. & H.
A. G. by a score of 7 TO 2 defeating Il
Pen-Mar aggregation of players.
The Friendsville residents did all
they could to entertain their visitors.
Among those to whom the excursion
gave the most flattering enconiums,
were Schlossnagle & Mitchell, proprie-
tors of the Crawford hotel, who ap-
peared to know all present and did all
in their power to entertain and give
them every comfort, and also G. L.
Dean and w. D. Collier, who were
also unremittlng in their attentions.
A few incsdents of very amusing
character occurred. Among these
were that of two enthusiastic rooters
who bet FIVE dollars with each other
that the Z. u H. A. G. would win, both
betting on one side. When the game
was over both sides claimed the
stakes and their controversy was al
most as exciting as the Somerset Dor
ough school imbroglio; the matter
ended by both contestants donating
both wagers to the corporation of
Friendsyille, to be expended as the
officials might choose.
The train left at $3.50 p. III, and there
was miniature Manchuria all the
way home, but the casualties were
not very heavy. When some belig-
Grant iggorota chief got obstreperous,
his loved one or mora prrDerlv Soma
one else's loved one, would kiss and
caress him and soothe his angry pas
sions. This proves that kisses are
even more potent than music to
soothe the savage ,breast.-Meyers-
dale Commercial.
