! Again, as the birds are, singing
/ their morning melodies, we are up at
5 a m, June 14th, 1904, casting about
for items, for as June is almost half
gone, and the first part-one rain aE
ter another-the time has flown
away, and to us this most glorious
/ month of the year is rapidly passing
away and in a few weeks the glad
and festive 4th of July will be here,
and when we think of the last 4th,
and then think, what changes one
short fleeting year has made in
many homes of this fair land by the
| grim monster, who.has invaded the
home in the humber walks of lite.
1t has invaded the homes of the rich
and called to their final account in
our own land more of our prominent

any one year in the history of our
! country.
! Col. w. E. Burwell is at his Office
at the famous Deer Park Hotel, guild
/ ing and directing affairs in his usual
western style and push, and all in
dications point to successful season.
If push and vim are necessary in con-
Quoting first class hotel, then you
may be sure this famous resort will
in the future be more of success,
than in the past.
! We find in taking a little ramble
I of a few days oyer the county that a
spirit of improvement is abroad
among our farmers. Especially is
this so in the North Glade locality of
Garrett county. New barns are going
uD, fish dams for private use, well
painted churches, and school houses,
and cheerful greeting by all old
friends of years gone by, made us
feel like boy again, as IN the good
old ante bellum days. Especially
was this SO when we entered the
hospital home of good kind Lloyd
McRobie with all his worldly weak
ness land we all have them. He has
a great, generous, kind heart, and
his home is presided over in the alb
sence of his wife by his daughter.
I A few DAYS ago, when the writer was

home (after getting lost on different
occasion. among the saw mill roads of
this lumber region, by this bright
young lady and the rich viands was
enjoyed-for ride among the pines

have the pleasure of seeing our friends
at Deer Park soon when we can, like
him, say come again, the latch string
is always out and the granary never
locked on your tired horse" Good.
kind Lloyd, l would rather have
your disposition then all the ill-got-
ten gains of some even in Garrett
county that thinks they are far
superior. But few 'feeting years
and the sweet by and by will reveal,
who will have the seat highest in that
City not made with hands"
Our genial friend and neighbor,
Mr.. Hennen of the b. & o. Railroad,
outside of his profession as an en-
gineer, is one of the neatest gardeners
in our town. 1t looks like our friend
should have been farmer. which is
the happiest life of all the many vo-
cations of earning living, and this
grand man is too fair specimen of
manhood to be dominated over by
this grasping monopoly.
We were surprised and panied in
looking over the Grant County Press,
published at Petersburg, w. Va,
that our old friend ond comrade
Benjamin Wotring, late of Bayard,
and in bushes at Sang Run the past
few years, had died on 25th of Nav
last at Hendrix on the w. Va. C. g.

this comrade since we wore the
Grey and fought our battles over,
but the gay and exciting ride into
Cumberland on February 21st, 1865,
when with GA men, we entered city
guarded by 5000 infantry and 1000
cavalry and gave Genl's. Crook and
