est exposition the world has ever
seen, We feel that our state has just
cause for pride in the fact that it has
contributed in no Small degree to the
marvellous success of that StupendOuS
undertaking, and that it has done its
full duty as part of the grand EN-.
pre- whose acquisition the Louisiana
Purchase exposition was designed to
commemorate.
All of the ST. Louis exhibits de-
signed for the Lewis and Clarke eX-
position to be held at Portland have
already gone forward and an agent of
the commission is now on the ground
to receive them. 1t is the intention
of the commission to add such new
and available material as may be nee
essary and can be secured for the
Portland exhibits.
The appropriation for the Lewis
and Clarke exposition is $4,000. This
sum is not sufficient to enable the
commission to erect a state building.
| We shall therefore have to be content
| to make our display at Portland in
| the regularly designated exposition
! buildings, foregoing the pleasure and
comforts of a building of our own, as
we enjoyed at ST. LOUIS.
Additional $4,000 Needed.
| In the present condition of the
state treasury we hesitate to suggest
further appropriation. However. af
ter careful consideration of the sub
| ject. the executive committee is of the
opinion that the sum available fol-
Portland will be insufficient to prop
erly add to. install. care for and re-
turn our exhibits, and that an addi
tional sum of $4,000 should be appro
priated for this purpose.
THE sum appropriated for the ex
position at ST. Louis was $4,000. This
was a generous allowance. but in out
lining the work desired to be accom-
plished the commission found that the
most rigid economy would be neces
Sary.

At the First NJ. E. Church yester-

nreached in the morning from the
text Blessed be God. even the Father
of our Lord Jesus Christ. the Father
of all mercies and the God Of all Com
fort: who comforts as in All our tribu-
lations that we may be able to comfort
them which are in any trouble by the
comfort wherewith we ourselves are
comforted of God. +" Second Corin-
thians, 18th chapter and third and
fourth verses.
The leading thoughts were The
way of tribulation was the path OF
saints of the past and of the present.
Tie world was a world of trouble TO
ft Christians for the world TO come.
Ii is q great blessing to be able to help
someone, especially someone IN
trouble. Our present Affections are
only for q brief interval. Paul sought
relief thrice from the thorn in the
flesh. God did not give him RELIEF,
but he obtained grace TO bear the
affiiction. AT night the regular month
ly musical service was held, and an
address on Frederick w. Faber was
made. The conference year will enc
in three weeks.

Shoveling Snow

The farmers Of the Third district
are the men behind the shovel. They
have banded themselves together to
clear the county road of snow, which
in some places is piled five and six
feet high. The road leading from
Broad Neck, below st. Margaret's, in
the Third district, to Spranklin's
farm, is in a fearful condition and
almost impossible at some places.
The industrious farmers who travel
this way have armed themselves with
shoyels and for the past few days have
worked at shoyeling snow instead OF
planting grain. They have succeeded
in clearing a mile or two, bat there
are several miles yet to uncover
Some of those engaged in clearing the
road are Mr.. Stallings, Mr.. A. A..
Stinchcomb, Mr.. Thomas Arnold, Mr.
Gordon Stallings, Mr.. Elijah Arnold /.
Mr.. Robert Stinchcomb, Mr.. George
Barchet and the Duvall Brothers.

Eggs Cheaper

Eggs that have been selling for 30.
3S and 40 cents per dozen for many
weeks, have taken drop in price
On Saturday eggs were selling here for
30 cents and in Baltimore for 30 cents
a dozen. These declines, while abrupt,
caused no particular surprise among
the trade and, in fact. we're expected,
in view of the improved weather con-
ditions and the opening of navigation.
Boat receipts Of eggs in Baltimore
Saturday were unusually large. and
with the continuance of mild weather
further free arrivals by boat, as well
as by car, are looked for in that city.
Choice nearby eggs in the wholesale
market Saturday sold at "a cents to
20 cents a dozen. The near approach
of Lent may have something to do
with the drop in price of eggs.
