New York, Dec 4-The E5s theatrical
,sofession is greatly worried over a, jul
iicial decision just handed down, which
folds that a Vaudeville performer may
lot recover damages for breach of con-
ract when the agreement called for
sunday performances, since all Sunday
exhibitions are contrary to law. Any
contract entered into for Sunday per-
orinance must be considered null and
roid.
The ease in which this decision was
endered is that Of Fred Hallen, an ac-
or, against Thompson & Dundy, pro-
rietors of the Colonial Music hall, for
he recovery Of $500 damages for al
eyed breach Of contract. The evidence
howed that Mr.. Hallen agreed to ap-
tear at the Colonial Music hall, He
sserted that Thompson g.; Dundy
'efore the completion of his contract
allied for his resignation, and upon his
efusal discharged him, asserting that

Rev. W. B. Riley, pastor of the First

limitations and boxing in his sermon on
college Crimes delivered last night.
He passed over the death of a naval
cadet in a fistfight, and the initiation
accident at Kenyon college with slight
notice and devoted the greater portio:,

There is not sport enough possible to
the student body of America to pay for
one human life he said. There is no
argument conceivable to sound mind
that justifies an institution which starts
thousands Of men gambling. There are
no gate receipts big enough to pay for

debauch that characterized our downtown,

THE FISHING CREEK FARM SOLD
r. G. CLANCY, New Owner, VIII
Make Many improvements
At The Place.

After laying vacant and practically
untenanted for period of nearly
fifteen years, the famous and beautiful
old Fishing Greek farm, which was
recently purchased by Mr.. r. G.. Cha
ney. of this city, will, eer another
twelve months rolls by. be transform
ed into one of the most attractive
waterside country places in this county
MIR. Chaney, the new owner, is a..
ready laying his plans for the rehabil-
itation of the property, and while
nothing in the way of extensive prep
arations will be taken up this fall. the
place will be cleared of nearly quar-
ter century's growth of scrub brush
and fenced in with modern poultry,
sheep and other animal proof fencing.
The intention of the new owner is to
make the farm not only one of the
finest in the county in point of fur
ther enhancing its natural beauty by
the erection Of a handsome twelve
room dwelling Of modern type and
handsome architecture. but will also
make the farm paying venture.
The intention is to turn the three
hundred acres into a stock farm, en-
which the principal stock raised will
be sheen and lambs, for nearby mar
breeding fancy sheep bnt merely to
produce good mutton and lamb. The
land is slightly rolling and already
had a good stand Of fine grass, which
will be a big factor in sheep raising.
In addition TO this Mr. CLANCY will
make use of the mile and a-haf Of ex-
cellent water front for ducking pur-
poses, Fishing creek being famous AZ
a well known feeding place Of these
denizens of the air and water. An
other feature of the farm which will
/ be conducted ON the most approved
| and up.to- date business principles. will
/ be the establishment of a large poul-
/ try raising business. This part OF
i the enterprise will also cater to near
| by markets.
The farm Is we'll known and al
| though of late years it has been poorly
cared for, it is one of the best ia
| point of soil and natural advantages
in addition to its magnificent and
| uniformly healthy situation and ma
tural beauties. IL is situated on the
south side OF Fishing creek, near the
head of this body of water, which in
| turn empties into South river just at
the larger streams junction with the
| bav. The farm really joins the peDin-
suiar making out to Thomas Point on
one side and the point on which it Is
| situated Arundel on. the. Bay on tho
other. In addition to the other ma
tural advantages it is we'll situated
for the planting of oysters and when
improved according TO the present
plans of Mr.. Chaney, will be triply
enhanced in value anu one of the most
TO be desired farms anywhere about
this section.

Exploded Railroad Blast.

What might easily have been SER
ious accident occurred on West street
this morning through the careless or
malicious handling of a railroad blast
ing cartridge. The blast, which had
possibly been stolen from one Of the
railroad shops in town, had been
placed in the middle of West street.
The wagon of II. II. Magruder a. Go.
rolled over the missile, which, upon
coming in violent contact with the
iron rim of the wheel, exploded.
The explosion was loud and created
a good deal of smoke. Fragments of
the tin casing of the cartridge struck
the horse hitched 10 the wagon and
cut him in several places The affair
caused considerable excitement until
the cause was learned as at first it was
thought that someone had discharged
pistol.
