MORE HALL OF FAMERS.
But Still There Are Fifteen Vacancies
For the Elected Truly Great.

But Still There Are firteeh Sacancies
For the Elected Truly Great.
The hall of fame opened strong
yesterday morning and continued
bullish throughout the day. While
on Monday but three names were
added to the rostrum Of immortals,
eight were delivered from everlasting
controversy yesterday. Three OF these
were women. Since the initial bal
loting in 1900 the constitution OF the
hall of fame was amended to admit
famous women. and eight electors,
all scientists, requested that they be
relieved Of the duty Of voting.
A man must be marked at 81 to
enter the hall, while, owing to the
ungallant withdrawal Of the eight
scientists, a woman requires but AZ.
OF the 100 electors six have not an
swered. Whitelaw Reid is one Of
them. ,
John Quincy Adams got So, with
Madison a close second at Sc. Among
the runners up in this class Calhoun
got As, Charles Sumner %, Andrew
Jackson a., Seward 25, Garfield 10
and Blaine IL.
In the septimi there was nothing
doing. Daniel Boone scored the high
est at 35; ]. s. Copley got 25, Com
modore Vanderbilt 9 and John Brown
Z.
Then there came a class Of famous
Americans Of foreign birth. Agassiz
was quoted at 81. John Paul Jones
barely crossed the tape, with 62 to
his credit; Marquette received IA and
Miles Standish and John Smith (the
husband Of Pocahontas) got 3 and
4, respectively. Right here Alexan-
der Hamilton scored the high water
mark of all next to the father Of
his country" with 81. In the after
noon the three famous women got a
panel. They were Mary Lyon. the
founder Of Mt. Holyoke college for
women; Emily Chubback Judson, a
pioneer in women's education In
America and Maria Mitchell. Louisa
Alcott and Charlotte Cushman had
close to the required number. When
the hall Of fame Is built the ballots
will be bound and placed on exhibit
ton. They will be of interest, as they
will have the autographs Of the most
prominent men Of the day In politics,
education, law and literature.
At the last balloting, in 1900,
twenty-nine names were enrolled
among the imperishable, and eleven
have been accepted at, this balloting.
Thus the list is fifteen short Of what
1t should be, as five vacancies are
made every five years, and the origi-
nal number was fifty.
With the completion Of the ballot
ing yesterday afternoon the hall OF
fame was closed for another five
years.-New York Sun.

The Crop Outlook.

Corn continues to grow very
rapidly, and though in many
instances weeds had to be neg
leeted until cultivation is impOS-
sible, color and general outlook
are very encouraging. Early corn
is shooting aud tasseling in all
sections. Oats harvest was ad-
vanced with dispatch IN Northern
Central and Eastern Maryland
to a point very near completion.
In southern counties this crop has
not recovered from the serious
damages administered by heavy
rain after it was cut, while in
Western counties many fields are
!, lodged. Wheat threShing has
Attained an advanced state in
Eastern Maryland, with good
yields aud quality, but in South
ern Maryland wheat results are
very poor, owing to excessive
wetting. What was threshed in
Northern Central counties during
the past week was damp with
fair to good results as regards
quantity. Haying has not yet
been completed, much grass be =

BULL RUN A YEARS AGO.
Last Friday the Anniversary
of Great Confederate Vic
tory.

Forty four years ago last Fri
day, the Dist of July, three
months after the beginning of the
Civil War, the first battle of Bull
Run, or Manassas, was fought,
resulting in an overwhelming
victory for the Confederate forces
and awakening he North to some
conception of the vigor and
strength of the movement in the
South.
In response to the cry of "On
to RichmOndw the Union forces
under General Irwin Mcdowell,
were sent into Virginia, and on
July 10th, McDowell'S army of
10000 men was moved in the
direction of Manassas, where
General Beauregard, at the head
of the Confederate troops, had
established his base with Il
smaller force. The engagement
began on the morning OF Sunday,
July 2lst, and continued until
i'll the evening. In the interval
between the battle and the as
sembling Of the troops the Con
federates had been reinforced by
the command of General Joseph
L. Johnston, which had been
hastily sent up from Winchester
McDowel's army was divided
into three columns, commanded
respectively, by Generals Hunter,
Tyler and HeiUtzelman. Hunter,
in charge Of the right column,
bore down on the Confederates
and after hard fighting dislodged
them from their position. but the
advance of the Union forces was
checked by the stubborn resist
ance Of the brigade under the
command of General Thomas j.
jackson, the determined stand
made by that General earning
for him the sobriquet, which
stuck to him throughout his life.
of "Stonewall" Jackson. Through
the gallant resistance of General
Jackson's brigade the Union line
was neld back until the arrival
of reinfOrcements in the shape
of fresh contingent of General
JOhnstOn's command, under Gen
eral Kirby Smith, turned the
tide of battle against the Fed
erals.
The fresh troops were hurled
upon the flank and rear of Nc
Dowell's army, which was grad
ually forced from the field and
which retreated towards Wash
ingtOn in haste and confusion,
completely demoralized. The Fed
eral loss in killed and wounded
was 1.500, besides 1900 missing.
The total Confederate loss was
about |, 900.

An Argument For an Improv-
ed Road Making System.

AL Hl lAA440A4A L ~ VA 49, - -
ed Road Making System.
Inasmuch as the Legislature
convenes this winter, can't we
have some legislation looking to a
change in our public road system
asks a writer in last weeks issue
of the Thurmont clarion. Those
who are able to speak knowingly
on the subject certainly can see
that the old system has outlived
its usefulness, if it ever were use
lul at all.
Road supervisors are appointed
not so much with regard to their
fitness but as to their politics
both parties are alike in this re-
sppct. Sl2 per mile is levied for
roads indiscriminately, whether
the road need 50 per mile or $50
Supervisors are left to work
their road according to their own
individual Judgment. If he is a
good mana man of good iudg
ment all well and good, if he has
no Judgment, then what! The
road is either worked in haphaz-
zard manner or maybe not work
ed at all. Maybe the water is
turned in the middle Of the road,
and maybe not. The question
naturally arises what can be done
to remedy it! Well that's ques-
ti0u: we have our own views re
garding the matter, and we be.
lleve they could be made to work to
a very much better advantage
than the present system does.
We want competent road engi-
neer to begin with. Then we
want working gangs the same as
are employed on railroads, who
will move from place TO place,
building and repairing the roads
as they are needed. Let the re
pair gangs be equipped with all
the necessary tools, horses, carts,
traction engines, stone CruSher,
road scoops, etc 1t would re
quire a number Of these gangs to
cover the county, not more than /
or 5, possibly not that many
These gangs would make eXtraor-
dinary repairs according to plans
laid down by the engineer; they
would have their instructions to
be guided by and in that way we
would have a uniform system un-
der the direct supervision of a
competent engineer. The argu.
ment against the above plan would
not be as to the expenditure of the
taxpayers money so much, as it
would necessarily take away a
Job from a number of supervisors
under this system. Is there any
thing particularly wrong about
that when we are spending the
taxpayers money for the benefit
of everybody? 1t should be the
greatest good to the greatest mum
Der. Let us hear from some
of our readers on this subject. 1t
may be that some other way would
be better than ours, but so long
as we don't discuss these matters
publicly, we get no nearer the ac.
complishment of something better
than that which we have at pres.
ent.

on but if you havn't them, You
can dry them by pinuiug them to
an old sheet on a carpet in a spare

1t certainly pays one to 90 over
their curtains carefully and mend
every thin place. often haste a
piece of net under the thin places
in lace curtains and it makes them
last twice as long. Before touch
ing the curtains make a hot rain
water sudS and to this suds add a
tablespoonful of bOrax to every
gallon of water and shave half a
bar of white soap and add to it.
Put the curtains in this suds to
soak over night. The next morn
ing wash them through awater pre-
pared as the first; then rinse them
as carefully as possible in two or
three waters.
If you desire to have them white.
blue them a little; if you wish
them cream color or yellow, use a
few tablespoonful ofstrong coffee,
to preserve the yellow tinge.
Muslin or madras curtains or any
kind of fthin material can be wash !.
