HARNESS FELL ON HEAD
William White Is Rendered
Unconscious BY The
Heavy Blow.

A rather painful accident befell Mr..
William White at the Independent fire
station last evening, and as a result
he wassrendered unconscious for some
little time. The accident occurred
during the regular evening practice of
the horses.
No one else was injured, but the
presence of the horses which were
loose on the floor might have added
to the occurrence. Since the installa-
tiun of the drop harness at the station
it has been the nightly habit to drill
the horses in running under the har-
ness, being hitched and then returned
TO their stalls. Last night when the
horses were released from their stalls
and Mr.. White was standing under the
harness waiting to make the hitch,
the spreader of iron, on which the
harness is held suspended. broke from
its fastening and struck him on the
head.
Mr.. White was knocked TO the floor
and rendered unconscious. Bystanders
rushed to his assistance and carried
him to one side. Mr.. Charles Rus
sell, who was present, and who made
the spreader, played doctor with such
good results that Mr.. White soon re-
covered consciousness, but little the
worse for his experience.

UNPOPULAR OR POPULAR
Deputy Sheriff James Crawford
Clearing Germantown
of Rowdyism.

A great deal of complaint is being
made by persons who happen to COM
nit depredations in Germantown and
vicinity and who are gathered in by
Deputy Sheriff James Crawford, who
is special police of that neighborhood.
1t was learned by the most prominent
residents of that neighborhood that
many persons who curse and act in q
generally disorderly manner on the
road have made complaints at being
arrested.
Heretofore such things have been
permitted without an effort being
made to prevent them and they think
it an abridgment of their inalien-
able rights TO curtail their swearing
procliyities. The residents of Ger
mantown, however, have risen to the
defense of Deputy Crawford and ha re
prepared a testimonial in his behalf,
which will be presented in the event
of any effort being made to prevent
him enforcing the law.
A we'll known resident of that neigh
borhood, in speaking of the matter,
stated this morning that the rowdyism
which existed along the shell road
some time since has entirely disap-
peared Last summer it was impos-
sible for the residents in the neighbor-
hood of the National Cemetery to sit
on their front porches with any de-
gree of pleasure, such were the actions
of persons passing along the road.

HELD ENTHUSIASTIC MEETING
TAXPAYERS ASSOCIATION
IN SESSION TODAY.
Listen to The Reading of The
Report of The President And
Pass Resolution.

An enthusiastic and husinesslike meet
ing of the Taxpayers Association of
Anne Arundel county was that which
was held today IN the court room of
the court house. 1t was the largest
attended meeting of the body since its
inception and resulted in what prom
ises Co be a great benefit TO the taxpay-
ers of the county.
Many new members were added to
the roll and practically all of the orig
inal or charter members were present
The discussions were of a most inter
esting nature and outside of any i'm
mediate good which has or may be ac-
complished by the body the express
sions of opinion which were heard in
dictate that much thought is given TO
the subject of county taxes Presi-
dent George i. Melvin was requested
by the organization TO read his ad-
dress containing the principles of the
association and what il was desired TO
accomplish. The reading was accom-
panied by the closest attention and
frequently applauded.
In his address President Melvin set
forth the many reasons why Anne
Arundel county should have greater
agricultural success and recognition
than it has He enumerated the many
ways in which the success and stand
ing of its residents could be enhanced
and elaborated on the manner in
which the affairs of the county could
or should he managed in order that all
should be taxed and receive benefits
on an equitable basis. The address,
which was pregnant with many good
speaking and argumentative points
was brief but thorough and showed
great care in its preparation. 1t was
unanimously adopted and request
made that it be published in the local
papers.
Various matters were discussed per-
tanning to the good and welfare of the
residents of the county and the city.
The expressions of opinion of many
of the most prominent men of the
county were heard and will be added
to the general fund of knowledge
which will later stand the members of
the association in good stead One
of the most important resolutions in
troduced at the meeting was that by
Mr.. II. l.. Shipley. 1t contained the
authorization of the presidents of
the various election districts of the
county to form in their respective dis
tricts locals to be affiliated with the
main association. The resolution car
ried with it the recommendation that
a copy of the constitution and bylaws
and the presidents address be fur
nished each council.
The resolution was unanimously
adopted and the vice presidents were
instructed to renOrt at the next meet
ing of the association, which Will be
held on January %, the result of their
labors. They will report at that time
the membership they have been en-
abled to secure and any other matter
having to do with the success of the
undertaking. The locals will hold
meetings separate and distinct from
the meetings of the association itself,
but will have representation in the
main body. to which it will appoint
delegates or else be represented by the
vice president of the association over
the district in which it is located

TELEPHONE SERVICE.
st. Mary's, Charles And Prince
George Counties Have Local
And Long Distance
Connection

The Southern Maryland Telephone
Company has closed a contract with
the Chesapeake & Potomac Telephone
Company by which the latter company
will meet it at Brandywine, in Prince
George county, aid give it coDnec-
tion with its lines and with the lines
of the American Telephone and Tele-
graph Company, through the exchange
at Upper Marlboro.
The Southern Maryland Telephone
Company has agreed to use the instru
ments and apparatus of the Chesapeake
Company, and thus become, through
this connection, virtually a part of
the great telephone system covering
the whole country. The Southern
Maryland Company is already operat-
ing exchanges at Leonardtown, Me.
chanicsyille and Charlotte Hall, and
in the near future expects to open ex-
changes at La Plata, Brandywine and
other points. Early in the coming
spring il is the intention TO extend
the line south to Point Lookout, and
westward TO La Plata and all Potomac
river points.
BY this combination. Southern
MARYLAND is assured of connection
with Washington, which means so
much TO those people living along the
Potomac. 1t is stated that there will
be direct trunk lines to Washington,
Baltimore and Annapolis, from
which places connection can be had
with all points. As the Southern Mary
land Telephone Company is in the
hands of progressive, up-to date men,
the outlook is exceptionally bright for
a complete and up to date telephone
development of all the Southern Ooun-
ties of Maryland. Both parties are
building toward Brandywine. and the
connection should be established with
in n few weeks, if there is any favor.
able weather.
1t is understood that negotiations are
also under way between the Southern
Maryland Company and the Chesa-
peake Company for the leasing of the
latter's lines in Calvert county, which
will allow of very complete develop
ment of the service by local interests.
