late George Slater, OF Baltimore, and
was about ~ years old. For over
forty years, she resided at Hun
ter's Retreat, Medley's Neck, and
was the soul of as hospitable, happy
home as ever existed. She was
kind and generous, ever ready and
willing to lend a helping hand to
those in distress and always seeking
to do some kindly act to cheer those
in affection. She was in truth a
noble, Christian woman, and our
community is better that she has
lived in it and left to it the memory
Oh lie spent so well.
Mrs. Greenwell leaves four child
rem, James ]. Greenwell, OF Balti-
more, G. Bendict G reenwell OF Med
ley's Neck, this county; Sister Eliza

last resting place by a great num-
Der of Borrowing friends who arden
tly joined in Father Lancaster's fer
vent prayer for the happiness of her
soul.

st. Johns Church.

St. Johns Church looks very
pretty since it has been repainted,
and the beauty of the interior will
be greatly enhanced by the stained
glass windows which are being
manufactured in New York. The
congregation is increasing, and the
church is well filed at both Masses
on Sundays.
On Wednesday evening, Nov.
18th, there will be an Oyster and
Turkey Supper and a reception in
the Church Hall. The ladies in
charge are very enthusiastic, and
this promises to be the social event
of the season. Supper will be serv-
ed from 5. to 7.30. Come early to
avoid the rush.
On Thanksgiving Day there will
be Mass at nine o'clock.

ST. INIGO'S ITEMS.

fro'n Our Regular Correspondent
Cupid is active, and so is death.
Sour dispositions are manifested
IN a few of our acquaintances. Do
not flies take more kindly to molasses
than to vinegar.
Listen Music greets our ears,
and For all Eternity" causes the
tears to congregate about the ang giles
OF our eyes. Where shall we spend
our eternity? This is a question
fraught with momentous conse-
quences. We do not believe in the
transmigration of souls. Nolneither
do we believe that the disembodied
spirit wanders about without any
certain dwelling place Has not the
believer in Revelation something
better to hope for country, home,
where the rainbow is without seq
ments-where the cheerless word
if is not found.
Farmers are active. We would
not depr ecate industry on the part
OF anyone, but we will say that lit
tie rest would be beneficial to the
class named, particularly to those
who run to their work.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lewis Rollins. of
Baltimore, are visiting friends of the
district.
Cooks are scarce, and the din of
pots and kettles, the clatter of dishes,
the music of the wash tub, etc., in
the kitchen, made by the tired wife
is not pleasing to the loving hus-
banda husband who loves wisely
and well.
Thieves are rampant. Recently
Mr.. Ernest Bohanan S store was en-
tered and Sis was stolen.
Some sickness and rheumatism is
complained of. The pain is agoniz-
ing, and when the affection becomes
metdstitie it is said by doctors to be
very dangerous.
What mas become Of Uncle Ned Z?
Has he passed out of the shadow
of sadness 2" II such be the case,
we trust that he has passed into the
rapture of rest. AZZANA.

pearance, pushed her way through
J the crowd Of men. remarking IS she
did so:
II you do you win have some
serious obstacles TO overcome while
you are at il.
The ring of determination In her
clear, musical voice caused the men
to believe what she said. Immedi.
ately they closed in about the wo-
man and an attempt was made 10
force her from the edge Of the hole,
which vantage ground she had
gained during the conversation.
With an agility that startled the
men, she wrested herself from the
grasp OF one OF them and darfed into
the hole.
Proceed with your task" she
said as calmly as though she had
been merely preparing breakfast.
For bali an hour the men loitered
about the hole, pleaded viii the. liz
tie woman to permit them to 60 on
with their work, and threatened her
by saying that the pole would be
planted in that spot IL il became
necessary to erect il at midnight.
But she calmly held her fort, and
the men finally went to the corner
Of Pine and Franklin streets and
proceeded to plant one there.
Mrs. Guy then called q negro who
was passing and paid him % cents
to throw the dirt back into the hole
that she had been occupying, and
she is now holding q conspicuous
position on her front steps guarding
the spot lest the men return.
The pole shall not be placed in

Bay.

BAY.
A pole war is now waging on West
Franklin street, near Pine, that
threatens to assume serious proper
tions at any minute. Although
thirty-five husky men, 10 oyeralls
and boots, armed with shovels and
picks, are arrayed against a lone
woman, the latter is holding her
fort valiantly and resisting every
attack OF the enemy.
During the last few weeks the
Maryland Telephone and Telek raph
Company distributed huge telegraph
poles at intervals OF 100 yards along
Franklin street from Pearl street to
Fremont avenue. The residents
along that street naturally anticipat-
ed that the poles we're to be erected,
and, although no one knew lust
whose front view would be obstruct-
de, many of them decided TO make a
determined fight against the poles
being erected in front Of their re-
spective homes. A pole had been
placed along the curbing several
yards west of Mrs. Mamie Read
mond Guys residence, at 665 West
Franklin street, but, believing that
the pole would be planted where ii
was placed, she gave the matter lit
tie thought. This morning, how
ever, when she walked to the front
of her basement. about 8. 30 O'Clock.
she noticed gang of men removing
the pavement and digging a hole
just in front Of her parlor window.
For a moment she could scarcely
realize what was going on. Then
she recalled the poles. AS quickly

Emulsion offers a reliable

William Lush, the Cleveland American
league player who coached the Yale base
ball team this season, has signed a con-
tract to act as the Yale base ball coach
for the next three years. The amount Of
his salary is not stated. Lush has recently
received offers to return TO Cleveland and
also to 80 to the New York Americans
The fact that he has been engaged by Yale
for a comparatively long term Is regarded
as permanently committing the university
10 the policy tried for the first time last
year, OF having a professional coach re-
main with the team throughout the season.

While the end is yet afsr or. and many
things may happen In the two months stfl
left to play, II begins to look as IL the
team that wins that Western pennant has
TO beat Des Moines. The antiques who
make up the backbone OF that organiza-
tion are lasting much better than anyone
has right to expect they would. while
THE youngsters who surround them are
playing ball as II they liked to, and not
because they have to or work for a living.
Denver has been a disappointment SO far,
although the fans out there insist that
the team has struck its gait and is now
on for the pennant. Three weeks ago II
looked as II Denver would be in the lead
et this date, but It will take a month OF
good playing to land the Grizzlies in first
place now, and at that Des Moines will
have TO take the slump that doesn't seem
10 be IN sight. Omaha Is the only team
that has been able to do any business
