very little sickness and comparatively few fatal
tiles have resulted. The work of installation OF
the plant and Of the organization of the force at
Culebra is advancing rapidly and each month
the output Of material is increasing. The work
of the sanitary department is beginning to show
very positive results Water supply systems

line of the canal work. Several large hotels for
the accommodation of the Americans are nearly
completed and the employees are becoming more
and more contented

One of the latest survivors of the
d-time country editors died in this
State about 20 years ago. He was
sole editor and part owner of one of
the very best and most prosperous
country papers in Maryland. This
man set type, printed sale bills on a
hand press, wrote all the local news
for his paper and all the editorials.
The editorials did not abound in
classic illusions. there was no
rhetoric and few figures of speech.
but they told the Il brief and
simple words and in the most direct
and forcible manner the ideas the edi-
tor wished to convey. They were
forceful and able, and that ma

But-he never used his power for his
own benefit, and it never occurred to
him to hold an Office. He also wrote
all the local news for his paper, usu-
ally comprised in three or four COL
umns a week. The stories were told
simply, without any link Singing or
any Introductory chapters such as we
often see these days. In addition to
all these things he read the exchanges
and selected the loye story, the Jokes
and the miscellaneous matter for the
outside" At one time during the
Civil War his paper had circulation
of >, 800 copies, which the editor print
ed on Washington hand press, max
ing 5000 impressions. 1t took several
days to do this, and the incessant pull
ing of the lever made him almost
humpback. With all this labor the
editor had time to take conspicuous
part in affairs. He was director in
national bank and attended the
meetings regularly. He presided at
political meetings, was consulted up
on all important matters by the coun-
ty commissioners, took part in church
affairs and discussed politics and the
crops with his patrons when they
came to pay their subscriptions. He

KICKED IN FACE BY HORSE.
Mr.. Louis Bush, Of EglOn, Seriously
Injured Monday.

Mr.. Louis Bush, of Eglon, well
known and highly respected by many
Oakland people, was kicked in the
face on last Monday afternoon by one
of his horses, resulting in the fracture
ofsboth his upper and lower jaws and
cheek bone, and rendering him I'M
conscious for more than twenty hours,
His physicians feared that his SIX
had also been fractured and as a re-.
suit his death was momentarily ex-
pected. Happily however, the latter
injury was not inflicted and now
hopes are entertained for his recovery
Mr.. E. j. Frlnger, his brother-in-law,
went to Eglon upon receipt of the in
telligence of his relatives injury
where he will remain several days.
