Chrysanthemum Tea.

One of the most enjoyable as well
as successful affairs of it's kind, was
the Chrysanthemum Tea held
Jointly by the Sunday school and
Epworth League, Wednesday eve
ming, in the lecture room of the
M. E. church. The decorations
displayed much artistic taste, the
popular "mum" being everywhere
in evidence on tables, booths, and
about the room. the whole present
ing a harmonious and pleasing
effect, with the charming mattresses
fitting to and fro, placing before
their patrons the daintily served
and appetizing menu, whose ex-
cellence reflected consummate skill
in the culinary art.
The supper was served from 5
to s O'Clock and was so generously
patronized as to completely exhaust
the larder and swell the gross re-
ceipts to $50. The net proceeds,
about $50, will be devoted to pay
ment of the debt incurred in
improvements to the Suday school
room, more than the required
amount having been realized.

Exciting Runaway.

Gilbert SINNERS and Miss Clara
Brumfeld, of Colora, while return
ing from meeting of the Ebenezer
Social Club on Saturday night, had
an exciting few minutes on reach
ing the railroad crossing in this
town. Mr.. SINNERS was driving a
spirited pair of colts, and just as
the crossing was reached at the
station, the end of the tongue slip
ped from the neck yoke, and was
broken, the horses taking fright
and running up Queen street.
When near the residence of Sher-
man Clayton the broken tongue
struck some obstruction in the
street and caused the vehicle to
swerve into the gutter, throwing
both occupants out, the young lady
escaping injury. The driver
pluckily retained his hold on the
lines and was dragged hundred
yards or more by the horses, which
had freed themselves from the
runabout, finally managing to
check them in front of William
Reeder's, who hastily dressed and
went to the young mans assistance.
An investigation of the damage
showed a broken carriage tongue,
sundry cuts and bruises about the
person of Mr.. SINNERS, and his
clothing damaged beyond repair.
A carriage tongue was secured at
one of the liveries in town, and
the young man proceeded to his
home, the young lady deciding to
remain with relatives in town after
the exciting experience, which,
luckily was not fraught with more
serious consequences.

Gun For Target Practice.

The armory of Company E, First
Maryland Regiment, at Elkton, has
been supplied with one of the sub,
target guns, with which the mem.
bers will practice target shooting
for several weeks. The gun is
made up of a regulation army rifle,
mounted on a stand by means of
universal joints, permitting the
rifle to be brought to the shoulder
without interference. When the
barrel is sighted and the trigger
pulled, an electric needle punctures
a spot on a miniature target
mounted on the stand, showing
exactly where a bullet fired from
the rifle would have struck the real
target at two hundred, three hun,
dred or five hundred yards. as the
gun may have been set. The novel
apparatus enables the soldier to
practice craftsmanship without the
necessity for a long range or the
waste of ammunition.-Democrat
