inee for senator from Howard county
and won the election by one of the
largest maiorities ever received by
any Democratic candidate.
During the session of 1904 he took
no very active part on the floor OF tho
senate. His record during the next
session, 1906, exceeded the hopes OF
even his most sanguine friends. Hay-
ing made a careful study of the legIs-
lative game, he at once assumed tho
leadership and held the place through
some of the most bitter fights ever
fought in Maryland's Legislative halls
The greatest service NE rendered
the state was the passage of reso-
luton. offered by himself. for the in
gestigatlon of the affairs OF the Bal
timore & Ohio Railroad company.
This resulted In complete rout OF
the corporation legislators and the
gain by the state OF $2,500.000 for It's
holdings in the property of the road
and reduced the state taxes from %
cents to 16 cents on the hundred dob
lars.
When he introduced this resolution
his critics intimated that he was not
serious In the matter. but his strenu-
GUS defense Of the measure on tbs
floor of the senate and Its final pas
sage put them to shame.
To-day Marylanders speak Of him
as the stronest possibility for the
toga among the younger men of tho
state, irrespective of politics or party.

FEAST OF ASSUMPTION.
Will Be Observed in Catholic
Churches Wednesday.

The feast of the Assumption of the
Virgin Mary, festival of obligation
in the Roman Catholic church, win
be observed on Wednesday by all
Catholic churches. The feast of the
Assumption is observed by both the
western and eastern churches. In the
seventh century there originated
the idea that the soul and body OF
Mary had been carried up to heaven
by Christ and the angles The. Romsn
Catholic church has since that period
kept the 18th of August in memory of
Mary's translation into glory, al
though from the fourth century until
the seventh century the church had
kept the same day in memory of the
death of the Virgin. Liguori, in his
"Glory of Mary, gives very minnie
account of the circumstances of her
assumption.
