car, but somehow he managed to squeeze
by without injury.
The three cars that had finished the full
course were weighed after the contest was
called of, as we're the Pope-Toledo and
Christie. Lyttle did not know he had quail
fed for the team and the weighing in oom-
mittee had to telephone to his quarters at
Bulls Head for him to come to the scales.
He was asked TO tell Christie to come along,
too, and finally showed up, towing his "
racer and Christie's behind a touring car.
Tracy's car weighed 2,219 pounds, the
maximum allow ed with a magnetic; lie
Blon's machine was a pound lighter than
the winning Looomobile, while both Hard
ing andLyttle's racers weighed 2, 1875 pounds.
The Christie scaled at 1 ,se5, which included
a detachable rim and full supply tanks.
Frank Lawwell took his Frayer-Miller
No. ? over to be weighed, as the Prayer
Miller concern intended to enter a formal
protest against the Pope-TOledo, asserting
that it had broker down just about the time
the race was called OF. TIE Frayer-Miller
delegation is very anxious to have a car in
the final il possible. They say that their
car would have been able to finish the race
and that such was 70 the case with the
Pope-Toledo, according to jealous paTtisans
of the air cooled firm.
Tracy averaged 6.4 miles during his
victorious race over the Nassau county
course.

WASHINGTON, Sept. 22.-Samuel Bland
Arnold, one Of the men convicted OF COM
plicity in the plot to assassinate Abraham
Lincoln, died on Friday at the home Of his
si~ster-in-law, Mrs. Helen 7. Arnold, at
Waverly, Md. Arnold Acknowledged that
he had been concerned In several plots
to abduct Mr.. Lincoln and carry him In
side the Confederate lines, but he always
denied that he was a party to the assassinA-
ton plot. He was sentenced to life i'm
prisonment In the Albany renitentiary,
but afterwRrd was transferred to Dry
TortuRas. He was ultimately pardoned.
Most Of his life since then was spent or his
farm at Fair Haven, in Anne Arunde county,
Md. A fractured leg sent him to Johns
Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore and shortly
thereafter he contracted consumption,
the cause Of his death. ~.
Arnold became a recluse after his re-
lease from prison and seldom had deal
ings with his n~eighbors. A diary which
he kept in the Dry Tortugas was intended
to be published after his death, but he
was persuaded 10 permit a ne wspaper

with charges OF cruel treatment. Arnold
will be buried at Green Mount Cemetery,
Baltimore, where the Booth family has a
plot, and where John Wilkes Booth Ii sup
posed by many to be inferred. Only one
Of the Lincoln conspiratOrs, John Surratt,
is surviving.

Apples as Medicine.

A good, ripe, raw apple is one of the
easiest of vegetable substances for the
stomach to deal with; the entire process
of digestion being accomplished in 50
minutes. There are medicinal proper
ties in the acid of the apple that are not
found anywhere else, according to hy-
gienic analysis. These acids are of
great value for people of sedentary
habits, whose livers are sluggish, serv-
ing as they do to eliminate from the
body noxious matters that, retained,
make the brain heavy and duh, or bring
on jaundice and skin eruptions. The
apple also contains a larger percentage
of phosphorus than any other fruit OF
vegetable, and this is admirably adap-
ted for renewing the essential nervous
matter of the brain and spinal cord.

La Crosse Chronicle: Repr e5entative
Esch has made an important suggestion
to the board of regents of the Univer-
sity Of Wisconsin. He proposes that
Wisconsin shall take the lead in the
manufacture of denatured alcohol, a
new industry with tremendous POSSIBLE
tiles for which congress paved the way
by legislation enacted during it's last
session. Wisconsin soil and the Wiscon-
sin climate are admirably adapted for
the production of the raw materials
from which alcohol may be made.
Among these are potatoes and certain
varieties of beets, which grow here
abundantly with minimum of cultiva
ton. But a prime essential in the de-
velopment of the alcohol industry is ed
ucation in the method Of converting
these products of the soil into an article
of commerce that can be marketed all
over the world, and which is expected
to revolutionize many important lines of
industry.

Wounds, Bruises and Burns.

By applying an antiseptic dressing to
wounds, bruises, burns and like injuries
before inflammation sets in, they may
be healed without maturation and in
about oEe-t third the time required by the
old treatment. This is the greatest dis
covery and triumph of modern surgery.
Chamberlain Pain Balm acts on this
same principle. 1t is an antiseptic, and
when applied to such injuries, causes
them to heal very quickly. 1t also al
lays the pain and soreness and prevents
any danger of blood poisoning Keep a
bottle of Pain Balm in your home and it
will save you time and money, not to
speak of the inconvenience and suffer
ing such injuries entail. For sale by

CONGRESSMAN BabcOCk.

This gentleman spent the greater
part of Tuesday in Mineral Point. Aside
from shaking hands with callers his
time here was spent in visiting a few
of our business men and inspecting
some of the mines within the city linn
its. These mines proved quite interest
ing to the congressman, and he express
ed surprise over the fact that what he
saw was the result Of less than a year S
labor in mine development. This sign
of activity, together with other marked
improvements in our city since Mr..
Babcock's last visit here forced him to
frankly concede Mineral Point to be a
wide-awake, progressive town, keeping
well abreast with other sections Of the
country
Being again in the field for reelection
it is to be presumed, of course, that Mr..
Babcock is looking after his political
fences, SO to speak; but in the brief
converse with a Tribune reporter poll
ties were omitted, other than that he
was pleased with the expressed conf
dence the people still have in the Re-

NIhaf Is the Meaning Of II?

Ex-Governor Hoard.
There is great struggle going on at
present in the judgment and conviction
of American society. 1t is process of
disqualification, the taking on of 9 new
meaning of the words, American civil
ization. In word it is struggle or
evolution in the hearts and minds of the
people towards a higher, broader, more
patriotic attitude in government.
The construction of American society
hitherto has been Oh the basis of law
less liberty. The liberty to make money
on the part of individuals, partnerships
or corporations with but little regard to
public welfare, or public tendencies.
This has led to a widespread debauch-
ment of public morals. The old fash
Toned virtues Of honesty. patient indus
try, frugalitv, impregnable character,
have been thrown TO the winds in this
mad race for riches. This has led to
the great abuses of corporate power
against which the conscience and iudg-
ment of the people has been SO rapidly
crystallizing. Through the agency Of
corporations has come the debauchment
of political parties, municipal and state
governments, and a dangerous lowering
of the standards Of right and wrong in
the hearts of the people. The excuse
for it all has been money, more money.

laws passed by the last session of the
General Assembly of Maryland. These
laws. occupying about rs columns of
space, We're selected for publication by
the Governor and the Attorney-General
of this State, and we have issued them
on seperate sheet in order that they
may be convenient for filing away for
future reference. Most of these laws
are important and should be carefully
read by our subscribers. We beg to
call especial attention to the labor law,
bearing on the employment of children,
so that if any Of our readers are affected
in any way they may take cognizance
of it. There are also chapters relating
TO the school children, which parents
and guardians should be familiar with,
and many other laws of great impor-
lance which should be perused by our
subscribers.
