that out of eight hundred students two
of the eleven players should have come
from Maryland.
Mr.. Charles L. Vail returned on last
Friday from trip to North Carolina.
: While in the state he spent week in the
camp of the Coharie Lumber Company
and was highly pleased with the COM
pleteness of its plant and the favorable
location ofits large tract of timber. On
the 9th of November Manager Clements
wrote, The mill has been running all
day with very satisfactory results, the
machinery all seems to be able to handle
its work in a good, efficient manner and
is highly encouraging"
Mr.. J. Harry Lytle. Of the Democrat
and Journal published in Towson, who
years ago acquired his knowledge of the
printers craft in the 1Egis Office, recently
] visited our county where in the vicinity
OF the Rocks he reduced to possession a
| bag full of animals ferae naturae much to
the chagrin of our less successful local
sportsmen. We always knew that Balti-
more county politicians were death to
certain sort of game, but their talent ex-
tends further than we had heretofore
given them credit for.
Mr.. Bertram Stump and Mr. c.
Bosley Littig have written to the Board |
of County Commissioners, urging that |
prompt attention be given to the road |
leading from Emmorton to Edgewood |
via VanBibber. They state that serious
holes already exist which will soon !
render the road impossible when winter
sets in if not promptly attended to, and |
that they together with Messrs. E. E.
Touchton, Louis DeGoll and others will |
substantially assist the Board towards
crawling the necessary parts.
Hartford patrons of the Maryland
phone will be gratifed to learn that its
merger with the Chesapeake, as indicat-
ed ten days ago, will not be accomplish
ed. After merger became possible
through its purchase by interests friendly
to the Chesapeake, the latter sought to
drive too good bargain and it was sold
for $500. 600 to purchaser whose name
has not yet been disclosed but who I'M
hesitatingly asserts that it will be con.
tinued and developed as an independent
system. In this case competition is the
life of trade
The Hartford Medical Society met at
Eagle Hotel on Friday of last week. The
address was made by DR.. Mccormack,
of Kentucky, who spoke of the danger to
the public of unqualified men practising
medicine. He said that the county So
ciety should furnish the opportunity to
every man who joined it to keep abreast
of what is learned in medicine and so
make it worth while for every physician
in the county to attend the meetings.
Doctors Sappington, VanBibber and
Page were appointed to investigate a
system of post graduate work to be
given by the society. Those present at
the meeting were Doctors Mccormack,
Archer, Baglev, Carcaud. Fuford, Hol-
lingsworth, Hughes, Page. Richardson,
Sappington and VanBibber Election of
officers will be held the second Wednesday }

DIR. Armfeld F. VanBibber, in a letter
to Mr. T. c. Galbreath, revie wing his re-
cent publication on Chasing the Cure in
Colorado" says: II take pleasure in
personally endorsing it in the strongest
way. In my opinion the greater circula-
ton it gains among all the thoughtful
and intelligent classes of every commu-
nifty, the better it will be for humanity.
1t is through such readable, sympathetic
and inspiring channels that the truth
that is so necessary to disseminate can
best reach and take hold of peoples
minds. You have done great and good
work, in my opinion, for the cause of hu-
mainly; a work that may even in the
providence of God show the justification
for all your trouble and misfortune, so it

all can in my limited field of usefulness
to promote it"
AT the poultry show held at Dallas

Mr.. ]. L. Mccormick narrowly es-
capped dangerous accident on Saturday
which could easily have been fatal. |
While entering his buggy in front of the
Hartford Mutual Fire Insurance Com
pany's Office he suddenly began to smell
the fumes of sulphur and to see smoke
arising, apparently from his person.
While diligently seeking the cause, Secre-
tary Cairnes rushed out and sho wed him
that his coat was on fire. He had I'M
consciously placed in his pocket few days
before small box of matches a party
had handed him and these had become
ignited, had burnt two holes through
his pocket and singed his cloth coat. 1t

the beam from his own eye before con-
sidering the mote in his brothers eye

ton of his own personal property before
