And there you have it. Everybody who
went to the Maud Junction pavilion was
satisfied. There was plenty OF lighting
for all but the slaughter house hangers
on, and even these were partially satiated
in their thirst for gore.
Only one draw was recorded during the
evening, and together with this the even
ing was a busy one with the Pork and
with seven words in 1t and failed to rend
the English language in twain, Tommy
Walsh was satisfactory all the way
through and the bouts were pulled off In
rapid and pleasing succession,
During the evening the Walsh brothers,
Billy and Jack, broke into the spotlight
as the only and original Sponge Kids.
Billy performed the office for his brother
in the latters fight with Leahy and
Brother Jack retaliated few minutes
later when Billy was slammed to the
carpet by Kid Berry.
At that the sponges were not needed
In the fight between Leahy and JACK
Walsh, the fourth number on the pro-
gram, Tommy tore loose with sleep pro-
ducer at close range and sent Jack to
the mat Brother Bill, acting as chief
second Immediately tossed III the sponge,
and when the low brows in the gallery
hollered for an explanation Billy told
them that he was a wise hnancler ana
figured that the short end was good
enough for Jack and worth no more
not even a beating.

nISASTROuS FIRE AT gELCAMp.

About eight clock on Friday evening
tic fine barn on the dairy farm belonging
20 Mr.. lanes f. Walsh, who is now IL
Europe, was discovered to be in flames
and was soon entirely destroyed, to-
gether with 20 sheep, + calves and =
horses This structure was the largest
barn in Hartford county; it was built IN
recent years and up-to-date in material
and workmanship. Beside the loss on
the building and stock it contained
about ] 90 tons of hay, 100 barrels OF
corn, and other provender, together with
a large line of agricultural machinery,
all of which were destroyed.
The origin of the fire is not known, as
there was no one on the place at the
time and the mansion house is at present
unoccupied; this magnificent structure
was some months ago placed in good re-
pair and occupied as summer residence
until lately by family from Baltimore.
The insurance, which was placed by the
brokerage firm of Smith, Rouse and Web
ster Company aggregated SIS, 500
The Dairy farm and more particularly
the immense mansion located thereon,
has been one of the landmarks OF Har-
ford from her earliest history. Like many
of her early improvements was located
near tidewater, so that the English brick,
of which it was constructed, could be
easily landed at the neighboring wharf,
and during the lorg tenure of Mr. Aquilla
Hall who erected the mansion, this home
was the synonym for true chivalry and
open handed hospitality. Still earlier in
its history this estate belonged to the
Davidge family, who trace their ancestry
to Mary, Queen of Scots. one of whom
married Bishop Curtiss.
Later it passed into the hands OF the
Citizens Bank, of Baltimore, from whom
it was purchased by the late James
Walsh, who acquired several thousand
acres of land in this section before his
death and left the tract by will to his
only son, who acquired his majority a
year ago.

From Hayre de Grace,

HAvRE DE GRACE, December 10.-Mrs.
Lydia Foster died last Thursday after
an illness of three days at the advanced
age of SO years. Mrs. Foster was Miss
Chesney, of this county, and had lived
since her marriage in the house where
she died and to which she came as bride
sixty years ago. Her husband Henry
Foster, has been dead about twenty
years. She leaves two sons, J. William
and II. Clayton Foster and one daugh-
ter, Mrs. Hollis Courtney, all ofthis city.
Mrs. Foster was an uuassuming lady of
quiet tastes who will be much missed by
her neighbors to whom she had endeared
herself by her cheerful temper and kindly
interests.
On last Friday the principal, vice prin-
cipal and teacher of manual training OF
our school attended the meeting of the
High School teachers of the state in Bal
timore. The same morning before school
time the janitor, PhiliL Fox, fell from a
ladder and was SO badly bruised that he
was incapacitated from duty the rest OF
the day, so that the whole male force OF
the school was absent. We are informed,
however, that the school moved on as
smoothly under the management of the
lady assistants as if the whole corps had
been present.
The cold weather of last week threaten
ed to freeze the river and so close naviga-
ton on the Susquehanna for the winter,
but mild weather soon followed and the
familiar whistle of the steamboat is still
| a welcome sound
Miss Mary Russell has been the guest
for few days of her mother, Mrs. Mary
| Hammond.
DR.. H. c. Foster, of Clear Spring. Md,
and Mrs. John Ergood, of Washington,
| D. c., were in town on Saturday and
Sunday, having come to attend the
funeral of their grandmother, Mrs. Lydia
Foster.

ing of the oldform policies has proceeded
satisfactorily, though there are still be
tween 800 and 1000 policies to be re-
written; this work will probably be com
pleted in 1908.
There are no old liabilities carried over
except one unadjusted loss of $3.50 and
losses adjusted but not paid amounting
to $4,000.
INSPECTORS REPORT.
Inspector and special agent J. l.. Nc
Cormick among other things states in
his report that he has during the year IN
spected sol risks and written AZ appll-
cations aggregating $S5, 900, and that
he has adjusted and settled II claims
amounting to $13, 3S6S6, and as re-
sesult of reduced risks on his recommen-
dation 81, 800 were saved, which sum
would have been increased $500 II a
further recommendation had been ap-
proved. He calls attention to the diff
Guilty of keeping risks within limits, due
to the excessive cost of building and IS
disposed to recommend that risks on
barns be still further reduced.
The Chair appointed committee con-
sisting of Messrs. T. H. Ward, James
Lee and John d. Worthing ton to examine
these reports and make their report to
the general meeting of stockholders to
be held on Monday, January e. On
motion it was ordered that any proposed
amendments to the bylaws of the Com
pany should be placed in the hands OF
this Committee on or before Saturday,
December %.

CAPITAL AND LABOR CLASH.

We regret to report collision between
the operators of the five slate quarries IN
the vicinity of Delta, which sell their out
put to the United Peach Bottom Slate
Company. The schedule of wages for
sometime past has been 5 cents per hour
orlaborers and 20 cents per hour for split
tiers and cutters, with ten hour day.
On Friday one of the quarries inquestion
posted a notice that reduction of ten
per cent would take place in prices and
the day would be reduced to 8 hours.
This would mean $1.OS and $1.44 re-
spectively for eight hours work but the
hands were unwilling to accept this and
stopped work on Monday.
There is nothing more unfortunate
than a lack of frankness and co-opera'
ton between capital and labor; in the
present case the operators seem to have
been paying liberal wages while business
was active, and in view of the fact thai
building has almost entirely ceased anc
will not probably be resumed in the neal
future, the men take agrave responsible
tv upon themselves when they decline tt
accept what sounds like good wages TO
short day. This is especially empha
sized wher we consider the season of tn
year and we hope to be able to report Ii
our next issue that work has been re
sumed on terms mutually agreeable
Unless this happens in the near futur
severe suffering must follow during tn
coming winter.

and the inspector of risks then made
their several reports, the first two OF
which being so closely linked together
will be summarized as one; and in view
of the fact that such large percentage
of our people are deeply interestedin this

an extended summary, showing it's

Tuesday. Funeral services were held at
the Bel Air Methodist Episcopal Churrh,

rem, Mr. n J. Hutchins, of near Darling

Mr.. and Mrs Hutchins spent their mar
ned lite near St. James Church, MY

IF her death was feebleness incidental to
her advanced age, but this was aggravat-
I'd BY an ugly fall several weeks ago.
Mrs Hutchins was woman OF strong

was held in high esteem by wide range
