PREPARING FOR MEET,
Inter. Collegiate Athletes Ia Training al ST.
Johns College.

The athletes at st. Johns College
are hard at work in preparation for
the secoud annual Maryland inter-col-
legiate meet, which will be held at
the Mount Washington Club on
May A..
Reports from the other colleges OF
the Association-Wes Maryland,
Maryland Agricultural and Washing
ton-show that the same activity is
in evidence at each. This will be
the first outdoor meet held in the vi
cinity of Baltimore this year, and it
is expected to draw n large crowd.
Each institution expects to enter
men in the 100, 900 and 440-yard dash
es, half-mile and mile runs, 220-yard
hurdles, broad and high jump, pole
vault, shot-put and hammer-throw.
Besides the contestants, a large crowd
of rooters is expected from each coll
lege, as the meet is being held on
neutral grounds.
Last season st. Johns won the
meet, while Western Maryland, Wash
ington and Maryland Agricultural Col
leges finished in the order named.
This year each college has about an
equally strong representation, and
there is no general favorite.

PATENT MEDICINES.
Dr.. Louis B. HenkeI, Jr.. Tells What The
Contain In Their Makeup.

At the meeting of the Medical and
Chirurgical Faculty yesterday in Bal
timore. DIR. Louis b. Henkel, Jr., OF
This city, read a paper on Patent and
Proprietary Medicines. DIR. Henkel
sounded warning against the use of
patent medicines. From it it appears
that
Stomach and spring of -the-year med
icines contain alcohol and frequently
cause alcoholism.
Digestion remedies ruin the diges-
tion, and are employed almost as
much and almost as irrationally" by
the medical fraternity as by the
laity.
The more modern quacks employ
nitro-glycerine in their nostrums.
Soothing syrups contain dangerous
opiates.
rheumatism medicines contain TO-
dimes and ingrediants which are very
harmful if taken continually.
Skin-disease medicines contain ar
senic and are very dangerous.
Nervines contain cocaine.
Headache medicines sometimes cause
heart trouble, and occasionally death.
Salves and plasters sometimes con-
tain cocaine.
Hair dyes and bleaches cause the
hair to lose its lustre and causes bald
ness.
Bust-development remedies are chiefly
harmful for the moral effect of the adj
veTtisements.
DIR. Henkel intimated that the insti-
tutions for the cure of alcoholism
were sufficiently useful to make it de-
sirable that they he placed under the
charge of competent medical men.

Lessons From Recent Calamities

As day by day the narrowing de-
tails of fresh calamities are brought. TO
our attention, not only are our SYM
pathies aroused, but the intelligent
mind begins 10 inquire why does
God permit the innocent and the wick
ed alike to suffer-" SIS He really a
God of Wisdom, Justice, Love and
Power?' The difficulty of harmonic
ing the present reign of evil, of
suffering and of sin with the Divine
attributes have caused many to cast
aside the Bible and plunge into inf
delity. Even many theologians find
this problem a difficult one to salts
factorily solve. Thinking people
will no longer be hushed by a look
of holy horror, but they are demand.
ing an answer that reason can accept.
A free discourse presenting the
Scripture teaching on this subject
will be delivered Sunday, May 8, al
2.30 p. M, at the City Assembly
Rooms, by c. T.. Fowler, under the
auspices of the Watch Tower Bible
and Tract Society. The speaker
promises to show the harmony be.
tween present conditions and Gods
character. The discourse promises tC
be of deep interest to all, and espec-
tally thinking Christians of all de.
nominations.

CARRIES VALUABLE RELIC.
Governor WarfieId Takes Washington's Staff
TO jamestown.

Governor warfield and party left
Baltimore this afternoon for James
town to attend the opening Of the Ex-
| position. The Governor took with him
the original bamboo staff that was
carried by George Washington.
This relic valuable both from the
intrinsic and historical standpoints-
is the property of Major w. III. II.
Raleigh, of Baltimore, and for the last
thirty years has been locked up in a
safe-deposit va1lt. 1t is said that
$40, 900 was offered for ii upon one oc-
casion and 81, 500 at another time.
The staff is mounted with gold
head, on which is the Washington coat
of-arms. A gold band bears this i'm
scription 'Bequeathed by Gen.
George Washington to Robert Washing
ton, of Choptank, Va Robert Wash
ington was a cousin of the Father of
His Country, and from him the staff
was handed down to his grandson,
Peter Grayson Washington, and from
the latter was inherited by the family
of Major Raleigh's late wife.
The staff has always been willed,
and the records of it are on file. 1t is
placed in a chamois cover, and the
latter is further protected by case.
Major Raleigh communicated with
President Tucker and other officials
of the Exposition, and they expressed
great desire TO have the staff among
the historical exhibits. The Major
then wrote To Governor Wartield, tell
ing him that his administration of
State affairs had been such that he was
entitled to walk with George Wash
ington's staff, and requested him 10
take it to the Exposition.
This Governor Warfield consented to
do, and he will deliver it in person
to Mr.. J. Taylor Ellyson, Governor of
the Division of History.

BAN ON ELK TEETH.
The President Asks Lodges of Elks Not
TO Use Them.

:. The Butte (Montana) Lodge of Elks
is in receipt OF a letter from Grand
Exalted Ruler Melvin, inclosing a
copy of letter from President Roose-
velt relative TO the reported destruc-
tion of elks by men gathering elk
teeth.
President Roosevelt says that it has
been reported to him that many elks
have been slaughtered for no other
purpose than to obtain their teeth.
He expresses the hope that the lodges
OF ElKs viii take measures to dis
courage the use of elk teeth as en-
blems of membership and as orna :
nents.
Grand Exalted Ruler Melvin has
taken the matter up with the order
throughout the country and is urging
the discontinuance of the use of the
teeth. Many lodges have already
taken action and the Butte lodge has
adopted a resolution declarii < against
a continuance of the use of the teeth.
For several years hunters in the
West have been making collections
of elk teeth and holding them for an
advance in prices because of the
growing scarcity. One man at Bill
lings has a collection of many thous-
ands. The declaration of Elk lodges
against their continued use will like
~ cause severe drop in market
prices.

he never even offered 1t to a repre-

ton or for any other purpose. Any
one that says he did tells a bare
faced untruth. But, since that fall

1t Was Harner's Fault.

The Evening slop Bucket keeps on
masticating the dry goods about
Councilman McAndrew's request for
information about the police service
of the First ward made at a recent
session of the city council. With
its usual employment Of the irrele-
want conclusion the Evening Stop
Bucket argues down to another point
with hypocritical pretense. Mr.. Nc
Andrews did get up in council at a
recent session and he did ask about
the police service of the First ward.
But the Evening Stop Bucket fails to
refer to the fact that Mr.. McAndrew
was Immediately confronted by Chief
OF Police Richard Scott. who. after
asking permission from the mayor to
make statement, promptly inform
ed Mr.. McAndrew that the First
ward had been deprived Of police
protection for only two or three days
because the officer detailed there on
the regular beat had been down sick.
Mayor Harmer did not appoint any
special policeman to patrol the First
ward beat during the illness of the
regular officer and as the police force
was thus reduced, Chief Scott said
he had to shift the men around as
best he could. So If the Evening
Stop Bucket is worrying about that
First ward police protection for the
two or three days there wasn't po-
liceman out there on regular patrol
duty, it must console itself with the
stern fact that it is Mayor Harmer's
fault.

Those sundar YIoIators.

a few OF the hypocritical dema-
gogues who have been circulating
falsehoods- for the purpose OF in
iecting hyperdermics into the Dem
oeratic party in Harvey Harmer's
name. are spreading the report
around that Harmer is the only
mayor who ever fined Sunday drunks
ten dollars and costs. This is
falsehood on the fact of it for the
city records sho what Lafayette C.
Grille. when mayor OF Clarksburg.
fined Sunday drunks ten dollars and
costs, and in default OF the payment
thereof they were sent to jail for ten
days. This fact is shown ON the po-
lice dockets that were used during
Mr.. crile's tenure of office and may
be seen 1t the city headquarters by
anyone DESTROYS of so doing.
1t has also been enormously stat
ed that Mr.. Harmer is the only
mayor who ever sent men and
women to jail for more than three
days at time. The records of the
city of Clarksburg show differently.
Mr.. Grille sent many man, who VIC
lated the laws against the peace and
dignity of the city on the Sabbath
day, to jail for periods of ten days
and he also sent number of violat-
ors of. the law to jail for periods ex-
tending from ten days to- the limit
of his official authority.
In this connection it is not out of
place to again refer to the fact that
Mr.. Grille believes that the citizens
are entitled to clean Sunday. He
believes that the saloons should be
closed. strictly speaking, on the
Sabbath day. When he was mayor
he punished all offenders of the sun
day closing law who were brought
before him severely. And it is a
matter of fact and record that Mr..
Harmer has not himself punished
yiolators of the Sunday closing law
single penny, in fines, nor single
hours difference in jail imprison-
ment more than Mr.. Grille did while
he was mayor.
This is another sample of the fran,
tic attempts that Harmer and his
bogus reform crowd of mugwumps
have made to snatch credit from
whom Just credit is due and place it
upon the diadem of hypocrisy they
would have the people set upon Mr..
Harmers head.
