During its week S engagement here
at the Colonial Theatre some few

Company deservedly won many warm
friends, who viii heartily welcome
its return next week. The Runkel

local stage before. The company will
also give a matinee on Tuesday an n
performance on Tuesday night.
Since its last appearance here there
have been few changes in the com

strengthened. The Runkel Company
did such good work here and pleased
the masses so well that it needs no
introduction on this occasion and GER
tainly needs no favorable comment.
The company plays at popular prices
and pleases everybody. The fact that
it will pe gre ted here on Monday and
Tuesday nights with large audiences
goes without saying. See adj. in an

Through the grand old Land of

Which our forebears came 10 seek,
Lie extended the blue waters.
OF the noble Chesapeake.
And behind two frowning headlands,
i-ias a ety. ca s~1 gray.
Where the Nate u thc severn
Kiss the waters of the bay.
Now, the rift between these head

Gives panoramic view
OF the crafts of all description,
As they sail the waters blue.
First, there comes German Liner
With bone between her teeth,
And she flies her nations standard
Ger the German mast beneath.
Then, there comes a saucy French
man,
Who, with flags, is gaily dressed;
And she bears a squad of tourists,
Bound for Bordeaux or for Brest.
Next in line an English steamer
Swiftly through the waves doth
forge,
And SO gaily at her masthead
Waves the banner of st. George.
Then, there comes Yankee steamer,
With smoke dying from her pipes,
Aid she flies aloft Old Glory
With its brilliant stars and stripes.
See that worn and battered hobo,
Tramp of ocean, as it were,
Having no fixed destination,
Any port is home to her.
Little tugs with heavy barges;
Bay line steamers, trim and neat;
White winged yachts. intent on
pleasure,
Oyster PUNCHES, quite a fleet.
Then, there comes Norfolk steamer,
Just as fall the shades of night,
Looking, in the husky distance,
Like town with lamps alight.
Thus they pass in quick succession,
With their loads of human freight;
Who can tell with what emotion.
Each ones breast is animate?

Roads. lie was carried to the nearest

moned, who advised that he be taken
to the hospital Immediately, which
was done after wrapping the man up
as carefully as possible, but ON ar
irving at the Maryland University
Hospital, Baltimore, it was found that
he was dead.
Nothing was found that gave any
clue To his identity. How he came
there-whether he lost mis- way in the
storm CT snow and sleet and was over
come by the intense cold no one can
say. Judging by the appearance Of
the snow he must have lain there
since the evening before. lie appeared
to be between 40 and 30 years OF age,
sandy complexion, rather heavily
built and dressed like a laborer. The
superstition is that he was employed
by the railroad company.
