ELI n. J. Houck Shoots George n
Miles, Jr,

Mr.. H. J. Houck, proprietor of Houck s
Mill, near Manor, who is charged with shoot
ing Mr.. George II. Miles, Jr., farmer and
neighbour was brought to Towson Thursday.
While the arrest was being made MIR. VIM.
E. Miles, a brother of the injured man, went
to Towson and swore out a warrant before
Justice Joseph B. Herbert, charging Mr..
Houck with shooting his brother.
M. Houck told Sheriff Elliott that he would
have given himself up, but he was busy at the
mill.
Upon arriving at Towson Mr.. Houck en-
gagged Messrs John Grason and John Mays
Little as counsel and was instructed by them
not to give out a statement. 1t is understood,
however, that plea of self defense will be
made, as it is alleged that Mr.. Miles approach
ed Mr.. Houck with shovel before he shot
him. 1t is also alleged that Mr. Houck s COW
got on Mr.. Miles property some time ago
and that it was beaten with shovels. When
it went on the property on Tuesday the
cow was again beaten, it is alleged, and
the attention of the Houck family was
drawn to it. Then, it is claimed, that MIR.
Houck went to the Miles property and, as
Mr.. Miles came toward him with shovel,
Mr.. Houck fired.
MIR. Houck married daughter of Mr..
Terry Boylan, this city, and about 20 years
ago was proprietor of Winters Mill, at Gran
berry Station, and Tracey's Mill, at Patapsco.

Arbor Day at West End School.

Arbor Day was celebrated at West End
School last Friday, April IL, in a unique
manner, under the direction of the teachers,
Mrs. l.. A. Sellman and Miss Nettie Whit.
more, the program was carried out in a way
both instructive and enjoyable to the pupils.
In the morning the school was called together,
and after singing and devotional exercises,
the significance of the day was explained in q
few words. Then all went out to the play.

were more fully explained by actual work
with them. On one side of the ground the
girls prepared large flower bed, while on
the other the boys planted five thrifty young
naples named. respectively, Columbus. Long.
fellow, George Calvert, Roosevelt and George
Washington. Then all the pupils were given
brooms and rakes to clean the grounds. For
time West End looked like it was passing
through Kansas tornado, but when the lull
came after the storm the pavements and sod
looked so neat and fresh that all felt paid for
the exertion. The little workers were paid by
"Peanut Scramble" at the end of the pro.
gram.
In the afternoon the school paid visit to
"Shades," where they were handsomely en-.
tertained by Miss Eva Herr and her well
trained pupils with recitations, Arbor Day
songs and drills. The day closed with base
bali match between the West End Nerves and
Shade Veterans. The score was tie owing to
the fact that the West End teacher played on
both sides.

ADDITIONAL LOCAL.
a Pleasant Birthday Social.

The home of Mr. and Mrs. John E. Spencer
was the scene of a very pleasant social event
given by Mr.. Charles w. Lockard in honor of
his cousin, Mr.. Albert Spencer's, birthday
anniversary. Mr.. Spencer has been in Con-
gress Heights for some months, where he has
been attending the Spenserian Business Col
lege, of Washington, D. c. Mr.. Spencer
came home Friday afternoon to spend his
Easter vacation, so of course the event of
Tuesday evening, the 9th instant, was quite
an agreeable surprise to him. The evening
was spent in games, conversation and vocal
and instrumental music, music being furnished
by Misses Nina and Annie Siocksdale, Mr..
Bradley Stocksdale and Mr.. John E. Spencer.
A very interesting feature of the evening was
duet by Miss Nina Stocksdale and Mr.. John
K. Spencer, and also one by Miss Annie
Stocksdale and Mr.. Albert Spencer, 1.-The
Grand Old Flag" The play, known as Hur-
ley Burnley, and introduced by Albert Spencer,
proved very enthusiastic to Bradley Stocksdale
and Charles Lockard, for they certainly de-
serve much credit for playing their parts so
well. At late hour all were invited to the
diningroom, where refreshments were served
in abundance, after which all departed for
their homes, expressing themselves we'll
pleased with the evenings enjoyment. Those
present were-Mr. and Mrs. John E. Spencer,
Mr.. and Mrs. Horace Shipley, Mr.. and Mrs.
William Barnes, Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. Spencer;
Misses Viola Bartholow, Bertha Buckingham,

NOah's Ark.

On Monday evening next, at the Academy
| ofMusic, Baltimore, the Lee Rod Amusement
Co., Inc, will present for the first time on any
| stage the musical fantasy, ''Noah's Ark, y
| whose author is Clare Hummer, young wo
man who has long been known to the public
as writer of popular and successful songs,
among them the notable tavorite, "Deare. "
The very title of the piece gives hint OF
something new and interesting in stage after
ings, and it takes no great stretch OF the lmag
ination TO people the theme with dozens OF the
attractive fguresof childhood days-Noah, the
ark, the animals, Noah ssons, Shem, Ham and
Japhet and even their wives. 1t is said that
Mrs. Hummer, with the license allowed to
dramatists, has introduced many other charac-
tiers into the story, among them one bill,
the bo'sun of the ark. who has all the work
to do and will be impersonated by the we'll
known comedian, Harry Bulger, who has al
ready been identified in most important way
with some of the leading musical successes OF
recent times, including 1.-The Sleeping Beauty
and the Beast" "Woodland," the Man
from Now and others quite as notable. The
Arab of Ararat also is a very important per.
son; so is Tess, stowaway girl and "Doss'
the worst man in the world, who is saved by
mistake.
Those who have heard Mrs. Hummer
music say that it is delightfully."- light and airy
and still of most musicianly character. The
piece is in two acts and three scenes, besides
having an Introductory series of tabeaux.
The scene of the first act occurs on Ararat,
the morning that the ark arrives, aud the
second is in modern times-very advanced
modern times at that-with its locale the IS
land of Santa Catalina, California. In this
act there is Marconi wireless telegraphy
booth and other explorations of advanced
ideas that have not been shown on the stage
in any other productions.
The musical numbers are decidedly novel
and beautiful, it is said, including one en-
titled merry Go Round which introduces
carrousel on the stage also for the first time.
Maurice j. Lehmayer, Manager of the
Academy of Music, is President of the Lee.

the piece, aud in the cast is his protegee, Miss

Among the other principals are Sallie Fish
er. Hattie Arnold, Stanley Forde, Edwin Will
son, William Murphy aud Edward Lawrence,
besides a large beauty chorus aud selected
orchestra under the direction of Mr.. Watty
Hydes. The production is said to be lavish
in scenery and costuming and is staged under
the direction of Mr.. Barney Pagan.

Tariff Versus Farmer.

In reviewing the price current OF the Baltl.
more market taken from the daily Sun from
1910 to 1860, period of 20 years, the farmer
received 81. rs bushel for his wheat and &c
cents for his corn net. For 20 years we lived
under tariff in which the interests of the con-
sumner were thought of and regarded, his ghts
respected, as well as the manufacturer. The
tax was adjusted in a spirit of fairness and
Justice and was much less than now. 1t Is
strange, but most true, the price of wheat and
corn, the two great staples upon which the
farmers chiefly depend, have for the last 10
years, in which the prosperity" years are
included, been less than for any decade, as
far back as 184O All other values through
out the nation have advanced. The great
staples of wheat and corn are less than 40
years ago. A farmer selling his crop of corn
and wheat today in the Baltimore market
would receive net for his wheat 60 cents and
his corn 46 cents a bushel--prices out of all
proportion with his expense now and 40 years
ago when his wheat was $1.25 and his corn &c
cents bushel. For 20 years under moder-
ate and Just tariff the whole nation was pros
perous-the people contented and happy.
Labor was abundant and satisfactory; living
was cheap, aud wages in proportion. Strikes
were unknown; crimes were not frequent;
jails and pententiaries were not crowded.
Men made fortunes of hundreds and thousands
of dollars, but not millions or tens of millions.
Never before did small proportion of a
nation at any period Of the worlds history
amass and store up such fabulous and untold
riches. From 1862 to the present. period
of As years-hundreds have become million
aires at the expense of millions of others,
made possible only by the imposition of I'M
Just and onerous tariff duties. Will the farm
ers of the nation continue to support the
Republican party for an indefinite period I?
A crisis is at hand; it is at his door. The cry
for labor is ringing Throughout the land. The
factories, mills, railroads, mines and forests
have become his rivals in the labor market
and are stripping his neighborhoods, counties
and States to such an extent that every year
hands are more scarce and wages increased.
The farmer never has or never will be able TO
compete with rivals sustained and surrounded
by laws of doubtful interest to themselves.
He stands alone. He is outside of the zone
of protection. He has no tariff to prop and
stay him and to keep the price of his products
satisfactory and profitable. Take down this
invisible and mysterious wall which no one
can see, but millions have felt. Take it down
one. half, and let the consumers and the people
enjoy it from whom it has been so many years
diverted. Such course will be death blow
to the trusts. d. c. j.

From a party d-point, the impor
lance of the coming municipal election in
Baltimore on the 7th of May next, cannot
be overstated, and the Democratic party
of the entire State is vitality interested in
the result.
Baltimore city, Notwithstanding the
enormous negro vote which it contains,
and which is corraled by the Republicans
at every election, is normally Democratic
and the condition of harmony which pre-
walls there at this time, makes it quite
certain that the Democratic ticket will be
elected by large majority. This should
bring satisfaction to every member of the
Democratic party in the State.
The main part of the intelligence and Of
the taxpaying element of the city of Bal
timore is Democratic, and in view OF the
large expenditure of money which is to be
made in the city within the next few years,
it is highly important that the Democrats
should be in control.
The ticket which the party presents to
the voters of the city, is exceptionally
strong and capable, and will, without ques-
ton, receive their hearty support.
There is duty which the Democrats OF
the State owe to those of the city, in this
municipal contest. And that is, to give
them every possible support in the tight.
So that, with the Democrats of the city
and the Democrats of the State working
shoulder to shoulder for the success of the
party at the coming Mayoralty election, it
NAV be shown, when the votes are counted,
that Baltimore has given the Democratic
ticket phenomenal majority. What an
impetus this would give to the State cleo
ton in November. 1t would be the key
note Of victory.
Hundreds of Democrats, now residents
of Baltimore, came from the various coun-
ties of the State And all these would be
ouickened in their efforts for the party S
success in the city, when they know that
the Democrats of their home counties are
greatly interested in the result.
The Democratic Press should sound the
note of encouragement in every nook and
corner of our State, and give to the gallant
Democrats of Baltimore, every help that
is possible. in this contest that means SO
much to the Democratic party of the city
and Of the State.
General Vandiver, the Chairman OF the
Democratic State Central Committee, in
yited the Democratic Editors and other
influential Democrats of the State, to a
banquet and conference at the Eutaw
House in Baltimore, on Monday evening
last. The object of the meeting was to
promote the interests outlined in this arti-
Gle.
A number of prominent Democrats spoke
at the banquet, among them our fellow
townsman, State Insurance Commissioner,
B. F. Grouse, Esq.
The conference was in every way very
harmonious and very successful.

Queer Mix-up in Idaho.

WASHINGTON, April 1s.-The situation in
the courts of Idaho into which President
Roosevelt has deemed it his privilege to inject
himself appears to be one of the most extra.
ordinary lin which the State and Federal
courts and community have ever been in
volved. 1t is a bewildering combination of
criminality, courts and politics.
interest in Idaho affairs, his espousal of the
Mormon canse in the midst of political con-
test in which pro- Mormonism and anti Nor.
monism formed the only issue, and his as.
sumption before trial of the guilt of Haywood
and Meyer, indicted for the murder of Gov.
Steunenburg have never been explained.
His interference at this time with the investi
cation of the lumber frauds and the prosecution
of Senator elect Borah is bewildering to those
who assume that Mr.. Roosevelt is the great
champion of ''law and ORDER" the square
deal'' and undiscriminating justice.
