Hunting Accidents.

This is the season of the year when
men without any experience whatever
in the handling of firearms go forth
into the woods and fields in search of
game and through their carelessness
and ignorance contribute to the tragedy
records and the work of the hospitals.
Now the huntsman shoots companion,
mistaking him for game. Again he
shoots himself, perhaps dragging his
gun after him as he climbs a fence,
maybe failing to observe the common
precautions regarding loading and IN
loading. Scarcely day passes with
out bringing the news of some such un-
necessary disaster, attributable in al
most every case to the inexperience or
the recklessness of the hunter. So
often are men shot by others through
mistake in the woods that this has come
to be recognized as distinct no of
casualty, and every year certain num-
Der of deaths and woundiugs in the
woods may be anticipated.
Men 60 into the woods to hunt with
out experience with the same readiness
that they 60 into the water. The sum-
mer boating accident is almost invaria
bly, the result of inexperience. Some
parents allow their children to go out
with guns without any thought what
ever for the possible consequences.
They learn too late the truth that fire.
arms make poor playthings for the
young.

Democratic Campaign Contrib
utiOnS.

The undersigned, as Treasurer of the
Committee of One Hundred, political
organization throughout the State of
Maryland for the purpose of electing
Bryan and Kern and the regular Con-
gressional candidates of the Democratic
party, having duly given bond to the
State of Maryland and filed the same
with the Secretary of State, as provided
under chapter 122 of the Acts of the
General Assembly of Maryland of 1908
for the purpose of preventing corrupt
practices, is now in position t. receive
and account for, according to law, such
contributions as may be made by all Cit
liens; and has also been appointed by
the Democratic National Committee,
member of the Finance Committee of
the National Organization for the State
of Maryland.
The new law. which throws much la
Dor on political treasurers, directs the
names of all contributors and the
amounts given to be made public rec
ord in the Circuit Court Clerks office of
the respective counties or Baltimore
City. No subscriptions without the
name of the giyer can be received. Any
person who subscribes in any other name
than his own, and every treasurer who
knowingly receives such subscription,
is subject to fine and imprisonment and
will be ineligible to public office for four
years from the date of the offence. A
detailed account of expenditures is re-
quired. The law prohibits subscriptions
from corporations. The publicity thus
given to all subscriptions is apparently
intended to discourage them firm the
special interests for improper purposes
and also correspondingly to encourage
| the party leaders and beneticiaries, in
| Guiding the rank and file of the people,
whose interests are served by honest
government, to bear the campaign eX-
penses of the party which they choose
to support. The public record of CON
tributions will thus serve as an index of
the individuals who give financial sup
port to the Democratic party in this
important campaign.
| Every Democrat in the State of Mary
land, who is financially able, should at
once make a contribution for the cause
either to local Treasurer, to the Treas
urer Of the State Central Committee,
Hon. Murray Vandiver, or to the under
signed, and the name of the contributor
will be placed on the Roll of Honor to
be recorded in the courts Of record as
directed by the Statute.
If the people desire to rule and throw
off the yoke of the special interests, they
should respond to this lawful opportun.
ity and contribute to necessary and
proper political expenses.

FORTY-SECOND YEAR OPENS
SEPTEMBER 10th. 1905.

PERFECTLY SAFE, wheie your sons
and daughters are surrounded by
the best moral and religious intlu
ence: where pure mountain air and
water keep them healthful: and
where new buildings equipped in
modcran fashion house them in
comfort.
WISELY PLANNED for both sexes,
but rcciting in separate classes;
making EDUCATION its great husi-
ness, and keeping athletic and so
cial matters incidentally reducing the
cost so as to reach the largest num-
Der but tolerating no student who
will not study.
THOROUGH, offering three separate
courses for the degree Of A. B., one
with Greek and two without; well
equipped Scientific Building; good
Library; Gymnasium, and Faculty
of twenty-one specialists.
OF GOOD REPUTE. You will find
our students everywhere, ask them.
Without large endowments or
splendid gifts from the rich we have
slowly built up a College whose only
claim is the good work it does, and
this has kept it growing for forty
years.

To Push Good Roads Work.

Governor CrOthers announced Mon
day that the Good Roads Co mmission
will begin the actnal work of construc-
ton of the roads under the new law IN
all sections of the State Immediately
upon the opening of spring next year
ut is our plan,' said the Governor,
"to begin the work of 70 ad building as
soon as the spring weather makes it
possible. The winter will be devoted
to getting in readiness for the work,
and when spring comes we expect to be
prepared to start the roads stimuli
taneously is nearly eve ry part of the
State.
THE question of m aterials is one
which we are now con sidering, and the
Good Roads Commissi on will be glad
to receive information from any per
sons who own gravel beds, stone quar-
ries, shells or other material that can be
used in building roads. We wish this
information so we can know exactly
what material we will have in reach in
the State and also in order that we can
make transportation arrangements that
will facilitate the work and prevent I'M
necessary delay. If we have fairly
open winter we can buy considerable
material and transport it to the location
of the new roads, so that when spring
comes the material for building will be
on hand waiting for us at the exact
spot we want it. Before spring, in or
der to get ready, there will be an i'm
mense amount of detail work to be
done, and If those having information
about road material will communicate
with US it will greatly help our plans"

In MemOrianl.

In sad and loving remembrance OF
my dear father, Richard H. Curtin, who
departed this life three months and
seven days ago, July 18th, 1905,
In the graveyard softly sleeping,
Where the flowers gently wave,
Lies the one love so dearly
In his silent, lonely grave.
Friends may think l soon forget thee
And my aching heart is healed,
But they little know the sorrow
That is within my heart concealed.
Farewell, father may your slumbers
Be as gentle as your love.
And when God shall call us homeward,
May we meet in heaven above.
By his loving and devoted daughter,
ANNIE.
