Judgment For SS,OSZ.5J.
The court rendered its decision last
Thursday in the case OF f. Marshall Gil
bert VS.. Samuel w. Barrick, giving Mr..
Gilbert Judgment for SO, 022. 80, as bal
an.e due him from Mr.. Barrick. The
case is one of long standing. TIL. part
les We're engaged in the lime business
near Woodsboro, from 1891 to 1898, when
the partnership was dissolved. Mr.. Gil.
bert claimed Mr.. Barrick owed him a
considerable sum as his balance in sett-
ling up the accounts, which Mr.. Barrltk
denied, and Mr.. Gilbert brought suit,
asking for an accounting.
The settlement of the affairs proceed
ed under arbitration for about five years,
and for the past five years the case has
been in court.
The testimony in the case is very vol
luminous, covering about 800 typewrit-
ten pages.
Frank L. Stoner and Hammond Urner
represented Mr.. Gilbert and William p.
Mallsby and Clayton O. Keedy, Mr..
Birrick.

Water Supply Short.
1.-THE situation in Frederick, as regards
the water supply, is critical. The city,
in my opinion, should take steps immed-
lately to improve it. e
Mr.. Alfred M. Quick, engineer of the
Water Department of Baltimore, made
this statement to representative of THE
NEWS Monday afternoon, just before
leaving for home, after conference with
the waterworks committee of the Board
of Aldermen, at which he submitted his
final recommendation as to the method
of increasing the local water supply.
Mr.. Quick stated that a careful inves-
tigation had shown that Frederick's
water supply just about equaled the con-
sumption; in fact, at the time he made
his measurements, which was on Mon
day, the rate of consumption was slight
ly greater than the greatest possible in
flow at the reservoirs. The consumption
at that time was at the rate of |, 500, 900
gallons every "a hours; the greatest pos
sible delivery is 100000 gallons every
"a hours. News.

Unalterably Opposed.

Now, here is an alarming revelation
in the ranks of the Democratic party,
and in the state that gives it's presi'
Dental nominees the largest MAORI
ties. The facts are set forth in the
following telegram

ribbed Democrats of Texas, composing
the Texas Sheep and Goat Raisers
association, in convention here, adopt
ed standpat policy in the matter OF
tariff revision as TO woods and hides
in the following resolution:
BE 1t Resolved, That the Texas
Sheep and Goat Raisers' association
hereby goes on record as unalterably
opposed to any reduction in the tariff
on wool, mohair and hides; and that
it's secretary is directed to so notify
the Texas congressman.

to retaliation in kind? Democrats

NO DEFICIT IN TREASURY.
Disturbing and Misleading Assertion
Made by Contemporary.

The loose statements which very in.
telligent contemporaries permit them
selves to make concerning matters of
which exact information is readily &C.
cessible have an Illustration in the edi.
torial assertion of the Philadelphia
North American that the United
States treasury also begins the year
with a deficit"
Such a disturbing and misleading
assertion is the result of failing to
make the necessary distinction be
tween deficiency in the revenue and
a deficit in the treasury. 1t is &C.
curate to say that the revenue for the
last six months of 1907 shows de.
ficiency, the receipts having fallen
$9,000O00 in round numbers short OF
meeting the expenditures.
But that is very different thing
from "a deficit in the treasury"
Strictly that would mean that there is
less cash on hand than the accounts
call for, implying diversion of funds or
general use, that there is less money
on hand than is needed to meet de.
mand liabilities, ii is still wider of
the mark. The treasury has such a
surplus on hand after providing for all
reserve liabilities that it not only does
not feel the deficiency in revenue for
the past six months, but it could pay
such a deficiency in revenue for near
ly Is years longer before creating a
deficiency in the treasury.
Moreover, If the swollen surplus
were thus drawn down to about one
quarter of it's present bulk, it would
really be more salutary for the gen
eral fiscal situation.

AND 1T WASN'T A STAGE KISS.
Frank Daniels Won in an lmpromptu
Kidding Contest.

The fact that Frank Daniels, the
comic opera comedian, sat in box
at performance of Fascinating
Flora" in Kansas City recently, gave
the audience an opportunity to enjoy
n bunch of impromptu comedy that
wasn't expected. From the time Dan
iels appeared until the last act the
comedian was the target Of all sorts
OF FRANKS and jokes by Adele Richie
and members of her company.
The Kidding" of Daniels culminat-
Miss Richie was forced to make
speech, following her song, Captain
Willie Brown" In her characteristic
manner the actress told as seriously
Us she could of her appreciation OF
the applause.
This isn't much of a speech, to be
sure" she said in closing, "but | can
make a better speech than Frank Dan
iels can, anyway"
of course you can" said James E.
Sullivan, the Wagnerian comedian,
who stood beside her. And | dare
him to try it. He's afraid to"
That was the opportunity the ar-
dience wanted. 1t applauded, whis-
tied and stamped until it sounded
as if an Uncle Toms Cabin" gallery
were welcoming Eliza across the ice.
Daniels sat still and blushed while
the applause increased Miss Ritchie's
merriment She had the man in the
box guessing.
Then things happened. Daniels
held a whispered consultation with
his wife, who sat in the box beside
him. Then, while the din continued,
he mounted the box railing, apparent
II preparing to make a speech. The
applause, which subsidized for a mo-
ment. broke loose anew when, instead
OF speech, the comedian reached to-
ward Miss Richie, caught her by one
car and kissed her. 1t was real kiss,
tOo-not stage kiss. The actress
was startled and ran from the stage
The applause that followed could not
bring her back to the stage, either.

ONLY HAMlET'S CLOTHES.
Story of Henry Irving That MANSFIELD
Used as a Moral.

Richard Mansfield, said theatre
cal manager, took the greatest pains
to keep his figure perfect. And, in
deed, he succeeded well in this. Such
shapely legs and arms, such slim
supple waist, such a broad and deep
chest, never graced the American
stage before.
MIR. Mansfield insisted on good
figures. He would not permit his
players to get too fat or too thin.
Some he made diet, some he made ex-
ercise. And, TO show the figures
Importance, he used to tell them a
story about Henry Irving-a story
told him by Irving himself.
Irving, when he was young, was a
very skeleton. He once had chance
in the provinces-I think Mr.. Mans
field said it was IS a week-and if the
actor got on well the first night his
fortune would be made.
"But, when Irving made his first
nights appearance in the black tights
of the Danish prince, one gallery god
shouted across to another:
"Is that him, Bill?'
"'No,' Bill roared back. 'Them's
only the young fellers clothes. They'll
shove him out later on

True Criticism.

Jessie Busley delights in seeing a
good play, and takes advantage of
every occasion, when she is not play
the theaters in the city where she
may happen to be. Two years ago
she CHANGED to be in Chicago on a
Sunday night. Looking over the adj
vertisements in the newspaper she
decided to see well-known comedy
written by widely-known playwright.
She sat in box and directly below
her in two orchestra chairs in the
fifth row were seated an aged couple
who bore every mark of the rustic
type. Both, 1t appeared before the
play had progressed very far, were
very much interested, but the old gen.
tieman was hard of hearing and de-
pended on his wife for the repetition
of many of the lines that escaped him.
A well-known actor. who shall be
nameless in the light of what follows,
but who is swollen up with an idea OF
his own value and artistic achieve
ment, had the leading part, and final
IL came to line that read:
I'm rotten; rotten all through"
The old gentleman turned to his
wife and said quite loudly: What
does he say"
The old lady leaned toward him
and replied so shrilly that half the
house heard her: "He says he's rot.
ten all through"
so he is. So he is" returned the
old man with deep conviction.

PLAYS AND PLAYERS.

For the Lenten season Miss Scho-
Der, manager of the College theater at
Chicago, has secured a play that will
be most appropriate. "The Sign OF
the Cross" the play chosen, is ac-
knowledged the greatest Biblical
play ever written, even surprising
Gen. Lew Wallaces "Ben-Hur' in
dramatic value. This play will be
put on with a wealth of beautiful
scenery, the entire strength Of the
Patrons Stock Company and with
about 100 supernumeraries as Roman
soldiers, gladiators, Jews, Christians
and Tiberian slaves.
Alfred Hickman, leading man of
1.-The Rogers Brothers in Panama,
created the part of Little Billee in
the first production Of "Trilby" and
was Blanche Walsh's first husband.
They were married seven years, and
no one knew il until the actress asked
for a divorce.

mainder of the season.
Pauline Chase is playing the title
