Clean up the Yards.

The season of the year has again
arrived when it is a pleasure to be out
of doors, and when Mother Earth is
decking herself in her new garments;
when all nature is responding to the
warm rays of the sun, and the warm
winds, and warm rains, and is putting
on it's new suit of green.
What can be more unsightly at such
a time, and more unhealthy, than to
see the accumulation or odds and ends
and rubbish which have been thrown
into the yard during the past few cold
er months :? What is more likely to
furnish starting place for typhoid
and other fevers than such spots
Let everyone start out and clean up
the yard, not only the front one, but
the back one as we'll; try and get every
thing that is likely to furnish breed
ing place for germs cleaned up. Scatter
lime, use whitewash, and not only will
you be repaid by the improved appear
ance of everything round about you,
but you will be repaid too by the
knowledge that you are doing your
part toward lessening disease and in
creasing the healthiness of your town
and community.

Ringing Brothers Worlds Great

Wednesday and Thursday, May II and
Is, giving the same performances that
were given in New York city.
There are no less than seven sensa-
tions on the program, any one OF
which is great enough to give cir
Gus distinction. There are the Won
derful Schumann horses which waltz
on their hind legs, drink from large
glasses and roll each other around in
huge beer barrels; elephants that use
the telephone, conversing with each
other over the wire from one end OF
the main tent to the other; the thrill
ing double somersaulting automobile
act, performed by young French
girl; Roblidello, the Mexican wire
wizard; the wonderful Lorch family
of acrobats and 100 other great acts
that are new to America.
This will be the only opportunity
for the people of Westminster to see
Ringing Brothers circus, and prob
ably never again will such an array of
European talent be seen under one
management.
The parade will be given at 10

SPRING MEETING AT PIMLICO.
Maryland Jockey Clubs Race TOmOr-
row, Saturday, April "a.

When the bugle blows at Pimlico
tomorrow for the opening of the
Maryland Jockey Clubs Spring Meet
ing, there will be a big attendance of
horse lovers from near and far. Great
preparations have been made for this
event in the sporting world, and the
track and grounds are in spick and
span order.
For weeks past the horses have
been pouring i'm from all parts of the
country, so that now the familiar
theatrical sign of standing Room
Only" could be applied to the stabling
with much truth.
Fred. Littlefield arrived last week
with his modest string consisting of
the crack colt, jubilee, and the 2-year-
old, My Lady Laughter, which have
been trained at the owners farm
near Middleburg, this county. His
brother-in-law, Bob Walden, left
Bowling Brook on Tuesday with big
carload, including a number of 2-year
olds, together with Belle of Jessamine.
Consistent, Kings Plate, and others
well known in the older division.
For many years the late R. Wynd-
ham Walden, father of the present
trainer,was one of the foremost horse
men in the country, and his skill in
handling thoroughbreds was only
equalled by his integrity and honesty
AS the first race does not begin
until p. M, and the days program
of six races will be concluded before
o'clock, visitors will be able to
reach home at a convenient hour.

Where Was the Deacon.

Deacon Jones, the great man OF a
little village of Massachusetts, whose
outward piety was of the vociferous
order, but whose charity toward his
fellow men was not as abounding as
it might have been, was dangerously
i'll, and his brother deacons, impressed
with the custom of issuing bulletins
from the sick rooms of prominent
individuals, decided to follow the
fashion, with the following results:
''6 p. m. Deacon Jones is in seri-
Gus condition"
81 p. m. Deacon Jones has rallied
slightly"
80 p. m. Deacon Jones has suffered
relapse
I'll p. m. Deacon Jones has departed
for heaven
Thus the bulletins read at mid
night; but early in the morning some
unregenerate mortal who did net love
the Deacon, evidently passed thai
way for the light of neV Cay showed
curious townspeople the later report:

MARYLAND LOOKS GOOD.
Thrifty Farmers Coming in and Max
ing Idle Lands Blossom.

"The State of Maryland is the Mecca
of progressive farmers from all over
the world, and before long we will
have one of the best agricultural sec
tions of the whole United States,' said
A. F. Trappe, the secretary of the
State Bureau of immigration, after
returning from trip through South
ern Maryland, where he assisted a
number of Western farmers in the
selection of suitable locations.
1T is a remarkable thing how the
aspect of a section of our state can
be changed with the assistance of
suitable laws. Since the effective
work of the State Bureau of Immigra-
ton has been brought to bear we can
point with pride to Maryland as one
of the foremost states in the Union for
agricultural purposes. We are very
much hampered in several ways, but
the most distinguished experience is
the jealousy of our competitors in
other States.
with this handicap we have been
able to locate in 1908 such a number
of strangers and foreigners in our
State that the total sum of cash
brought in amounts to over 100000
invested in farm lands. The desire
to come to Maryland is something un-
precedented; we received during the
last two months 645 applications for
information. The improvements in
the agricultural conditions of Mary
land can best be noticed by trip
through the southern tier of our
counties. The land formerly idle be-
tween the Pennsylvania and the Bal
timore and Ohio Railroads from Bal
timore to Washington is nearly all in
the hands of thrifty set Of Germans
from the West and from the Father
land; along the Patuxent River, in
Anne Arundel and Prince Georges
counties, the alfalfa fields extends in
every direction, showing what can be
done. The biggest success of the
farmers can be reported from the
Eastern Shore, where a thrifty set
tlement of people from Switzerland
helps to swell the pride in farming"

Academy of Music.

The always buoyant Miss Lulu
Glaser will bring a new Viennese
operetta to the Academy of Music,
Baltimore, next week. This new
musical play, which has been voted
the greatest success that Miss Glaser
has enjoyed since the days of Dolly
Warden" is called mile. Mischief, y
and the fun and comedy contained
therein is said to live up to its.e
gaging title.
It's music, which is by Carl M.
Ziehrer, one of the most popular of
Australian composers, is said to pos
sess the triple rhythm one associates
with the gay gardens where Strauss,
Lehar and Ziehrer built their first
fame.
The story of mile. Mischief invol-
YES a series of complications arising
from a wager which Rosette,an artists
model has made, that she will spend
twenty-four hours as a soldier at the
Fremstadt barracks. She brushes
aside the protests of Andre Claire, a
young artist with whom she is in love,
and determines to carry out the under
taking. She takes the name and Gre
dentials, and incidentally part of the
superfluous wealth of Freddy Meline,
son Of rich automobile manufacturer
who is due to serve his time in the
army and she starts for the military
station. Through a series of manly
disguises she succeeds in staying at
the barracks, largely by the trick OF
making love to one of the lieutenants
AS the comedy progresses, Andre
Claire and Freddy Meline appear at
the barracks and as result of toe
many explanations and prevarications
on the part of Mile. Mischief they are
put under arrest as military prison

however, London is far behind. Here
it would seem that all the brains of
makers are put only into the valuable
things. In Paris the .trifles seem to
be considered quite as carefully and
finished as nicely. Another point
is the superorty of the packing of
trifles, which in French and American
shops is so attractively done, even to
the colored string and catches. In
the bonbon and chocolate business,
where appearance tells most, one is
almost safe to conclude that the most

SALARY OF $4,000 LOOKS LIKE
AMPLE SUM FOR HIGH
OFFICIAL.
Most People Imagine Sum Can 3
Saved, But Investigation Shows
Different Status.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June IL
When President Taft took the oath
of office on March and became presi-
dent of the United States, he did so at
a salary of $4,000 a year
Many persons, doubtless, imagine
that of this amount the frugal presi
dent will lay by a neat little sum, SO
that when he becomes a private citi-
zen he will not for some time at least,
have to worry about the future,
At matter of fact, it is likely the
president will leave the White House
not very much richer than when he
entered, unless he should max judicious
investments in the meantime. IT is
said that Theodore Roosevelt spent
more than his salary in upholding the
dignity of his high office. 1t is costly
to be president of the country, it IS
declared most of the executives SAL
airy is eaten up by expense. Just how
the chief executive of the nation
spends his money, however, it will be
interesting to learn.
When President Taft took his trunk
into the White House he knew of a
few things that would cost him moth
ing-the house which should setter
him, the fuel to keep him warm in WIN
ter and the gas and electricity with
which the house would be lighted
His living expenses, he knew, must
be paid out of his own pocket What
they would be, he realized, would &C.
pend upon the scale of magnif1cence
on which he entertained; that there
must inevitably be entertainments, and
entertainments fitting in their splendor
to the Importance of the country he
served. He knew there would be teas,
musicals, balls, state dinners, often
costing $1,000 or more.
Of course, President Taft knew these
things But it is not to be assumed they
bothered him. No one places the pres
idency of the country on commercial
basis or regards it as money-maklng

WHAT 1T COSTS
TO BE PRESIDENT

government will supply free of cost
many other services required.
Should the president or his family
become i'll there will be no doctors
bills. The regular surgeons and doctors
of the army or navy will respond to
any call of the president, who, as COM
mander- in chief of the army and navy.
is their superior. In case of death, the
government would bury the president,
and perhaps pay his widow a pension
for life of $4,000 a year.
If there are to be any repairs made
in the White House it will cost the
president nothing. Mrs. Taft need
simply call upon the engineer officer
of the army, who is also employed as
the superintendent of buildings and
grounds, and he will see to the repair
ing of a roof, or remedy a defect in
the heating appadatus.
When President Roosevelt moved into
need of repairs. 1t was compared to
fiat located over a museum. The state
dining room was draughty, the fur
nishings soiled and faded, the furniture
Fashioned
Emphatically, Mr.. Roosevelt declared
that the president of a great country
should live in a style BETTING the dig
nifty of his position. The cabinet lis
tened to him and agreed. The White
House was remodeled. new furniture
was bought and the place took on
new appearance.
Mr.. Taft, as presiuent will have $685.
900 at his disposal each year for fur
nishings for the White House. SIM
liar amount will be allowed for re-
pairs. There will also be allowed s4,-
600 for taking care of the grounds, $500
for greenhouses and $4,000 for fuel.
Of course, the president will have to
defray nearly all expenses of enter
tanning. His affairs must be elaborate
to a greatt degree. Now, while he may
snend 81 600 or more for each of his
state banquets, the flowers for the
decorations will cost him nothing. Yet
this is a mere bagatelle. The music,
supplied by the Marine band, will also
be free.
In the great state dining room MI
Taft is able to entertain 100 guests
BEFORE President Roosevelt had the
White House remodeled the room ac-
commodated only forty. Of necessity
tho president must entertain largely. 1t
is said that during his term Presi-
dent Roosevelt never took meal at
