Isaac, attorneys for George E. Wright filed a
suit in the Circuit Court here against Frank
x. Hooper, of Glenarm, claiming $1,000

who is a carpenter and lives at Towson, claims
that last November he was riding in buggy
ON the Loeb Raven road near the residence of
Mr.. D. H. Rice, when Mr.. Hoopers automo.
bile approached, and the plaintiff alleges that
he beckoned to Mr.. Hooper to stop, but the
latter failed to do so and the result the horse
became frightened and plunged over post
and-ra fence. Mr. Wright says that he was
thrown from the buggy and seriously injured:
Mr.. Hooper last week secured judgment
against Baltimore city for $1,000 for injuries
received by his automobile going down an

on the Merryman's lane approach to Stony
Run bridge. John C. Hutchinson, of Phila-

Gardenville, 18th Dlstrict.-A young

"calicoing' at Hamilton the other evening.
He reached the gate of the young lady's home
and was about to enter with easy familiarity,
when he was startled to see ferocious bull
dog glariDg at him from the porch. Hesitating
to enter the lair of such beast, he remained
on the safe side of the fence and sought to APP
pease his majesty with gentle whistles and
soothing words, but old Bull stood firm. AT.
ter about fifteen minutes spent in this way the
young gentleman thought he had the monster
hypnotized, so staring steadily into the gIarine
eyes and gently whistling the while, he began
to cautiously open the gate when the door
opened and the silvery tones of his hearts
desire 1oated out to him: Come in, Mr.. -
he won't bite; he's plasterparis dog.'

Raspeburg, 14th District.-On Friday of
last week an outbuilding on the farm of Messrs.
Alex. Mccormick & Sons. near here, was totally
destroyed by fire. The building, which of late
years had been used as smokehOuse, was filled
with nearly all the meat from the winters kill
ing and that, with nearly 40 gallons of coal oil,
was burned. Just how the fire originated it
was impossible to learn. The building, which
was IL by 16 feet, was one of the Oldest in this
part of the county. It was built in the year 1902
by the late George Councilman out of huge
chestnut logs and was put together with mortar
and tenents, not having nail in the entire
structure. At that time the house was built
for loom house and several looms were placed
therein. The sheep that were raised on the
farm were sheared and the wool combed until
the right texture, and then run through looms
and the finest fabrics we're then woven from
it. Mr.. H. Clifton Mccormick still has in his
possession several of the old shearing combs
and prizes them very highly.
The congregation of st. Matthias P. E.
Church, of this community, is having the
church raised 1t had been built on concrete
foundation and the proper drainage was not
secured
