Mr.. Mann Sets himself Right on the
Road Question.-In an interview few days
ago Mr.. Henry P Mann, president of the
Board of County Commissioners, said that the
statement made that be is an advocate of the
Belair road route from Baltimore to Belair is
entirely wrong and that he never intimated
nor suggested preference for either the Belair
or Hartford routes. He further said:
II have remained entirely neutral on the
subject of the selection of the routes to be i'm
proved in the county l have contended that
the proper thing to do would be to distribute
the money whereby all turnpikes would be
benefited by an equal distribution ofthe funds,
but under the provisions Of the law l under
stand that the Commission is not permitted to
distribute the money along the lines suggested,
but must build one in and-Out' road through
the county.
THAT being the case, there is no doubt in my
mind that the Philadelphia road would be the
most logical road TO be determined on and &C
cepted for improvement by the State Commits
sion, as it is through road on the eastern side
of the county. 1t is one of the Oldest turnpikes
in the country, unincumbered by railway
tracks or franchises of any kind, which ira
verses or intersects the most populous part OF
Hartford county. Forinstance, it passes through
Perryman, Aberdeen and Havre de Grace and
connects at the latter point with the old rail-
way bridge which is being reconstructed over
the Susquehanna river by the Pennsylvania
Railroad Company into highway bridge, to
connect with Perryville on the Cecil county
shore The Philadelphia road is therefore the
most advantageous route for selection"

Glenarm, 18th District.-On Sunday last,
March 21st, over forty members of Bethany
Lodge, /. o. o. F., of Glenarm, attended SER
vice at Fork NJ E. Church. when the pastor,
Rev. Martin L. Beall preached one of the best
of the many sermons il has ever been the plea
sure of the lodge to listen to. The courtesy
shown by the members of the church was
much appreciated by the Odd Fellows. Mr..
Beall is member fthe order and takes great
interest in the work He is also representa-
tive from Bethany Lodge to the Grand Lodge
of Maryland. which will meet in annual ses-
SIGN April 10TH
committee has been appointed and is now
working on plans to celebrate the Goth ami
versary of the order, which will occur April g.
It seems hardly possible that in ninety years
an order composed originally of five men could
grow to 2, 900, 900, but this is what the member
ship numbers today. When we see the men
who are at the head of the order there is little
wonder at this great progress.
In this State the present head is John W..
Young of Cumberland, one of the best known
men in that community, and with William w.
Varney, a prominent member Of the bar, to
succeed him in April and Dr. John s. Green
to succeed Mr.. VarDey later, the order bids fair
to continue to prosper in this State for some
time to come. ID.

Perry Hall, 18th Observation-Disclosures it is
three weeks since the destructive storm of
March 4th, still we are without telephone COM
munication with Baltimore. There is gang
of men working toward Baltimore from Belair
and have succeeded in reaching this place. The
damage to both wires and poles is so great that
it takes much time to get them in shape again.
Mr.. John G. Halbert well known farmer
of this place, met with serious accident on
Friday of last week. While leading horse
attached to a cart the horse made sudden
plunge over little stream of water. Mr.. Hal
bert was caught between the shaft of the cart
and a fence post, the shaft puncturing him in
the side, crushing several ribs. DR.. H. I. Har-
rison was hastily summoned and ordered Mr..
Halbert sent at once to st. Joseph's Hospital,
where he is resting as well as could be expected.
The Good Roads Commission, accompanied
by delegation from the Belair road, passed
through Perry Hall on Thursday of last week
and was warmly greeted by the residents OF
this place, as well as those of the entire route.
Although it appeared in the Baltimore papers
of that date that two gentlemen, in speaking at
Hamilton Hall the night before the inspection
of the road, said that the tramps would not
even travel the Belair road, and that it only
grows mosquitoes still the Commission risked
It all. However, there happened to be several
tramps on the road that particular day. No
doubt they too had heard that it was to be the
gala day for the Belair road and decided to
turn out. But the mosquitoes were not seen on
that day. Perhaps they were blown west by the
winds and frightened by the waving flags and
the noise of the tin horns. A.
