plans To Hold Meetings Through.
out the State.

Governor Crothers ON Friday outlined
at the first meeting of the recently appoint
ed Farmers Commission, just what he
expects the commission to do in the way
of improving agricultural interests. He
explained the objects of the commission,
said he wants at least three big gather
ings of farmers this year and advised
those present to go ahead with the work
in a vigorous manner.
The meeting was held at the Governors
Office in the Union Trust Building, Balti-
more, and more than score of the mem
bers were present. Former State Senator
w. Mccullough Brown, of Garrett county,
was made chairman of the commission
and Mr.. Gilmor S. Hammill, secretary.
Those present were.
Messrs. E. P. Cohill, w. Irving Walker,
w. Mccullough Brown, Charles H. Rose,
M. D. Gordon, S. A, Palmer, G. Thomas

Rawlings, Charles w. Michael, William
Tilden, Robert w. Turner, Allen B. Stan
ford, B. Abner Belts, Gilmor S. Hammill,
Robert Miller and R. Claude Dutton.
1t was decided to hold the-6rst meeting

Eastern Shore. Governor Crothers has
plans to make the first meeting rousing
gathering of farmers, at which some

ance at the first meeting, and the Gov
ernor will invite Mr.. Clifford Pinchot and
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson to make

members of the commission, the Gov
ernor said3
''The object of this commission is to
take council together with the purpose of
improving, building up, and bringing to
the front the great agricultural interests
of the state. No state in the Union offers
such a variety Of soil as does the State Of
Maryland. Very few items that go to
make up good meal are not supplied by
Maryland. !"

c. E. Summer Conference.

An innovation in church work in this
State will be the Summer Conference
which is to be held at Pen Mar, July IS
to 20 under the auspices of the Maryland
Christian Endeavor Union. This Confer
ence will be an entirely new feature in
the religious work of Maryland. and the
Christian Endeavor Societies in this
County are interested in having represen-
tatives attend these sessions. The County
Union is making a special effort to get
out large crowd, for all the other Unions
are working to the same end, and the off,
GERS of this County want good represen-
tation. For many years church workers
have thought the beautiful mountains of
the western part of the State would be a
delightful place for Summer meeting,
but this is'the first time it has been at
tempted.

retary of War Oliver on Saturday, and
has transmitted to the War Department
mass of data and photographs to show
that the ice gorge which caused SO much
property loss and personal suffering to
residents-of Port Deposit resulted from
the building of additional piers in the
Baltimore & Ohio railroad bridge across
the Susquehanna river more than year
ago. Attention was called to the fact that
the railroad had not removed the great
mass of temporary piling used in the con-
struction of the piers and it is belived
they were partly responsible for the great
jam of ice that could not get past the
bridge. Mr.. Covington says residents of
Port Deposit claim that these distractions
in the river have caused shoaling and con-
sequent permanent injury to navigation.

Orphans Court.

The Orphans Court met in special session
Tuesday, Judges Simcoe. Merritt and Miller
all present.
The first and final account of Lewis r. Wal
ters. administrator of Noah d. Walters, was
examined and passed. The administrator was
allowed six per cent. commission, after hear
ing before the Court in which Messrs Smith
and Darlington, of Pennsylvania, and Fred
erick T.. Haines appeared for the heirs, and
Omar D. Crothers for the administrator.
The history Of the case is briefly as follows:
Noah d. Walters, u rather eccentric old
gentleman, who resided for some years at
North East, was found dead along the creek
at North East in 1906 He was not supposed to
have had much property, but after his death
it developed that as an heir to the estate Of his
father, George Walters, of Pennsylvania, there
was about $40, to his credit from that estate.
AS he died intestate and was a bachelor with
no nearer relatives, this property went to his
cousins. After a legal battle, the settlement
Of the estate was transferred from Pennsyl-
vania, where there would have been about one
hundred and fifty heirs, to the Jurisdiction of
the Orphans Court for Cecil County. Under
opr laws only twenty-three of these heirs were
entitled to distributive shares, and these
ftwenty-three heirs objected to the payment of
commissions and costs. The Court placed the
administrators commission at six per cent,
and allowed the costs and fees claimed.
