Since the earliest civilization, .

Ironclub began to wear headgear,
their respective wives began to make

For Good Roads.

Good Roads was the shibboleth OF
large delegation Of prominent Berliners
and Ocean Cityites, who appeared before
the County Commissioners last Tuesday
afternoon and asked for the co-opera-
ton of the Commissioners in having the
macadam roads extended at once to
Ocean City. OF course this work is to
be done by the State and under the su-
pervislon Of the State Road Commission.
but the people of the upper end of the
county wanted the Commissioners TO
know that they appreciated their inter-
est in the road question and did not
want to act in any way against the
Commissioners Mr.. Orlando Harrison
in his address to the Commissioners
read letter from Mr. Walter b. Miller.
who has just been appointed one of the
members of the State Road Commission
in which Mr.. Miller said that he was
very much in favor Of the State build
ing a road from Salisbury to Ocean City
and that he would use whatever in
fluence he had to that end. He said
that Governor Goldsborough would be
in Berlin Saturday afternoon on an
inspection trip of the roads that have
been built and those contemplated. and
it would be well for a delegation Of
interested citizens to meet him there
and make known their desires. This
will be done.
The Commissioners were also asked
10 give much attention to the dirt roads
in the upper end of the county. as they
badly need scraping. rounding in the
center and ditching.

WOMAN DIPPED
IN POT OF TAR
Her Mode Of Living Offended
~ Ocean City People

IpceNed because a woman who had
been warned by the local authorities
several months ago to leave the town
for the good of public morals persisted
in making her abode at Ocean City a
mob. said by the woman herself to have
consisted of about 80 persons. and which
others estimate at perhaps half that
number broke into the house Thursday
night, took her from her bed. marched
her about a quarter Of mile TO the
outskirts. where fishermen have their
camp. and dipped her several times in
the pot used for tarring the nets. After
each dipping the woman would be taken
out and stood on draining board, and
when. in the opinion Of the mob, she
had been sufficiently punished. she was
allowed to 60. The tar pot is about
three feet deep. and the tarring was
therefore most thorough. IL Is also
alleged that on the way to the scene of
the dipping the victim was kicked and
otherwise brutally treated. but this re-
port cannot be sustained. Ten men,
half of the fishing crew of Thomas 4
Mumford, of Ocean City. believed by
the authorities to have been implicated
in the tarring OF Mary Holman. have
deserted their places and left for parts
unknown. Sheriff George A. Harrison
has the name Of all the parties who
took part in the attack. and warrants
have been issued by Magistrate Sidney
c. Jones for eight OF the crew. Frank
Gray. captain of one of the fishing
crews, is said to have been the leader Of
the party. and the man who forced an
entrance to the woman's residence by
breaking open the doors and windows.
Sheriff Harrison declares that he will
get the men il they return to Worces
ter County. The reason the men were
not arrested before they left was be-
cause of the tieup as 10 magistrates.
Mr.. Benson, who issued the first writs,
was appointed by Governor Goldsbor-
ough. but was not confirmed by the
Senate and the States Attorney noti-
fed Sheriff Harrison that he had better
get new warrants as the ones issued
were not legal. The delay in getting
new warrants gave the men every
chance to escape.

Death Of Mrs. ThOS. P. SeIby

Mrs. Thomas P. Selby died very sud-
ddply in Salisbury on Thursday. where
she, had been taken the same day for an
operation at the hospital. Mrs. Selby
had been sufferer for a long time.
She ykturned home from Philadelphia
hospital several months ago. where she
wss operated upon and where she lay
between life and death for several days.
That shS recovered sufficiently TO be
able to return home was considered
something only little less than mi
raculous.
Mrs. Selby was the second wife of
Thomas P. Selby. Esq. Her maiden
name was Hattie May. She was resi-
dent of Philadelphia when Mr.. Selby
took her for his bride. and where her
family still reside.
Mrs. Selby was about So years of age.
She had a splendid disposition. was a
loving, cheerful helpmate to her hus-
band, was a good Christian woman,
who has been released from her great
suffering and has entered into that home
eternal where there is no sorrow. pain
or death.
The bereaved husband and relatives
have our sincere sympathy in their loss.
At this hour of going to press the
arrangements have not been made for
the funeral.

John Walter Smith Hospital. Sena-
tor Smith did not vote on this PROPOSE
ton, but it was carried by the other
members Of the board with enthusiasm
They regarded il as tribute to Senator
Smith, who has been the father and the
founder of this sanatorium. Ii was he
who secured the original appropriation
that enabled the beginning to be made
and from that time to this his interest
in the work has been unceasing.
1t has been largely through his efforts
that it has developed into the splendid
institution it now is, and there is gen.
eral recognition among those who are
interested in or connected with the work
that the credit for the establishment as
well as for the development Of this in
valuable Maryland institution is due to
Senator Smith. The present board of
managers was first elected when the
institution was established. and it has
been reelected ever since.
Every available place in the sanator-
ium is now occupied. and when the new
hospital is ready for occupancy every
vacancy there will be taken within a
week The pressure upon the board
of managers for admission is tremend-
Gus, and great many more patients
could be accommodated if there was
room.
