Of the u s Land department. in 1875.

FRANK BAKER BUYS FARM.
Base Ball Hero Purchases Seventy
Acre Tract in Delaware.

j. Franklin Baker, the home-run
maker, put 81, 300 of his worlds series
money to good use last week,
when he bought seventy acre farm
from Mrs. Emma Tarbuton, a neighbor
of his, near the Maryland line. The
man whose big stick beat the Giants in
the recent series for the worlds cham
pionship lives in Trappe, Nd, which is
close to the Delaware line, and certain
ly near enough for him to drive a ball
from one state into the other. He has
a fine 200 acre farm on the Maryland
side of the line, and his new property
is on the road that winds past his old
farm. Now both Delaware and Mary
land are claiming the great home-run
maker of the Athletics.
Baker enjoys a great reputation for
thriftiness, and even the crankiest old
hayseeds in this district now reckon
that baseball'isn't a bad business if
one can make the success of it that
Johnny Baker has made. Baker. how
ever, can pillow as well as play ball.
and can swing a fail as well as he can
WELD a bat. Baker has profted at
farming, and the folk hereabouts are
beginning to think that when the next
worlds series is played all the capital
lists vii not be in the grandstand.

PUBLIC CELEBRATION.

Mr.. Editor:
| notice that there is a move
ment on foot to hold a banquet
at $500 per plate to celebrate the
beginning of the Trolley line. In
my humble opinion the public who
are paying the tax, that is the
rank and file, the common people,
the man who pays the freight is
the man who having voted his
mite, is the man, together with-the
"Big Ones" who should partici-
pate in such celebration and
instead Of inviting a few (some
twenty-five), why should not the
promoters of the $500 banquet
announce a popular $1.0O dinner.
where every citizen could join in
celebrating the commencement OF
the Trolley car service. An an
nouncement such as the above pro-
claimed broadcast would not only
exemplify pure democracy, but
show the ordinary citizen such as
you and l and our friends that the
celebration is intended for the
public at large and not for the
few. For the public welfare, for
the public good, and (when | say
for the public) l mean the rich and
poor, the citizen Of every walk OF
life. It seems to have become the
! custom that whenever any celebra
ton Of any public achievement is
to be made that instead of pub
IL: and popular celebration, din
ner where the favored few who
possess the required $500 or
$1,000 gather together and con-
graduate each other-a mutual
admiration society.
Mr.. Editor the theory is wrong
and as an advocate Of the popu-
lar will of the people, that the
humble $4,000 tax payer who
voted for the Trolley as well as
tn, 100000 tax payer who did
i likewise. / think that if there is
! any celebration to be given, the
celebration should be a popular
! orc and not limited to the moned
few.
