A SPLENDID
CELEBRATION
Snow Hill Does Herself Proud
With A Beautiful Parade, and
Brilliant Fireworks.

The celebration in Snow Hill last
Tuesday in honor Of the great Demo
cratic victory Of November 9Th was q
grand affair. The town was beautifully
decorated, the parade was splendid
one. composed Of gaily caparisoned
horses. mounted by ladies'. men, and
boys and beautifully decorated automo-
biles. The Snow Hill Band and the
Greenbackville Band furnished music.
After the parade everybody struck
out for the oyster roast. which was held
alongside the Waterworks power house
on Green Street. There were plenty of
oysters for everybody. The roast was
in CHARGE of Mr.. William II. Richardson.
who, with several assistants. waited
upon the people promptly. and furnished
them with good Chincoteague Bay oys-
tiers.
Promptly at $50 O'Clock in the even
ing the town burst forth in magnificent
illumination; lanterns and candles by
the thousand made the scene such a
brilliant one as will not soon be forgotten.
1t was no doubt. the most beautiful
illumination Snow Hill has ever shown.
And the fireworks They were great
They were surprise in their magniii-
cence, and the vast concourse Of peo-
pie from the surrounding country. who
witnessed the brilliant scene. felt well
paid for their stay with US.
The entire celebration was orderly and
most cheerful. Middle aged people will
remember il as a most delightful occas-
ion in honor of great victory of the
people over the trusts and evil combi-
nations of capital. The children will
remember it as a celebration of the
occasion when the Democrats once more
came back to rule the country for many
years. They will remember it as the
beginning of new era. when all of the
various elements, which formerly made
up the Democratic party came together,
and in one accord buried their differ
ences. and united in one solid phalanx
for the future warfares of the Democ-
racy.
There was splendid feeling last
Tuesday among the people. The old
men were glad that their hopes of the
past were realities. and they were once
more celebrating the election of a
Democratic President. and the young
men were glad that they had hand in
doing it.

Steamer POCOmOke Struck
Rocks and Sprung A Leak

On her way from Pocomoke City to
Baltimore the steamer Pocomoke. of the
Baltimore, Chesapeake and Atlantic
Railway, was run aground on the POGO
moke flats, in Pocomoke Sound. Satur-
day about noon. because of leak. Capt.
S. c. Hall sent word TO Baltimore that
the steamer was leaking. but stated that
there were no passengers aboard and
that all the crew were safe.
The steamer left Pocomoke City early
in the morning and stopped at the river
ports to take on freight. After leaving
Sheltown she was compelled to pass
over the "Muds, as the flats are known,
and while making her way through the
shallow water struck some obstruction
that opened several seams.
AT this point the channel at low wa
ter is not more than four feet deep.
The Pocomoke draws five feet of water
and was compelled to force her way
through the mud. She got through the
shadows and was about toturn her course
to Onancock when fireman rushed on
deck and reported to Captain Hall that
the steamer was aleak.
There was some excitement aboard
among the crew when it was learned
the boat was leaking, but it was soon
quieted by the Captain. who assured all
on board that there was no danger. All
remained on board. and the Captain soon
stopped the leak and on high tide con-
tinued his trip to Baltimore.

ThInus Fish Can See.

1t is doubtful If fish can distinguish
forms outside the water. but they I'M
Questionably can see moving objects
at considerable distance. Their In
stinct teaches them to fee from
strange moving things and from shad.
Ows thrown on the water by persons
moving along the waterside or by
birds flying over The proof that they
cannot see the outlines of forms suf-
f1ciently we'll to distinguish between
animate and inanir,ate objects, is that
they will show no more fear of an
angler standing perfectly still in the
water, than they will of tree or other
harmless object, That their sight is
keen in the water is evidenced by the
fact that game fishes, that prey on
their fellows, do much of their feeding
at night. pursuing and capturing min
nows and other small fish in deep,
dark holes.

POOR AS A CHURCH MOUSE
Since Confetti Came Into Use, the
Saying Has More Meaning Than
at Former Times.

The sexton of a fashionable New
York church was sweeping into a
large mound the bright purple, red
and yellow discs of confetti which lit
tered the church entrance and steps.
This month" he said, II have had
already 35 weddings in my church.
And at every one of these weddings
paper confetti was thrown at the
bride instead of rice.
The confetti fashion is very well
come to US sections. When rice was
used our churches were overrun with
mice. The saying, AS poor as
church mouse, was then meaningless.
Why, in my church, where weddings
are SO popular, several hundreds of
mice-fat chaps they were, too
found an ample food supply in the
rice that was sprinkled over the
brides.
Now that rice has been aban-
doned for paper confetti, these mice
have all disappeared. They were
starved out. They couldn't live on
paper"
Bending with difficulty to collect
few obstinate pieces of the bright pa
per confetti that stuck to the floor,
the old sexton added:
"Of course. these bits of paper are
much more awkward for me to sweep
up than rice. But, even so, hope the
confetti fashion has come to stay"

KINDLY OLD BAVARlAN RULER
Ample Reasons Why Duke Max Was
Popular Within and Without
His Domlnlons.

I Duke Max of Bavaria had no greater
delight than leaning over the counter
of some small shopkeeper. talking COS
sip or purchasing toys for his great
granddaughter In Austria. Innumer-
able stories are told illustrating his
character. r. H. Goldschmidt, a
wealthy banker Of Frankfort, was once
3ourneying to Vienna. Opposite him
on the velvet cushion of the first class
car sat an old gentleman. whose dress
and looks betrayed no uncommon
rank. Are you on pleasure trip"
asked the bankers vis-a-vis. Eyes"
answered the latter, 81 am going to
visit my daughter, who. thank God,
fortunately married the Banker Vile
ner In Vienna" How strange" re-
piled his companion; "the incentive
to my trip is the same. ! am going
to visit my daughter in Vienna. Thank
God: she, too, Is rather fortunately
married to the emperor of Austria"
The dukes pocketbook was open
to all. Many a poor creature in that
Catholic city told off beads for good
Duke Max" and blessed his name.
A disciple of old Baltazarina, whose
art had once charged the ballet low
ers of music, having grown old in her
profession, was unable to get employ
ment. In despair she wrote to Duke
Max, giving an account of her situa-
ton. His secretary handed him the
letter with the remark: "She deserves
nothing; she has lived a fast life"
Then" answered his highness, "she
will miss her former splendor so much
the more" and, sitting down, he wrote
her a letter, enclosing money, and
signed From an admirer Of your art"

ONE THING RIGIDLY BARRED
Seemingly Small Point That Threat.
ened to Disturb Etiquette of
Royal Procession.

There is just one thing the law
abiding citizen may not do when
watching a royal procession in Lon
don, and my wife, through attempting
to do it, mighty soon found out what
it Is" said the traveller. There was
marrow-piercing wind to chill us
and icy slush lay thick on the pave
ments that day We stood to see the
king go by. After lettering around
for few minutes in a vain endeavor
to keep her feet warm my wife folded
a newspaper and stood on that The
policeman at her side looked on in
kindly disapproval.
Mustn't do that he said
"Of course she asked, Why not?
Looks bad said he. III you was
back in the crowd it wouldn't make so
much difference, but right In the front
row it's against the rules to throw a
scrap of paper on the ground
my wife glanced at the long line of
muddy shoes of all colors, sizes and
conditions, and wondered how one edge
of white paper could damage the dis
play, but the policeman's tone pre-
cluded argument SO she picked up the
paper"

SALT PUT TO VARIED USES
Invaluable to Mankind Though as a
condlment II Should Be EN-
ployed sparingly.

If food Is tasteless without salt, II is
ruined with too much. Unappetizing
cooking is often due to guesswork.
A level teaspoonful of salt is sufficient
for a quart Of soup, sauce, or vege-
tables.
Salt used once day is an excellent
dentrifrice, tending to keep off tar
tar. 1t is said to retard receding
gums.
A half teaspoonful of salt added to
q cup Of hot water-which many per-
sons take each morning-will make it
palatable.
DO not gargle with salt water,
Throat specialists consider it injuri-
Gus to the tender mucous membrane
of the nose.
Salt water rots the hair, SO never
fail to rinse with fresh water after
sea bathing.
To set color In wash materials and
embroidery cottons soak them in
strong salt water.
An excellent tonic for nervous peo-
pie is to take salt rubs twice day.
AS sea salt dissolves slowly, some of
1t can be kept in solution in a glass
Jar to be ready when needed.
When a child is inclined to bow
legs or to have a weak back, rub it
night and morning with strong salt
water
A faded carpet is freshened If
wiped off with wet cloth wrung from
strong salt water. Sprinkle floor with
dampened salt and sweep well.
Bad dyspepsia can be helped by dis
solving pinches of salt on the tongue
after eating, or when there is a sense
Of oppression.
