To PLAY For State Championship.

The local High School will line up
against the strong Wicomico County
High School football team on Friday
on the st. Johns College gridiron.
This game will undoubtedly be one Of
the games deciding the State High
School championship and q grueling
contest is expected. The people of
Salisbury will bring over large con-
tingent of rooters to aid their team
to victory. The local lads are in ex-
celIent condition and expect to come
out on top, although the Wicomico
school has somewhat on them in
weight.
Captain Martin. who is playing
right half on the Annapolis team, is
doing remarkable punting for High
School player, and it is expected that
with his ine-plunging ability will
prove a star in Fridays game. New
ton, at quarter, is a good general
and handles the team with the ease
of a veteran. E. Clark, brother to
che st. Johns crack quarterback, is
again in the game and will take his
place at left half. This is a material
help to the team as without exception
Clark is the speediest man in the
aggregation and does well on end runs
and forward passes.
The local lads are under big
guarantee to bring this team from
Eastern Shore to Annapolis and with
the consent of the faculty of the Col
lege, a collection will be made at the
game and every one is requested to
give literally to help defray the ex-
pense.

Ex-GOv. Brown Out Again.

Ex-Governor Brown, of Maryland,
went down from his room in the Wal
dorf, New York, yesterday, for the
first time since DR.. HoIbrook Curtis
performed second operation upon his
nose for the removal Of a polypus.
He did not think it wise to visit the
horse show, although his daughter,
Mrs. Dieterich, has a timbertopper
jumping in the Madison Square Gar
den events. The horse has already
won a third prize in the Garden.
The Ex-Governor, regarding his wound
as very slight, will be able to visit
the show tomorrow. Mrs. Dieterich
is constant visitor upon the ex-
Governor.

BROKER IS LUCKY.
LIchstern Will Clean Up a Million
in Wheat.

Chicago, April 15.-After a years
bitter fighting, while awaiting favor
able developments in the wheat mar
ket, Adolph j. Lichstern now bids
fair to reap a million dollars in prof
its from his manipulation Of May
wheat. = y .a4a
About a year ago Mr.. Lichstern
was reported as having approximately
100000 bushels of May wheat. A
week ago he is supposed to have had
nearly 20, 600, 900 bushels. His hold
ings meantime have varied between
10000, 900 and 3O,000,O 900 bushels. On
this wheat he has been paying carry
ing charges that will approximate ST.
500 a day and was in the hole $4,000
600. Mr.. Lichstern las year was fore
ing the fighting and giving nc quarter.
This year he has been on the de-
fensive and has been forced to buy
continuously to keep the market at
a figure equal to that at which he first
contracted for his May wheat.
At a time when it appeared as II
nothing except the enlistment Of most
unusual influences would help Mr..
Lichstern, there came the reports Of
damage to the soft winter wheat In
the Ohio valley, and prices started
aloft.
The advantage vas grasped quick.
ly as it was offered and Mr.. Lich.
stern began unloading the wheat he
has been carrying through two sea-
sons. and which it looked as though
he would have to carry for still an
other, for within sixty days the next
crop of May wheat will be coming in.

125,OOO AMERICANS GO
TO CANADA IN 1911.
THE YEAR 1912 WILL SHOW A
GREAT INCREASE.

In a report Of the House Committee
fWashington) appears the following:
Canada offers a three-year home
stead upon good land, easily reclaimed
and cultivated, with six months leave
of absence each year and most lenient
regulations"
All Of which is true and 1t Ia now
the part Of the careful reader to con-
slider the opportunities that exist In
Western Canada which, in addition to
the above, are attractive features.
The evidence of these Is found in the
letters contributed by some Of the
settlers. For instance: A former Min.
nesotan, writing from Warner, South
ern Alberta, speaks Of that district.
but what he says, applies generally to
all Of Southern Alberta. He says:
Il have seen six crops, four Of them
were first class, one Of them a very
good crop, and the other a poor crop.
Government statistics for the last fiji
teen years show that this country has
averaged about fifteen or sixteen
inches Of moisture. In 1910 there was
only seven inches, and in 1911 twenty
two inches. The 1909 crop was about
as good as I have seen in this coun-
try and We had about twelve inches Of
moisture, so that l am thoroughly con-
vinced hat with normal conditions,
that is. from twelve to fifteen inches
Of moisture, and with the natural in
crease Of population and immigration,
that Southern Alberta will be n Of
the very best mixed farming districts
in the world. We have good soil, good
water, and a good climate, and alto
gether Just as desirable a country to
live in as Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa. or
Wisconsin"
Hundreds Of letters are on file from
former American settlers, which give
good reasons why the Western Can
ada lands are being settled so rapidly.

COFFEE HURTS
Ono In Three.

1t Is difficult to make people believe
that coffee is a poison to at least one
person out OF every three, but people
are slowly finding it out, although
thousands of them suffer terribly be-
fore they discover the fact.
A New York hotel man says: Each
time after drinking coffee l became
restless, nervous and excited, so that
was unable to sit five minutes in one
place, was also inclined to vomit and
suffer from loss Of sleep, which got
worse and worse.
"A lady said that perhaps coffee was
the cause Of my trouble, ald suggested
that I try Postum. / laughed at the
thought that coffee hurt me, but she
insisted so hard that l finally had
some Postum made. I have been U.s.

I noticed that all my former nervous
ness and irritation disappeared. l be-

From the Capitol City, the Various
State institutions and From
Many Different Parts Of
the Sunshine State.

Murdo.-A large number OF the new
settlers who will file on claims in Mel
lette county are arriving in Murdo
en- route to the newly opened country
and the number is increasing every
day. White River, the place desig-
mated a. the selection point, is an in
land town, most Of the people are
coming to Murdo as the nearest rail-
road point. Autos and livery teams are
making regular trips between MurdO
and White River every day and many
are driving v e the land to mako
their selections so that they may have
a better idea of the land before the
day upon which they have been mott
fed by the government to appear at
the map room. The weather conditions
and roads have been ideal for the To-
Gators and homesteaders this spring,
making it possible for all who wished
to inspect the land to travel over it,
and a large number have taken advan-
tage of this opportunity. Several To-
cal real estate firms as well as others
from neighboring towns who have es-
tablished offices in Murdo have made
lists and descriptions Of the various
tracts of land opon to settlement and
are ready to assist the homesteaders
in selecting the most desirable quar-
tiers of land. Farmers. in this vicinity
are busy with their spring seeding and
the ground is in the best possible con-
dition. The rains last fall and the
snow during the winter months have
put much moisture into the ground
and the farmers seem much encour-
aged this spring. Those who sowed
winter wheat-and there was a large
acreage of 1t put in last fall-report
that it is coming along fine, the winter
having been almost perfect for such
q crop.
