TWO Hartford Men Missing.

All efforts to locate Howard w. Ken
nedy who left his wife and family in
Belair about two weeks ago. have proved
futile. He left without telling his wife
where he was going. He went to livery
stable, secured team and was driven to
Bradshaw Station on the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad. where he boarded train
going toward Wilmington. On the train
he inquired the fare to Philadelphia, but
upon finding the train local one said he
would get off at Havre de Grace. Here
all trace of him was lost.
So far as is known there is no reason
for his sudden disappearance. He had
lived at Belair all his life and is said to
own considerable property. 1t is also
known that he has considerable sum of
money with him.
Spencer Cooper who had been making
his home recently with his son, Fred
Cooper. near Flintville. has also disap-
peared. He left his home about 10 days
ago.

STOLEN WATCHES RECOVERED


Detective Jesse Wister, of Philadelphia,
brought over fifty watches to Rising Sun
on Friday last for Identification. The
watches were those stolen and pawned by
wv. G Ober. who opened repair shop
here some months ago. Detective Wister
was assisted by detective J. Curran in
working up the case against Ober and
collecting the watches from various pawn
shops in Philadelphia.
The Investigations of the detectives
showed Ober to be an old offender. as
pawn tickets were found among his
effects for watches and jewelry from sew
eral towns in which he had worked. dated
two or three years back, but so far as is
known he had never been arrested before.
Ober is now serving term of one year
in Maryland penitentiary.
OF the watches brought to Rising Sun
by detective Wister over forty were identi.
fed and returned to the owners. after
payment of the amount for which they
had been pawned. Several parties who
identified their timepieces. refused to re-
deem them. and these watches were re-
turned to the pawn shops.

Il Shocked Dickens.

Survivors of great railway accidents
do not readily forget the experience.
Charles Dickens did not. when on June
8, 1865. train fell through the bridge
at Staplehurst. England, and the car
riage In which he was travelling hung
over the side. He acted with great
GOODNESS and courage, helping to extri-
cate the wounded and then scrambling
back to rescue the manuscript OF "Our
Mutual Friend" But, though unin-
jured, he never recovered from the
shock. Afterward. when travelling, as
his daughter relates. "he would often
suddenly fall into a paroxysm of fear.
clutch the arms Of the railway carriage,
large beads of perspiration standing
on his face and suffer agonies Of ter
ror." Dickens died on the anniversary
of the accident, five years later.

Blythedale school Exercises.

The closing exercises of the Blythedale
Public School last Friday afternoon afforded
very real pleasure to the guests of the school
who were numerous enough to fill all the
south school room seats. Accordingly the
smaller pupils sat on improvised seats one
side of the room and the larger pupils stood
on the opposite side and the back of the room
when not on the platform or In the north
room, which did service as dressing room.
Not only In the singing of the Christmas
carols but also in the recitations, dialogues,
and exercises the program found a place and
part for every child in the school. It is surely
fortunate in having instructors who thus re-
cognize the latest word in the science of teach
ing and apply it intelligently at time when
there is strong temptation to bring forward
only those particularly gifted for exhibition
purposes. The same wholesome and capable
guidance shows also in the selection of the
different parts OF the well chosen program.
These varied in sentiment, and by no means
omitting humorous touches. all breathed the
Christmas spirit of generous out-giving. of
ministering to others and find ing the bright
ness of life in service rather than in self
seeking.
The children all acquitted themselves we'll,
If anything. the girls with somewhat more OF
vivacity and animation than the boys, which
suggests that the boys must look to their
laurels next year or the girls will get dam
gerous start on them.
Miss Annie Patterson. teacher of the pri-
mary class, who announced the numbers on
the program. played the organ and led the
singing. At the conclusion of the program
and before the children received their pres
ents, Miss Mary Kimball, the principal. made
q pleasing address thanking the parents for
their presence and cooperation in the work
incidental to the entertainment, and in parti-
cular for their cooperation in securing good
attendance during the term, which was the
best the school has ever had.

heavy teams. It resulted in sixty-fve
