Sham Battle July aoth.

Thursday, July goth. the mountains
about Braddock Heights will ring
with the reports of musketry when a
sham battle between Company A, of
Frederick. with Capt d. John Markey,
as commander, and Company B, of Hag-
erstown. with Capt John Kyd Becken-
baugh as commander, will vie with each
other for the control Of the sub-station at
Braddock. which will represent the
water pumping plant supplying Wash.
ington with water.
The plan is to make the day full
one for the devotees of the life military.
During the day military picnic will be
held aud meals will be served to the
members of the two companies on the
mountain top in genuine military camp
style.
1t IS the plan to have the sham battle
in the evening, probably at O'Clock, or
later and at some point where visitors
to the mountain may see the various
military maneuvers. Adjutant General
Charles F. Macklin has promised to send
TO Frederick 5000 rounds of ammunition.
and this together with the supply on
hand, and held by the companies. will
enable them TO make the battle a
most realistic and spectacular one.

The BOOK OF BOOKS.

No fragment of battle ever survived
so manv battles as the Bible; no citadel
ever withstood so manv hurricanes and
was swept with such Storms. And yet it
stands II has seen the rise and fall of
Daniels four empires. Assyria bequeaths
a few mutilated figures to the riches of
our national museum. Media and Persia,
like Babylon. which they conquered.
have been weighed in the balance and
long ago found wanting. Greece but
family survives in its historical fame.
It's living Greece no more" and the
iron Rome OF the Caesars has long
since ceased to boast And yet the
book that foretells all still survives,
while the nations, kings. philosophers,
systems, asd institutions have all passed
away. The Bible engages mems deepest
thought, is examined by the keenest IN
tellect and stands revered before the
highest tribunals, is more read, sifted
and debated, more devoutly loved and
more vehemently, assailed, more de-
tended and denied, more industriously
translated and given to the world, more
honored and abused than any other book
that the world ever saw. 1t survives all
changes, itself unchanged; it moves all
minds, yet is moved by none; II sees all
things decay yet itself is incorruptible;
it sees myriads OF other books engulfed
in the stream OF time, and yet it is borne
along until the mystic angel plants its
foot in the sea and swears by Him who
llveth forever and ever that time shall be
no more With Isaiah we say: ''All
flesh is grass and all of the goodness
thereof is as the flower OF the held. The
grass withereth, the flower fadeth, but
the word of God shall stand forever"

A rHouGHr FOR MOTHER.


Yes, the summer is past and mother
failed TO get her vacation. And now
comes the fall sewing. the winter gar
ments to be chosen and perhaps made;
the house cleaning with all of It's attend
ant horrors, the picking Of the autumn
daintieS, which will give zest to many
winter feast, and the general manage
ment OF the whole domestic machinery.
so that no little part will become clogged
or It's Squeaking disturb the harmony OF
the home. As summer has brought
mother no vacation, no change OF seen
cry, what wonder. then # her face Is
pale, and her step little slower, her
smile no less sweet but less frequent
than OF old? Every one is sorry for
mothers diSappointments, but all take It
as a matter OF course, as she never COM
plains. So the domestic mill goes grind
ing on until one day there is all confusion
in the households; the machinery is all
swrv, for the hand that guided it has lost
its cunning and has dropped nerveless
by her side. Mother has borne the bur
den too long, it becomes too heavy and
she is crushed beneath IT, Is this not
true picture that we have sketched for
yoe? Is not mother too often left out?
Girls, you know that it is SO. and the
conscious blush rises TO your cheeks and
YOU hang your heads aud are ashamed
of your own SelhShness. We write this
so that you may be more thoughtful OF
your mothers in the future. You will
never regret any sacrifice that you have
made TO tighten her burdens and bring
into her lite all of the sweetness possible.
Many a man has grown eloquent in
thought and word as he recalled his
mother The word means something
different to every man. but it means
much to all men. A man who always
speaks we'll of his mother is generally a
man who can be trusted. We note the
fact that one Of our Vice Presidents in
making a speech several wears ago,
paid beautiful tribute to his mother
The Campaign Committee are now using
that part of a speech with the assertion
that a man who remembered his mother
like that ought to be man who could
be trusted in the public service and this
is what he said:
II think back through the years, both
lean and fat, good and bad, to my ear
lieSl recollection. | saw woman with
an eve that flashes swift as an archangels
wing, and a mouth that breaks with
laughter and hardenS at the sight OF
wrong. singing lullabies; a woman who
with her hand grasping the unseen hand,
walks the brier bordered paths Of life
unashamed, unafrafd, and unharmed
She is clad in garments OF beauty to me.
and age does not soil them. nor years
make them cheap and tawdry. Her
tongue is without guile, having never
been the messenger Of lie. Ii is seven
teen years since her soul went home to
God. and her fingers became to me the
fingers Of an angel; but | have not for
gotten what she said She told me that
there was Santa Claus, and | believed
her But he brings me no longer drums
and flies But he still brings to me the
vision OF my mother and the music Of
that angelic chorus which sang ar crea-
tons dawn and al the hour Of mans re-
demplion."

Counties Must Report to the
State Taxation Conditions.

To arrive at basis and secure gen.
eral review OF the taxation system
throughout the State, the State Tax
Commission has sent out forms of re-
ports to be made as soon as possible
by the Board Of County Commissioners
for every county in Maryland. The re-
ports require the answering of so many
questions that it will probably be several
weeks before replies begin to come in.
AS far as could be learned the Fred
erick County Board of County Commits.
sioners had not received one of these
blank forms.
The questions relate to the local tax
rate. the classification of lands. taxation
in incorporated towns. methods of dis.
covering taxable securities, changes in
assessments. the view of the commis-
sioners on farm taxation and many mat
tiers of detail. Some OF the questions
indicate that one of the chief ends TO
be attained through the reports is the es-
tablishment OF a uniform system OF as
sessment throughout the State. With
the uniform assessment throughout the
State It is generally predicted that the
taxable basis of the county. will soar,
and there should be a corresponding
slump in the tax rate of the county.
