Says J. Fuller Gloom: "After God
had finished making the rattlesnake,
the toad and the vampire, he had some
awful substance left with which he
made a knocker. A knocker is a two
legged animal with a cork-screw soul,
water logged brain and a combination
backbone wade of jelly and glue.
Where other men have hearts, he car
ries a tumor of decayed principles.
When the knockers comes down the
street, honest men turn their backs,
angels weep tears in heaven and the
devil shuts the gates of hell to keep
him out"

Reports were current yesterday in

VI Carroll county, the incoming Sur

statement OF his political sympathies
in a speech to a number of the Gus

Steele will assume his duties on Feb
ruary /.
III bis speech, it IL stated, MIR.
Steele said that if he had his own
way he would replace all the Repub-
licans i'm the service with Democrats.
However, he is reported to have con
tinued, the men, whether Republic
cans or Democrats, are protected by
the civil-service rules and all they
need to do to keep their positions is
to perform faithfully their duties.
a. a matter or fact, the inspectors
are under the control Of the Collector
OF Customs, 50 far as their positions
are concerned He makes the recon-
mendations OF the Treasury Depart
ment a. to dismissal, disciplining and

8 Lively Ciderists Make Martinsburg
Hump For A While.

Crazed by hard cider, three men
terrorized the western section Of
Martinsburg by firing their guns IT,
discriminatory at people on the
streets, winding up their escapade by
firing two bullets into the body OF
Sydney Scott, colored man and pro
prietor of a 10 al cab line. The young
desperadoes made their way across
the Potomac into Maryland.
They began upon Earl Rodrick, as
he was going west on King Street,
enroute to visit his mother in Rose
mont. After III had gotten about 30
feet past the men, one of them pulled
his gun and blazed away at him from
the rear The bullet passed close to
Mr.. Rodrick
iii the meantime, the three men
turned north on Raleigh street, and
found several colored men, talking
among themselves in a quiet and
peaceable manner Without word
of warning the young desperadoes
opened fire on the colored men. The
first bullet struck Sidney Scott in
the back, the men coming upon MIN
from the rear. Scott Immediately
Whirled and faced the men, only to
receive another bullet, this one en-
tering the lower part OF the groin
and lodging in the thigh. John Basey,
a colored man, who was In the crowd
was then picked out as target by
the desperadoes and a bullet was
fred at Hi head. a. he jumped
away he fell into the gutter, and this
fall probably saved his life, as the
bullet flew over his head and lodged

BAY STEAMER BURNS AL los ARE
RESCUED.
Maryland Destroyed AT Mouth OIL
MagOthy River.

Goodness Oh the part Of the crew
and calmness of the passengers on
board the ship helped to prevent loss
OF life when the steamer Maryland,
of the Baltimore, Chesapeake and At
lantic Line, carrying 10S persons, was
burned almost to the waters edge Off
Mountain Point, at the mouth OF the
Magothy river, shortly after o'clock
Friday morning
After an all-day investigation, a.
fl. Seth, general manager of the
steamship company announced Fri
day night that he felt sure that ev-
eryone on board had been saved. He
said that he had ascertained that
there was rs passengers and 80 mem
bers OF the crew on board and that
an accounting, numerically at least,
had been made for these.
a further investigation of the
wreckage of the burnt steamer after
the fire was under control failed to
disclose the loss of human life, al
though a calf shipped from Snow
Hill, for Baltimore was burned to
death. The monetary loss of the ship
II placed at 100000; on the cargo
at $4,000, while that due to the de-
struction OF wearing apparel, money
and other valuables belonging to
those on board will reach high
mark.

Many fatal cases of kidney disease

FARMERS INSTITUTE
no De Held Here Next Tuesday and
Wednesday.

Under the auspices of the Maryland
Agricultural College q series Oh
Farmers Institutes will b. held at
the following places in this county
next week:
Union Bridge, Monday; Westmins-
Ter, Tuesday and Wednesday; Middle
burg, Thursday; Taneytown, Friday.
Sessions will begin each day at 10
O'Clock a. ia, 1-30 and 4 p. m- At
Westminster the sessions will be
held at Westminster High School at
10 a. M, and 1.30 p. 20. There Will
be no evening session.
A very interesting program has
been arranged by the director or the
Institutes, Dr. Richard .. Hill, as
sisted by DR.. Fl. J. Patterson, presi-
dent " the Agricultural College.
Several specialists of the Agricul-
tural Department, will discuss and
explain the following topics: Corn,
Lime, Wheat, Fruit, Poultry, Market
In, dairying, Farm Manure, Hay,
Grass, Alfalfa and Live Stock Any
other question can be asked, and in
formation gladly furnished
There is absolutely no charge OF
any kind attendant upon these SEES
sions of the Farmers Institutes, as a
substantial sum has been set aside
by the College for this purpose.
1t is remarkable the progress that
has been made i'm intensive farming,
horticulture, dairying, and kindred
Industries Id the last decade, and
more respect il held by the farming
communities for the opinion OF ex-
perts in state and national depart
ments. The question only Of corn
seed selecting, and it, wonderful
benefits, is enough to prove the worth
OF much that Is written for the bene-
fit of the farmer in agricultural mat
tiers.
The Farmers Institutes have done
much to bring to the farmers
throughout the state matters OF great
benefit to them in their work, the
total sum and substance Of which is
the desire for more productivity on
the farm lands of this and other
states. Even now Ii can be seen.
with the great demand for wheat and
the consequent rise in price, the
necessity for greater land areas de-
voted to this cereal, and authorities
state, that even III peace should be
declared i'm Europe, that a good price
will still obtain for our valuable
wheat harvests. There has been q
great shortage Of wheat in foreign
countries, and 1t il to be hoped that
the planting of last year will result
In abundant harvests the coming
summer.
But all these things must be read
and retained, and the lessons learned
by the tillers of our soil. So it Is
necessary not only to know how TIC
do things, but to know when to dc
them as well.

ing to do with It.

In concluding his direct testimony
Mr. Snyder reiterated what he had

Every charge made against him by
