Rally For Next Tuesday

AS announced in last weke's WHIG
there will be rally for Statewide
Prohibition in the NJ. f. Church at
hlkton on Tuesday next, April 27, at
: p. m. The principal speaker will be
the Hon. john q. Wool.ey, famed the
world over as temperance orator.
Dr. James Strong, author of "Our
Country, and himself a noted lee
turer, and orator, says of Mr.. Wool
ley
"llon John g. WooIley is as good as
a dose OF twenty grains Of quinine.
lie is tonic. A man who grasps a
principle and then holds to it and
fights for it regardless of all cost and
consequence, renders a service to the
world quite apart from the value of
the principle which he upho!ds. In
the, midst of mob of time-servers
such a man renews our faith in human
nature and rallies us to the eternal
yerlties. Mr.. Woolley's addresses are
full Of principle and pith, of wisdom
and of wit"

Manager Feehly, of Elkton has been
more fortunate than the managers of
most of the other clubs in selecting
his players, as practically all of them
Oxford, of the Tri-County League, live
that there is some exceptionally good
material in the Cecil county seat this
spring, and the fact of the team being

have the effect of increasing interest

Cecil County High School Athletics

The Cecil County High School jour-
neyed to Sudlersville last Saturday
and defeated the High School team
of that place in hotly contested dual
meet. Schaffer, with Captain Lind
say. at his heels, both of the C. C. H.
S. team, finished at least five yards
ahead in the 100 yards dash. The other
races, particularly the mile relay, were
close and interesting. Score 18 to 16
points.
The victory at Sudlersville has
aroused greater interest in track and
field events at the school, and the boys
are training daily getting in shape
for the Tome and Delaware meets.
The prospects are exceedingly bright
for a winning team. Schaffer, Lind
say and Work probably will be the
sprinting mainstays, Moore and Cor
rlden should take care of the half.
Taggart and Corridean are sure point
winners in the high jump as is Ayerst
and Palmer and Arbuckle in pole
vault. Smith, manager of baseball,
has been developing rapidly as
broad-jumper, and should figure in
this event, while Dunbar and Taggart
are taking the hurdles nicely. In the
shot-put, Giles and Schaffer show
most promise. Among the others out
for places are-W. Corriden, Terrell.
Reynolds, w. Lindsay, Simmons, Lus-
by, Dunbar, Trimble. j. Moore. w.
Mcguire, Sprinkle and Gonce.
The baseball team of the High
School defeated the North East H. S.
team on the latter's grounds. last Sat
urday, by 10 to l score. The C. C.
H. S. boys played good game in all
departments. Score by innings was
as follows.
c. C. H. SO 31O2 OO4 4O-1O 9 0
N. E. H.S.0 0 0 00 0 0 O. 12 6

County Option Fails

1t is matter for surprise in many
minds that the bill providing for
county local option in Pennsylvania
was defeated in the lower branch of
the Legislature on Wednesday, 7S to
l2S, 1O4 votes being necessary to pass
a bill.
The measure had the backing of
Governor Brumbaugh, who, in the hot
fight that has been waged since Janu-
ary, lined up with the "drys".
In the past few weeks State wide
campaign has been waged, both sides
bombarding the people with oral and
printed arguments for and against the
measure.
An effort to secure the adoption of a
local option plank in the Republican
platform last fall failed, but Mr..
Brumbaugh. the party candidate for
Governor, spoke in every county in
the State and pledged himself to fight
for a law giving each of the 81 coun-
ties the privilege of voting on the
question

Auto Drops Forty Feet

Speeding at a 3O-mile clip, an auto
mobile in which S. c. Kemp, A. f. Ma
her and NJ. e. Maher. of New York
city, were returning to their homes,
r.unged from a bank south of Char
lestown, Tuesday, and landed on the
tracks of the Pennsylvania railroad 40
feet below.
The men were found shortly after
the accident in an unconscious condi-
ton. A fast southbound train was
stopped and the injured men taken to
the Havre de Grace Hospital.
The machine was running at too
high speed to take the sharp curve
at the bridge entrance, and plunged
through the guard fence and down
the bank to the track, where it was
sldeswiped by train before the engi
neer could stop.

Cecil county people are quite fami-
liar with and extensive patrons of the
old and we'll known Ross store. which
for many years has been located at
21O Market ST., Wilmington, Del. The
business was established by the late
Daniel Ross, fifty years ago. The son
of the founder, Howard D. Ross, has
just secured longtime lease on the
property at 615 Market street, run
ming through to Shipley, where under
the firm name of d, Ross & Son Co,

Forest Fires In Cecil

Monday fire that started at the
Russell farm on the North East river,
about three miles below North East,
spread with great rapidity through
woods and sedge fields and by night
had burned over a vast acreage, de-
stroying much valuable timber and
threatening dwellings, and barns in it's
path. Several buildings caught fire
but We're saved from destruction by
the men of the neighborhood who
fought the fire, which wa sonly check
ed by back-tiring after it had covered
an area four miles long and half
mile to two miles wide. including the
big timber on Black Hill and esti-
mated at 2500 acres. The fire was not
thoroughly controlled until the work
ers were aided by heavy shower that
fell in that section Tuesday afternoon.
The loss, it is thought, will run into
thousands of dollars.
The Craigtown section between
Perryville and Port Deposit, was the
scene of a woods fire on Monday which
threatened the destruction of the vii
lage. Many automobiles rushed to
the scene with fire fighters, who with
hundreds of men from the neighbor-
hood succeedd in controlling the
flames.
Asbury NJ. E. Church was afire, but
was saved. The home of Levi Patter-
son was in flames a number of times.
Blythedale school was dismissed and
stand was made to save that building
and the church at that point.
At Rock Springs, north of Port De-
posit, forest fire ragged for several
days. Monday night the Susquehanna
Valley was Illuminated by big fire
on the Hartford Hills, north of Castle
ton and east of Darlington. All of that
country was drafted to fight the fire.
Another fire ragged east ofDelta, in
York county.

investigation of his mental condition.
