ADOPTS
BILL FOR $50 BEER
Turns Down Ratification Of
voIstead Act Pending Ruling
BY Supreme Court.

ANNAPOLIS, Nd. March 1e.-Long
strides were taken by the house yes
terday in reaching settlement OF
the Irritating controversy which has
stirred Maryland since the prohibi-
ton amendment and the Volstead act
went into effect on January 10.
The nrst step was the rejection OF
the Mcbride bill applying the Vol
stead act 10 Maryland. The vote was
80 for and 81 against the bill.
The second step was taken after a
long and tedious debate, when the
friends and constitutional directors
reached an agreement on the bill per
hitting the manufacture and sale OF
beer containing 3h per cent alcohol,
the bill introduced by the majority
members OF the temperance commit
tee and approved by Governor Richie
in a message on Tuesday. As origi-
nally framed. the bill failed to take
cognizance of the Constitution OF the
United States. In other words. the
bill was declared by it's foes 60 be a
nuilification of the Constitution. On
this feature the debate waged long,
with Mr.. Gambrill, taking the lead In
the claim that the bin ignored the
supremacy Of Federal over State
rights.
This objection was removed by an
amendment which recognizes the In
volatility OF the Federal Constitu-
ton.
The second step toward an under
standing was reached in making
more explicit the clauses OF tho bill
making 1t imperative II the Supreme
Court OF the United States upholds
the prohibition amendment and the
volstead act. II any phase of the
VoIstead law Is invalidated by the
court, the Maryland bill. which seems
to be destined to pass, will become
effective. In other words, II the Vol
stead act is put out of commission.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured

by local applications, they cannot reach
the diseased portion of the ear There is
only one way to cure catarrhal DEAFNESS
and that is by a constitutional remedy.
Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in
famed condition of the mucous lining of
the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is
infamed you have a ruplblng sound or i'm
perfect hearing, and when it is entirely
closed Deafness is the result Unless the
Inflammation can be reduced and this tube
restored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever. Many cases of
deafness are caused by catarrh, which is
an infamed condition of the mucous sur
faces Halls Catarrh Medicine acts thru
the blood on the mucous surfaces of the
system.

RIVALS WINNING STREAK
 BROKEN BY LEBANON

The Baltic Rivals after winning 15 straight games dropped two games last week. On Saturday Lebanon broke the winning streak by the score of 3 to 1 and in Sterling Sunday, Ster- ling won by the score of 10 to 1. The Rivals took a big slump in their bat ting as they only collected five hits on Saturday and two on Sunday. The umpiring in both places was way off the mark. The umpire in Lebanon ad- mitted he could not see the plate and the home club got the best of the de- cisions and Sunday the umpire in Sterling admitted he did not know the rules. The Rivals don't wish to blame the umpires for the loss of the gaines but would like a square deal.
 Saturday the Rivals play in Glasgo and on Sunday they play the Wind ham club on their own grounds in Baltic.
