cost Edward 3. Baltzer, aged eighty
years. -four and feed merchant Of
Shanksville. near the mining town
of Berlin. Just 1856 to have his for
tune told.
Mrs. Peter Adams, a gypsy con-
nected with q carnival company, ID
charged with larceny. She dropped
into the store and found Baltzer at
his desk. She informed him he had
some money and told>him to produce
1t; that 1t was necessary for him to
have 1t in his hand in order that she
might tell his fortune.
Baltxer produced q roll containing
$495. She took the money and placed
it under q colored handkerchief. Aft
or q short pow-wow, she returned the
bills and told him to put them in his
vest pocket.
The proceeding was amusing to
Baltzer, but q short time later he de-

Special Dispatch to The Star.

BALTIMORE. August 6.-With the
closing of the lists two weeks off.
candidates for places to be filled at
the primary on September 9 are be-
ginging to file with the board of
election supervisors. All indica-
tions are that the democrats. on both
sides, will have full states before
the last bell Is rung. But the candi-
dates for places on the state central
committee seem to be in bigger
hurry to get their names in than are
the candidates for other places on
the tickets of either party. Up to
today no woman candidate had filed
for anything, even though the demo-
cratic women in at least three leRis-
lative districts have agreed on candi-
dates for the state central committee.
Political Apathy Disappearing.
The general apathy which has been
SO marked in Maryland politics since
the election last November. due to
a large extent to the fact that this
giving way and both parties are
waking UP to the fact that a state
controller, house of delegates and
half senate are to be elected this
fall.
Controller E. Brooke Lee of Mont.
gomery county has positively an.
nounced that under no circumstance.
will he be a candidate for reelection
and no other democrat Of prominenc.
has apl tred to make the run fol
the Office. So far William S. Gordl
of Wicomico county Is the only mai
who has announced his willingness
to try for the office. and unless some
body else gets into the limelight h
will get the nomination by default
The republicans have q candidate Ii

Metzerott of Prince Georges county
and the G. o. p. bosses seem to b.
delighted that he wants to run. H

Outlook I'm the City.
In the city the prospects are tha
| there will be another fight betweel
the Mahon and Kelly factions, just a
| there was two years ago. At tina
| time harmony efforts were strong, be
cause the state ticket of the part,
was imperiled. Now. as there is n
governor to be chosen. there is not tn
same incentive for peace making. an
| both factions appear to have made u
| their minds to go to the mat for
showdown in the primaries.
The women of both parties appea
to be more active than the men il
picking candidates for the state cen
trail committees While the democrati
party Is the only which has SO ia
openly invited women by granting
them equal representation. it is 4
foregone conclusion that they will b
treated equally as well by the repub
| licans, and, as a matter of fact, tn
women of the latter afhliation alread
| have practically agreed upon thel
candidates who will be named mex
