TOWNSVILLE MAN AT SPRING.
FIELD ASYLUM

Harry Geizelman, about 45 years old,
of townsville district, was taken to
Springfield Asylum, Tuesday. For
some time Geizelman has been suffer
ing with a mental disorder, which it is
thought will yield to treatment.
Recently GeiZelman has acted in a
manner that has alarmed persons in
the neighborhood of his home. 1t is
said that he spoke of killing a child
and while it was not thought that he
had any intentions of committing a
crime, it was deemed best to place him
where he could do no harm, and be
given treatment that might restore
his mind. Two physicians who exam
ined the man stated that he was suft-
ering from mental disorder and botn
advised that he be given treatment at
an institution.
Those who know GeiZelman say that
ordinarily he is harmless and at times
a good workman. For some time he
had been employed at the Tidewater
Portland Cement plant, near Union
Bridge, and later had worked for
farmers in the neighborhood OF his
home Recently, however, he has been
going to neighboring houses and while
he has not molested anyone his pres
ence has created alarm.

DEMOCRATS SWEEP HAGERS-
TOWN

Democrats made a clean sweep in
Mondays election in Hagerstown.
Charles <. Bowman was elected
Mayor over Harry r. Rudy, Republi-
can, by a majority of $50 votes. Clyde
E. Brewer, Democrat, has returned to
City Council from Ward 2, defeating
Abel A. Miller. Reuben Musesy, DEM
ocrat, defeated H. A. Ridenour for
City Council in Ward 4.
The bond issue of $750,000 for the
completion of the Sewerage System
was approved by a majority of 326
vote and the street paving bond is
sue of 100000 was carried by ma
jority of 416 votes.
1t was real Democratic weather and
early returns, coming in shortly af-
ter o'clock indicated that the Demo-
Gratis would carry their whole ticket.
Many normal Republican precincts
showed a complete reversal, the DEM
ocratic candidates carrying them by
good majorities. Mr.. Bowman carried
nine of the fifteen precincts of the
city, winning in hs home ward, No. 4,
by an overwhelming majority.
The result of the election means
that the Democrats will be in COM
plete control of City Council having
the Mayor and all five councilmen.
They will have free rein in the hand
ling of the city'S affairs and in the
matter of appointments. The newly
elected officials will take office at the

ALL STARS TRIMMED.

St. Martins Club, Baltimore, play
ed a slashing basketball game against
the Westminster All-Stars Wednesday
night in the State Armory and won,
81 to 10. But after outclassing their ri
walls in the first round the st. Martins
boys were out-generated in the clos
ing session, when the local crew scor-
ed four more points than the visiting
combination.
In fast preliminary, which attract
ed a big crowd to the armory, the
Henpeck and Would Be basketball
teams scrapped their through an
other smashing contest. Every kind OF
a game was exhibited, from the rough
tactics of football to perhaps an ink

gained their second victory over their
rivals, to 8. 1t was a triumph that
just happened, and not one in which
skill counted for such, as the score in
dicateS.

says:
With plans carefully laid a Balti-

ney that would lead to the land of
matrimonial bliss on Tuesday of this
week the start was made.
The plans did not call for hand
some carriages, not even limousines
so the couple started by the way made
famous by the L. S. Army, with a
stout hart and eight dollars.
For such a journey the first point
of '[erest would be Hampstead, the
town of "Brotherly Love"
THE couple arrived in Hampstead
late in the afternoon and registered
at the Hotel Hampstead. But bark!
the first error was made. They reg
istered as man and wife. The plans
did not reckon with manager Patter-
son whose watchful eyes detected an
error and "forsaw" trouble. The man
ger notified the county authorities
These officials hurried to the scene.
THE cruel, cruel officers notified
the parents of the young lady and her
father came and took her home.
In the Annals of Sheriffdom' an
other elopement was recorded as
smashed"

trouble.
