Sheriff Broke Up
A Rollicking Party

We are in receipt of the following
signed communication from sub
Scriber. who resides in Atkinson's
District, near the Somerset line:
I'VE are very glad to report that
the pump top of the. corn liquor
traffic, which is said to have been
carried on near the Worcester and
Somerset line. has been partly broken
up.
"Some of the boys are said to have
been playing with the booze for
some time. so finally they decided
to take few quarts with them to
a party to help out. And it did help
out. Ii knocked some out; and some
jumped out. Others fell out, and we
believe the girls ran out, while the
old folks backed out.
FINALLY, the sheriff of Somerset
County came and got one of the al
legged makers. and he is out, so we
are hoping to stay out"

F. PAYNE
DIED IN FLORIDA
BURIED HERE

Mr.. Payne was the son of the late
Wrixam Payne and wife, and was
born near Stockton on March 4th,
1858, lacking few days of being
sixty-four years old at the time of his
death. He married Miss Jennie
Benson, who was a sister of Mrs.
Thomas H. Collins, of Snow Hill.
and of DR.. Samuel L. Benson, of
Bristow, Cal, and Mr.. William I.
Benson, of Salt Lake City, Utah.
Mr.. Payne, who was formerly en-
gagged in business in Philadelphia.
went to Florida about nine years ago.
He bought plantation near Dania,
and engaged in farming and truck
ing. which he found very lucrative.
He visited his brother at Stockton
last fall, and greatly enjoyed his visit.
and took great pleasure in meeting
his old friends again. He remarked
that he must hurry back to Florida
that men lived longer there, and he
was afraid of pneumonia here. That
his death should occur a few months
later of the disease he most dreaded,
is singular coincidence, and ex-
emplifies the saying that no man
knoweth when his hour shall come.

any money during the past season.
Mr. Locates of the Peninsula Pro-

the meeting the Importance of select
ing few standard varieties well
suited to the community, and sticking
to them, so that the buyers would be
able to load solid cars of each variety.
He also discussed the marketing situ-
alton, and recommended that the far
mers grow sufficient quantity to JUS
tify good service by the railroad COM
panies.
Before the close of the meeting il
was suggested that n canvass of the
audience be made to determine
whether or not there would be an in
creased acreage this season. Practi-
cally every man in the audience
agreed to grow a limited acreage,
which totaled nearly one handred

sis is obtained. This discussion was
lead by Mr.. Colmore +. Byrd. 1t
was then that the president was ask

KEENE JOINS RANKS
OF PROFESSIONALS
Victor keene Has Been Called To
Join The Celebrated Chicago
"Cubs."

Voctor keene. formerly of Snow
Hill. and at one time the star pitcher
in the Worcester County High School
League, will enter the professional
ranks of baseball this spring. An
nounccment was made to this effect
a few days ago in news dispatch
from College Park, Maryland, where
Mr.. keene is completing his senior
year at Maryland State University.
: The dispatch says:
"Victor o. Kcene, pitcher on the
University of Maryland nine for three
years. is soon to leave the univer-
sity to join the Chicago Cubs for
spring training. keene was signed
by the Cubs last fall. after he had
won 33 straight games against semi
pro clubs around Philadelphia. and
il is stated that the Cubs manager
was impressed with the Black and
Gold fash in preliminary try-out.
"Keene entered Maryland in the
fall of 1917, since which time his slab
work has undoubtedly been the big
gest individual factor in the Old Line
schools diamond success II was
largely due to his work that Mary
land won the South Atlantic title in
1918, and in 1919 he was declared to
be one of the best collegiate pitchers
in the country.
"He also turned in a fine record the
past spring. The departure of keene
is severe blow to Maryland's dia-
mond ambitions"
In 1920, prior to the close of the
college season, keene sustained Sc
we're injuries, which incapacitated him
from playing any more that year.
Last year he pitched brilliantly for
Maryland University, and after the
close of the season at his college, he
had wonderful success against semi
professional clubs around Philadel-
phia. II was while thus engaged that
he was secured by Salisbury to pitch
against Princess Anne. The Somer-
set boys had been finding the Sails
bury team comparatively easy to de-
feat, and in an effort To change the
tide, Salisbury secured keene and
his battery mate. The game was
