MEN OUTNUMBER WOMEN
IN MARYLAND BY 10000
Men Have No Need to Fear Los
ing Their Present Prominence

In spite of the fact that there are
three women in the Maryland Legis-
lature this season, and that women
are taking an increasingly active part
in business, professional and other
affairs, the Census of 1880 showed
that there are over 10000 more men
than women in this State. The men,
therefore, have no need to fear that
they will lose their present position
of prominence.
Preliminary reports of the census
of 1880 sent to the State Department
of Health by the U. S. Bureau of the
Census, show that in April, 1880,
there were 1851 ,526 persons living in
Maryland, of whom $4,000 were
males and S10,517 were females. Be-
ginning with the babies less than a
year old and continuing through each
age group, up to and including per-
sons 81 years old, there were fewer
females than males in each group.
the staying quality of women were
manifest and from that onward to
rs years old and older, the women ex-
ceeded the men in each age group.
There were 96,778 persons in the
group from IS years and upward
45,949 men and 50,825 women.
Division of the population according
to color, nativity and citizenship,
showed the same excess of men over
women in the State, 1,954,193 or $50
percent were white and 277,333 or
ITO percent were colored. Of the
total white population, 679,713 were
males, and 674,4S0 were females. Of
the total colored population, 141, 296
were males and 136.037 were females.
In the total white population, l.
259,07S were native-born, and 95,115
foreign-born. Of the native-born,
629, 429 were males and 629,650 were
females-or 222 more women than
men. In the foreign-born group, 55,-
059 were naturalized-29,739 males
and 25,320 females; $500 had taken
out their first papers-6,034 men and
2,066 women; and $3.50 were not
naturalized and were listed as aliens.
Of this number, 1880 were males
and 1859 females. Another excep-
ton to the prevailing rule of more
males than females in each group was
shown in total of 6,597 among the
foreign-born whose citizenship was
not recorded. In this group were
3,O12 males and 1856 females.

By SCOOP--HIMSELF
Things are extremely quiet in Gar
rett county this week. There hasn't
been any murder suspects for at least
1853 hours. Can't the men do some
thing to regain their reputation?
Scoop received a letter during the
past week from ]. E. Moomaw, of
Princeton, N. j., who is advocating
the installation of Walker-Gordon
mixer for cows. The letter follows:
Mr.. Scoop. Dear Sir:
l am sending you picture of the
Walker Gordon mixer. Perhaps the
dairy men of Garrett county can get
together and install a mixer like this
one, in or near Oakland, and bring
their cows to it by truck. 1 am sure
you can work out plan for this that
will be satisfactory to all. Perhaps
Mr.. fowler will allow you to build it
/ on his lawn instead of Baby Golf.
Please take this matter up with your
staff engineers.
Also tell Bill Browning and his
band of big game hunters to bring
their hounds and come out to New
Jersey as the Coyotes are big and
tame here. One of them carried off
two of my old hens Friday morning,
coming right up while was watching
him the second time.
All dairymen are requested to write
to Mr.. Moomaw for particulars.
Sorry we can't show a picture of
the mixer.
"Did you ever hear the one about
the fellow who rushed up to another
fellow in great anger and shouted,
"You stole my wife, you horsethief."
Nominations in Order
The combination of Whorton Stuck
Little will come to an end on March
9, when three other councilmen will
be named from the municipal ballot.
These three have finished their two
year term of harmony, Council meet

time will hang heavy on their hands.
Horse Power Stuck won't have any
waterworks to inspect, and Bill won't
have any street committee to look
after.
An ordinance against roller skates,
bicycles and Austin's is being pre-
pared for the next council meeting by
Mayor Monk Stemple, following an
episode on Tuesday afternoon in front
of Harned's Drug Store, the hangout
for the members of the Amalgamated
Society for the Prevention of Work.
Of course no one seems to know
exactly how it happened. Scoop
looked out of his window and saw an
Austin parked in front of the office.
He looked again, five minutes later,
and the Austin was up on the side
walk, line up with baby carriage.
A puff of wind may have lifted it
to the sidewalk, but more likely it
was about four big puffs of hot air.
When Mel Keller, of Kingwood, the
owner, appeared, he took the affair
very nonchalantly and drove to Dix
on's corner on the sidewalk before re-
turning to the street. Luckily the
foot traffic was not heavy at the time.
Investigation proves that the "par-
snip" story from Mounatin Lake was
true one. This morning l went

ing and found him digging parsnips.
The ground was frozen and l fingered
but the air was too cold for me. When
l left he was down five feet and still
had not come to the end of the tap
root. Will report actual length next
week.

 Once found, the Post will imme- diately begin establishment of ranges for both large and small bore rifle shooting and pistol and trap shooting.

According to prevalent opinion, these pains or boilS were due to incontinence--- ita lex cripta.
 When these boils opened up, they resorted to other remedies, namely, the roots of the plant Chikinalyakhpik (Aleut), va s shaved, boiled thoroughly and drank morning and evening" similar to grandmother's tansy tea. Such a decoction was said to be bitter and caustic, to such an extent that many could not bear it's use; in word, the cure was worse than the disease-voila tout.
 In the meantime, they ate cod fish and other unfatty foods. At the first signs of external boils, they are cut open and not allow ed to ripen, as they are consider ed dangerous.
