Joe Mckee, at Richards Oak, west of
town Wednesday evening. When the
firemen arrived at the scene they
found the house locked up and no

SPECIAL ELECTION

The Commissioners of Rising Sun
at meeting held Oct. 2Otu, 1888,
declared null and void the election
held Aug. IA, 1888, for sewerage
disposal plant for the town. The
reason for such decision was the
ruling Of the Attorney General of
the State which declared tina. voting
by property owners only was illegal
according to the charter Of the town.
That being the case it was dec 'ded to
hold another special election for the
same purpose, Monday, Nov. 18th,
1888, from 8 to o'clock. At this
election all duly qualified voters,
viz, persons 21 years OF age and
over, who have been residents of the
town for 6 months and over, are en-
titled to vote. The proposition to be
voted on is for the town to install
sewerage disposal plant, the cost of
which is not to exceed $3O,O0O.OO,
with the understanding that the
plant will not be installed unless
there is free grant of 30o6 from
the Federal government, making the
cost of the plant not more than $21,-
10000. The Commissioners feel
that such an opportunity as is now
being offered may not occur soon
again and for that reason every eff
fort should be made to have this
work done as soon as possible. The
cost of sewerage to the consumer
will be given in next weeks issue.

Richie and his staff, and other dis
tinquished guests.

op of the Diocese of Easton, DR..

dress in which he recounted histori-
cal epochs in the life of Washington
College during it's eventful career of
ISL years, and in which he stressed
modern education ideals ard what
should be the future mission of the
ancient institution of learning.
Following this address Col Hiram
S. Brown, chairman of the Board of
Visitors and Governors of the Col
lege introduced President Roosevelt.
The honorary degree of Doctor Of
Laws was conferred upon the Presi-
dent by DR.. Mead, who, at tho same
time presented Mr.. Roosevelt with a
photostatic copy of the original de-
gree of Doctor of Laws which was
conferred upon George Washington
in 1889. President Roosevelt re-
sponded in a very short speech in
which he expressed his profound
pleasure in visiting Chestertown and
