A Chicago speeder objected to the coolies in the
jail in which he found himself suddenly thrown
after violating the city ordinance. Maybe it
would not be bad idea to publish widely the fact
that all jails are infested with coolies. Perhaps
that will cut down speeding and lot of other
crimes. Criminals have got the idea they should

ROAD LAWS PREVENT
HOUSEKEEPING WEIGHT

There are certain laws on the
statute books which govern the use
of the state highways. James A.
Slacum of Cambridge, found this out
when he attempted to move the Fer
ry Neck school house from it's old
place to Trappe. The school is to be
parish house of St. Paul's P. E.
Church, Trappe, and Mr.. Slacum was
given the job to move it.
But he hadn't got very far with
his task before he blocked the high
way. The law limits the weight of
loads on the highways, and also pro-
vides that in order to obstruct the
highway one must first obtain a per-
NIT. This, the police say, Mr.. Sla-
cum failed to do.
Sergeant Webe, of the State police
served notice on Mr.. Slacum that he
was violating the law in several ways
and ordered his appearance before
Magistrate Miller last week. The
school house was too large to move
between two telephone poles, it was
claimed, and the ends Of the rafters
had to be cut off before the build

INTEREST IN SHORE BALL
SEEMS TO BE REVIVING

Interest in the revival of an Eas-
tern Shore Baseball League has gone
further than talking about it, if a
letter received this week from Jos. F.
Carr, Director of the National AS
ISOLATION of Professional Baseball can
be termed as an indicator. And it
really is, for Joe Carr makes a bust
ness of promoting just such ventures.
The plan outlined in the letter to
Mr.. Dan Pasquella of Crisfield, for
merly interested in the old Eastern
Shore League, in which Crisfield had
a berth, would like to get six or
eight-club circuit and use them as a
farm" for higher class leagues.
Mr.. Carr stated that he would visit
the Shore some time during this or
next month, and would call on en-
thusiasts in the various larger towns
on the lower peninsula looking for
ward to getting the proposition under
way for the 1887 season.
That the big leagues need more
good material is well established fact
for their ranks are becoming thin in
many spots. It is for this reason
that there is so much feasibility to

FOUR CAMP BOYS ARE
HURT AT PUBLIC LANDING

Four Civilian Conservation Corps
men were injured, one probably fatal
ly, in an accident near Public Land
ing late Tuesday afternoon. The &C.
cident occurred during the heavy
storm which swept this section.
The car in which the four were re-
turning from Public Landing left the
road on curve about two miles from
the resort and crashed into a tele-
phone pole.
Lee Smith, aged %, of Salisbury,
Pa, was probably fatally injured in
the crash. He sustained a compound
fracture of the skull, a punctured
right eye, and a lacerated right arm.
The other occupants Of the car were
Paul Blackboard, aged 40, of Girdle-
tree, Md, who received broken leg
and decorations on the arm; Alexander
Hirtner, aged "a, of Bethlehem, Pa,
who received decorations on the face |;
and Nicholas Schussler, Of Bethlehem,
aged "a, who received a broken leg.
Schussler and Blackboard are in
a serious condition, but their injuries
are not expected, to be fatal. Hirt-
ner's condition is not regarded as
serious.
The pole was snapped off in the
crash, and the auto was demolished.
The accident is being investigated by
Officer Charles Parker, of the Mary
land State Police.

SHORE FIGHTER LOSES
LAST WEEK IN n. Y.

Crawford Keller, Princess Anne boy
who has made quite record in the
hall of fistadom, lost hard fought
bout by technical knockout in the
7th round of 10 round go in the
main event at the Fort Hamilton Club
in New York, Thursday night, July
2.
Meller's opponent was a nationally
known pugilist from Pennsylvania,
Teddy Loder, who in previous fights
had KO'd boxers such as Joe Meladon
and held decision over Jack Port
ney. Keller had a slight edge in the
battle until the 3rd round when he
was the victim of a foul blow. This
was followed by two more agoniz-
ing blows below the belt that had the
Kid in distress. 1t was then that
Keller refused the fight on a foul,
from the referee, to battle it out for a
more popular decision.
The next four rounds were hard
fought and Keller showed he had
the courage and the heart of fight
er, but the foul blows had done their
damage and he collapsed in the 7th
round for technical knockout, which
incidentally was the second in 6S
fights, and quite a record.
In defeat Keller was popular with
the fans and was granted a return
bout in weeks at which time his ad-
nlirers predict the outcome will be
a different story.
The fight was considered "step-
up for the princess Anne Flash
as it was his first fight in New York
and also his first 10 round Main bout.
