Outdoor Show Fairyland

A complete, well-rounded display
of all outdoors, with a gigantic lake,
flowing streams, living trees and
shrubs and thousands of colortul
plants in full bloom, will be exhibit
ed at the Fifth Regiment Armory
in Baltimore when the 1889 North
American Sports, Garden and Out
door Life Show opens for nine days
on February 18th.
Those who viewed the Outdoor
Life Show held in Baltic, last year
will see an entire new and thoroughly
different display than anything that
has ever been held in this section
of the country before.
The Show Committee has so plan
ned the exhibits for the 1899 Show
that with one exception, no exhibit
will in any way resemble those
shown at the Armory last year. The
hugh naturalistic lake, erected as
an aquatic arena for thrilling out
door events, is the one exception;
for, an unprecedented public de-
mand motivated the Show Commit
tee to again erect this gorgeous
spectacle as the central feature. This
year, however its setting and back
ground will be completely changed.
It's structural height will be lower
ed IL inches, thus affording to all
visitors better view of the pro-
gram presented both in the water
and along the shore Of the Like.
Brilliant coloration, from the
tender subtle hues of delicate spring
flowers to the vivid glowing tones OF
natures symphony of color, will be
the predominant note of this out
door event.
In a setting of stately pines and
evergreens and rhododendrons, az
aleas, and dogwood in full bloom
there will be "A Mountain Trout
Stream" exhibit sponsored by the
Frederick County Fish and Game
Protective Association. A pathway
meandering through this exhibit will
parallel the banks of flowing
stream where there will be live
brook trout which Will tempt many
an angler to barrow a rod and reel
and try his luck.
There will be pelicans from Flor
ida, pheasants from Borneo, Siam
| China, and the Himalayan Noun
tains, wild cats from Texas, caught
barehandedly by Vice-President Gar
ner; Malamute sledge dogs, mans
closest companion in the Far North
These any many strange and curl
Gus animals, together with fish
birds, frogs, and reptiles, will fasci-
nate all who visit the Armory.

deaths than the corresponding per-
iod of 1888.
January of 1898 had thirty-six
deaths, as compared with twenty
six deaths of this year, Decrease OF
ten, or % percent. Figuratively
speaking this is encouraging, and
hope the year of 1889 will continue
to show a decrease. At least a start
has been made in the right direc-
ton.
According to summary Is, or So
percent, Of the persons killed were
pedestrians. OF this number 4 were
children, 2 playing with sleds in
the Roadway, hitching ON Vehicle
and / crossing at intersection nc
signal. OF the Adult pedestrians
killed, was walking in road right
side with traffic, 2 working in Road
way, 2 crossing at intersection
against signal, 1 crossing at inter
section no signal, and crossing not
at intersection. Six or % percent, OF
the persons killed were passengers,
and 5, or 10 percent, were the oper-
ators themselves.
Most of the accidents occurred on
straight, dry roads of concrete con-
struction, on clear days, during the
hours of darkness and between the
hours of 5 P.M.-6 p. M. Friday had
the largest number of deaths, with
six. Passenger car with apparently
no defects, operated by White,
Normal Males, between the ages OF
4O-49, with five years or more ex-
perience, and a resident of the
Counties Of this State. The causes
of these accidents according to
summary, continues to be CHARGED
with operating too fast for condi-
<tions. There were two Hit and Run
cases during January.
Baltimore City Is charged with z
accidents involving z deaths, where
as, Is accidents involving 10 deaths
occurred in the Counties. Prince
Georges County and Baltimore City

*Denotes deficit.

The counties had total OF $5l5,-
900 in their construction fund ac-
counts as of December 81, with Bal
timore city having $35,1O9. Con-
tracts already awarded in the coun-
ties but for which no funds have
been allocated will require the ex-
penditure of $296,345.
If no other contracts are let, addl-
tional revenues coming in would
leave three counties-Frederick,
Kent and Talbot-with deficits total
ing $45,976 in their construction
funds at the end of the fiscal year.
The other counties would have cred
it balances totaling $818,925 If no
other contracts are awarded from
now until the end of the fiscal year.
On the assumption the counties
would spend this year the same
amount they did last year for main
tenance and debt service, these in
cumbrances on the lateral road
funds would total $1,4S6,790, leav-
ing a. total deficit of $1,3S1,17S.
However, after anticipated reven-
ues of $1,491,679 are added to the
accounts seven of the counties would
be left with deficits totaling $173,-
764 at the end of the fiscal year.
