From October 1, 1888, to June 1, 1889, the expenses of the school amounted to $17,250. There were 98 pupils at the school the past year. Since the school was established. nineteen years ago, there have been $46 pupils educatfd within its walls. They are taught ali branches of a good English edu- cation, and those who choose may learn some useful trade to fit them for the practical work of life. The board elected officers and attaches for the e year as follows: President, Enoch Pratt, of Baltimore; vice-president, W. B. Barry, of Baltimore; secretary, Capt. H. Clay Neill, of Frederick; treasur John H. Williams, of Frederick; principal, Chas. W. Ely, M. A.; teachers, Miss Rose R. Harris, Miss Kate M.

The vupils were tendered their annual banquet fase night by Prof. Ely, and to-day left for their bomes over the Baltimore and Ohi Yesterday the annual erhibition of the art de- partment, Miss Floreuce W. Doub instructor, was held ‘& PROMINENT CITIZEN DEAD. Michael H. Haller, whose death occurred at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Wm. H. Best, near Frederick, Monday night, was sheriff of this county from 1859 to 1361, and was after- ward a member of the city common council. His wife died about a year ago, but he leaves a large family of growf children. He was en- gaged here in the paper-hanging business for many years. He belonged to the Masons, Odd Fellows, Red Men and knights of Pythias. His funeral took place to-day, interment being made in Mount Olivet cemetery. Kev. Luther Kuhlman officiated. THE BRIDGES LOST IN THE FLOOD, The board of county commissioners at a special session yesterday opened and examined twelve bids, all that were received, for the re- building of seven of the county bridges across the Monocacy river, swept away by the recent flood. All the bidders represented foreign companies except oue, Merver, Buckey & Firestone, of Frederick, whose figures were the lowest, but a question was raised by the other bidders as to the formality of their bid. Ac- cording to the Dids the rebuilding of the seven bridges will cost the county between 250,000 and 375.000. The contract has not yet been awarded. The result of the bidding is awaited with great anxiety by the Vos le. who are anx- ious that the bridges should be restored. It is being strongly urged upon the commissioners by many iniluential farmers to erect temporary bridges across the river. or else purchase ferry boats for the transportation of teams from side to side. This agitation has been brought about by frequent instances of late where persons, in attempting to ford the stream, met with narrow escapes from drowning. Several teams have in this way been swept away. REAL ESTATE SALES. Henry Lorentz, of Frederick, has deeded to Catherine Lorentz two desirable lots, with im- provements, situated in this city.

From s Berlin Letter. We saw recently a little squad dawdling along | ip their uniforms through the heat, the most ambitionless, hot, weary or lazy souls, drag- ging one foot after the other as if a cannon ball were tied to each. “Poor fellows,” we thought, “how plainly every line about them tells the oppression and misery of the whole brutal system!” When all at once, to our amazement, they stiffened up like ramrods, flung one leg out in front at an angle of 45 de- grees with force enough to kick down a ram- part, and then brought the heels of their ironclad members down upon the pavement like « biscksmitb’s hammer. the sparks flying in all directions. We looked on in amazement, wondering what had happened to them, when im the distance appeared a diminutive cor, the occasion of whole excitement. The same awe of their superiors rans through the entire German army. A common soldier hav- ing his boot blacked will instantly stand aside before the operation is completed, as a corpo- How It Will Probably Affect the United States in the Future. From the San Francisco Bulletin. It is announced that the Siberian railway scheme has been approved by the commission “ppointed to consider it, and that the road will be completed in six years. It has been hereto- fore reported that American capital and skill would be largely drawn upon to carry out the enterprise. The line will open a country simi- lar to our northern tier of states and Southern Canada ‘for a distance of over 4,000 miles, beside its western connections and lateral feeders, It is ex that a branch will be run southward into Manchuria, and thence to Reking, to join the Chinese system, which bas already been commenced to connect the capi- tal with its port, Tientsin, 70 miles That will give the road two termini, one at Viadivostoch, the other at Tientsin, with the Practicability of extensions to other Chinese trade centers and ports. The opening of the line from Tientéinto Taku was accomplished in the face of much official and popular oppo- sition, Ashort time ago it was announced that the conservative party at the Chinese court had succeeded in propping further work, but ace then more hiferal counsels have pre- vailed. The death of Prince Tun, one of the young emperor's uncles and an influential conserva- tive, probably contributed to that end. The road will now be pushed to Peking without de- lay. Itis known that in Manchuria, near the line which connecting road would naturally take, rich gold deposits exist. They have been worked to some extent by Chinese and whites from Siberia, but there has been no adequate development of the country. The Russian trunk line between Semipala- tinsk and Viadivostock will run near the north- ern base of the Altai range, which separates Siberia from the Ghinese dominions. Around the headquarters of a ip near — ipalatinsk, deposits of silver and copper have been auaceersdr aud id and je in small quantities, Inthe Yablonnoi mountains the section of the Altai just west of the Amoor country, where the range breaks down to an undulating platean, gold, silver, lead, zinc, an- timony, iron, and arsenic are found, and em- erald and topaz mines of great value exist. The country along the line for a width of sev- eral hundred miles is m part covered with valuable forests of pine, fur, larch, poplar, and hard woods. Along the rivers wheat and other grains, io- bacco, vegetables, etc., grow well, and the graz- ing is excellent. The fertility of the Amoor region is well known. Some - a great popu- lation of the Caucasian race will fill this coun- try and reach out to trade with the United States. There are many prodacts which the state could furnish them better than any other part of the world. In many ways this opening of a new route of travel around the world will be of especial significance to the United States, which must of necessity be one of the most im- portant points on it, The effect which the building of this road is likely to have upon China is also a most impor. tant factor in forecasting the future. England’s Indian railway system is gradually encircling the empire on the south and west, the Russian line will stretch along its northern border, and when it starts for Peking it is not unlikely that China will yield to the inevitable and enter upon 4 career of railroad deveiopment, —— oe TRAVELING ANNOYANCES, Trouble One has with British Custom- House Officials. Correspondence New York Mail-Express, On the journey from Strasburg to Paris, the man who travels with many trunks has to en- counter great obstacles, At Aven-court the French customs officials examine the luggage and each individual article is picked up, felt of, squeezed, pushed, and if at all suspicious opened. But it is in England after all that the greatest difficulties beset the traveler. At Dover, where one crosses the Channel from Calais, a half hundred customs officials are on hand upon the arrival of each boat, and there all the hand baggage is carefully examined. If your trunk is clrecked through to London it will not be opened until you reach the station, and there one experiences more annoyance than in any other part of Europe. I asked a very intelligent looking porter, to whom I gave the checks for my trunks, why the English offi- cials make so thorough an inspection of travel- ers’ luggage. He replied in amysterious whis- vr: “Itis all on account of dynamite. You will hardly believe it, sir, that there is a dozen English detectives in this depot, and every piece of luggage that comes through here is carefully inspected.” “But there is no danger of dynamite,” I said; “that is only a scare. “You would not think so,” he answered, “if you could see the way trunks and bags are pulled apart here, and how every bag, no mat- ter how small, is carefully opened and scanned for mysterious explosive: “Has any dynamite begn found in passengers’ baggage?” I ventured to ask. “That I cannot say,” he replied. “If it was we porters would not knowof it; but I know that is what the inspectors are on the watch for.” (I had reason to remember the porter’s words, for it took me quite an hour to get my trunks passed, and then only after each article was taken out of the trunk and carefully scrutinized, But there is one thing that can be said in favor of the English customs officials, they are not bribable, at least I have not found’ any who were. They do their work Conscientiously and thoroughly. A handfu! of coin to a porter and another handful to a French or Belgian officer means the passing of your trunk almost with- out looking at it. The German officials are stri and do their duty well, but the English officials surpass them all in point of duty and alertness. ee Corruption by English Railroads. From the Chicago Times, Herbert Spencer thinks there is more un- blushing corruption by railroads in the Eng- lish house of commons in the last decade than has ever taken place in the federal or state leg- islature since railways became public high- ways, He says that to-day there are over 180 members of parliament who are simply agents of railways and similar corporations. Most of these are barristers, who owe their election to the influence of the roads they serve. These parliamentary lawyers serve their masters and sapporters of new projects and make no sub- Tosa statement of the number of votes they can command in the house, but proclaim it openly. Members of both houses are can- vassed openly, and any railway legislation in- volves an enormous outlay. ———-ces-____ How Gould Paid for Cigars. New York Correspondence Philadelphia Press. Gould went down into Texas a number of years ago with a party of railroad men on a tour of inspection, and at some station along the road the party got off and some one blew ina round of drinks, Gould doesn’t drink, a characterestic which is shared with a number of other miliionaires, but somehow or other he seems to have felt it incumbent on him to re- turn the courtesy thus offered and invited the party tosmoke. The cigars were passed round and a dozen or so of them were taken out, Mr. Gould asked the barkeeper how much he owed lim and the barkeeper returned the iuformation that the cigars were 25 cents each. “Isn't that a pretty high price?” remarked Mr. Gould in his slow ‘mild way. Perhaps,” remarked the barkeeper; “but then — know, we're not down here for our health.” Mr. Gould paid the bill for the cigars and said no more, Perbaps there was nothing more to say.
