At a recent meeting of the board of direc- tors of the Agricultural Soctety at the fair ), @ large amount of business in ref- ‘erence to the September exhibition was Aransacted. It was decided to build a two- story addition to the present exhibition hall, to be 24x60 feet in dimenstons, and yes- terdgy. the contract for building the same was awarded to Mr. Edw. M. West, at $775. “Phe construction of the building will be under the supervision of President Bagley and Messrs. Wm. Dorsey and W. E. Mun- caster. Messrs. Wm. Dorsey, C. W. Fields and Hezekiah Trail were appointed a com- mittee on preparing the grounds for the @ext fair and was authorized to ask for bids for whitewashing, cleaning up the unds, etc. Messrs. Miller, White and sey were appointed a committee on trials of speed. Much interest is manifested in the community in the success of the next exhibition. As the space for the display of goods in the hall will be greatly increased, it is hoped that merchants and manufactur- ers of the District will take advantage of the enlarged facilities for the exhibition of their goods. The first floor of the new ‘building will be used as a dining room, something that has been much needed for years. In the orphans’ court yesterday the fol- Jowing business was transacted: Mary A. Penn, adminstratrix of Ignatius Penn, de- ceased, filed list of debts due and owing Geceased. Gerard Bell Mason, executor of Lucy C. Stephenson, deceased, filed list of gales of personal estate of said deceased, and passed first and final account.

The ladies ot Salem Methodist Protestant Church propose holding a festival and pic- mic in the grove adjoining Odd Fellows’ Hall, at Brookeville, on Thursday, August 2, commencing at 2 o'clock p.m. A brass band will be in attendance. A small crowd, numbering about a dozen of the Kelley contingent of the Coxey com- monweal, passed through here yesterday on thelr way to Washington. The Thomas crowd. which had been camned in the fair grounds since Saturday evening, also left for the same destination early yesterday morning. The citizens of the town were much annoyed during their stay here by their importunities for something to eat, old clothes, »te., an? the gcner.l impres- sion ts that the Maryland tramp law should be strictly enforeed against all such char- ers. Mr. and Mrs. Georze C. Dawson left a few days ago for a sojourn at Bedford Springs. The drouth of several weeks’ duration in this section was finaily broken on Satur- day evening iast, since which time almost ctinuous rains have occurred. The good effect of this change in the weather ts al realy visible in the corn crop and pasture: The religious exercises of “Forty Hours Devotion.” which have been m progress at St. Mary's Catholle Church at this Place since Sunday, closod yesterday.

Frederick has a new enterprise In the Harrison Interstate Telephone and .Tele- | graph Company, which was incorporated | here on Saturday with a capital stock of | $25,000, and with Dr."P. ‘Dy ‘Fahrney, James E. Walker, John Baumggrdner, Fr B. Sap- pingson and Edgar L. Miller, all of Fred- erick, as incorporators. Its objeet and pur- | pose are to do a general telephone and tele- graph business, and deal in electrical sup- plies, and its field of operation will be Maryland and adjoining states, its principal office being in Frederick. The incorpor- ators named above are to be the directors for the first year. The stock is divided into five hundred shares of the par value of fifty dollars each, and {t is understood that the bulk of it hasbeen taken. Edgar L. Miller of Frederick, who was instrumental in orgarizing the company, bas been ap- pointed general manager for Maryland and Virginia. It is the purpose of the company to furnish telephone and telegraph service at ratés much below those new preVailing. The toard of charities and or= asa result of their -mvestigatioh of tfi¢ charges of mismanagement brought agajnst Super- intendent Tobias Main by geveral employes of Montevue, _ has. transmitted. a re- port to the state board of lunacy exonerat- ing Mr. Main from blame. The case of the employes, who brought the charges out of @ spirit of revenge, wtil be investigated by the board at its next meeting. During a thunder’storm’ in’ the northern pert of the county on Saturday evening a barn on the farm of Mrs. Phoebe Feiser, rear Woodsboro, was struck by lightning and set on fire. The building and all its contents, consisting in part of a large quan- tty of wheat and hay, were entirely de- stroyed, entailing a loss of about $2,500, on which there was an insurance of $1,200 in the Sandy Springs Fire Insurance Company of Montgomery county. The managers of the Frederick County Agricultural Society have already begun extensive preparation for the big fair here on the Sth, 10th, 11th and 12th of October next. The commoaious grounds and build- ings of the society will be. greatly improved, | and over $10,000 will be offered in pre- miums, of which $4,000 will be devoted to purses in racing contests. It 1s expected that the fair will be the largest in the his- tory of the society. The depth of depravity to which greed will sometimes lead so-calied sportsmen has been illustrated in this county, where, in the tributaries of the Monocacy river in the vicinity of Myersville, unknown parties have been exploding dynamite cartridges under the surface of the water, in order to kill the fish, which, being dead, ficat to the surface and are then taken. By their method, however, not only the eatable, but vast numbers of undeveloped fish are wan- tonly destroyed. The county suthorities have been notified of the breach of law, and efforts are being made to detect and capture the guilty parties. The annual meeting of the board of alder- men of Frederick was held Monday night, when ail the old officers of the board and city employes were re-elected. Joseph F. Etsenhauer was returned as president of the board for the seventh time, He is now serving his twelfth tefrfh a& a member of the board, covering a period of twenty years. Charles Edward Koontz, a native of this city, and for many years an engineman on the Baltimore and Ohio railroad, running on the main line, died in Baltimore Satur- day, aged sixty-two years. He was one of the oldest employes of the railroad com- pany. 2 Mr. Henry Lorentz has returned from a Pleasant visit to Washington. e Mr. Wm. H. Brendell of Washington Its visiting friends here. Albert Chapline has returned to Wash- ington, after a visit to relatives here. Cor sory Arbitration in New York. Mr. Church of the New York constitu- tional convention has introduced. a novel Proposition to try to regulate the Cciffer- ences between capital and labor. He pro- poses to have a state board of arbitration of seven members, to be known as the New York state commission of compulsory arbitration. The chief commissioner is to be appointed by the judges ef the court of appeals, and shall be a counsellor at law; one by the presidents of the- various col- leges within the state and the chancellor of the regents, to be learned in social and economic sciences; one by the governor; one by the senate; one by the assembly; one by the corporations that would fall under the law; one by the employes of such cor- porations. They are to hold oflice for five years, and four members’ concurrence shall be netessary for a decision. <oo-—. The Flagship Aquidaban Raised. The steamer Maskelyne, which arrived yesterday in New York from Kio Janeiro, ings news that Admiral DaGama's flag- ship Aquidaban had been put in Graving dock at Rio on July 1. She was on public exhibition and wag visited by thousands of the inhabitants. A large hole in her bow, some thirty feet long, extending clean across ship from side to side, showed the terrific effect of the torpedo which sunk her off Santa Catharina from one of Peixoto's torpedo boats at the close of the late struggle. | 8 7, 6,5, 4, 3, markable hands at wht sion the writer's trumps, only the seven andl e against him.

And we remember holding: the:seven | highest trumps and gettins nothing more than the odd, and of holding eclevea trumps | with partner and losing even the od. A former Earl of Yarborough was aiways | willing to wager £1,000 to £1 that a hani without a card better than a nine would not be held. He didn’t offer odds that were large enough to make the bet fair, for the chances against such a hand are 1,827 to 1. But we have seen more than cne hand of | that character, and have good reason for remembering one hand that was elght-spot high, with only two trumps. The man who held it never had a good hand in his life. We know that because he used to say so— at least twenty times in every sitting. 85,000, AUCTION SALES.

C. REMARKABLE WHIST HANDS, Together With Some Unexpected Re- sults of Playing Them. From the Post-Express. | A member of the Buffalo Whist Club sends | to the Buffalo Commercial a letter describ- ing a hand which he recently held at whist. It was his lead, and in sorting his hand he found that he held the six highest hearts, which were trumps; the ace, king and queen of spades, and the ace, king, queen | and knave of clubs. The hand looked, of course, as though it were good for thirteen tricks, but as a matter of fact the player lost the odd, for one of his opponents held the seven smallest trumps and the six high- est diamonds. The Commercial’s corre- spondent asked if he could play the hand in such a way as to make the.odd trick, and that paper does not reply. Very slight study of the hand shows, however, that it can yield only six tricks, no matter whether the trumps are led first or the spades or clubs, The hand which the Buffalo player held was a remarkable one, but ft is surpassed by the extraordinary hand held by a Duke of Cumberland at Bath, as described by Richard A. Proctor. The duke held thé king, kna were trump: the ace, king, queen and knave of hearts and the ace, king and queen of spades. It was the duke’s lead, and he falled to take i} - single trick! The four hands were as fol- lows: nine and seven of clubs, which the ace and king of diamonds, West—A., Q., 10, 8 clubs (trumps); 10, 9 North—Kn., i 6 spades; Q., Kn. 10, 9, 8, 7, 6 hearts. 4, 3, 2 spades; 5, 4, 3, 2 hearts; clubs he duke)—K., Kn., 9, 7 clubs; A., . diamonds; A., K.,"Q.,-Kn. hearts; A., K.. Q. spades. The duke opened his hand with a trump, which west covered, and lei a diamond, which east trumped. East returned a trump, which west took, and led back a diamond. East again trumped and then led his iast trump. West took it, drew the duke’s last trump and made his remaining diamonds. We never knew of a more re- markable combination of cards and from the way Prof. Proctor published an‘ dis- cussed the play in his book, entitled “How to Play Whist,”” we have no reason to doubt the genuineness of the hand. In the same book Prof. Proctor, giving the “Westminster Papers” as his author- ity, mentions two cases where all the trumps were held by one player. The odds against this are 158,753,389,S00 to 1. Some years ago Cuthbert Bele wrote to Notes and Queriss that he held seven hearts | and six diamonds, and his partner heid six hearts and seven diamonds, while the clubs and spades were similarly divided be. tween the opponents.
