It is my pleasure, to you an important political secret. but lest the shock of surprise should be too great for you to bear I shall endeavor to avoid abruptness of disclosure and to break the news to you as gently as possible.

I can assure you. however, that while it concerns yourself, the news is of a pleasing character and that you need have no apprehensions of its being inimical to your future -n-eifare. "or Ihe r.c-eimporran; of OUT government is that of Attorney General. In times past this office has been filled by some of the most distinguished lawyers the State has ever produced. Among these may be mentioned Luther Martin; William Pinckney: John Johnson, afterwards chancellor; Thomas Beall Dorsey, after- judge for many years of the Court of Appeals; Roger B.

Taney. afterwards chief justice of the Supreme Court of the United States-and, in later years, Charles J. M. Quinn, "William Pinckney White. John Premiss Poe, Isador Rayner and others of scarcely less renown.

And it Is but simple justice to say that the office is now filled by one who is in every way worthy a high place in the ranks of his illustrious predecessors--' I refer to the Honorable Isaac Lobe Straas. "Under the Constitntion of Maryland a successor to the present able incumbent of the office is to be elected in this year of grace 1911, and the dominant party in the State has been looking over the field for a well-qualified and available man to put forward as its candidate for the honorable position. In order to be qualified the candidate must be a trained and experienced lawyer of ability, of integrity, and of large capacity for hard work; and in order to be available it seems he must reside in Baltimore city. "So scanning the list of trained and experienced lawyers residing in Baltimore city, a name was found which is already distinguished in the annals of our State and nation. One, bearing that name, having been a brilliant poetic genius of the past generation fame brightens as the years recede; and another being a man of most versatile mind, a splendid law- bm com had nm SQ far uad Poe, to inform you that you are that man.

You, sir, have been chosen by the dominant party in Maryland as its candidate for Attorney General of this State. And I wish to say that as a member of the Appelate Court of this State. I had frequent opportunity to study your briefs, and to hear your oral arguments on important; questions in that tribunal, and thus to form an estimate of your abilities and qualifications as a trained lawyer and advocate, and I want to add my own endorsement of the selection thai has been made. It is a good nomination. I predict, sir, that you will be triumphantly elected to the high office, that you will fill it with ability and that you will thereby add new lustre to the name you bear.

My commission has now been executed, ray task is done, but in conclusion I wish to say just one word more. During the recent primary I was an earnest and outspoken supporter of Senator Blair Lee for Governor of Maryland. And I have no apologies to make for supporting him for that office at the primary. He is a man who commands my respect and admiration. But I want to declare here and now, that I shall be just as loyal a supporter of Senator Arthur Pue Gorman, in the campaign upon which we are about to enter, as" I was of Senator Lee's before the primary.

The primary decided the choice of the people, and I bow to the will of the majority. Kvery man who participated in that primary is, in a sense, honor bound, to vote for Mr. Gorman, and the rest of the Democratic ticket. As Senator Lee has said, we should apply the Golden Rule to politics. And I want to add, in all sincerity, that from my knowledge of Senator Gorman, he is possessed of attributes of mind and heart that fit him to make a spledid Governor of this proud old StaTe Maryland." Following Mr.

Worthington's discourse, which, was concluded amid deafening applanse, Mr. W. Mason Sheehan was introduced and paid the party respects to Mr. Harrington, candidate for the Comptroller's office. The ceremonies were held on the lawn of the beautiful home of Senator and Mrs.

Gorman, and were at- ber considerably. The total number of th- opportunity to make them.

The negroes who ar- to be removed were all selected by Dr. Herring and will probably Ieav- about the first of the month.

From the trend of several remarks made by Dr. Herring it was understood that within the near future an important change will be made in the 1 relative to the institutions of which Montevue is one. The general opinion of the board seems to be that it would be best to put a number of such county institutions under partial control of the State and then to classify the inmates so that each place would have only a certain kind of patients. Such action could be taken only with the consent of the board of county commissioners, but that they would readily consider any move of this kind is the opinion of those who are in touch with the conditions all over the State and especially in this county. If such a move would be made the management of the local hospital would remain the same, but the patients at the place would come from all sections of nearby counties and only those would be sent here who came nnder the general classification that would be made.

That this project has been in the minds of the board for some time and that they are only awaiting their opportunity is the general opinion: that the time is near at hand when they will make some move is also rumored and that the Frederick institution will be considered is nearly certain. division other than by Patrick was ure-d to his money in i hands of a Tus'-e. i a curbing liis but he to this, a nion-y. from a accounts, iias b--n a i li" S. tips given by Clagett i in Frederick i first ones of a him.

"The Baltimore lawyer bearing this already distinguished name, has been chosen, sir, as the candidate of ihe Democratic party in this State for office. But, sir, it was not njsr'-ly because of his name that the selcctir-n was made. No, sir. The selection not made because some one ing the same name had achieved distinction, bnt the individual record was considered as to his own capabilities and fitness, and it was found he fully met the high requirements. When made and announced to a few were in the secret, the selection tended by delegates of the Democratic party from all over the State.

At the conclusion of the speeches by those selected to make the notification, and the replies by the candidates, all the delegates were invited to luncheon, which was spread on the lawn. The entire place was in holiday attire for the occasion and the beautiful gardens, which are the pride of both Mr. and Mrs. Gorman, were much admired by the visitors. The two delegates from Frederick county--Judge Wortbington and Mr.

Emory L. Coblentz, accompanied by Mr. Charles H. Baughman, Dr. C.

H. Conley and Mr. C. H. Eckstein--made the trip in a large automobile, leaving the city early this morning.

They are expected to return to Frederick this afternoon. The force of hands at present engaged in making the repairs is not a large one, but Superintendent Anderson said this morning that the work would be completed within a week and the cars running again on the old ine. The workmen are removing the rails and crossties today: the latter vill be replaced with new ones and ballasted; new track will not be aid but any rails badly worn will oe replaced with others taken from other points on the line. New- connec- ionse will be made and when the line completed it w-ill be as good as new. The present track has been laid for over 15 years and during that time has seen some good service.

Repairs vould not have been out of place some ime ago, but as no real trouble was ever met in the working of the line and as the company had its hands more than full with its many changes ia the city during the last year, they put this off to a more convenient time In some places the rails have sunk considerably and at others they have become loosened from the ties anc have spread slightly, and while not dangerous this has made the line rather rough for traffic. On Sunday the summer schedule of the railroad will be changed to the regular winter schedule. Announcement of the changes in the times of trains will be published in The Post several days and long enough before the time to give full notice to all patrons. About the first of the month the "Loop trip." which has been so popular throughout nearly the entire summer, will be discontinued because of the change of the schedule of the "Western Maryland Railroad, which goes into effect then. Arrested Again.

John H. Carroll, colored, who has repeatedly been before the justices of the peace on account of his desertion of his family, was again before Justice Lloyd T. MacGill yesterday on the same charge.

Persons acquainted with Clagett and his doings say thai on his last two visits to Frederick he paid off debts alleged to be due by his father to the amount of about $1.800. Yesterday, it was said, a man approached Clagett at the hotel and said the hater's father had owed him a certain amount of money. "All right." said Clagett, "make out a receipt for it." And he paid the man and then took him into bar and up the drinks MORE BALLOOy ASCEXSIOXS.

Jacobs soared to the height of 300 feet in both ascensions, coming down with the balloon.

In the second flight a spark ignited top of the balloon burning it badly. Jacobs claims there is something wrong with ihe balloon, because he can never reach a greater height than about 30w feet. He intends to try to get some information concerning the trouble. VELVETS! SATIXS! VELVETS! SATIXS!
