The roads in most places are good now, but in those places where thev have been worked recently they will be exceptionally bad when it rains. The split log drag is the best remedy for roads that are easily cut. Spring and summer are the seasons for extensive road building and fall and winter for light work and a liberal use of | the drag. On account of the winter ! rain thp least loose dirt thrown into I the road in the fall, the better for the roads. Death of Mrs, Sarali E. Cromer. Mrs. Sarah E.

He took an active and intelli~| ; gciit interest in al! matters pertaining j . , j to the work ot t.ie cnurcn ana tne up-1 building and betterment of the com-] niunity, and is one of the strongest and best preachers in the Lutheran church. Before entering tin- ministry he was! J a lawyer and at one time assistant i attorney general of the State of Mary-; land. He is now going back to his;, I ^i T? * ~ -*?-?-? r\ +:^ ,.,;n ! lirsi luve. uni cti me same nine ?in t i continue his connection with thp! i church and serve a congregation that; is so situated tha. it can not go into; a pastorate. The editor of The Herald and Xew* personally is very, much pleased to learn of his success and we feel sure that there are many other friends in Xewberry who will also be pleased to hear of it. For six years he has been doing! aouoie auiy iu ciiuruu auu siait*, ao pastor of iTrinity Lutheran church, six mile? from Westminister,Md.,preaching erv Sunday morning and discharging , other pastoral duties faithfully; and court clerk constantly at his post during office liours. His clerkship expores December 1st. He was appoint-1 ; d to it six years ago, not as a political ( appointment, but as a business prop-, osition. Many expected him ihis year; to run for the office of clerk of the circuit court. He says he preferred the state's attorney's office, and went j into the primary fight, with the whole Republican organization against him, j and one of the chief arguments against! him was his long residence in the ! South and the fact that he was "not as | 2-ood a Republican" as his opponent j in the primary. He made the primary j tight and won with a majority of 299. ! Then came the November fight against; the Democratic nominee, in a county! with a registered Democratic majority of 479. In the general election 011 No-, vember 2 he won with a vote of 4,042 < to his opponent's >2,002, a majority of 1,040. leading the whole ticket, with 400 majority more than the next highi est man, Democrat and Republican.!' This ghes some idea-of the victory and it is gratifying to the many friends oi Mr. Seabrook that he has come back into his own at the bar and in the county, just where he was when he gave up his practice years ago to serve the church. Mr. Seabrook expects to practice law generally in connection with the the state's attorneyship, which carries a salary of $2,000, with more than enough fees attached to meet office rent, etc. i At the same time he will not give up his church work, but will have more time to give his people as their pastor and will serve them as long as they desire his services. His church, with a membership of nearly 100, is so located that it can not be put in a pastorate with any other, and until he came to it eight years ago had had bo pastor for seven years. ^ "? 1- -? - i.i 4- T"> -wr. spaorocK is me nisi ncpuuncau ; ever elected state's attorney of the, county, and his majority is the largest ever given to any man in the county of any party for any office. 1 General Session Jnrors.
