Great Suffrage Parade.
Thousands of Women Parade
In Washington In Cause of
Suffrage.
It is estimated that 5,t'00 women march
ed in the suffrage parade and that about
500,000 people looked on at Washington
last Monday. It was suffiagette’s day
and for the time being president-elect
Wilson was forgotten. Women of nation
al prominence, social leaders, wage
workers, students and representatives of
all vocations turned out.
Washington saw the greatest woman
suffrage parade and perhaps the most
spectacular demonstration and best-stag
ed display that the national capital has
ever witnessed.
The passing of 5,000 or more women up
Pennsylvania avenue, in brilliant colored
costumes, mounted astride their horses,
tramping afoot, carrying the standards
of nearly every State in the Union, or
seated upon floats representing the pro
gress that the suffrage cause has made
in this country, brought to the line of
march nearly every visitor in the city
and half the native population.
It was estimated by General John A.
Johnson, Commissioner of the District i
of Columbia, that 500,000 persons watch
ed the women march for their cause.
The marchers practically fought their
way foot by foot up the avenue through
a surging throng that completely defied |
the Washington police, swamped the pa- j
raders and broke their procession into j
little companies.
The women, trudging stoutly along un-1
der great difficulties, were able to com
plete their march only when troops from
Fort Myer were ru; hed to the city to
take charge of the avenue. No inaugu
ration has ever produced such scenes,
which in many instances amounted to
nothing less than riot. On the whole, it
was a hostile crowd through which the
women marched.
It is said to have been the greatest
crowd on Pennsylvania avenue in sixteen
years.

000 production, the wonderful spectacle
play of modern China,
THE DAUGHTER OF HEAVEN,
by Pierre Loti and Jnkith Gautier. Viola
All.-n and the New York Century Thea
tre cast of more than 200 including native
Chinese, Koreans and Japanese; English
adaptation by George Egerlon.
As a scenic production distinguished
from the merely spectacular “The Daugh
ter of Heaven” is an artistic achieve
ment, The play opens in the Emperor’s
palace at Pekin, and with the opening
begins a series of beautiful interiors in
which the superb refinement of Chinese
decorative art is abundantly shown.
The third scene shows the palace gar
den at Nankin, with the characteristic
garden landscape, the rustic bridge, the
architectural exterior of the palace jut
ting in, the docile domestic fowls, etc.
The plot involves the romance of the
Emperor of the Manchus and the Em
press of the Mings, the Emperor dis
guised as a viceroy, is traveling for ad
venture, sees the Empress borne by in
her palanquin and gains admission to her
court, falls deeply in love with her just
as war is declared by one of his own
kingdom who has been left in command
during his absence.
Among the principal members of the
cast are Viola Allen, Basil Gill, Morris
Millington, Lee Baker, Bernard Fairfax,
Henry Bergman, and others.

Chronic Stomach Trouble Cured.
There is nothing more discouraging
than a chronic disorder of the stomach,
and it is not surprising that many suffer
for years with such an ailment when a
permanent cure is within their reach and
may be had for a trifle. “About, one year
ago,” says P. H. Beck, Wakelee, Mich.,
VI bought a package of Chamberlain’s
Tablets, and since using them 1 have felt
perfectly well. I had previously used any
number of different medicines, but none
of them were of any lasting benefit.”

Freight Car Robbed.
Twolve Cans of Lard Hauled or
Carried Away.
Last Saturday night after the arrival
of the freight train from Baltimore, what
is known here as the Frederick merchan
dise car was broken into and robbed. The
fact was not known here until some time
after the cur had been taken to Freder
ick, and after four cans of lard were
found Sunday morning by Mr. Harry
Hetterly along what is known as the
Apples church road near the residence
of Mr Jacob Freeze. Mr. Hetterly made
inquiry at ihe VV. M. depot if any cars
had been robbed, but nothing was known.
A message was sent to the Frederick
railroad office, and the officials there
stated that twelve cans of lard were
missing.
After Mr. Hetterly found the lard he
reported to Mr. Freeze and they took the
four cans to the latter’s home where it
was kept until sent for by Mr. Harry
Kuch, agent for the Western Maryland
at this place. 'I he cans and lard were
in good condition and did not show signs
of rnugh handling. Just why these four
cans should have been left along the road
is not known. So far no clue has been
found which would lead to the guilty
parties.
Mr. Hetterly is an employe of the W.
M., being yard boss at the local shops at
this place.

Bough Weather Sunday.
Weather conditions last Sunday were
most disagreeable. Saturday night the
mercury began dropping and Sunday the
air was keen. A strong wind prevailed
and the sun was partly obscured by heavy
clouds. About ten o’clock a snow storm
passed over. The wind continued all dur
ing the day.
From various parts of the country
wind caused much damage. At Waynes
boro, roofs were torn from a number of
buildings.
Baltimore and New York report high
winds, and Buffalo, N. Y., the worst
blizzard of several years swept down
from the Great Lakes and threatened to
completely paralyze traffic. The gale
rose to 80 miles an hour and carried a
light drifting snow that soon blocked
streets and country roads, often to a
depth of nine and ten feet.
By Monday the cold wave h ;d passed
and the temperature rose considerably.
Attended Inauguration.
So far as we have learned the follow
ing persons from Thurmont visited in
Washington and witnessed the inaugural
ceremony and parade on Tuesday, viz:
Misses M. Beth Waesche,
Mrs. Jas. H. Firor, Messrs. Charles M.
Root, Howard Freeze, Roscoe Mackley,
William Foreman, Ray Tenney, Victor
Birely. No doubt others from this vicin
ity were in Washington, but we are not
aware of the fact.
Frederick To Have Brewery.
Frederick is to have a brewery. This
statement was made Saturday morning j
by 0. V. Heath, of Chicago, who has
been in Frederick for several weeks in
in the interest of a brewing project, and
he stated he has secured $42,000 in stock
subscriptions. The plan is to incorporate
with a $150,000 capital, although this
amount of money will probably not be
raised before actual building begins.
Mr. Heath stated he has been connect
ed with some of the largest breweries of
the country and said that many started
on a capital of $50,000 or less. He stated
he considered Frederick as an ideal place
for starting a brewery.
The plant, he stated, would largely be
a home concern, and said the stock sub
scriptions to date are mostly local peo
ple. The plan is to erect a plant with a
capacity of about 30,000 barrels of beer
per year, and to have the plant so con
structed that additions may be made at
any time and the output increased.
Already Mr. Heath stated he has se
cured options on three pieces of ground,
all along the railroads and within the cor
porate limits of Frederick. This he stated
would make the industry a taxpaying one
to the city.
Mr. Heath said he regarded the con
struction of a brewery as assured, al-
I though it is desired to have more money
1 than has now been raised. He stated it
'■ would be possible to build a small brew
ery with the money in hand and to do a
good business. The plan will be to make
! a very high grade of beer. He stated
from the present outlook, the company
' will be incorporated within a few weeks
and that the actual beginning of building
operations will be made before April 1.
( It is claimed because of the failure of
the Hagerstown brewery that there is an
exceptional opening for a brewery in this
territory and that reached by the raiL
roads radiating from Frederick. Cum
i berland has a very prosperous and large
! brewery.—News.
Pruning Demonstration.
Orchardists Witness Expert
Prune Fruit Trees.
On Thursday of last week Mr. H. C.
Trayers of the Maryland Agricultural
College came to Thurmont for the pur
pose of demonstrating how fruit trees
should be pruned so us to produce the
best fruit for market.
Ho was taken to the home of Mr. Chas.
Weller south of town and began work.
Mr. Weller has an SOO peach tree orchard
and also considerable apple trees; Mr.
Travers stating that it was the finest
orchard of 2-year old peach trees he had
ever seen.
Not knowing he was coming until the
evening previous, little chance was given
to notify other persons having orchards,
but about a dozen men were on hand'to
see and learn.
After pruning several peach trees, and
explaining why he did this and that, Mr.
Travers handed the shears to Mr. Weller
and told him to proceed. After complet
ing one tree, Mr. Travers pronounced the
job well done. Other persons were put
through the same course.
Later Mr. Travers visited the orchards ,
on the farms of Mr. Hooker Lewis, John 1
H. Moser and Wm. A. Fogle, giving i
demonstrations in each orchard. The |
Messrs Kelbaughwho have large orchards |
north of town we interested visitors at |
the above places.
Mr. Travers in trimming cuts from the
center of the tree. This is done to leave
sunlight and air to the fruit in the center j
of the tree, all of which tends to grow |
and ripen the fruit to perfection.
Everyone present was very much pleas
ed with their instructor and the work he
done and had them to do.
Answers to Milk Measuring Problem.
The problem: A man has an 8 gallon
can filhd with milk. Another man comes
along who wants to buy 4 gallons of the
milk, hut there is nothing to measure
with oxc( pt a 13 gallon can and a 6gallon
can. The sale can be made, hut how is
the measuring done?
Tlie following answer is the first re
ceived and is a correct solution to the
above;
Thurmont, Md., Feb. 21, 19115.
Editor Clarion :
In answer to the problem found in the
last issue of the Clarion, 1 would give
the following solution: First pour the 5
gallon can full from 8 gallon can, thus
leaving 3 gallons in 8 gallon can. Then
pour the 3 gallon can full from the 5 gal
lon can. Then pour the 3 gallon
can full over into 8 gallon can,
which now has only 6 gallons in.
Then pour the 2 remaining gallons in 5
gallon can over into the 3 gallon can.
Then fill the 5 gallon can full from 8 gal
lon can (which has only (3 gallons in) thus
leaving 1 gallon in 8 gallon can. Then
the 8 gallon can has 1 gallon in, the 5
gallon is full, and the 3 gallon can has 2
gallons in. Then fill 3 gallon can from
, r > gallon can, which requires 1 gallon.
Pour the 3 gallon can full into 8 gallon
can, thus making 4 gallons in 8 gallon
can and leaving 4 gallons in 5 gallon can.
C. L. Hauvf.k.
Mr. Henry C. Foreman, of Thurmont,
came in next, he having two ways, first
by tilling the 5 gallon can first, and second
by filling the 3 gallon can first. Mr. K.
R, Damuth, of Baltimore, found two
ways by which to measure the milk.
Messrs. C. 1. Creager, John Moser and
C'osmus Fox, all of this place sent cor
rect answers, they tilling the 5 gallon can
first.
A correct answer was also received
from Mias May Sharrer, of Thurmont.
Along with one of the above answers
came the following problem which we
give our readers for solution:
Another problem may be applied to A’s
and It’s milk measure problem. B’s 3
gallon can is 10 inches high and his 5 gal
lon can is as high as his 3 gallon can and
half of A’s 8 gallon can, and A’s 8 gallon
can is as high as B’s 3 and 5 gallon can
together. What is the tot'd height of
all three cans in inches.
We would like to have answers from
pupils of the public school.
Fined $4.75.
Last week one evening Messrs. Black,
Ridenour, Brown and Willhide, young
men of near Thurmont, went to Emmits
burg and whde there hurled epithets at
guardian of the law, policeman Duke
hart. Mr. Dukehart swore out warrants
for the the arrest of these persons and
the writs were sent to constable Clarence
Lidie of this place.
Messrs. Black, Ridenour and Brown
were arrested Monday evening and taken
before a Justice of the Peace at Emmits
burg, who, after hearing evidence in the
case fined each $4.75. Swearing on the
streets of Emmitsburg isst*-' ,uy against
the law and we understand the law is be
ing rigidly enforced. Perhaps it would
help matters considerable if more atten
tion would be given this same law in
Thurmont.
'
Married.
On Wednesday evening, February 26,
1913, Mr. Harvey Stambaugh, ot near
Rocky Ridge, and Mias Maude G. Pryor,
of near Thurmont, were united in mar
’ riage by Rev. P. E. Heimer, pastor of
Trinity Reformed church, at his residence,
E. Main street, Thurmont. The newly
married people will reside at the home
of the groom near Rocky Ridge.
