Special Services.
Mountain City Council, No. 11, and
Freedom Council, No. 123, Junior Or
der United American Mechanics, and
Washing-ton Camp, No. 41, Patriotic
Order Sons of America, will in a bod}'
attend a special Patriotic Service in
St. John’s Episcopal Church to-mor
row (Sunday) evening. There will be
a special sermon by the rector, Rev.
F. M. C. Bedell, and special music for
the occasion. . St. John’s regular
choir will be assisted by N. T. Hock
ing and other singers. Seats will be
reserved for the two Orders, and all
others interested are cordially invited
to be present.
Plenty of Spread.
A farmer who resides in the south
ern part of the county, while in the
city recently gave glowing accounts
of a coal mine which he expected to
start on his place.
A few days later one of his friends,
who had in the meantime investigated
the proposition, met him again.
“Say, John,” exclaimed the friend,
“that vein on your farm is only about
four inches thick.”
“Yes, I know it isn’t very thick,”
replied the farmer, “but it is mighty
wide. ’’ —Youngstown Telegram.
Probably the Same Bolt.
Cumberland was alarmed by a thun
derbolt from a clear sky Saturday af
ternoon, last. There was one here
about the same moment —instantly
after a brilliant flash, but it was
raining.
A Regret.
“A rural subscriber asks—
‘Do hogs pay?’
We know that a good many don’t.
They take the paper several years
and then have the postmaster send it
back marked ‘refused.’ Such a breed
is usually two-legged and unprofit
able.”, —Cumberland News.
Still—if they could only be penned,
fattened and butchered!
The Size of It.
Frostburg’s postal savings bank re
taining its position at the bottom of
the list would indicate that the resi
dents of the Mountain City have con
fidence in their home banking institu
tions Cumberland American.
Coming Events.
So far as known, Messrs. W. H. De-
Neen, A. Charles Stewart, Nicholas
T. Hocking, Fred. Wehner, O. R.
If ice, Samuel B. Johnson, George
Stern and J. William Shea will repre
sent the Frostburg Elks at the Elks’
National Convention at Atlantic City
during the week beginning on the 10th
inst.
It was determined Monday that the
next hearing of the suit pending be
tween the Bowery Coal Company and
the Borden Mining Company will be
held Wednesday, Sth inst. The issue
is—how much shall the Borden Min
ing Company pay the Bowery Coal
Company for the improvements made
by the latter during the four-year
lease?
Accident.
Harry Williams, Maple street, work
ing in Consolidation Coal Company
mine No. 7 a few days ago, had his
right ear badly cut by a fall of coal.
Not serious, but very painful.
Ten Per Cent. Annually.
The Fidelity Savings Bank of Frost
burg declared its semi-annual divi
dend of 5 per cent, to its Stockholders
for June 30. This is a splendid Bank.
Its growth is constant and steady.
Keep Him Where He Is.
Item of current news:
Ex-Governor Frank Brown says
his own candidacy is secondary to
his desire to see the Democrats
nominate a man from Baltimore
city for governor.
When tbe Journal first knew Frank
he was “a country boy.”
Eooks now like the lure to the city
has transmogrified him.
Hence, aspiring to govern Mary
land, via Baltimore, the county people
should make Frank’s alienation harm
less.
Industrial Question.
A Tuesday evening ex- j
doubt of the feasibility
of establishing a woolen factory here.
Could not give a reason why—only -
felt that way.
Next day a dispatch from “Terra- j
Alta, W. Va., June 28,”. appeared:
The Terra Alta woolen mills,
the principal industry of Terra
Alta, W. Va., were burned this
evening, the fire starting in the
rag-picking room. The loss is
$75,000, with $20,000 insurance.
Fifty people are thrown out of em
ployment. The fire was discov
ered at 6:10 p. m., and 50 minutes
later the walls fell.
If a woolen factory employing fifty
hands, could be maintained in a town
less than one-fifth the size of Frost
burg, why could not one employing
many more be established and sus
tained here?
Brevities.
That is a pretty racy controversy
going on over “whiskers,” and- the
Journal believes the ladies are mis
represented by both sides. In other
words, the Journal believes the la
dies are willing to let every gentle
man indulge his pleasure in the
matter.
Ready for Work.
Date last week a gentleman named.
McDowell, from Cecil county, arrived
with 20 men—lo white, 10 colored, ex
pert road-builders.
All went to the summit of Great {
Savage, where temporary buildings J
were to be erected for shelter during j
the construction of the 4.18 miles of
National Pike west of the Garrett
county line.
With the machinery and about 40
more men due this week it is expected
that work will begin in earnest to-day. I
POSIMPROOF.
Should Convince the Greatest
Skeptic in Frostburg.
Because it’s the evidence of a Frost
burg citizen.
Testimony easily investigated.
The strongest endorsement of merit.
The best proof. Read it:
Mrs. Eliza Preston, 77 W. Eoo
St., Frostburg, Md., says: “I was so
badly troubled by my kidneys that
often I was obliged to lie down. I
had bad attacks of dizziness and there
was a dull, weary ache over my kid
neys. My joints and limbs became
sore and I felt all tired out. Last
summer I was worse than ever before.
Having, heard of a party who had
been cured of a similar complaint by
Doan’s Kidney Pills, I obtained a box
and began using them. They were
more beneficial than any other medi
cine I had ever taken and since using
them, I have enjoyed good health.”
(Statement given November 16, 1907.)
A Confirmed Endorsement.
On May 17, 1911, Mrs. Preston said:
“I am pleased to verify the public
. statement I gave in 1907, recommend
ing Doan’s Kidney Pills. My experi
ence with them has been so satisfac
tory that it is a pleasure to tell of
their merit.”

Scholastic.
From the State Teachers’ Associa
tion meet this week at Braddock
Heights Prof. A. F. Smith, principal
of Central High School, Lonaconing,
went to New York to take a summer
course in the tuition department of
Columbia University. He will be
away from home nearly two months.
Answer.
Question: Why is it that the
editor of the Times always es
pouses the wrong side of a case ?
—Cumberlad News.
It may be because the News, coming
out earlier in the day, always gets
to the right side first.
A Call to Higher Study.
Western Maryland College re-ap
pears in these columns this week so
liciting the patronage of the people.
This College has established a repu
tation in the 44 years of its existence
as a safe, thorough and earnest
school. It has just had a notable cel
ebration—a home-coming Commence
ment in honor of the completion of
the twenty-fifth year of its president,
Doctor Thomas H. Lewis. And the
large gathering of old students was a
speaking testimonial to the high re
gard in which this College is held.
Its young people are doing it credit
and its work has been felt all over the
State. From its recent catalogue it
appears to have 242 students and 21
teachers. It has graduated over 800.
The courses of study cover the usual
subjects in the best Colleges and we
have no reason to think they are not
well covered. We are interested es
pecially in the course of Pedagogy
which is offered to graduates, by
which they are prepared to teach in
the Public Schools and are given a
certificate to teach by the State Board
of Education without examination.
We have heard nothing but good re
ports of this institution and we com
mend it to our readers.
The Sick.
Thomas D. Price, son of D. D. Price,
Frost avenue, underwent surgical
treatment for appendicitis in Western
Maryland Hospital, Cumberland, last
Saturday, and is recovering.
Jason L. Towles, Orman street, con
tinues critically ill.
Louis Beettuer, of this place, is in
Allegany Hospital, Cumberland, re
covering from an operation for appen
dicitis.
Mrs. William R. Coyner, of Cum
berland, formerly of this place, is re
ported hopelessly ill.
Financial.
The First National Bank directors
held a meeting Tuesday and declared
a semi-annual dividend of 6 per cent.,
an increase of 1 per cent, upon declar
ations heretofore. The surplus was
also augmented in the sum of SS,OCX),
making it now $15,000.
The directors of the Fidelity Sav
ings Bank met same day and declared
a semi-annual dividend of 5 per cent.
A Foolish Attempt at Horse-
Thieving.
Thursday evening of last week
William Whetstone, of this place, and
a young man giving his name as
Jones, from Blaine, W. Va., hired a
horse from William Kalmyer, a local
liveryman. The young men stated
that they intended going no farther
than the Fire-Clay Dump, and would
return at 10 p. m. This they failed to
do, and on the following morning the
liveryman called up the authorities at
Grantsville and discovered that they
had passed through that place several
hours previous. Kallmyer’s next call
| was Friendsville. Here he found that
the culprits had passed just a short
time prior.
Later the same day the liveryman
received a message front the Sheriff
at Oakland stating that the men had
been caught in the act of selling the
horse. They were imtnedately placed
under arrest and lodged in the lock-up
at Friendsville. Thence Sheriff
Hendley brought the men to Cumber
land and~placed them in the county
prison.
Monday evening they were brought
to this place for the preliminary hear
| ing, which was held in Squire Cham
bers’ office.
Whetstone was held for the Grand
Jury.
The other man was given his free
dom, it being conclusively shown that
he w'as not the same one who was
with Whetstone when the latter hired
the horse.
Meanwhile, the authorities near
Oakland are on the lookout for
“Jones.”
State’s attorney Robb appeared for
the Commonwealth and during the
cross-examination of a witness he was
interrupted several times by “Joke”
Rankin, an on-looker from Allegany.
The attorney was much ruffled by
“Joke’s” interference, finally to the
verge of making the latter think
j something had snipped off his nose.
But at the sight of blood the really
good-natured attorney immediately
paid—not only his own fine, but Ran
kin’s also.
Meanwhile, Kallmyer’s horse has
been restored, and there will be no
further developments anent until
1 Court convenes.

Enjoyable Trip.
Detroit, Mich., June 20, 1911.
e To the Mining Journal.
1 Arrived here at 8 o’clock this morn
-3 ing after a delightful all-night ride
’ across Lake Erie from Cleveland. Of
■ course, we came on the boat, as the
1 lake is never over-frozen at this sea
-3 son.
Our trip was both eventful and
5 pleasant.
Starting, as we did, however, with
5 machines and 18 passengers about 8
o’clock Sunday morning, with the rain
• coming down torrentially, the pros
-1 pect for a pleasant trip was anything
1 but alluring. We had planned to go,
1 though, and determined to execute it.
5 Garrett county and part of Sonier
-1 set, Pa., if entered in a “good roads”
5 contest wouldn’t get an “honorable
5 mention” certificate, for some places
3 are almost impassable—a sad state
’ when one considers that at one time
3 the National Pike was the main high
-3 way through our country.
5 I voice the sentiments of all the
boys when I say that both Frostburg
and Cumberland will be immensely
benefitted by the restoration of this
thoroughfare to its once almost per
fect condition as it traversed one of
’’ the most beautiful sections in the
1 world.
3 Inspired with patriotism, we stopped
on the summit of the mountain, just
1 east of the “Stone House,” and held
an impromptu memorial service over
the grave of the old Braddock soldier
buried there.
From Addison to Somerfield 'the
road is one grand boulevard, and from
the latter place to Pittsburg, via
, Brownsville, it is fairly good. From
Pittsburg to Cleveland, excepting a
few places, we had excellent roads,
r especially between Pittsburg and
1 Sewickley, and Bedford, 0., and
Cleveland. Between the latter places
r there is fourteen miles of brick solid
and smooth as Broadway.
To-morrow we will go to Mt. Clem
ens; return here for the night, and
Thursday start, returning, via Toledo,
’ Columbus, Wheeling, Pittsburg,
Johnstown and Bedford.
Sorry you are not with us, for I am
‘ sure you would have enjoyed the out
ing. Besides, we need a press agent
to answer in rhetorical terms the
many ungrammatical questions asked
along the line.
Well, it’s almost 1 o’clock, and as I
am the last of the bunch out of bed
. I’ll ring off and go, too.
But say—this is indeed a beautiful
city. For up-to-dateness it has some
of our eastern towns beaten 1760
yards, I am sorry to confess.
With kindest regards for the Jour
nal, I am Yours truly,
Lloyd L. Shaffer.
“Lest We Forget.”
New York City, June 26, 1911.
To the Mining Journal.
The Fourth of July is the day you
and I used to look for with longing
and pleasure, and with pennies we’d
- saved and a few more we’d craved,
• bought of rockets and crackers a
t treasure.
Very early we’d rise, and our break
• fast despise; sustained by good cheer
we would go to the Centennial Grounds
—the old picnic grounds, and there
our bombardments we’d show.
To the otjfer glad boys, who grew
• fat on noise*and who never had heard
. of the “dub’\ who inspired the thought
that gave birth to the rot that’s es
poused by the New Civic Club.
This is putting it strong, and in whole
cloth it’s wrong; still, there are civics
enough to pursue without robbing the
’ boys of their annual joys, at least
that’s what I think —now, don’t you?

Re-Elections.
At the recent annual meeting of the
stockholders of the Cumberland and
Westernport Electric Railway Com
pany officers and directors were re
elected as follows:
President —Ferdinand Williams, of
Cumberland.
Secretary—D. Percy Hartzell, of
Cumberland.
Directors—Henry E. Doherty, of
New York; R. H. Koch, of Pottsville,
Pa.; John T. Edwards, of Cumber
land, and John S. Brophj% of Frost
burg.
Since last meeting a modern signal
system has been established along the
line, eliminating danger of collisions.
Am EveMiMg in tlie Woods.
A wireless message came up Tues
day evening— “Journai, wanted at
Six-Mile House.”
First car was taken; 25 minutes later
jumped off into a waiting automobile,
and 2 minutes still later came near
over-turning a coffee-pot, resting on
fire in the woods.
Lunch was served—sandwiches,
weinerwurst, coffee-best, etc., and
while at table, which was spread on
the ground, L. C. Nied sang with
much melody “My Old Kentucky
Home, Far, Far Away.”
Alex. Smyth cheered Mr. Nied with
a boisture that induced Fred. Wehner
to ask—“what is the matter?”
Sandy explained that he had never
been in “Old Kentucky,” but he had
heard enough to make anybody happy.
A motion was made by Will. H. Jef
fries and adopted unanimously that
George Stern be excused for lunching
with his hat on. (George had stated
to Will., confidentially, that it is un
parliamentary to take off one’s hat
pending any out-door function, and
Will., knowing that George had once
attended a Hebrew camp-meeting, be
lieved him.)
At George Junior Wittig’s sugges
tion Alex. Hocking sang—“My Stradi
various Fiddle; or, Why I Never Sing
in the Presence of Ladies,” and the
apology, set to violin measure, was
unanimously accepted.
Norris E. Wetmore was asked to re
