MINING^^kJoiIRNAL. J. HENSON Ol) Ell, Editor. FROSTBURG, MD. MARCH 21, 1913 ELECTRIC RAILWAYISM. „ The Piedmont (W. Va.) Herald wants some “public-spirited financiers” to promote “the project of an electric railway line from Keyser to Bloom ington byway of McCoole, Western port, Piedmont, Luke and Beryl.” And then it clinches the advantages with this statement: “Here is a seven-mile line with seven towns already located and thriving, to feed, to say nothing of the immense traffic that would come down George’s Creek through Westerhport.” It is hard to tell, however, how that will strike the lawyers who are presi dent and counsel of railways. If towns are already built, they must surrender very nearly all their street rights to the company in order to get the road; “because you know, we are a great advantage to the town. We help it to grow bigger, and bigger, and bigger!” If a section of a town wants a Belt Bine, however, in order to promote building development and real-estate progressiveness, they laugh at “the idea of such a thing!” Hence, it is very hard to settle on a line of advice to the Herald concern ing just the policy to adopt in carry ing on a campaign for the Keyser- Bloomington electric railway enter prise. With the electric-railway corpora tion, as with the king, everything the people want is wrong. Be Glad Anyway. Over in Oakland the Democrat en joins its readers— “lf it rains, be glad it didn’t snow, because you don’t have the pavements to clean,” or—- “If it sno\ys, be glad it isn’t rain, because you don’t need an umbrella in a snowstorm.” Coming Events. The first dance of “The Ruby Seal Club” is scheduled for Friday even ing, 28th inst., in Terpsichorean Hall, Frostburg Opera House, and a pleas ant time is anticipated.

The Women’s Home Missionary So ciety, First M. E. Church, held its regular monthly meeting last Satur day at residence of Mrs. James E. a Crump, Bowery street. The preceding week of “self-denial” resulted in the saving of about S3O for appropriation to payment of a debt incurred by the national body. “A free-will offering” by the 30 members present resulted in the acquisition of about S7O for donation toward furnishing a room in the Miners Hospital, leaving- S3O to be se cured from about 30 absent members.

Richard O’Neill, of Baltimore, has been appointed pastor of St. Michtel’s Catholic Church. He is originally an Allegauian, and has many relatives in the county. Forecast. Over in Jeannette, Pa., the Dispatch tells its readers that — “Easter bonnets will bloom much earlier this spring.” If it can be said that an “Easter ** bonnet” in a show-window is “in bloom,” there are several big, pretty bouquets in Frostburg. The Sick. James Findley Ivoch, son of James T. Koch, of WBridgeville, Pa., was re ported seriously ill late last week. He is a little grand-son of Mrs. W. H. Koch, of this place. Dr. George Sloan, of North Yakima, passed through the coun ty Tuesday to Johns Hopkins Hos pital, Baltimore, attending his brother —Aleck, also of North Yakima, who is ill. ProHonaced According to Law. There ws trouble last week between Saul Prajger and “Hank,” of the Cum berland News, the latter testifying that— “ Saul Prajger don’t like the way I pronounce the word, ‘Bucia.’ “I give the second syllable a soft sound, according to Dago lingo. “But Saul, a stickler for the ethics of the legal profession, says the pro nunciation is Bu-zt-cher, with a sneeze attached.” The Apostles’ Creed—and Mine. I believe! in God, Creator of Heaven and of earth ; By whosb Omnipotence all creatures, great and small, gave birth ! And in tie Holy Trinity—the Blessed Three in One— The Holy Ghost and Jesus Christ, God’s Own Begotten Son ! Who, by the Spirit was conceived and of a Virgin born, Was crucified for our sakes, but rose on Easter morn ; And who to Heaven did ascend, and sitteth near the Throne, By God's right hand, where He will wait to welcome all His own. And in, one Apostolic Church—the Church of Christ, which finds No difference in Creeds, Beliefs and Faiths, but only binds The hearts of all God’s children in Universal Peace—• To dWell in Blessed Bonds of Bove, when all contentions cease. And I believe that Heaven’s Saints together shall commune, And that, through Faith in Christ, we may from sin become immune, And receive full absolution through His Redeeming Grace ; And that we shall be like Him when we see Him face to face. Sara Roberta' Getty. ASPIRATION. THE desire of the moth for the star, Of the night for the morrow, The devotion to something afar From sphere of our sorrow. —Shelley. THE MARCH OF GREECE. WHOSE face, whose on high, Lifts through the sky That aureole? Who over earth and sea Cries victory? Europe, thy soul Comes home to thee! Is it a dream; a cloud That thus hath rent the shroud To speak, sublime and proud, Thy faith aloud, Whose eyes make young and fair All things in earth and air, The shadow of whose white wing Makes violets spring? Is it the angel of day Whom the blind pray Still, that their faith May sleep sound by night? Blood stained, yet white, Rerisen, she saith, Let there be light! Whose are the conquering eyes Tnat turn through those dark skies? Whose is the voice that cries: “Awake! Arise!" For if she speak one word To sheath or draw the sword Her nations on that day Answer her—Yea! It is the angel of God, Sun crowned, fire shod, Bidding hate cease. Her proud voice on high Bids darkness die. Her name is Greece Or—Liberty! —Alfred Henry Noyes in London Mail. WHAT OF YOU AND ME? THINK when soul understands The great wobd which makes all things new, When earth breaks up and heaven ex pands, How will the change strike me and you In the house not made with hands! —Browning. BLUM MEANT WELL He Was Only Living Up to the Rules of His Club. Under the second empire bores were so rampant that a sort of society or club was formed to fight them under the name of the “Rachat des Captifs.” U was a mutual aid society, every member of which was bound to come to the rescue of any other in the clutch es of a buttonholing bore. The signal of distress was given by unobtrusively Scratching the side of one’s nose, and a colleague on seeing this was expected to intervene and deliver his friend from captivity. The society was so useful and so pop ular-even humanitarian, it may be said —that it flourished exceedingly for many years and grew rich in members and subscriptions. Among its mem bers was the veteran journalist Ernest Blum, who, however, was rather clum sy at his work, yje used to relate the following story: “One day in passing the Gymnase I saw two men talking. I knew one of them and took off my hat to him, whereupon he at once scratched his nose. “I, of course, thought, he was a mem ber of the club in distress whom I ought to deliver, so approached and, not knowing what to say, cried out: ‘My dear X., I am delighted to meet you. I have an important piece of new’s to tell you. Allow me?’ turning to the other man. ‘Certainly,’ replied this gentleman. I took my comrade aside, saying: ‘You know I have noth ing at all to tell you. I only wanted to rescue you. That is all.’ ‘Rescue me from what?’ ‘Why, from the bore.’ ‘What bore ?’ ‘The man you were talk ing to, naturally.’ ‘But he is my fa ther.’ ” Poor Blum had chanced upon some body who was not a member of the so ciety and who had merely scratched his nose absently or because he wanted to, which may happen to any man.— Paris Annales. Fitted For the Part. When a new member of the Irish house of commons made his first speech. Sir William Osborne asked who he was. and being told he replied: “Well, I think he will do. If the oppo sition have enlisted him, they are per fectly In the right, for he seems to have the finest face for a grievance of any man I ever beheld.”—National Monthly. A Remington Story. On Thanksgiving day a number of years ago the late Frederic Remington was in London, his first visit to Eng land, where he announced to his friends he intended to “have a real vacation, away from mustangs and Indians.” As a tribute to the noted artist, American residents in London joined in arrang ing a splendid Thanksgiving feast. Remington, of course, to be the guest of honor. The chef of the Hotel Carlton was told to spare no expense in obtain ing fat gobblers, bluepoints. sweet po tatoes and other trimmings for the j genuine old time dinner. Not a hitch occurred to mar the oc casion excepting that Remington failed to turn up. While Loildon was raked fore and aft for the celebrated artist, the guests politely waited, waited un til their stomachs quaked and their mouths watered for the luscious tur key. Late that night, when, the feast was long since despoiled, one of the guests wandered into Buffalo Billis wild west show at Earl’s court. Rem ington sat there drawing., “Do not disturb him,” ordered Colo nel Cody. “He’s getting some good local color from these Creek Indians. He’s been here since 10 o’clock this morn ing.”—Philadelphia North American. O - O 1883-1913 THIRTY YEARS AGO — ♦ —- The items below were current during the week ending March 31, 1883 o== ===== = -=Q A Frostburg salesman mounted a pair of roller-skates to “wait on” cus tomers. He was then able to make the round-trip of the store-room in half time and at half fare. Lawrence Byrnes, working in Hoff man mine of the Consolidation Coal Company, accomplished the feat Fri day, March 23d, of removing from the breast a lump of coal weighing “one ton and eight hundred weight.” Charles H. Walker was elected presi dent of the Frostburg Rolle'r-Skating Club, J. S. Metzger vice-president, R. P. Mason secretary, and D. J. Betz treasurer. Including J. M. Zimmerly, A. A. Rogers and W. Scott Burton, they constituted the executive board. George B. McCulloh was appointed ticket agent; Uriah Jones door-keeper; R. C. Paul, jr., floor-manager; Joe H. Hitchins and Charles Stark skate committee. Col. B. F. Copeland delivered his famous lecture—“ Snobs and Snob bery,” in Odd Fellows Opera House Tuesday evening, March 27th, to a large audience. In Eckhart Tuesday, March 13, 1883, Miss Maggie Eckhart was married to Mr. William Richter. * In Eonaconing Wednesday, March 28, 1883, Miss Mollie Dobbie was mar ried to Mr. Joseph Baird, both of that place, by Rev. D. H. King. In Cumberland, same day, Miss Ella Bishop, of that city, was married to Mr. John T. Taylor, junior editor of the Cumberland Times. George Ort represented the Frost burg Knights of Honor in the State Grand Lodge, in session in Baltimore. The publication. of the death of a child of Rees D. Rees was an error. “The little one” reported as “living and doing well.” Meyer Bear, of Baltimore; W. S. Hocking, of Dickinson Seminary, and John M. Oates, of Meyersdale, Pa., reported as visitors to Frostburg rela tives. Mrs. Elizabeth Hopkins, of this place, died Sunday, March 25, 1883, aged 56 years. Mrs. Olive Riggs, wife of Abner Riggs, formerly of Frostburg, died in Bosqueville, Texas, Wednesday, March 14, 1883, aged 72 years. Frances, infant daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert H.

Fatkin and Alex ander was won by the former. Prize—a silver cup. He and She met in Frostburg: He—“ May I call you Revenge?” She—“ Why?” He —“Because revenge is sweet!” She—“ Then certainly you may— provided you will let me call you Ven geance!” ( He—“ Why would you call me Ven geance?” | "She—“ Because vengeance is mine!” Put Petitions In Golf Holes. The amir of Afghanistan has taken up golf keenly and has had good links laid out in the neighborhood of Kabul. The natives were much puzzled by the well kept greens; but, recognizing the game as a royal one, they put the holes to a practical purpose, They got into the habit of placing petitions in the holes at night in the hope that they would reach the amir when he was putting next day. But his majesty’s temper apparently was not improved by the royal game. He resented this at tempt to take advantage of his recrea tions and ordered that all such peti tions be burned unread.—London Mail. Water Treatment for Shoes. A simple although effective way of “breaking in” shoes is that employed in the United States army. After the shoes have been fitted to their feet the soldiers stand in water to the shoe tops, until the leather is thoroughly soaked. Then the soldiers are put on a march, and this “hike” is kept up until the shoes are thoroughly dried on their feet. For ever afterward the shoes are perfectly comfortable, for they con form in shape to every little peculiar ity of the wearer’s feet. This method of breaking in shoes, while not new in itself, is one result of the recent investigation of the foot , troubles of the army 7 , which the special appointed board of army officers has been conducting. ♦ This Paper.

Results tell the tale. All doubt is removed. The testimony of a Frostburg citi zen can be easily investigated. What better proof can be had ? Mrs. B. T. Schofield, 96 W. Main street, Frostburg, Md., says: “For many years I suffered from pains through my back and mv limbs were so stiff and sore that I could hardly get around. The kidney secretions were in bad shape and I rested poorly at night. When in that miserable condition, I procured a box of Doan’s Kidney Pills and they helped me at once. I have since told several other people about this effective kidney medicine.” (Statement given No vember 15, 1907.) A EATER STATEMENT. Mrs. Schofield was interviewed .by our representative on May 17, 1911, and she said: “I am pleased to verify the public statement I gave in 1907, recommending Doan’s- Kidney Pills. They certainly did good work in my case.” For sale by all dealers. Price. 50 cents. Foster-Milburn Co., Buffalo, New York, sole agents for the United States.

A number of representative mem bers of the Progressive party met in Cumberland last Saturday afternoon and elected delegates to represent the county in the State Convention, Balti more, next Wednesday, as follows: George B. Wellington, George A. Pearre, Thomas G. Pownall, H. T. Mullen, George E. Eppler, David A. Robb, William J. Feaga, Andrew M. Sjmith, Thomas Fischer, Otto Hohing, Jabez J. Mealing, Emery G. Hitchins, Roland -A. Bammert and Adam E. Hitchins. The five last named are Frostburg ers. The sentiment of the meeting was strongly antagonistic to re-union with the republican party. Differences. A Kansas Ci-ty (Mo.) lawyer has found that the proper name of onion is lilium. But a long time ago a Frostburg grocer of the old school denounced a customer who called it “onion,” and, almost to his face, he challenged him— “ You don’t mean ‘onion !’ You know you mean ingern 1” to Win a Prize. Two girls met three other girls and all kissed. How many kisses were exchanged? An answer to this problem, accom panied by sl, will entitle the sender to the Journal one year. Good Roads. The time has come when unscientific patching of county roads ought to cease. The farmer needs a good road a great deal more than the pleasure driving automobilist. To the latter a bad road means simply a little discomfort. To the farmer it means many hours of time wasted as he draws his loads through the sloughs of mud. It means that he must keep more horses and that his beasts of burden will wear out quicker. Bet every farmer insist that the road officials of his neighborhood do modern scientific work! Pastoral Call Accepted. Rev. B. F. Bray, pastor of First English Baptist Church, , this place, called recently to the same office in a Baptist Church, Roanoke, Va., has ac cepted, and his congregation here has been so advised. He will not leave, however, until a successor has been secured. Mr. Bray has been here several years, and, although he is still young in ministerial work, his career has been rounded up with a success gratifying to all and to none more pleasing than himself. He has been resourceful, enterprising, industrious, and his work, both spiritual and material, has brought the church to its best condi tion since its institution. The church membership and all their affiliations, therefore, very much regret to lose service at once so pleas ing and profitable. And these expressions, so earnest and numerous, make his step one of sorrow to him also. Election of Officers. At a recent meeting Frostburg Bodge, No. 348, Loyal Order of Moose, elected officers as follows for the cur rent term of one year: Dictator —George H. Kerns. Vice-Dictator —William Capel. Prelate—George Atkinson. Secretary—Richard T. Hamill. Treasurer—John J. Price. Sergeant-at-Arms —Wesley E. Scho field. Inner Guard—William Hunter. Outer Guard—Leslie Edelman. Trustees—Charles Wegman, James Davis and A. T. Johnson. Bad Water. Messrs. N. A. Long, George Stevens and John J. McGready, representing residents of Upper Ocean, lately called upon H. V. Hesse, Superintendent of the Consolidation Coal Company, with a petition requesting investigation and remedy of water-supply conditions in that neighborhood. < The people affected, have suffered much inconvenience and fear of bad | water from both springs and wells, : and finally felt compelled to make their uneasiness formally known. Mr. Hesse received the committee very graciously and assured them of I his sympathy and aid at once. Some Advice To Ah Adviser. Frostburg, Md., March 12, 1913. To the Mining Journai,. “Bounce” was a noble dog — Ace of the canine pack ; In a gabbing gambol He invited me to amble— \ I put him on the rack. The turkey is a noble bird— • Ace of the poultry deck ; He gormandizes, struts and frets, i And gets it in the neck. “Shoe-maker, stick to your last!” The wisdom of that old injunction ■ is truly exemplified in another con -1 signment from “V. Sat Sapienti ,” in last week’s issue of the Journai,. ; The article is a reply to several al : lusions to the political standing, worthiness, popularity, etc., of his choice for town Post-Master. My dear sir, you are an able (?) ad vocate, but your claim to familiarity with “the broad field of classic learn . ing” has received several severe jolts —administered by yourself. Y'our story, imported from India by one reputed to have traveled exten sively; contains as much logic and wit 1 as your attempted eulogy a few weeks ago of the miners dfd of sincerity. Your friend evidently did not profit much from his extensive travels. One gets about as much out of the story by reading it ferninst as by reading it fer. Its significance, if it has any, is ' known only to the author. You make one coherent statement with meaning fairly clear. ; You intimate that an enlightened ' public sentiment fails to see why an ex-saloon-keeper should not aspire to become Post-Master. There is no law to prevent anyone ■ from aspiring to any position. The public has a right, however, to know something about the standing of the candidates for public office, politically and otherwise. It has been the custom heretofore ' for the member of Congress to consult the wishes of the people before ap pointments are made and to be guided largely by public sentiment thus as certained. Hon. David J. Lewis’ great success , in public life is due in large degree to t the fact that he has studied the wishes as well as needs of the people and act . ed in accord with his conclusions, and we do not think he will now deviate from that good habit. The selection of a man to be Post- L Master in itself is a very small mat ter, but it is often followed by great dissatisfaction, as was the case in Cumberland some years ago. i There is no doubt but that appoint ment had much to do with the defeat ■ of the republican nominee for.Con . gress, though the appointee is a com , petent man, possessed of “great cour age”—a quality on which “ Verbum S. Sapienti ” laid much stress in a prior “amble.” : And now, “ Verbum Sat 5.,” since i you have recently shown a relish for stories, I take immense pleasure in . referring you tb one which you may ■ read with profit, if not with pleasure. It is not “a continued story,” for ; its title is “The Prog and the Ox,” or vice versa. i It was written by one Aesop, who • did not travel “extensively;” never theless, he wrote some short stories, : easy to understand and containing much food for thought. It may be found in McGuffey’s First . Reader. Read it and remember the moral. And now, dear “V. S. Sap.,” for the present I bid you a fond adieu. Euephantus Uquo Autior Est. P. S.—l sincerely thank the Jour nai, for courtesies extended to me and patience borne with “V. S. S.” F,. U. A. E. 8.-B. Personae John Raley, of Bloomington, former . ly of the Piedmont (W.

Roy Blackburn, a former member of the B’rostburg team, will play in the Danville team of the Virginia League next season, and is already in training for his work. „ Death of a Priest. Rev. Dennis Micha;! McCormick, pastor of St. Joseph’s Catholic Church, Baltimore, died Sunday morning, 16th inst., at the home of his mother, in Washington, D. C., aged 39 years. He was afflicted with inflammatory rheumatism, and exposure to coldfour weeks before at his father’s funeral brought on the final attack. After his ordination in 1898 he.was assigned to ; duty in St. Michael’s Church, this place, as assistant to the late Rev. S. J. Clarke, and remained here two years—a period all too brief for the many friends he made here, especially among the young. His love of out-door sports and exercise made him “one of the boys,” and it is said that as a first baseman in baseball he was an artist. He served several churches after leaving here and was popular in all. His mother, two sisters and two brothers, all of Washington, D. C., are bereaved. ==■ Scientific Tailoring makes it possible to sell The Cloth craft Blue Serge Special No. 5130, at sls. i OTTO HOiflNG & SONS j The Original One-Price Clothiers Public Opinion.

His little family had grown to three —in his own words, “a healthy, pretty, 9-pound daughter had come into two lives already happy to make life trebly worth living.” Married about 12. years ago, the little one is the first to come to Mr. and Mrs. Hesse, and born in the com pany mansion, north of town, built nearly 50 years ago, she is the first who will be able to claim that edifice as her birth-place.
