| LOCAL AND GENERAL J
George P. Hager, of Hamilton, Md.,
writes to The Spirit as follows: “En
closed find $1.25 for subscription to
The Spirit. I like it.”
Ruth, young daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Lawrence Willison, East Main
street, has been ill with diphtheria
during the past week.
Wm. H. Koch, Sr., of Reading, Pa.,
has The Spirit’s thanks for two cash
subscriptions to this paper—one for
himself and one for Issac Bear, also
of Reading.
Mrs. James Morris, of Bowery
street, stepped on a nail one day last
week, and it entered her foot. She
has hah a very sore foot since, as a
result of the accident.
Haidee W. Frost, of Kansas City,
Mo., sends best wishes for The Spirit’s
success, and as a guarantee of good
faith, encloses money order to pay
for a year’s subscription.
Mrs. Ruth Leatham, Mrs. Celia
Bond and Mrs. Charles Leatham, re
turned from an automobile trip to
Pittsburg, last week. Mrs. Ruth
Leatham’s son William was chauffeur.
Richard Laßue, who resides a few
miles west of Frostburg, called at The
Spirit office on Monday to square an
account that he owed the old Mining
Journal, also to arrange for a sub
scription to The Spirit.
The Spirit has on file two interest
ing communications on public ques
tions that it is unable to find room for
in this issue, but may give them space
next week. They were not received
in time for publication in this week’s
paper.
Frostburg has a new paper, The
Frostburg Spirit, successor to The
Frostburg Mining Journal, of which
P. L. Livengood is the editor. The
Spirit is a live, up-to-date journal, and
we wish it every success.—Piedmont
Herald.
Advertisers will please bear in mind
that copy for changes in advertise
ments should by all means be in the
printers’ hands not later than 3:00
o’clock p. m., Tuesdays. In fact most
of it should be at the print shop a
day earlier.
Mrs. Sophia Blocher, who resides
2% miles west of Frostburg, on the
Pike, called at The Spirit office on
Monday and left an order for sale
bills. She will have a public sale at
her home next Monday, Oct. 6th, at 2
o’clock p. m.
Geo. McKenzie, a farmer residing a
half-mile south of the National Pike,
and four miles west of Frostburg, had
sale bills printed at The Spirit print
ery, Tuesday, for a sale which he will
have on Wednesday, Oct. Bth. Live
stock, implements and other property
will be sold.
Joseph Rodda, of Chicago, 111., ar
rived here Sunday and will spend
some time among Frostburg relatives.
His wife has been visiting her father,
James Grose, on Spring street, for
two months, during which time she
gave birth to a son. The happy family
will return home about the middle of
October.
The editor is under obligation to the
r anagement of the Frostburg Opera
louse for an invitation to attend all
of the many vr.t'llent .I 1 ...to be-,
seen there night after night, without
money and without price. No such
courtesy as that is due this paper or
any other, and that causes the editor
to appriciate it all the more.
Gilead Broadwater, a prominent
Grantsville merchant, was a* business
caller at The Spirit office, Tuesday,
when he left a nice order for printed
stationery. Mr. Broadwater was one
of the editor’s schoolmates in the
early “Seventies,” at Grantsville, Md.,
and the good old boys of those good
old days are always very welcome vis
itors at The Spirit printery.
Cashier Albert Reitz, of the First
National Bank of Salisbury, Pa.,
writes to have that reliable and pros
perous banking institution placed on
The Spirit’s subscription list. The
Spirit is getting a goodly number of
subscribers from across the Mason &
Dixon line, and among them are many
who visit Frostburg often and do con
siderable of their shopping here.
Mrs. Charlotte Meager and daugh
ter, Miss Lottie, Mr. and Mrs. Howard
Meager and Mr. and Mrs. Connor, the
parents of Mrs. Howard Meager, all
of Salisbury, Pa., motored over in
Mrs. Meager’s car, Sunday morning,
and attended the morning service at
First M. E. Church of this place.
They returned home in the afternoon
after meeting several friends here.
Mr. and Mrs. J. B. Algire, of St.
Michael, Pa., son-in-law and daughter
of Editor and Mrs. P. L. Livengood,
left here on Monday afternoon for
their home, going via Cumberland,
Md., and Altoona, Pa. Mrs. Algire
was the guest of her parents during
the past six weeks, and her husband
arrived here last Friday. They are
both very favorably impressed with
Frostburg,
Olin Beall, the obliging cashier of
the First National Bank of Frostburg,
recently paid a year’s subscription to
this paper for his brother Horace, of
Olive Hill, Ky. And now comes his
brother with a check for another year,
and states in his letter that he is well
pleased with the paper. There is
more joy in a print shop over a sub
scription paid for two years than there
is over two subscriptions not paid for
one year. And that’s no dream.
W. T. Buchanan, one of the whitest
men that ever lived, sends greetings
and best wishes tp the editor and
family from Westminster, Md., and
encloses check for $1.50 to apply on
subscription to The Spirit. Mr. Bu
chanan lived at Salisbury, Pa., some
years ago, where he was superintend
ent of the American Analine and Dye
Works. At present he is engaged in
the tanning business at Westminster,
Md., and is doing a lucrative business.
More power to him, and kindest re
gards to him and the other members
of his household.
Unparalleled in the world for photo
graphic beauty, human interest, dra
matic power and spectacular grandeur
is George Kleine’s production of the
Cines photo-drama “Quo Vadis,”
which is to be the attraction at the
Frostburg Opera House, Monday and
Tuesday, Oct. 13th and 14th. Al
though this is a strong statement to
make, it is fully verified by the re
markable runs this attraction has had
in the Astor Theatre, New York City,
the Garrick at Philadelphia, McVick
er’s in Chicago, Tremont Theatre in
Boston, and a host of other cities un
der the most adverse circumstances,
and in summertime, too, when every
other dramatic form of entertainment
has failed to attract the public into
theatres. This fact alone is sufficient
substantiation of almost any asser
tion that may be made about this
truly wonderful photo-drama.
Mr. and Mrs. Chas. L. Bolden, of
Finzel, Garrett county, were transact
ing business in Frostburg, Tuesday.
While in town Mrs. Boldan called at
The Spirit office and purchased a
Frostburg souvenir book which she
had seen advertised in a sample copy
of this paper, last week. This proves
that it pays to advertise. Further
more, Mrs. Bolden subscribed and
paid for the paper for a year, having
read two sample copies, which pro
duced a desire for more of them.
Presbyterian Church.
Following is the order of services
for next Sunday: Sermon at 11
o’clock a. m. on “The Sunday School
Work of the Year,” by the pastor.
Sunday school at 2:30 p. m. Chris
tian Endeavor, 6:45 p. m. Instead of
preaching service at 7:30 p. m., the
Sunday school will render a program
in recognition of Rally Day. Every

Rev. Dr. J. N. Beaei,, Paster.
Worth Remembering.
Dr. J. B. Murphy, who cared for
Roosevelt when he was shot, has just
returned from the meeting of the In
ternational Medical Congress.J He
said it was demonstrated before that
body that if a scarlet fever patient is
rubbed every day with eucalyptus oil,
there is no danger of anyone catching
the disease from the patient.
Policeman Hanna Out of Hospital.
Tally Hanna, the biggest man on the
Frostburg police force, went to the
Western Maryland Hospital, Cumber
land, on Wednesday of last week, to
take treatment for an ailment of long
standing which has been causing him
much suffering. He returned home
on Tuesday, somewhat relieved, but
may return to the hospital later for an
operation.
Operated on for Hernia.
Oliver B. Wittig was successfully
operated on for hernia, at the Western
Maryland Hospital, Cumberland, last
Thursday. His condition since the
operation is excellent, and the indica
tions are that he will be able to return
home in about two weeks, which is
news that his many friends will re
ceive with much gratification.
Resolutions Against Sunday
Baseball.
At a special session of The Frost
burg Ministerial Association, yester
day, that organization passed the fol
lowing resolution:
“Resolved, that the Frostburg Min
isterial Association in special session
called for the purpose of considering
certain flagrant violations of law by
Sabbath descration on the part of
baseball players and their managers
in Allegany county, do hereby express
our hearty appreciation of the action
taken by the Ministerial Union of
Cumberland, looking to the abate
ment of the great evil; and that we
give our unqualified endorsement to
the protest made by the Cumberland
clergy against such (Sabbath desecra
tion'and violations oi law; and also
that we do unanimously pledge our
support and best endeavors to the en
forcement of the law against such
further practice in Allegany county;
and we call upon the District Attor
ney to do his sworn duty as a county
official in an effort to suppress the
same.”
The resolution was signed by the
following named ministers: J. N.
Beall, F. H. Crissman, F. M. C. Bedell,
G. E. Metger, L. George, D. Davies,
P. G. Saffran, J. C. Walker, W. S.
Nicholson and D. H. Martin.
Fruitless Search for a Dog.
Early on Monday morning, John J.
Livengood, the well known veteran
blacksmith of Salisbury, Pa., arrived
in this city for the purpose of locating
a finely bred dog that was “swiped”
from his stable not long ago. He
thought he had a clue that would lead
to the prompt recovery of the missing
canine, but all effort to recover the
animal was in vain.
Some time ago two men from Mid
lothian were in Salisbury, and they
were seen leaving the town with Mr.
Livengood’s dog. The names of the
men were learned at a livery stable
where they had stopped with a horse
and buggy, and Constable George
Cook, of this city, accompanied Mr.
Livengood to Midlothian to assist in
recovering the dog. Only one man
that Mr. Livengood and Constable
Cook were looking for could be found,
but no trace could be found of the
other man and the dog.
It may be that the dog has been
captured and swallowed by the mon
ster blacksnake recently seen near
Midlothian, a photograph of which
appears on the first page of this paper.
The missing man may also have met
a similar fate.
Had uncle John found his dog in
possession of the men he sought, the
Lord only knows what he might have
done to that fellow, for he is a resolute
old “vet” and fears no man, although
he is 76 years old. He is still a good
horse-shoer and works at his trade
yet, in spite of his three score years
and sixteen. Just now, however, he
wovld rather pulverize the thief or
thieves who stole his dog than shoe
horses.
The editor’s children were rather
glad of it that some one over this way
was blamed for stealing uncle John’s
dog, as that brought him to Frostburg,
and while here the editor and family
had the pleasure of entertaining him
at dinner. The children, all the chil
dren who know uncle John Livengood,
are passionately fond of him, as fond
of him as he is of children, dogs and
horses, and that’s saying a great deal,
as all of The Spirit’s readers in Salis
bury can vouch for.
To say the least, it’s a doggoned
mean trick to steal a good dog from a
fellow, but a homeless canine has
taken up his abode at the editor’s
house that the family would like very
much to have stolen, and the brute is
a real good one at that,
Otto Hohiag, Sr., Undergoes
Surgical Operation.
Otto Hohing, Sr., a well known ex
sheriff of this county and prominent
Frostburg merchant, was operated on
at the Western Maryland Hospital, in
Cumberland, on Monday, for kidney
trouble.
The operation was of a serious na
ture, but was very successful, and the
patient is getting along extraordinarily
well and bids fair to recover fully in
a very short time. A strong and vig
orous constitution is much in Mr.
Hohing’s favor, and there is scarcely
any doubt that he will soon be enjoy
ing the best of health.
