j LOCAL AND GENERAL j I Miss Sophia Weinberg, of New York, is this week the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Isaac Fine, her uncle and aunt, at their home on East Main street. County Clerk-elect Lloyd E. Shaffer, of Cumberland, was in town last night receiving congratulations from his numerous Frostburg friends on his handsome victory at the polls on Tuesday. Owing to a glut of work in The Spirit’s job department this week, to say nothing of the editor being some what indisposed, it was impossible to I get a te.nth portion of the local news in this week’s paper that should be in it. Perry Weimer recently returned from a visit with his brother-in-law, Casper Wahl, and other old-time friends at Salisbury, Pa. It was Mr. Weimer’s first visit to Salisbury in many years, and he was amazed at the changes wrought by time during the years of his absence from that town and vicinity. James Harding of Salisbury, Pa., and John i.. Kerecht, of West Salis bury, were both callers at The Spirit office this week. Both report pros perity in their respective communities, and the proposed enlargement of the traction engine works, near Salis bury, promises to jput new life into that entire locality. Moses Jandorf, a former Frostburg er now residing in New York City, writes that he failed to get last week’s Spirit and feels lost without it. He requests a copy of last week’s issue, encloses his check for SI.SO and sends his best wishes with remittance for the paper’s success, all of which is duly appreciated at this end of the line, and the missing number goes forward today. Col. Thomas G. Dillon, Frostburg’s great baseball enthusiast, has The Spirit’s thanks for a cash-in-advance yearly subscription for John B. Salb, of Washington, D. C. Mr. Salb is a son in-law of Col. Dillon, and during the season just closed was one of the star players in the Frostburg baseball team, the invincible organization that broke the poor old Cumberland team’s heart by winning the pennant which that aggregation of “stiffs” was fool ish enough to think it could win. Wm. A. Gunter, a student at Dick inson College Law School, Carlisle, Pa., arrived here on Monday to en joy a short visit with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. R. Gunter, of Hotel Gladstone, before casting- his first vote and returning to school on Tuesday morning. Wm. A' is now putting in his second year at Dickinson, and he is reported to be making fine progress, as are also James Spitznas and James Willison, two other well-known Frost burg young men, the one a son of Mr. and Mrs. Albert Spitznas, the other of Mr. and Mrs. Geo. S Willison. Maryland Week will be observed at the Fifth Regiment Armory in Balti more, November 18 to 22, when the State Horticultural Society and its af filiated bodies will hold their annual meetings and exhibit the products of the farm. There will be many fea tures of the exhibition that will make it worth while for the farmer to see. There will also be a social side, for the visiting farmers will be guests of the Baltimore Board of Trade at a luncheon, an automobile tour of the city and a boat ride around the har bor. Maryland Week is largely edu cational, with exhibits from the ex perimental station of the Maryland Agricultural College, and with speak ' ers of national importance. Every man who can possibly spare the time should go. Scientific farming means larger and better crops, and the re sults of scientifici farming is shown during Maryland Week. A SIMPLE PROBLEM.' The Sectiorl Boss Easily Got the Tool House In the Right Spot. About ten years before the Eastern railroad was leased by the Boston and Maine that portion of the old road be tween Swampscott and Salem was in charge of Section Foreman Timothy Moynahan. His strongest point was in doing just as lie was told and doing that with energy and accuracy. So when he was notified from Beverly by Road master Stevens that the section lengths were to be changed and that he was to move his tool house from the westerly end of Salem yard to halfway between mileposts 15 and 16 he started out with the determination to mov the house halfway, no more, no less. To get this halfway point he sta tioned one of his men at milepost 15 and another at milepost 16, and at a signal they started to walk toward each other until they met, and to a point opposite their meeting place the shanty was moved. This method of getting the correct distance did not quite suit Moynahan, especially when he remembered that one of the walk ers w r as taller than the other and the other tripped several times on the way down. He carried this in his mind for near ly a year, when he met the engineers measuring through for signals and asked them to tell him as they meas ured if his house was just halfway or not. When the measurement was taken, the house was found to be sixty feet nearer milepost 16 than 15, and Moy nahan, on being told, remarked that he thought he could fix things just right. Later in the year the engineer met Moynahan in Salem and asked him if his tool house was now halfway be tween the mile posts. “It is,” he replied. “It’s just half way.” “Did you have much trouble moving it?” “No trouble at all. I just let it stay as it was and moved the milepost.” PARABISEJLATS. The Three Star Lodgers Have a Reconciliation. BUT ROW STARTS AGAIN.

[Copyright, 1913, by Associated Literary Press.] m HAS dot you or somepody % X else, Mr. Sprocket?” queried wr the german grocer as the janitor of Paradise Flats lounged into the store the other even ing. “Yes, it’s me.” “Und you vhas alive?” “Just about.” “Vhas it more troubles mit your ten ants?” “That’s it. Do I look all broke up?” “Mr. Sprocket, you vhas looking like some man mit his toes in der grave.” “I shouldn’t wonder. There was an hour or so last night when I didn’t know whether I’d be living today or not.” “Did you go most dead mit dot asth ma?” “No, it wasn’t the asthma altogether. In fact, the asthma was as good as left out of it. Those people broke loose again, you see, and the nervous strain on me almost knocked me out.” “Vhat a wicked people, vhat a wick ed world! Und so dere vhas some more rows?” “I told you the other day about the three ladies having a scrap,” replied the janitor as he settled himself down on the head of a barrel. “Well, they went about with their noses in the air for a day or two and then decided to make it up. That’s a woman’s way, you know. They couldn’t visit each other while they were mad, and each one of the three was just dying to see how the others had furnished up their rooms and whether the whold family had to sleep in one bed or not. Mrs. O’Sulli van had the most curiosity, and as she had drawn a diamond ring with a pound of fifty cent tea and wanted to show it off she decided to give in first. Yesterday morning she knocked on the dago’s door, and the dago put her nose out and asked: “ ‘Whata you wanta of me, eh?’ Makes First Overtures. “ ‘Countess, I’ve come to make up wid ye,’ said O’Sulivan. ‘Sayin’ nothin’ of the words in the Bible and the teachin’s of good men that we should dwell together in harmony, I’m will in’ to believe that I was mistaken in ye as a dago. The way ye used yer fingers in me hair, to say nothin’ of the bat on me mouth, proves that ye are MBS. O’SULLIVAN GOT HEE IBISH UP. a perfect lady and entitled to my esteem. Shake me hand, Countess Divito, and let’s be friends.’ “ ‘You no wanta fighta any more?’ asked the countess as she came out into the hall. “ ‘Not another wallop,’ answered O’Sullivan, ‘lt’s rather airly in the mornin’ for a high society call, but if ye’ll overlook it for once I’ll come in and show you the $l5O diamond ring me, Tim handed me from his hind pocket this mornin’ for a birthday pris ent.’ “I heard it all,” said the janitor, "and the countess let her in and met her half way. I thought it would be a good thing for me and McMurphy and a bad thing for the darky, but it turned out tiptop all around. When two women get to making up a quarrel they in clude all creation, and it wasn’t over half an hour before the two came out with their arms around each other and started up to see the barber’s wife.” “Py golly, but I like dot!” exclaimed the grocer. “Vhen I was mad at some mans, und he come around next day I vhas all oafer her. If nobody vhas mad, den you see how happy we all vhas.” “That’s it, Mr. Wasserman. If you only had the asthma you’d make a good flathouse janitor. Yes, they went up, and the darky heard them coming and was ready for them with an old chair leg. She was spitting on her hands for a good grip when Mrs. O’Sullivan told her that the quarrel was all made up and the dove of peace had come there to hatch her brood. She’d been thumped pretty hard, and she was rather offish, but she toed the mark after awhile, and there was kissing and hugging all around. An hour later O'Sullivan gave a morning tea. which Let not thy mind run on what thou lackest as mcb as on what thou hast already.—Marcus Aurelius. Futile Flattery. “Even with flattery.” said Mark Twain at a dinner, “you can’t please some men. I remember when I was a reporter in Virginia City there was a doctor I liked —I had camped once on Lake Tahoe with him—and in an obitu ary I decided to give him a card. I wrote, ‘Dr. Sawyer was called in, and under his prompt and skillful treat ment the patient died Monday.’ But Dr. Sawyer somehow wasn’t pleased.” was mostly beer and crackers, and such quietness fell upon the house that I began to feel lonesome. About 1 o’clock in the afternoon the three got dressed to go out in company, and of course each one put on her best duds to make the other jealous. You know what women are, Mr. Wasserman?” “Vhell, maype! I lif mit my old wo mans for oafer dwenty year.” Out For an Airing. “Of course. They praised each oth er’s hats and dresses as they stood in the hail, but it was ail hypocrisy, you know. The countess was perhaps the best dressed, though it was a pretty even thing all over. They sailed away like three graces, and I kicked the goat out of the halls, run the dogs on to the street and heaved the carts in the back yard. For two hours I had a house to be proud of, and I had made up my mind to tell McMurphy to raise the rent when the ladies returned. They had treated each other to clam broth, ice cream and candy and had come back in a taxi to end up in a swagger way. When the taxi came dashing up there was a sensation on that block, and fifty other women turned pale as they looked out of their windows.” “Vhas some rubber tires on der wheels of dot taxi?" asked the grocer as he seemed to call up a picture in his mind’s eye. “Aye, there was, Mr. Wasserman,” replied the janitor. “Yes. there was rubber tires on every wheel—none missing—and the choffer was in uni form. For a minute or two I felt so proud that I was determined to ask McMurphy to raise my salary to S2O a month and fuel jhrowed in; but, alas, it was the taxi that was our undoing.” “Did she broke down?” “Not at all. The ladies didn’t have money enough to settle the fare, you see, or they wanted to beat each other. They could scrape only 45 cents to gether, while the fare was a dollar and a half, and the choffer wasn’t slow in giving them his opinion of bilks. It wasn’t two minutes before the whole neighborhood was on to the racket, and then there was fun. At first the three women hung together as against the choffer, but pretty <soon Mrs. O’Sulli van got/her Irish up and turned on the othepr with: "“'‘Be me sowl, but I might have knowed it! What but this should hap pen to a discindant of the O’Shanes who goes out with a dago and a nay gur!’ Hostilities About to Begin. “ ‘Who you calla dago?’ yelled the countess. “ ‘And who’s a naygur?’ shouted Mrs. Torrington. “Then a great crowd gathered around, hoping to see a scrap, and when I tell you, Mr. Wasserman, that the reputation of McMurphy’s flats for chick and gentility suffered a set back that they’ll not get over for years I speak the word with aching heart. To satisfy the choffer and avoid a row on the street, Mrs. O’Sullivan handed over that tea store, diamond and sailed into the house as grand as a queen, and when the others had followed her I locked the doors on the crowd.” “Und so all vhas peace once more?” queried the grocer with a sigh of re lief. “Not on your life, old man! You know what a prelude is, don’t you?” “I pelief I do, but I don’t carry some in stock. She vhas too perishable.” Just a Curtain Raiser. “Just so. Well, that little affair on the sidewalk was a prelude, a pro logue, a curtain raiser. It didn’t take the O’Sullivan over seven minutes to get back into her fighting togs, and she made a break for upstairs at dime. The dago and the colored woman were ready for her and also for each other, and the way they did sail in and break down doors and knock off plaster gave me palpitation of the heart and thoughts of graveyards. I limped off and let them have it out. and the three of them are In bed and will be for a week to come.” “But maybe dey shall make oop good friends und stay so!” suggested the grocer. “Maybe; but you can’t expect it, Mr. Wasserman. It ain’t in what they call nature, you see. It’s Ireland agin Italy and Africa, and ftaly and Africa agin Ireland, and three women agin each other, and if you don’t mind I’ll take a cucumber home for my lunch and get what rest I can for my asthma be fore the menagerie breaks loose again.” His Preference. “You say I’ve got to take more out door exercise, doctor.

Grose, Bailiff, reported fines collected in sum of s6l; from county for use of lock-up, $11.50; meals for county prisoners, $6.40; ‘to tal, $78.90. George Krause, Collector, reported taxes collected in the sum of $109.07; materials, $10.76; David Powell, $7; total, $713.92; interest, $2.63; total, $111.70. On account of Water Fund $1,737.31; balance uncollected, sl, 360.- 11. J. W. Shea, Treasurer, reported re ceipts on account of corporate fund, fines, s6l; Allegany county, $17.90; taxes, $111.70; paving, s7l; sewers, $80; license, $4; Myers & Crump, $30.20; note given Citizens National Bank, $2,500; total, $2,875.84. Expenditures, orders paid, $4,172.50; draft, $2,721.89; overdraft, $4,018.55. On account of Water Fund, cash, $7,770.40; dues re ceived, $1,737.31; total, $9,507.71. Ex penditures, orders paid, $2,806.86; balance on hand, $6,700.85. William Harvey, Towh Engineer, submitted an outline of route, grades and estimate of cost of the Eelt Line, as provided by action of October ses sion. He found: 1. That the line would be about 2 miles in length; 2. That the maximum of grade was 8% percent, and, 3. That the probable cost would be $22,860. A motion was adopted providing for submission of this report to the elec tric Railway Cempany by a committee composed of Mayor A. T. Johnson and Councilman Adam Brown, August Arnold and Henry Fresh. August Arnold, Councilman, of the street committee, reported that a right of way to the Miners Hospital via the Lewis, Williams and Murphy proper ties, could be secured, and William Harvey, Town Engineer, submitted a plan and estimate of cost in the sum of $1,690. Matter referred to consid eration of the Street Committee. A competitive plan for a competing i road from Borden Mine to the Cum berland and Pennsylvania Railroad crossing at the company’s station, via land owned by the Consolidation Coal Co., was exhibited by Councilman Henry Fresh, who, it is claimed, was endowed with the scheme, including outline and estimate, by Clinton Uhl, of the County Road Directorate. This road is blessed by the advantage of being mostly level until it reaches the foot of depot boulevard and beset with the disadvantages of: 1. Avoiding the Miners’ hospital; 2. Continuing a dangerous railroad crossing, and— 3. Terminating in the climb of a> hill that has always been an expensive backset to the town. This enterprise will cost, it was re ported, $2,906.20, or $1,216.20 more than the proposed Miners’ Hospital road. Both would cost the town $4,596.20, a sum big enough to induce the Mayor and Councilmen to offer, as a com promise, to the gentlemen promoters —you build the railroad crossing road, and we will build the Miners’ Hospit al road! A. Charles Stewart, citizen, asked permission to place an electric sign over his business front, No. 4 West Union street, but owing to an ordin ance prohibiting business advertising of this character, action was deferred until the ordinance committee can re port favorably.
