The resurrection of the seventeen year To-
custs can be seen in this vicinity by number
of holes in the ground through which they
have emerged, principally under apple trees.
The indications are that the crop will be large.
The chickens and the little English sparrow,
upon the latter of which vengeance has been
sworn, are kept very busy eating or destroying
the pupa as fast as they emerge from their
holes If the little sparrow, which is con-
s;dered a pest, will partially succeed in the
destruction of the locusts as they emerge from
their holes, it will have chance to redeem
its reputation to some extent.
On last Friday, Saturday and Monday nights
we had an amusing entertainment on the
corner of Main and Elgar streets, by two gen
tlemen selling preparation called Foster
Eureka y for curing pains, aches, &c. They
did not profess to cure all the ills that flesh is
heir to, but took all the quarters that were
offered to them. The jokes, music and sing
ing were good, and elected considerable
laughter and applause from the audience.
Some of the new dwellings which were
commenced early in the spring are nearing
comnletion. Mr.. James Smith, on Main
street. has the first story of his new dwelling
and store house up, and the masons have
commenced the brick work. Mr.. Geo. L.
BUCKEYES new brick dwelling, on Main street
nearly opposite the NJ p. church, is progress
sing yapidly. The brick work will be finished
in few days. Ogle & Philips, mason Jos.
Wolf, architect and contractor.
A veteran stone mason and bricklayer, Mr..
William w. Ogle, formerly of Frederick co. J.
Int for the last seventeen years resident OF
this town, has been engaged in business about
fifty years. He has contracted and built an
immense number of houses, barns, and other
buildings, in Frederick and Carroll counties,
and some on the Eastern Shore of Maryland.
He is still active and heartily, and can do
full days work, besides experimenting the
men in his employ.

Last Tuesday afternoon fire was discovered
on the roof of VIM. III. Shower Bro. s ma
chine shop. An alarm was given, and in a
few minutes the bucket brigade was out in
force, ladders we're run up, and by the time
that few Of the most active and courageous
had gained footing on the roof, the water line
was formed and water was at their command,
with which, by judicious use, they very soon
arrested the progress OF the flames. Ii is
fortunate that so timely discovery was made,
for with a few minutes more start the hre
would have been beyond control and the
whole west end of town at the mercy OF the
flames. A hole about six by ten feet was
burned in the roof. The moulders were
busy making a run when the alarm was made;
and it is supposed that the fire originated
from spark from the engine or foundry; but
il is only matter of conjecture, as the wind
was blowing from the east, while the engine
and foundry are on the west side of the ma
chine shop.
At an election for pastor of the Lutheran
Church of the Manchester charge, held on
the 10th inst, Rev. G. NJ. Eyster, of Seven
Valley. Pa, received a unanimous vote at
Manchester and Lineboro' and majority at
Bachmans Valley; and at joint meeting OF
the consistories, held on last "Wednesday
evening in Manchester, Rev. Eyster was de-
clared elected, and call was extended.
Mr.. Geo. w. Shaffer, of Frederick, Md, is
visiting friends in town.
Emanuel Trout came home from Dallas
town, Pa, about two weeks ago sick, and
died last Monday of typhoid fever.
Ascension Day was observed as holiday
by all except store and saloon keepers. Two
picked mines engaged III game OF base ball.
the game was quite spirited and interesting
and both parties played with their utmost
energy. except one young man, who was per-
fectlY satisfied to give his entire moral sup
port, but preferred holding his physical sup
mort in reserve. But fortune smiled on him
once in the course of the game-a right fielder
was sent into his hands and he sent the ball
quickly to the first base, making double
play. whereupon he was declared redeemed.

On Saturday last the Westminster Base
Ball Club played its first game for 1885, with
the Woodberry Club, and won its first victory
by a score of to 2. The prospects for sue
cess were not bright when the game began,
as Switzer, the pitcher engaged for the season,
had not arrived; besides which the nine had
other apparently weak points, and the visitors,
on the other hand, had a good professional
pitcher, and were noted for their batting.
Driscoll, however, who pitched for the West
minister's, puzzled the heavy hitters from
Woodberry and astonished every one else by
his remarkable speed and heavy curves. 1t
was very much of pitchers game, although
both sides fielded admirably, the Westmin-
sters with but one error. Perhaps the pref
test play of the game was Zepp's fine long
running catch and double play in the fourth
inning. Peregoy' s play in centre field for the
visitors, the Unfolding of Miller, Bankert and
CIabaugh, the work of Nicholas behind the
bat, and Miller's batting were the other main
points of the game. The visiting pitch and
catch worked ike machine. Both sides
tried to cool the heated air by flaming the
wind q Sd strikes being scored. The score
is as follows:

Brady,s TunneI-SkiII of a Westminster
Engineer.

Rrady's Tunnel on the Baltimore Ohio
railroads. short line to the West, was com
pleted and opened to travel last Friday. The
Pittsburg, Pa, Commercial Gazette says 1t Is
an historic hole and is located in Washington
comfy in that state. 1t is portion of the
celebrated Hempfeld road projected from
Wheeling to Greensburg, Pa. Work was be-
gun and suspended several times. The road
bed was partly finished and used, and IN 1913
the work of driving the tunnel was begun.
Operations were suspended the same year;
commenced again in 1880 and again suspend
ed. In 1884, McCabe Brothers, OF Baltimore,
then took the contract and pushed the work to
completion.
The tunnel is l ,720 feet in length or about
one-third of mile, with a high and very dry
roof and wide enough for at least two tracks.
II is arched for 100 feet at the portals, while
the timbering supporting the sides and ROOT
Is the most complete in the country. The
last cost of the tunnel is $50, 900, while fully
that much money if not more has been ex-
pended in prior operations. -
The Commercial Gazette, in speaking OF the
engineering of the work, says:
In 1878 Colonel S. r. Johnston was the en-
giueer in charge of the work, with Mr.. }. A.
Hunter as resident engineer. When work was
begun the last time Colonel T. ID. IRWIN, one
of the most distinguished civil engineers IN
the country, was placed in charge, with Mr..
P. r. Harrison as resident engineer. These
gentlemen also had charge of the construction
Of the Ohio & Baltimore Short Line, and di-
rected the extensive operations incidentto the
partial construction of that line.
