TOWN HAPPENINGS

J0It,istOUn ReiieJ' .MOUemeHtS.-At
the weekly meeting of the Ministerial
Association Monday, Rev. j.. r. Mark
wood presiding and Rev. DR.. Geo. V.
Leech, secretary. the great calamity at
JohnstOwn, Pa. was considered, and
after preamble reciting in substance
the foregoing, it was resolved
|. That the immense calamity which all
wise Providence has not forbidden should
overwhelm the city of Johnstown, Pa. and
its connecting villages, sweeping without
warning thousands of their people into
eternity and plunging their entire remaining
population into the deepest sorrow and most
wretched want, calls for and receives our most
profound sympathes. 1t also demands
measures for Immediate relief. In these
measures we feel that the people of our city
should be given an opportunity to join.
,. Therefore we, pastors of churches here,
do hereby request the editor of the FROST
BURG MINING JOURNAL, Mr.. j. B. Oder. to
open subscription lists Immediately at con
venient places for this purpose. Also, that
he select suitable gentlemen 10 canvass the
city for such offerings as our citizens may
make.
of the city be requested to ask a special
offering from their congregations for the re-
lief contemplated, by or on Sunday, June l6,
if practicable.
l. That Mr.. Oder be and he is hereby re
quested to act as treasurer of the fund and
custodian of any other offerings that may be
made, and that he also transmit the same to
the proper authorities at JOhnstown for dis
tribution
The above paper was signed by Rev's
l.. r. MarkwOod, Geo V. Leeeh. A. C..
Haverstick, X. W. Conradi, b. Harris,
James Miller, William Haddock, A. q.
Gekeler and James w. Lavatt.
The matter was thus subsequently
presented to Rev. ID. G.. DeWulf,
pastor of st. Michael's church, who
readily endorsed the movement in the
following supplementary note:
heartily concur in the above, and special
collection will be taken up ON Whitsunday
for that purpose ID. &. DEWULF.
Pastor Of ST. Michaels Church
In accordance with the action thus
taken certain repositories and can
vassers were appointed, but the move
ment was interrupted by an announce
ment by the Mayor early Tuesday
morning that public meeting would
be held in Moat's Opera House on the
same day to devise IL scheme of relief.
The Ministerial Association, not de-
string to cross plans with others hav-
ing the same good aim Ill view, sus-
pended operations under their call to
await the result of the meeting.
At 1870 p. m. Mayor Thomas called
to order a rather small collection OF
citizens. Motions in each case calling
l.. NJ. Gorsuch to the chair. and
DaviSson Armst oug to act as secretary
were adopted.
On motion of Owen Hitchins, one of
the c!ergymen was requested to state

IT is a singular fact that of the sew
eral so-called Labor papers" in the
county. not one gave its readers an
idea of what message 7. b. Mcclure
brought to the unconverted in this
region.
1t remained for this great labor pa
per to give complete, though brief
abstract of his address. else those who
did not hear him would have been left
cropping in Cimmercan darkness con
ccrning the occasion and object of his
visit here.
1t is true that Mr.. McGuire corrobo-
rated the JoURNAL'S statements in ma
ny particulars directly or inferentially.
He saw along Gergc's Creek vale
of content :" indeed, he described in
the succession of towns a veritable
valley of the blest.' and in the hun
dreds of happy homes a type of Area
dia more populous than that province
which made the heart of Peloponnesus
famous wherever happiness is pub
lishcd as the desire of mankind.
He urged Organization" only upon
the very poor plea that "others" are
aligning themselves against corporate
combinations, and SO on.
At the same time. while admitting
that workingmen here had nothing to
complain of, he forgot to state that
our organization of companies is eX
ceptional that our corporate combine
stands for the producers, whether land
owners or miners. He forgot to ad-
wise our people that our protectorate
should be exempted from organized
opposition in the rear. He forgot to
discourage legislation for ventilation,
ETC., in IA region where miners had
nothing to complain Of
But with all his forgetfulness Mr..
Mcclure said very many things which
do not appear to cOmport with Noble
Order interpretations of X. of l.. eth
les i'll this region.
Perhaps this accounts for the mea
gre notices i'll the organs of his meet
ings and especially of the nature Of
his addresses, which evidently did not
suit the taste and meet the wishes of
the fiery, untamed spirits of the region
who are in the Noble Order for what
ever is in Organization" including
politics.

Danger Acerted d--John Patterson
and b. F, Myers, Of Moscow, discover
ed a landslide on the Cumberland and

tance below that place Saturday even
ing, 18th ult. Knowing that II special
train was coming south shortly, they
alarmed other neghbors and after two
hours hard work had the track ready

their timely discovery and hard work,
serious damage and loss of life would
have resulted. 1.-The Cumberland and

SOME DIFFERENCEs.-The Cumber-
land Ne,os says of the efforts there to
raise money and supplies for the Johns
town sufferers
The total amount realized, however, was
little over 81 100 What is left after bills are
paid will be placed at the disposal of the
Johnstown authorities. Gener-
Gus contributions of supplies were received
from Homecoming and Mt Savage, and for
warded to JOhnStown along with other art-
cles from tb is city yesterday afternoon at 3;35
O'clock
In Eros tburg there were no "bills to
pay" those who worked contributed
it, and a number did this and added
money besides.
Frostburg did not merge its offer
ings in Cumberland's contributions
and thus lose credit for its work and
money.
lfLonaconing and Mt. Savage are for
Cumberland first and themselves next,
Frostburg takes the other tack and
under all circumstances stands by
home first if necessary by home last,
and, if still pressed, by home all the
time.

The Old era Ueydrd The attention
drawn to affairs in Alegany cemetery
last week has re-awakcncd interest in
the sad condition of the graveyard
on the hill" and on Monday evening
next +. G.. Bcall aud other citizens will
lay the matter before the Mayor and
Council. 1t is understood that for the
most part the graveyard belongs to
the town and therefore under corpOr.
ate control. If this be the ease, and
we do not doubt it, it is incumbent
upon the corporate authorities to take
proper care of the grounds. FIRST of
all, the lot should be substantially en-
closed. This alone would simplify the
situation very considerably, as those
having friends inferred there could
then improve the burial lots with some
assurance of protection. The need of
making proper provision for enclosing
these grounds is emphasized by the
fact that, as neglected public property,
IN sight of popular picnic ground,
and resort for strangers visiting
points OF interest, its prescn; condition
is disgrace to the town. The author
ities should move to wipe it out, and
do so quickly.
Denidi-A local article in last
weeks JOURNAL concerning a case of
deSecration in Allegany cemetery is
construed by p. n. Jenkins as an i'm
peachment of his good reputation as
grave digger. He says that the error
complained of should have been charg
ed to the man who laid off and dug
the grave trenched upon that it was
dug diagonally with the usual 'lay"
of graves; that he struck small por.
ton only of the old cogin and corpse,
and save few pieces of board all was
carefully replaced and recovered.
His story is corroborated by Robert
Welsh, Frank Wagus and Theophilus
Sperry.
AS TO the general condition of the
cemetery W. II. Evans contends that
it is good that whatever cause there
is for complaint comes usually from
the perversity of lot-holders or from
unavoidable occurrences.

SOMEBODY writing from Frostburg

SOMEBODY writing from Frostburg
to the Pittsburg Chronicle, says:
Tom Mcclure, Of New York and General
Lecturer of the X. of L., addressed a small
audience of workingmen here last Tuesday
evening, there being small number Of ladies
present. He delivered an excellent address.
He knew what he was talking about when
he said the workin, people of this region
were peculiarly blessed and happy and had
nothing to complain of. How does this strike
the perpetual agitators of mining legislation
in this region?
This writer is doubtless a miner, and
we commend his compliment to Mr..
Mcclure and his inquiry to the dis
tinguished consideration of the "sin-
gle-wrapper" subscribers of the Balti-
more Critic who reputedly live in this

THE destruction of the canal has
doubtless hastened the study of one of
the profoundest puzzles in Maryland
politics. As a waterway its days are
probably numbered, and the CARRYING
corporations will now struggle over
the possession of its corpus. This will
force the people to choice of evils,
perhaps.
In this event this paper expects, as
heretofore, to be compelled by its
known devotion to Georges Creek to
oppose the scheme which contemplates
its ownership by West Virginia inter
ests, now formidable rivals of our own.
The canal is II Maryland institution,
built and run by Maryland money, and
must not now be diverted to the injury.
perhaps destruction of a single Mary
land industry.

Hon. LLOYD LOWNDES, of Cumber-
land, was elected president of the
Union mining company last Monday.
His numerous friends and the people
generally are proud of his accession to
the executive chair of one of Allega-
ny'S greatest enterprises.
Besides, the man who will feed hun
dreds of stranded travellers, and make
them feel at home among strangers, as
we understand he did during the flood,
deserves the honOrs. And such libe-
raj hands as his are a good depository
for the accruing emoluments.
SOMEBODY circulated a report in
Cumberland that $500 had been raised
in Frostburg for the Johnstown suf-
ferers." Then up came Il telephone
message to Mr.. Gorsuch saying g-''hold
on to that money, and send it here and
We'll put it with our pile and send it
altogether to Johnstown."
A horse laugh ran round the town
as that suggestion was circulated.
When Cumberland forgcts to let
both paws know what the other is not
giving, the floods thereafter will re
verse motion" and come up the Po-
tOmac.
LONGER and more general notice of
the meeting in Moat's Opera House
Tuesday evening would have drawn
doubtless a larger crowd.
At any rate, it is to be said to the
great honor of those present that by
attending they not only evinced inter
est in the object, but demonstrated it
by a remarkably strong offering.
The sum of $2l3 cash from an audi
ence of that size, collected in a few
minutes, was creditable to every man
in it, poor and rich.
There are outgivings of human ma
ture sometimes that make us proud of
our species.
That was one of the times.
