yesterday incorporated the towns of Shaw

court, maintaining that it was unlawful to
! incorporate the two towns as one when

should haze been two petitions showing a
majority from each town in favor of the

The Dust.

The continued hot and dry weather
has made great abundance of dust
on the various thoroughfares of the
town. When taken up by the little
whirlwinds and breeZes 1t drifts into
stores and dwellings soiling everything
it touches, and it touches everything.
There is no greater foe to the merchant
and housekeeper than dust.
Made up of ground stone and pois-
Gus offal which the street catches from
innumerable sources, it is, worse than
all, the greatest enemy to the human
lungs. Besides its incursions upon
this vital portion of the system,
increased laundry work, red eyes and
injured ears are nothing. SO with the
foliage which it ruins and the plants
it destroys. Being an active irritant
and strongly impregnated with potas-
stun, it produces lung trouble in all
To go further into the physical IN
juries it brings about, it irritates the
capillary vessels of the lungs, causes
an active irritation of its pulmonary
vesicles, disturbs the elastic tissue
properties, deposits itself in their in
terlobular spaces, destroys their resil-
iency, and, taken all in all, it is an ag-
gressive, bold, bad foe to good health,
comfort and convenience.
We hope the Water Board will push
forward their great work to com
pletion, so that by next summer we
will have the only specific for dust
plenty of water for sprinkling.

Church Renewed,

The repairs at the English Congre-
gational church comprise the intro
duction of yestibule which takes up
considerable of the former floor space.
This is compensated for, however, by
gallery of almost equal seating ca
pacity across the front, though de-
signed mainly for choir purposes.
The face of the gallery Is beautifully
finished in woodwork and painting,
the latter in modest, harmonious tints.
The pews have been re-painted and
oak grained, the artist putting on
some of his best work. Tho door lead
ing to the new ante-room is also fine
sample of granting. The last named
apartment is afforded in the erection
of a rear building, lSX22 feet, etapart
prayer and business meetings.
Returning to the auditorium, we
find that the ante-room addition has
afforded an opportunity to indent the
rear wall of the church with a pulpit
recess five feet deep, and that this has
been plastered and finished in eXcep-
tonally fine style. An elliptic circle
arches the pulpit, the summit of
which is decorated with a keystone or
nament. Along the edge runs pretty
Plaster of Paris moulding, and around
the concave extends a heavy moulding,
which, terminating at the corners,
makes the facing of the pulpit semi
Corinthian in column and capital.
This was done by Theodore Gunnett,
IL master in his line.
The carpentering was done by Sllas
Duggan, the painting by W. S. Burton.
Swinging green gauze doors lead to
the vestibule, and from this point we
note that Mr.. Burton has re-painted
the exterior in IL stone-gray, a tint
beautifully set off by leather brown
trimmings.
Here also one can see some of Henry
Williams solidarity represented in d
substantial iron fence firmly based up
on stone foundation, heavy, wide
and deep. Not the least imposing
feature of this enclosure is the massive
gateway. reminding one of descrip-
tons Of the portals of the o'rano of
ancient Egypt.
Altogether the improvement is a
notable one. Both pastor and congre-
cation have earned credit for their
activity and lberality.
Tomorrow Sunday, July POI they
will signalize somewhat their JOY over
the completion of their enterprise by
re-opening the church for public
worship. AT lOl o'clock, after brief
sermon, the Sacrament of the Lords
Supper will be administered. At Z
p. m. the pastor will preach on "The
Elements of Church Prosperity"
During the day the choir will render an
thems appropriate to the glad occasion.

that "all are warmly invited to at

The Heavens VIII not Fall.

Last week somebody calling himself
"Justice" smote the temple of justice
occupied by our venerable magistrate,
H. r. Atkinson, with criticisms that
were rough, and Monday the old gen
tleman pasted the article and the fol-
lowing appendix on one of his French
plate windows:
Five DAYS after the date hereof the sane

with double body Brussels carpet and fur
nished with cut velvet chairs.

1t is said that politices make strange

previous week the first page date of

Funny to see men vino We're opposed
to new water works on account of the
expense debating to the Water Board
to pay $4,000 more than double the
sum the old works are fairly estimated
to be worth.

Re of Good Cheer.

The venerable gentlemen who dis
coursed so learnedly Tuesday evening
about insufficiency of water supply,
cost of pipe. ETC., were not all born
and brought up among water works.
One of the most surprising things in
physics is found in the difference that
an inch of diameter will make in the
capacity of a water main.
Another, how human judgments will
differ as to the amount of water pro-
duced by given spring. Some say
there is not enough water on the east
side of Savage mountain to supply
the town, when it is capable of demon
stration that the Arnold spring singly
and alone, has been and is now yield
ing more water than is pouring INTO
the forebay OF the Frostburg water
company.
The JOURNAL was on the ground
with DR.. j. Jones Thursday. There
is great amount of work to be done
at the new reservoir, but things are
taking shape preparatory to a storage
capacity for at least six weeks ahead
of all demands. But, better than
that, the plan provides for the supply
of fresh water to the town all the time,
direct from the springs, the reservoir
to be drawn upon only when necessary.
The Board have IN view several
fine, pure, soft water springs, all of
which will be tributary to our system
through new pipes directly from their
sources.
All is well.

A New Heater in St. MichacIs Catholic
Church.

During nearly two weeks WOrkmen
have been engaged in placing new
heating apparatus in St. Michael's
church Rev. S. J. Clark, the pastor,
is one of those foresighted executives
who believe that peace is the time in
which to prepare for war. Hence
the activity which has marked his
operations for some time.
The boiler introduced Is a novelty
in this section. 1t comprises a num-
Der of heavy cylindrical circulars, laid
one upon the other and firmly joined
until the series is four or five feet high.
The spiral coil thus formed is encased
in brick masonry. At the base Is a
check draft which, by an automatic
contrivance, projected by the tenn
perature ard motion of the water
above, controls the opening and clos
ing of the draft. The movement
which shuts off the draft opens the
fue door, and eice oersa. Thus the
heat is regulated through the contrac-
ton and expansion of the boiler metal
as this is affected by accumulation or
diminution of high temperature.
Among the many other advantages
set up for this heater, called by its
manufacturers the "Geyser,"i us its per-
feet safety. Each boiler is tested to
200 lbs. pressure per square inch. 1t
is easy of repair, to keep clean and to
manage, and is economical of space
and fuel The CRATE is easily manip-
ulated with closed doors, thus prevent
ing escape Of dust and ashes. 1t is
constructed with an especial view to
supply the maximum of oxygen so as
to secure perfect combustion.
The system is hot-water heating,
based upon the we'll known PHILOSOPHY
ical principal of heat expansion, the
warm water rising, the cold gravitat-
ing. The circulating apparatus is so
closely Joined throughout that the
evaporation is almost imperceptible.
Once filled, therefore, the addition of
a pail of water at intervals of several
weeks is all that is required.
The minutiae of other features and
advantages are too numerous for full
embodiment here Father Clark has,
however, given close study to all
modern systems of heating with the
object of obtaining the safest, most
economical, efficient and durable for
his purposes. And inasmuch as water
heating has every good recommend
alton that steam has,a many peculiar
to itself, he decided that for warming
his large church and residence uni
formly and comfortably the''Geyser"
is the best. With the boiler and
ample radiating apparatus throughout
both edifices he may with composure
welcome the storm of cold at any time.
Messrs. Dennis O'Connor and Law
renee WEIGH, of the Geyser Heater
Company, of Rochester, N. Y, aided
by the Messrs. Fuller, masoEs, of this
place, are doing the work.

against it.
The venerable gentlemen who ad
vocated extravaganza got off some in
temperate utterances and INDUCED a
great amount of sophistry, and when
the time to vote came the proposal to
pay $4,000 was so entangled by
qualifications that but few understood
what it implied. SO that only IA voted
5 for to 6 against. 1t is safe to say,
however, that the extravaganza side
poled its full strength out of an
audience of about 30, not exceeding
36 at any time during the meeting.
The meeting adjourned without the
benediction, as there was not enough
qualification over the result to thank
God for.
John Chambers led the fight against
insulting the Water Board. In doing
so he won nearly 100 per- rent. Of the
applause.
The revulsion of feeling against the
meeting and its object is very marked.

MY MOTHER.

When the stars begin to twinkle,
And the darkness slowly falls,
And the warm glow of the tire-light
Plays with shadows on the walls,
climb into my mothers lap,
Put my arms about her tight,
And we sit and sing together,
Till Amanda brings the light
She tells me pretty stories,
OF what happened long ago;
She sings to me the old songs,
In voice SO sweet and low.
She the very dearest mother
In all the world, know;
And she only holds me closer,
When hug and tell her SO.
