Concert! Concert !!-Sonething Entirely
Ne@!-Arrangements have been made by
which the citizens of this town will be favor
ed with a new and novel entertainment, such
as they may not haye the opportunity of at
tending in lifetime. Prof. Charles f.
Sanders, of the Edison phonograph, will de-
liver one of his grand concerts from the per-
fected photograph on Friday evening, July
s, 1892.
Don't miss this opportunity to hear and see
the greatest scientific wonder of the times .
1t is truly marvellous to think of hearing
voices through the photograph that may
now be at rest forever or that spoke long
ago and at places far distant-to hear them
speak as if actually present. All this is
possible and is actually accomplished by this
wonderful little instrument. You sit back in
the audience and hear the finest music and
Rotations delivered by persons at New York.
Newark, Washington, Pittsburg and else
where, employed specially for the purpose.
The programme will consist of choice Sc
lections by the U. S. Marine Band, of Wash
ngton, ID. c.; Cappa's Band the First
Regiment Band and others; finest rendering
on flute, cornet, clarionet, saxophone, Xylo-
phone and other Instruments; comic songs
and recitatlOnSi quartette songs by the best
singers in the country.
No effort will be spared to exhibit this in
strunent in all phases of ITS use: For this
purpose, record will be taken in presence
of the audience and Immediately reproduced.
This concert has been given with marked
success in Martinsburg, Cumberland, Bed
ford and other parts of this and other neigh
boring States. Its great success has warrant
ed the managers in procuring an entirely
new outfit at great expense. They are now
better able than ever to fill the public de-
mand for their services.
Come one, come all, and hear what you
may never have the opportunity of hearing
again-in Meats Opera House. General adj
mission, 25 cents. Reserved seats 35 cents.

Capt. john Sheridan was last week
elected to represent West Virginia in
the national democratic committee. 1t
is not at all likely the Captain wants or
would accept an office for himself.
Hence, he plays his part in politics
for his friends. He is, therefore, Il
good man for aspiring West Virginia
democrats to tie to. Should Cleveland
be elected he will be a mighty man at
headquarters. His friendship is worth
a great deal anyhow.

Coming Events.

Prof. Sanders photograph concert
will be worth hearing. He proposes
to exhibit the instrument as perfected
to this hour-something far in advance
of the nickel-in-the-slots samples which
stand around in railway stations,
saloons and stores. Be sure to read the
"New Business Local" headed "Con-
cert !" The concert will be held under
the auspices of the Luther Alliance of
this place.
The Epworth League will hold IL
grand carnival in the lecture room of
the NJ. E. Church next Monday, Tues

Water Works.

An observer told the JOURNAL the
other day that there is enough wafer
going to waste all along the new
system to keep a third Of the town
going.
And another gentleman stated that
the terra Gotta pipe, laid to carry off the
fireclay water, costing at least 10 cents u
foot, had been taken up and portion
or all sold to private parties at ) cents
foot
Which is represented as brilliant
stroke Of economy.
The same gentleman had noticed
that the water had become hard"
indicating tireclay infusion.
Hearing which, the JOURNAL ascer-
tanned that certain Councilman had
extracted a certain plug, thereby ad-
hitting to the new mains the very OBJ
jectionable tireclay water.
What the object can be is Il matter
of considerable speculation, some not
at all creditable to the gentlemen
named.
There has been no need of additional
water, no drouth and no complaint
from any quarter concerning the
water. There have been no extensions
made, consequently no new drafts on
the supply.
What was it done for?
Was it to vitiate the new water-to
make it unacceptable so that it can be
pointed to as needing the entree of the
overground, pasture land and hog
wallow washings of the old company
to make it pure
And is the conclusion to make no
more extensions" part of plan to
make it appear that the new supply is
inadequate?
Then to demonstrate to the people
that the purchase of the old water
works is two-fold necessity?
There may be no ground whatever
for the fears thus excited, but we in
form the gentlemen that they are
under suspicion.
Moreover, that the JOURNAL is
authorized by reputable citizens to call
an indignation meeting whenever it
appears there is real basis for the fear
that any part of the towns interest is
to be thrown away in the purchase of
the old works.

grounds with a score of Is to 2.
A McKeesport Pa.) team is billed
to play Bowery at the Diving Park
Monday afternoon. 1t will be Il good
game.
The Cumberland papers give de-
servedly big praise to the Bowery
team, notably Dillon and Jack.
Say, boys-why not drop the section
al name, "Bowery,"' and call your
selyes "Frostburg ?" As a name for
so fine club "Bowery" is a back
number. Besides. when you go from
home nobody understands what Bow

stitute ''Frostburg' and challenge the
county, especially Homecoming, to
down the metropolis-if they can.

AT a meeting of the Directors of the

per- cent. for the six months ended that
day was declared, and the same was
paid yesterday. The sum of $500 was

reasonably desired. The president,
