Many ladies have used u machines
twenty to thirty years in their family work,
and are still using the original machines
we furnished them a generation ago.
Many of our machines have run more
than twenty years without repairs, other
than needles. With proper care they
never wear out, and seldom need repair.
We have built sewing machines for
more than forty years and have constantly
improved them. We build our machines
on honor, and they are recognized every
where as the most accurately fitted and
finely finished sewing machines in the
world. Our latest, the mo. g." is the
result of our long experience. In COM
petition with the leading machines of the
world, it received the Grand Prize at the
Paris Exposition. of 1889, as the best,
other machines receiving only compli-
mentary medals ofgold, silver and bronze.
The Grand Prize was what all sought for,
and our machine was awarded it.

Considerable talk has been OCCASION
ed by fact. just out. that the Water
committee of last year bought the
annex water rights from man who
did not own them. and the money was
paid-several hundred dollars. The
JOURNAL is not surprised. The race
to get away from the artesian idea was
too urgent for any stop to be made to
look into the Typographical foolish
ness of "where we are at" The matter
will probably reach court before it is
done with.
Some merchants on Main street
waste the water needessly. They
sprinkle not only their own fronts, but
throw the water away on the fronts of
those who do not pay for it. Then the
nozzle is put in the hands of a boy who
makes plaything of it, and away the
water goes without stint. Such people
need the metre system, and need it
bad.
The number of connections made to
the town works by Superintendent
Jeffries between August 7th and 18th,
inclusive, was Sail families. Of
these are new, and 46 changed from
old works.

Mr.. Wittig said when the property
was bought from Christopher Martin
there were some who thought it be-
longed tc johnson Bros. SO he made
an agreement with the Johnson Bros.
that if the property was found to be
theirs the town was to pay them $50
for it. He had papers drawn to that
effect; paid Johnson Bros. 81 on
account, and had received a receipt
for same, so he felt sure the town title
to property. was all right. However,
he advised Council to have the deed
from Martin properly recorded.
The boiler at new pumping station,
when purchased, was guaranteed by the
Washington Pump company to pro-
duce enough steam to pump 225
gallons of water to top of mountain
per minute. Mr.. Paul had told some
of the committee that boiler would
not do the required work, as it was
built for use of hard coal. The COM
mittee had written Pump company re-
garding the matter, and advised that
bill be held until a satisfactory under
standing be arrived at.
On motion, this arrangement was so
ordered.
Mr.. Smith said the Cumberland and
Pennsylvania railroad company wished
the town to furnish them for their
engines 10000, probably $4,000 gallons
of water per day. In fact, temporary
connection had been made at depot
and company had begun using water
for locomotives on the 10Th inst.
Superintendent Hamilton had agreed
to having meter put in and the water
consumed thus measured. 1t was the
intention of Water committee to put
meters into all large consumers and
charge according to amount used, as
this method would be much more
satisfactory.
Water Superintendent Jeffries in
formed Council that he had during the
past week annexed 81 new consumers,
and wherever practicable had made the
connections in the proper turn. He
thought by the end of the week would
have all applicants now known annex
ed.
Electric Light company asked per-
mission to buy poles of telegraph
company on Main and Mechanic streets
west of Water street?
On motion of Mr.. Scott, permission
was granted, provided the poles are
Strengthened within 80 days after
purchase. If the Electric Light COM
pany fails to straighten poles in the
allotted time, street supervisor is
ordered to cut them down.
Leave of absence was granted Water
Superintendent Jeffries Saturday, 10Th
inst.
AT an early hour of the session Clerk
Stevens requested to be excused fro m
duty, as he was very much indisposed.
His request was granted. Mayor
Wade appointed Councilman Jenkins

The welcome editor of the New York Herald
fell dead of heart disease last night while try
ing to announce that His Highness Maharajah
Sir Vagina Sir Hokone of Morvi and his
son, Lukdirrji had landed and had been
welcomed by the Jajat Jit Singh and other
Indian notables. We suggest to the Herald
that it endeavor to secure the services of editor
J. B. Oder, of the FRosTBURG JOURNAL. He
can welcome anybody and anything in any

Fred. Wehner has moved into his
new and pretty residence on Broad
way.
The last monuments of last years
appear. The new telegraph poles
take their places. 1t is fair to admit,
however, that Mayor Wilson and
majority of the Council were in favor
of the new poles, but the minority
were too much for them. A minority
man in Frostburg, like Cumberland
office-holder and Potomac turtle, never
lets go until his head is cut off.
A circle of 80 went to Dams Rock

The Cumberland Neecs said "typhoid
fever was never extinct in Frostburg,"
etc. The JOURNAL asked leading
physician about the status at this time.
He said ''there is one case here, and
that was contracted in Washington
city," 1t is Washington, too, where
Potomac water is the ultima thule of
purity. The Neaos' contention about
attitudes above river valleys may be
proven here in transient way, but
as a necessary condition due to alti-
tude the JOURNAL cannot believe.
There is to-day more typhoid fever
along the Monongahela river than in
a thousand miles of Allegheny noun
tain attitudes.
About so fremen went overland to

The JOURNAL found an owner for an

now it sets out to discover DIN Beall's

The JOURNAL went to Mountain
Lake Park Thursday evening to hear
Sam Jones. About 5000 people were
there ahead and the great paper could
not get in 200 feet of him on the front
side. Sam occupied about half the
time, however applause and laughter
each one-fourth. His gestures are
quaint his fun pertinent and pungent,
and his oratory, at times, sublime"
That is what Cumberland man said,
in effect-one of the precious few who
hasa right to sit in the "amen corner
The JOURNAL wanted to orystalize a
message from him and send it to Capt.
T. F. McCardell, the Aviretts, and
David W. Sloan. 1t would have most
probably done some good, for "Sam
conyicts more sinners than any living
man." At least that is what pretty
girl from Keyser told the JOURNAL.

WASHINGTON REFUSING THE GROWN.
were men who were fearful that the am
hitions and jealousies of some of those
who had been of influence during the
Revolution would lead them to attempt
to gain great personal power. There
were others who believed that as result
of the victory there would be established
in America a constitutional monarchy
modelled after that of Great Britain.
The nation as we now know it was
government yet to be created.
So a company of officers-men having
influence - having talked this matter
over, agreed to 60 to Washington, ask
him to accept the crown of empire and
to promise nim the support of the army
in establishing thus personal throne.
When they approached him Washington
believed that these officers and friends of
his had come upon some such errand as
led them often to seek him for counsel.
He was in happy frame of mind that
morning. The war was ended victori
ously, and he had already been in con-
sultation with Hamilton and some others
respecting the form of civil government
which the now free colonies should un-
dertake.
They offered him the crown in but
single sentence. A few years before,
across the river, Washington, being seat
ed at breakfast, had been approached by
an officer, who said to him that Benedict
Arnold had fled after an attempt to be-
tray West Point into the hands of the
British. The news was appalling and to
Washington must have been extraordi-
narily painful, since for Arnold he had a
personal affection which he bestowed
upon only two or three of his other Off
GERS. Yet so great was his self command,
so superb his capacity for suppressing
emotion, so thoroughly had he schooled
himself to face adversely with calmness,
that those about him only saw a look of
sad sternness come to his countenance as

Trumbull than to any other man. They
were something alike in their moral quail
tiles, although Trumbull was of Puri-
tanic riety, while Washington was not,
though each of them was religious
man.
Some fifty years ago the Hon. Learned
Hebard was appointed executor. of the
estate of William Williams, who was a
grandson of Jonathan Trumbull, and
whose father was one of the signers of
the Declaration of independence. In the
settlement Of the estate Judge Hebard
came across a vast amount of CORE
spondence, including letters which passed
between Washington and Governor
Trumbull. Some of these letters were
formal business documents: others were
of more confidential nature. They re-
vealed on the part of Washington a free
dom from reserve which none of his
other correspondence shows. One or two
of them contained that term which
Washington publicly applied to Gov
ernor Trumbull, and which for many
years was regarded us nickname for the
American nation. Brother Jonathan
Some of Trumbull's correspondence
was also found. which shows that this
man of genius and clear intellect. a man
born to be of authority himself, had
recognized in Washington that quality
of greatness carly il the time of the
Revolution and before he had demon
strated it to the world. Trumbulls let
ters, while not cxtravagant, for he was
not the man to use eXtravagant TERMS,
indicate that Trumbull regarded Wash
ington as having been specially furnished
by Providence with those greater quail
ties, not only military, but moral, which
were necessary to establish the Ameri-
can nation. He had almost the feeling
for Washington which Arnold had, al
though in his case there was personal in
timacy and almost an equality of rela-
ton which probably no other man of the
Revolution enjoyed.
Thus the impression and influence
which Washington created and exerted
upon these two men-one of brilliant
ability, but morally bad; the other Of in
tellectual and moral integrity and of
statesmanlike quality-suggest how it
was that to men of all quality the I'M
preston that he gave was that of great
ness, exactly as to the greatest intellects
of this day, like Gladstone's, the same i'm
preston has been given by a study of
his life. E. JAY EDWARDS.
