b. NJ. A.At the first monthly meeting Of
the Business Mems Association of rhurlnont,
on Monday evening last, the first decisive
step, looking to II progressive future, was
taken. BY an unanimnus vote it determined
to make public demonstration Of facts long
since recognized, but never put to practical
use, that properly presented to enterprising
men, should and we have au abiding faith
sciN result in Il bcttermcnt, by solid and legi-
innate methods.
We are not in a position to lie able 10 state
in DEAL the character of the proposed demon
stration, the main question alone having been
determined: we can say however that the
prime object will b. I" attract the attention
Of capitalists who are ready to develop 10
their utmost the sterling natural advantages
that we possess. Just what those resources
and advantages are, an enumeration thereof
here and now would simply be an oft-'oId
tale. That we possess them and that IN the
Judgment of many our neglect thereof has
been mexpicablc, is all that is essential to
note. The die has bccn cast and practically
the wisdom, energy and money Of Thurmont
has SO determined; "a gen line busines'-likc
care must be taken Of the movement; T."
nonsense; no false sclf-lauda,ion or impnssi
BILE conceit should I've permitted to defect it
from the foundation principle and idea, that
persistent intelligent and united effort to
impress upon men, who are abe to make us
great, the assurance that coupled with that
possibility is the certain assurance that II
will be profitable for them to do so.
AT meeting called for tomorrow friday
evening further and definite steps willikely
be taken to put in motion measures that will
work out the details Cf the demonstration.
Henccforwarl the meetings should be large
and earnest there will be ample room for
every member to exercise his talents and the
v,,ws of all should aid in determining the
several final steps Of the body.
DEATH OF J. A. CoLLIFLowER After a

cause at his death.
The deceased was the last Of four sons, the
second in birth and his denth robs the par
cnts of an entire family of children, all Of

1t Is with mixed feelings that we essay to
speak of Albert Colliflower; VT esteem it
privilege to speak of one for whom we nrc
bound to speak so kindly we regret Our ina
bilitv to write as we feel. He was good
man, earnest, loyal and true TO every well.
founded sentiment that possessed him; ex,
,reme nor iIlibcral in anything, yet he was
posliye there was no difficulty in locating
him as he always defined himself courageous-
w. He was an active and aggressive bust
ness man, sh,ewd and careful, but no one
more honorable. Socially, he was light
hearted, atfahle and companiona5le few of
us can lay claim to like indisrosition to the
use of unknd sayings; in his criticisms he
was charitable to fault.
He was an earnest Christian. nm active
member of the Moravian Church at Glaccham
and his walk in life was in full accord with
his professions.
He married about thirteen years ago, Jen-
ME, daughter of Mr. Chas. A Eyler of Eylers
Valley, who with five children survive him.
For twelve years he hpd been engaged in
mercantile busincs at at franklin Mills and
his remaining there for that length of time
gives evidence of the estimate placed upon
him by those with whom he came in business
contact

years; sci wees we've held at his late home at
II O'Clock the funeral sermon was preached
