NEXT Tuesday the Bicycle Club of
this city will take vote on the ques-
ton Of having the State Bicycle Meet
in Frederick next July. Last year
the town of Cambridge secured the
wheelmen, although our people offered
every inducement possible. Ii is said
they all want to come 10 Frederick
this year and there has been manifest
ed a narrow-minded antipathy to this
by some members of the club
on account of the way that
they were treated last year. This
is not the proper spirit to possess in
matters involving the interests of the
merchants aud citizens generally, for
any large assembly of people in Fred
erick brings with it a corresponding
amount of benefit to all lines of trade
aud business. Then as a social feature
itwouid be desirable in many ways,
aswe certainly can entertain visitors
to their hearts content. Our pretty
girls will do their share, we are sure, in
giving the cyclists hearty welcome.
The club-should strive TO get them here
by all means.

THE statistics of new railroad equipment
built in this country in 1896 show that we
have built more locomotives than in 1895
and very many more cars. Carrying COM
parsons back two years, the increase both in
locomotive output and in car building are
very great. The figures presented by the
Railroad Gazette show that we built this
year 4sO locomotives more than i'm 1894 and
"a more than last year. The actual number
of engines built in 1896 was 1,175, and in
1895 /, ,lOI engines An interesting feature
brought out in this summary is the growing
importance Of export orders. In 1896 300
engines were built in this country to export
to foreign countries, the engines going chiefly
to South America, but also 10 a considerable
extent to Russia Japan and South Africa.
In 1894 only 80 engines were built for export
and in 1895 that number was exceeded, the
number built in 1894 having been unusually
small but still the growth reported in 1896
is of especial interest. Locomotive builders
in this country at present have orders on
their books for 10 engines for Japan, where
most of the engines are Of English make,

FREE CURE FOR MEN.
A Michigan Man offers to Send His Dis
covery Free.
claims to Be Benefactor to Weakened
Mankind.

There is always more or less suspicion
attached to anything that is offered free but
sometimes a man so overfows with generosity
that he cannot rest until his discovery is
known to the world, in order that his fellow
men may profit by what he has discovered.
lt is upon this principal that resident of
Kalamazoo, Mich, desires to send free to
mankind a prescription which will cure them
of any form of nervous debility relieves
them of all the doubt aud uncertainty which
such men are peculiarly liable to and restores
the organs to natural size and vigOr As it
costs nothing to try the experiment it would
seem that any man, suffering with the
nervous troubles that usually attack men
who never stopped to realize what might be
the final result ought to be deeply interested
iu a remedy which will restore them to
health, strength aud vgOr, without which
they continue to live an existence Of untold
misery. As the remedy in question was the
result Of many years research as to what
combination would be peculiarly effective in
restoring to men the strength they need, IL
would seem that all men suffering with any
form of nervous weakness ought to write for
such a remedy at once. A request to II. c..
Olds Box 17l5, Kalamazoo Mich, stating
that you are not sending for the prescription
out of idle curiosity but that you wish to
make use of the medicine by giving it "a trial
will be answered promptly and without
evidence as to where information came from.
The prescription is sent free and although
some may wonder how Mr.. Olds can afford to
give away his discovery, there is no doubt
about the offer being genuine. Cut this out
aud send to Mr. Olds so that he may know
how you came to write him. 12-2S-7St

Mystery of the Sea Explained.

the brlgantine Brazil, from the West In
dies for this port, with a valuable cargo
of goods and well manned, made this
coast She took pilot aboard and stood
in for Halifax harbor, but the wind
hauled around and she was blown out to
sen. Her disappearance was the wonder
of the coast Many other vessels saw the
Brazil as she was trying for harbor, and
it is even said that she was sighted from
her own wharf, but no trace of her was
ever found. Yesterday the schooner Sarah

Chebucto Head, twenty miles from this
port, her trawl lines fouled a sunken
wreck in forty fathoms of water. From
wreckage hauled in the sailors think the

One of the most remarkable cures of
rheumatism on record is related by Mr. J..
NJ. Thompson post master at Decker's Point,
Pa, as follows while out driving one
dav last winter I was caught in cold
rain. The next morning l was unable to
move my head or arms, owing to an attack Of
inhammatory rheumatism. My clerk tele-
phoned for a physician, but suggested that /
use Chamberlan's Pain Balm, there being a
bottle open OIL the counter He rubbed the
affected parts thoroughly with Pain Balm
and built up hot fire, | dozed off to sleep
and when l swoke about half an hour later
the pain had gone entirely, and have not
been troubled since. People come here from
many miles around to buy Chamberlain

SOME Of our newspaper GROWERS made a
great fuss because the United States built up
a new navy. They said we didn't need a
navy. Time has demonstrated its use. How
could we guard the Cuban coast and shut off
all help from the men Of that island who are
lighting for liberty, if we did not have a
navy? The President is now sending enough
Of our ships to the gulf to electually shut off
relief from Cuba. When the Cubans shall
have been subdued, and the leaders shall
have been shot, and peace shall reign over
the bloody solitudes which once were popu-
lous with men and women who loved liberty,
and were as much entitled to it as the Amer
lean rebels Of the revolution, the star
spangled banner will be entwined with the
flag of Spain to festoon the triumphal arches
erected in honor of Weyler the butcher.

49, died yesterday. His death is said to

a chambermaid, by her lover, Michael
Miniter, during lover S quarrel. Miniter
shot the girl in the left side of the head
and then shot himself in the right side of

away and the girl was removed to a hos
pital, but later she was able to return to
the Errani residence. Subsequently Mini
ter presented himself at the hospital and
was arrested.

IT is said that Spain has sent nearly
200 600 soldiers to Cuba since the insurrection
began. Probably the insurgents at no time
in the war ever numbered fifth or a sixth
Of the enemies who confronted them.
Whether the defect in the Spanish military
character is the stupidity Of its officers or the
cowardice of its rank and file is hard to
ascertain definitely. Perhaps there is a good
deal of both. At any rate it would be hard
to find in all history an instance in which an
army as dominant in numbers and equipment
as Weyer's is did as little work which
counted" as that army has done in the past
tW elve months.

AT the recent election Minnesota adopted a
constitutional amendment to the effect that
no alien shall hereafter exercise the right Of
suffrage until he shall have been fully ma
turalized and Texas decided that hereafter
no person of foreign birth shall vote in that
state unless he shall have been resident for
one year, and declared his intention to be-
come citizen six months before the election.
This sounds odd to Pennsylvauians as the
law here is that man is not a citizen, and
therefore not entitled to the franchise until
he has his full naturalization papers.

that the alien land law of that State does
not apply to the right of way of railroad
corporations will probably put an end to the
Populistic scheme to wreck one Of the
principal railroads out there This is an ad-

her senses, and getting ready to win back the
creditable reputation of her former days.
