To Protect the People

Some Of the alum powder manufacturers who

SEVENTY YEARS AGO.
Interesting Relics of the Founding
of the II. 81 o. Railroad.

1t will be seventy years on the 4th Of
July, 1898 since the corner stone Of the
present Baltimore and Ohio Railroad was
laid in Baltimore by Charles Carroll of
Carrollton, who. as is well known, was
one of the signers of the Declaration Of
Independence.
This fact was brought to mind this week
by the removal from the Baltimore and
Ohio treasurer's vault TO the Masonic
Temple in Baltimore OF the Masonic en-
blems and tools which were used by Gen.
Carroll during the ceremonies of laying
the corner stone. They consist of badges,
a troweI, a spade, and stonecutter's 5
hammer, and also the apron worn by
Thomas Young Nichol, a working stone
mason. who performed the actual labor of
setting the corner stone in its place. There
was very large procession Of mechanics,
civilians, military, etc, on that day, and
one of the relics still preserved is tin
cup made by the tin plate workers who
were IN the procession on large float.

EFFECTS OF THE WAR.
Disastrous Results to the Clothing
Trude.

The fact that about one million dollars
worth of fine clothing has been returned
from the South TO wholesalers, on ac-
count of the war scare. proves the truth
of the old adage 1T is an i'll wind that
blows no one any good"
The great Inter-Ocean building on
Ninth Street is packed to the roof with
returned stocks. the three leading cloth
iers of Boston having combined TO sell
them here at any sacrifice. The dumping
of such an immense quantity Of fine and
medium grade clothing on the Washing
ton market has caused panic among
local dealers, who are naturally unable
to approach the Boston merchants sac
rifice figures.
It is quite true that thousands of peo-
pie have been benefited by the great saw
ing effected, and, therefore, the greatest
good has been done for the greatest num-
Der.
The mass of the people are the gamers,
the minority of manufacturers and deal
ers the losers.
This is the true view to take of this
great sale.
1t is stated that the Boston Mer-
chants Trading Company at the great
Inter-Ocean building, 512 Ninth Street,
offer sl2 Spring Suits Tor s2.75; 800 Suits
at $3.50, and fine Clay Worsted Suits,
with wide French facings, for $685. 1t
is hard to believe this, but the facts speak
for themselves.

ers for s2.29; mems Sc Crash Suits are
thrown at you for s1.9S; Crash Trousers
at &C.; Boys SIPS Knee Pants, with

The sole reason for this vast reduction
is the enormous amount of goods-S floors
full-which must be turned into cash.

The Y. NJ. c. A. Building Fund.


For some time. even during the in
tense war excitement the board of
managers of the Young Mems Christian
Association has been holding frequent
meetings to decide upon some fixed policy
as to when il would be wise to commence
the work of constructing their new build
ing. On account of the many difficulties
which confront the association, 1t has
been a very hard matter to decide, but,
after careful consideration, the matter
has been settled by the unanimous
adoption of the following resolution:
BE IL resolved, by the board Of man
ayers of the Young Mems Christian AS
sociation, in meeting assembled, That
they viii begin the work of construction
Of the proposed new building when cash
and subscriptions to the amount Of 100000
are In hand"
The principal reason for this action is
that the deed which conveys the prop
erty. Nos l409 and 1411 New York Ave
nue. TO the association contains pro-
visions which would make II difficult, II
not impossible, TO place loan upon IT.
In fact one of the real estate title COM
panies has given 1t as its opinion that
the trustees OF the association are with
out power. by reason of certain provi-
slons tn the deed. TO place a loan upon
the property. Then. besides. number of
the larger subscriptions TO the building
fund have been made upon the condi-
tions that slG1a be raised.
The association is in n somewhat en-
harTassinE position. Many people are
urging that the work Of construction
should begin at once. Under the circum-
stances. this Is impossible until $4,000
has been subscribed. Already about Si3.-

CAN We BE CURED

A Test by Which the True Value of

How many thousands there are today

the air we breathe or not at all. Not
only this, but a germicide must be used
which will leave the air dry, and yet
