For some time the Baltimore and
Ohio Southwestern Railway company
has been experimenting with crude
oil for kindling fires in locomotives. in
place CT using cord wood, and the re-
suits obtained have been SO satisfac-
tory that it will hereafter be used on
the whole line. During the month of
November, 1897, at the company's
shops, which are located at Washing
ton, Ind, and Chillicothc. Ohio, 1925
fires were started with crude oil at
cost OF $1732, or 1.41 cents per fire.
TO have started the same number OF
fires with wood the cost would have
been $4,000. or 24.96 cents per FIRE.
This represents a saving OF $2SS.6s.

up the end of a tie, when Taylor seized an
axe living close by and dealt him two power

| fell to the ground without word. and the
two bows made start to interfere. Taylor
turned sayagely on them and they ran. He
then threw the axe at them, but failed to
strike them. He then picked up the axe,
and, saying swell, I'll finish this one any
| way.'' returned to where Morris almost life.

| man three more terrific blows with the back
| of the axe, crushing in the skull. Taylor i'm
| mediately left, but was captured at RayvilIe,

Children's Day at PatapscO.

One of the most successful Childrens Day
service ever held at Patapsco NJ. E. Church,
took place on last Sunday afternoon. The
church was beautifully trimmed and an ap
preciative audience filled the church to over
flowing was present. The program used was
"Historic Pictures" Ii was program that
required much effort for its preparation. But
those that did the managing and training of
the children and grown people proved them
selves equal to the task, and there was not a
failure at single point. The different parts,
some of them lengthy, were thoroughly COM
mitted. The exercises proved highly enter
tanning and instructive to the audience. The
large pictures exhibited representing historic
scenes in Methodism added much to the en-
tertainment. The parts performed by the
little children constituted happy and most
pleasing feature of the program. AT the con-
clusion of the service the pastor, Rev. c. E.
Dudrear, made an address and good collec-
ton was received for the cause of education.
Mr.. Charles Spencer, the superintendent,
had charge of the exercises. Mr.. John
Houck led the singing and Miss Stella Croft
presided at the organ.

Great Bicycle Meet.

The bicycle race meet. to be held at Pleas
ure Park, near Westminster, on the Both OF
june by the Cycling Ramblers, of Westmin-
ster. promises to be the greatest event OF this
character ever held in Carroll county. Every
effort is being made by the wheelmen to make
It a red-letter day. Wheelmen from every
section of the State are applying for blanks to
enter the races, which vary from half mile
clip to a twenty five mile race. Some of the
speediest riders from Philadelphia and Wash
ington will enter for the prizes, which aggre-
gate $4,000, and as many of the contestants
have records of mile in less than two min
utes, it is likely that rare sport will be wit
messed.
The Carroll County Band will be in atten-
dance, and at night will give an open air
concert near the railroad. President Hood
of the Western Maryland Railroad has prom
ised to run excursion trains from Baltimore
at 81 90 for the round trip, returning at 10
O'Clock p, m.
1t is estimated that at least fifteen hundred
wheelmen will be present, as number OF
clubs from Baltimore, Frederick and Hagers,
town have already signiGed their intention OF
participating. There will be $50 contestants
in the races.
