The Popular IA &c

The remarkable popularity of the
Switchback, located for limited time
at the corner q Main and Sixteenth
streets, continues without any abate-
ment in interest. Patrons frequently
have to await their turns on the tobog-
gan merry go-round, and the music Of
the orchesrion adds to the pleasure Of
the ride. 1t is becoming a fad for
young and old of all classes. If you
have nal had ride on it, don't miss the
opportunity.

TOWN AND VICINITY.


The JOURNALS insistence upon ac-
curacy in printing matter for the pub
lie eye obtains strong emphasis in a
recent experience of General William
MacMahon MacKaig, of Cumberland.
He says
he did not say the words attributed to
him in the interview generally published
about his never having been beaten. card
was published in Cumberland local paper
over General McKWg's signature, in winch
he is made to say And there is nOta Demo-
Crat in Western Maryland who would make
4 stronger candidate than the man who was
never beaten General McKaig saws those
were the words Of the editor printed the day
before in an editorial, and that in declining
to be candidate he had cut them out and
pasted them on the paper on which he
wrote the leClinatOn, in which he thanked
The editor for the compliment Instead of
putting the clipped part in quotations, all
was made TO appear as If General McKag
had written it.
That editor, whoever he is, may have

against him.
Hence, the very embarrassing posi-
ton his error placed the politically
modest and retiring general.

There is probably no danger that J.
