b. & o. Contracts for One Hundred
Locomotives.
In anticipation of the great de-
mand for coal by England and other
European countries, the B. & o. is
preparing for the expected rush in the
coal traffic. In addition to the 81 10
comotives ordered some time ago, an
order for 100 more was placed last
week, delivery to follow those now in
progress of construction, so that the
new locomotives will be received at
the rate of five or six a week up to
and including next September.
The addition of 161 locomotives to
the present power of the company
will enable it to give coal trade SER
vice to Baltimore unequalled by any
competing port.
The cars to be used in this trade
are the so ton steel hoppers. The
Pressed Steel Car Company is now
building 1000 of this type, which, in
addition to the 1000 already in SER
vice, will give the Baltimore and Ohio
5000 steel cars, to be used in the trade
between Cumberland and Baltimore
The company also has several thou
sand wooden and steel cars of 80 and
40 tons capacity, which can also be
placed in the trade when necessary.

tunefully popular, and are intro

Creston Clarke.


The following notice Is taken from
the Philadelphia North American, con-
corning Creston Clarkes new play,
"The Ragged Cavalier" In which he
will be seen at the Opera House Thurs
day, March Sth:
"Creston Clarke delighted another big
audience at the Park Theatre last
evening with another innovation in the
shape of "The Ragged Cavalier" a
role calling for a method of treatment
different from what his audiences have
learned to admire him. "The Ragged
Cavalier" is Hector, Marquis de st. 10,
harum-scarum knight, who moves
amid series of exciting adventures
to a happy and satisfying conclusion.
Mr.. Clarke's performance was a hit,
as was that of Miss Prince in the char
acter of Marcelle de Blois. The re-
mainder of the company were satisfac-
tory. and the play was staged in a
lavish and appropriate manner"

THF PREACHER SAITH
JESUS, THE SAVIOR.

At the M. E. church, South, Rev. R. A. Rowland preached from Matt. 1:21. Thou shalt call His name Jesus, for He shall save the people from their sins He said in part:
 The central figure in the history of the world is Jesus of Nazareth. His public life was confined to three years of painful service and unapprccia:ed labor for the sood of others, and ap- parer'.ly resulted in d:raster and de- feat. No person who ever trod the face of the earth, however. has influenced human life or affectcd human cnarac- ter like the Man of Sorrows. who w8s acquainted with grief.
 His influence has not been confined to His own age or country; but, in an ever-eNten5ing radius, His power over ma1kinI has been increasing. Anl to- Gay. 1900 years after His coming into the world, he is enshrined in millions of hearts, and there are nlIfltitudes Of H.9 followers wko would lay down their lives with joy and g'ajnsss rather than he untrue t) Him in ,rleir hearts, or deny Him in their lives. And not only so, but the followers of the Lord Jesus Christ will multiply; His power and influence increase until at the name of Jecus every knee shall how and every tongue confes5 tha'. Christ

Then as to the angle of the two rivers in which De Wet was thought to be caught there is nothing to show that the rivers could form any real obstacle. There are hardly half a dozen of these "rivers' that cannot be forded easily, and in some cases rid den across dryshod. Add to this free dom from dependence on roads, the in telligence system that De Wet finds in every Boer farm house, and it is cas- fly seen how the presence of the enemy Is reported in good time to slip away. The only hope, as already pointed out, seems to be for Gen.

ie Lord of all, to the glory of God, the Father.
 Christ possesses this marvellous influ- ence and has influenced the desli liny Of the race because He fulilced the prcph- ecy of the angel of the Lord and saves H5s people from ill,i- sim.

 The official figures from Wash ington show that immigration has expanded considerably in the last departmental yeR ar for which the statistics have been made up. In no season since 1892 has the army of newcomers been so large. The total was less than 44S,572. Of these more than 100000 came from Italy, IT, 316 from the northern part of that country and S4,346 from the southern part.
 These people may learn a smattering of English in a few years, but they will not learn to love our country in a generation. In five years they may posses the right to vote. They will ex- crcise that right not from love, nor sense of duty. but for lucre or self-in- terest. Is this right? Is it just to the native American?
