1t is expected that the bricklay-

the interior of the buildings yet
remains to be done.

A Suggestion.

If you want to sell list your prop
erty with the agent whom you
think will do business for you most
satisfactorily-one to whom peo
pie come to buy-one who adver.
tises literally, far and wide, for
customers, and treats them right
when they come, and one who will
show your property to the custom
ers.
If you want to buy, go to the
same one-he knows titles. You
want clear title.
If your property or life is not
insured you are taking chances
long ones. Most of us can't af
ford to take them If you can't.
go to the agent who knows the in
surance business and is aresponsi.
bic citizen. Don't fear you won't
get the lowest rates-he don't let
business get away from him by
charging more than others that
would be ridiculous.
Loans made when security IS
satisfactory.

like, drawn skillfully on short no.

The Jeweler.
A Trip to Chinatown.

Charles Hoyt, the popular Amer
lean playwright, has been catering
to the risible side of the tickle
public for the past decade, and
during that time he has contrib
uted many successes to the Amer
ican stage. His greatest success
is "A Trip to Chinatown" and this
comedy was, and always will be,
the most popular with theater-
goers. 1t teens with bright dia-
logue and witty filings that give it
the true Hoytian jingle. 1t is
original in every line, the unex-
pected always happening, AMI no
sooner does one laugh situation 60
by, than the auditor is plunged
into another before he has scarce
ly ceased laughing at the last. 1t
is by this constant keeping the
interest at the extreme tension that
one of the secrets of Hoyts sue.
cesses may be discovered.
Next Friday evening at the
opera house the new "A Trip to
Chinatown" will be presented, re-
yised and polished up to date,
presented by cast of singers,
dancers, comedians and burles
quers, the strongest ever se,n in
this comedy, headed by Harry Gil
foil. Tickets on sale at Davies

Frostburg mining journal. [volume] (Frostburg, Md.) 1871-1913, 1900-01-27

Examiners of applicants for census
work, just returned from the West,
declare that the educational centre of
the county is in that section.
Next to Kansas Michigan comes in
point of competency.
Taken en- mdSSe, two thirds of the
western applicants passed in the east
over one-half failed.
The comparison teaches that there
is more earnestness in the matter of
education felt and shown in the west
than east; more money spent to good
purpose more sacrifice of convenience,
and more dedication of fitness to en-
vironment.
Here, from top to bottom, it is a
political-favor scramble, supplement
ed by arrangements to suit the con
venience and profit of teachers-all
this before a solitary thought is be-
slowed upon the primary, secondary
and final beneficiaries of the system
the pupils. After the officials are
fixed in the places they want and the
teachers are located so they can "earn
their living at home," the poor pupils
for whose benefit the system was
solely established, have to take the
chances of subordination to fit or I'M
fit tutorship. If it is fit it is more the
outcome of accident than design.
All this sort of thing, of course, i'm
plies frightful amount of ill-trained
teaching force, perfunctory work, and,
back of all, unripe scholarship. Take
the single exercise of composition. The
smallness of the number of Maryland
teachers capable of putting matter in
shape for the press, if known, would
occasion public establishment.
Then there is the important matter
of spelling. If there is school in lie
gany county wherein pupils are prop
erly taught to spell the JOURNAL does
not know of it.
Hence, while we know nothing to
support the statements made by census
examiners concerning the superior
educational quality of western people,
we do know that public school eff
ficiency in this longitude is vastly
handicapped by general miscarriage
of purpose and dead-wood oversight.

A teachers institute" has been 60
ing on in Cumberland this week, and
the JOURNAL notices in the reports
that people who ought to be strict
constructionists of terms still speak of
system as patrons" There is, prob
ably, no term which literally defines
either class, but for those who send
their children to the public schools the
word, bcnefciaries, is preferable. On
the other hand, those who send to
private schools are preferably patrons.
la some sense in each case parents
are both patrons and beneliciaries but
as under no circumstances can they
be equally both, they are Prete1"6ty the
one or the other.
The comfy treasprer's statement
was miserably printed this quarter,
but the JOURNAL managed to make
out that of the nearly $5S 900 taxes
due, Cumbel land owes over T3l 900
considerably more than half OF the
amount. THIS represents nearly !
millions Of taxable property. Add >
millions unassessed and it will be seen
the county has got along so far this
year practically without II cent of IN
come from millions of its property.

How il Works =.

1t required four years of official place, hold
ing to convince the Hon. Asa Bushnell that
civil service reform is good thing. 1t
seems strange that our public men fail to
grasp such ideas at the inception of their
official careers. Washington Post.
The strangeness is only in the SEEM
ing.
Take, for instance, our own able,
eloquent congressman, who denounced
the merit system at Hagerstown over
year ago-it is pretty certain that in
less than three years hence, if not this
year, he will contend that when the
people have a good thing in the way
OF congressman they should keep it..

they sometimes play havoc with

The Secret Coming Out.

Frostbury has accepted from the drillers
another "artesian well'' and has ordered that
the good work be continued. If water can
be gotten on top of the mountains why can it
not be had in the valleys ?-Cumberland

Perhaps it is because that five mil

Cumberland that is not on the county
assessment books doesn't want to be-
come liable in whole or in part for a
bonded debt even so small as 10 cents
of each $50.

Quite a pleasant affair last Friday
night was birthday party given by
Mr.. and Mrs. Otto Hohing in honor of
their daughter, Miss Emma. Those
present were Misses Gertrude Co.'S
grove, Ina Frey, Ruth Rodda, Eliza
beth Hartlg, May McCaughan, and
Messrs. George N. Beall, Harry Keller,
h. Mason Hill, Adolph Frey, Charles
Stewart and George q. Jeffries. The
entertainment began with little farce
entitled "A Family Disturbance" and
the remainder of the evening was
spent in dancing, cards and music
until IL! o'clock, when quite IL novel
tete-a-tete luncheon was served. An
enjoyable feature was realistic per-
sonation of the following notables-
"Martha Washington" miss Ophe-
lia," "Gretchen," brigham Young"
"Oriando Stevanus" and "Rastus
Johnsing." During the evening Miss
May Mclaughlin, on behalf of her as
sociate employees of the Hltchns Bros.
company, in few well chosen words
presented Miss Emma with complete
toilet set. The entertainment closed
at late hour, all agreeing in pro-
nouucing Miss Emma up-to-date as IL

Don't Abolish IL,

The JOURNAL does not like to hear
OF fire companies petitioning for the
abolition of the Office of State Fire
Marshal.
In view of the report that the num-
Der OF fires has decreased - per cent.
under State inspection of origin. etc,
1t looks like the firemen regard the of.
flee as one which deprives them of OPP
portunities to save property.
But the least costly fire is the one
that doesn't have to be extinguished-
the one that, for any cause, doesn't
"catch on" to any description of
valuable combustibles.
