the same time the question of reducing the
passenger rates between this place and
Baltimore will be raised
Inquiries raised by this committee have
thrown much light on a subject that has
been interesting the citizens of this town
for the last six years. On Christmas day
1888, ground was broken on Washington
avenue, and tracks We're placed in position.
Much enthusiasm was caused by this act
and the citizens thought long-felt want
was about to be gratfied. However, moth
ing came of the enterprise, and the town
mad a torn-up street to contend with.
Again, about three years ago there was
promise Of Laurel being connected with
Washington and Baltimore by an electric
road. This promise did not materialize
With the assurance of one of the head
officials of the aforementioned company,
it may reasonably be expected that Laurel
will at last be brought in touch with
Washington by means of the extension of
the electric road
Mr.. D. NJ. Fisher, the representative Of
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad at this
place, informed the board that the COM
pany had industrial department, which
published the facilities of the different
towns on it's system. He stated that if
Laurel would furnish this department
with the advantages possessed by this
place in the way of inducements to man.
ufacturing concerns to locate the depart
ment would gladly publish the same
The question of procuring the necessary
land upon which the Industries could be
erected brought forth much discussion
Members of the board claimed that as
there is already evidence of the sincerity
OF the town in it's desire to get manufac-
turing interests to locate here it would
meet other enterprises in the same way.
The organization now numbers over a
hundred members. The next meeting will
be held on the 27th of this month

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star.
BOYD'S, Md, March IA, 1901.
A disease has attacked the horses through
out this locality which gives the farmers
good deal of uneasiness. Several valuable
horses on the farm of Mr.. Arthur Williams,
sheriff of this county, whose farm Is near
Jacksonville, were attacked with the dis
ease a few days ago The surgeons pro-
nOunce it to be a very severe form OF
spinal meningitis, and a result of the
ailment a young and valuable Percheron
draught horse died yesterday and a valu-
able mare is expected to die. Farmers
from the surrounding community are re-
porting that their horses are sick, and they
fear the disease may be the same and may
be spreading.
The Baltimore and Ohio railroad has be-
gun work on the extension of the sidings
at Boyd's. The sidings will be extended
$50 feet.

UNDER THE SNOW.
CHASTITY Truths Revealed on the Disap-
pearance Of Winters White Mantle.

Deadly dangers furk in the ground left
bare by the departing snow. All Winter
long there have been accommodating deadly
disease germs
These have been protected and kept alive
by the covering of snow and now. with the
first warm days, these dsath-bringing mi
erobes are awakened by the rays of the sun,
and as the ground dries they are carried to
all corners Of the com immunity in the dust that
Is blown everywhere by the Spring winds
The human body at this time Is particu-
larry susceptible to these germs, espe cially
the germs Of fevers. The system has been
depleted by the foregoing Winter. The blood
is sluggish and filled with impurities. The
nerves have not recovered from the tension
they have been under for the past months.
The stomach, the bowels, the kidneys, the
liver are all at their worst.
It's therefore, not strange that these germs
OF disease find fertile ground in which to
thrive, flourish and develop into deadly ills.
Spring is the time of year when one should
fear an attack OF fever, especially when the
system is depleted, one should dread any
severe illness. The vitality is at low ebb
There is less power of resistance to throw off
disease and it is on this account that fatal
tiles are so much greater during the Spring
months than at any other time of the year.
There is but one way to ward of such
dangers, and that is to fortify the human

body so that it viii become improbable to
the germs of invading disease.
To do this take DR.. Greene's Nervura blood
and nerve remedy. 1t will build you up
quickly, it will re-establish your waning
appetite, it will give you restful nights Of
sleep, it will give vim and vigor to the
nerves. and it will dispel all existing poisons
that have accumulated in the body besides
counteracting the effects of others that may
accumulate.
Following is an instance that will illustrate
the wonderful power of DR.. Greene's
Nervura blood and nerve remedy.
Sheriff Jonas I. Stevens, who is sheriff of
Hyde Park, Vt, says: u have used DR..
Greene's Nerrura blood and nerve remedy
especially as blood purifier. had very
severe humor on my arms, accompanied by
a very bad itching, so severe that could not
sleep nights, causing me great ineonv enience
by the loss of sleep by the itching. A friend
advised me to take DIR. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy, which did with
the most satisfactory results, for the trouble
has entirely disappeared, and can now rest
comfortably nights and have none of my
former misery from the burning, itching
sensations
Remember DR.. Greene's advice will be
given to any one desiring same absolutely
free if they will write or call upon him at his
Office, IS W. 14th ST., New York City.

ROCKVILLE AND VICINITY.
Alleged Motive for Burning a School
HOuse-Other News.

Special Correspondence Of The Evening Star
ROCKVILLE, Md. March IA, 1901
The motive for the recent burning Of the
colored public school house at Ounce
Orchard this county, Is believed to have been
a desire on the part of the perpetrators
to get rid of the services of Giles White,
the teacher. Several efforts were made to
have him removed, but without success,
and the act Of incendiarism is thought to
have been resorted to to emphasize the
sentiment in that locality against White.
Some days ago the county school commits
sioners made a bargain for the rental of
the colered church at Ounce Orchard for
the temporary use of the school but when
White applied for the keys the holder re-
fused to give them UP. 1t is said that an
effort will be made to secure a private
house In that locality. but it is not be-
lieved that one can be rented. as it Is
feared its fate would be similar to that
OF the school house, If White should be
continued as teacher. No clue to the in
cendiaries has yet been obtained.
Mr.. William H. Kimball, a well-known
citizen of this county. died Monday night

The handsome residence of Mr.. William
L. Reed, at Forest Glen, this county, was
recently entirely destroyed by fire. The
contents, including large quantity of fur

not known.
Mrs. Carter. wife Of Mr.. Alexander Car
ter of Jamestown district. died Monday
evening OF pneumonia, resulting from the
grip, aged thirty-two years. Her husband
and two small children survive her. The

STEAMER ON A ROPE.
The Towing of Boats Through the
Iron Gates of the Danube.
From ne London Mall

For centuries the navigation on the Dam
ube, the largest river of Europe next to the
Folga, was greatly hampered by the So
called Iron Gates, celebrated defie in the
river at the confines OF Hungary, Seryta
and Roumania- At this place the river is
crossed from shore to shore on length OF
about 5000 feet by rocky masses, and many
a ship went aground in the Iron Gates,
which always had been terror to all nayi-
gators. 1t is the most magnificent and
greatest river defile in the whole of Eli
rope During the years of 1880 to 1896 a
scheme was carried out here which involved
immense diniculties A canal 275 feet wide
and Z feet deep was cut through the rocks
OF the Iron Gates. No less than IA 600 900
cubic feet of rocky masses had to be bIa ST.
ed, and more than J0,OOO,OOO cubic feet of
stone ana earth had to be excayated. A
great number OF dams, of combined
length of 5000 feet. had to be built to pro-
tect the canal. The expenditure for this
work amounted to about 12,OOOOOO forms.
Since the completion Of this canal the navi-
cation on the river has steadily increased
and thousands of steamers and banks now
sail every year down to the Black sea-
One drawback however, remained. The
current in the Iron Gates Is immense it
averaging from fourteen to eighteen feet
per second, and 1t was especially difficult
for the heavily laden ships to steam up
stream through the gates or to tow the
barges against the current
1t was. therefore decided to build a spe.
cial wire rope steamer for the purpose OF
towing ships through the defile The
steamer was built at Buda Pesth, and has
recently been put on the river. The Vasapu
as the steamer is named is entirely built
OF steel 1t has length of 1886 feet is
2ol4 feet broad. its draft being 5.44 feet. 1t
Is divided into nine water-tight compart-
ments. and has double bottom, so that
even in the case of a serious accident the
vessel will not sink. A wire rome oO Nn
feet in length, and almost one foot in diam
eter. having a resistance of eighty -four
tons, Is strongly anchored to rock at the
upper end of the gates at the bottom Of the
river bed. This rope. or cable, runs over
drum installed on board the steamer. The
vessels to be taken up stream are lowed
toward the steamer, and the cable Is then
drawn around the drum by means of a
steam engine of 300 horsepower. The wire
rope vessel has IN addition two other en-
gines. so as to enable her to run independ-
emit of the cable. Each of these two engines
has a capacity of $50 horsepower. The
speed Of the steamer, with two loaded YES
sells OF GOO tons IN tow, is I3 miles per
hour. when sailing against the current, and
between four and five miles per hour when
going down stream. The steamer has also
been equipped with powerful dynamo
which furnishes electric light and feeds q
searchlight.
