Power From the Potomac.

1t is probable that before the end of
another year the Potomac river at dam
No. 5 will be harnessed and power
conveyed to Martinsburg for street
car line and other purposes. Apph-
cation has been made at Charleston
by Martinsburg and Maryland capt.
talists for a charter for the Martins
burg Power Company, which will erect
the power plant at the dam. The
four abandoned turbine wheels of the
Potomac Pulp Company, which has
sold out to the new company, will be
used in generating power for the new
plant. Large cables will be stretched
from the plant to Martinsburg, con-
Meeting with the intermediate towns
and villages. The waterfall at the
dam is said to be the highest along
the Potomac-22 feet. The masonry
work extends across the river a dis
lance of LOO feet. The present Of
fcers ofthe Martinsburg Electric Com
pany will continue as the officers Of
the new company, with the addition
of S. A. Williams, of Belair, Nd, who
represents the stockholders of the
old Potomac Pulp Company as one of
the directors. DR.. S. N. Myers is the
president. When the plant is COM
pleted and the power is conveyed to
Martinsburg it is expected that many
new industries will start up there to
take advantage of the cheap power.
Superintendent Shoemaker says the
plant will be able to furnish electric
power to Martinsburg, Hagerstown,
Williamsport, Hancock, Shepherds
town and Winchester. The promo
tiers purpose operating street-car lines
and establishing lighting plants in the
various towns. The project includes
a trolly road from Martlnsburg to the
Potomac river, there to connect with
the Williamsport branch Of the Ha-
gerstown Electric railway. Work on
the plant at the dam has already be-
gun. Engineers have started to lay
off pole line from the dam to Mar
tinsburg, where the steam power plant
will be d:smantled.

to eight ounces of soup, Zone gill
to half pint, is all that should be
served to each person at dinner.
These fluid soups quickly disappear
as soon as they reach the stomach,
being rapidly absorbed by the blood
vessels and can interfere in no way
with the action Of the gastric juice.
Well-made soups served at the COM
mencement of dinner quickly refresh
es hungry person and furnishes just
sufficient nutriment in read
lily digested form to save
that period of trial, which in the
absence of soup, must be endured by
the stomach until it can derive some
portion of nutriment from the more
solid food substances that follow.
Thus 1t serves as a useful ally to the
digestive organs in strengthening them
for their Forthcoming duties. A small
quantity of clear soup will generally
enable delicate person, suffering
from over-fatigue, to relish and digest
a sufficiently hearty meal that without
soup, would either be refused or prove
indigestible.
THE PRINCIPLES OF SOUP
MAKING.
The principal object is to extract as
much as possible from II materials
used in making soup; and not only to
retain nutriment, and natural fiavors
but to add to and increase the pala
tableness of these.
The simplest and weakest soup and
the one most frequently in demand,
is the product of the ''stock-pot." A
general complaint from housekeepers
is that so many published recipes call
