ARREST OF REV. L. A. RUDISILL.

Causes Much Discussion Among Those
Who Frequent Mountain Lake Park
The news that Rev. l.. A. Rudisill.
the general manager of the affairs at
Mountain Lake Park had been ar
rested on a charge of embezzIement
caused quite a stir among the friends
7 OF Mr.. Rudisill.
The matter has been thoroughly
discussed since the story was printed,
and the consensus of opinion is that
Rev. Rudisill will, when the time
comes, prove himself innocent of the
charge.
I 1t is claimed that there are a num-
Der of people at the Park who do not
like Mr. Rudisill and who have been
waiting for an opportunity to attack
him
1t is rumOred that there is feeling
against the manager among the all
year people of the Park because he
was good about looking after the
property interests of those who reside
there only in the heated season.
There are also Parkites who are not
surprised to hear of the arrest for
they claim that the affairs of the asso-
citation have been carelessiy conduct
ed. One goes so far as to say that
general investigation and reorganiza-
ton is to be made and that some SEN
sational developments may result.

PLAN FOR MARYLAND.
AttOrney-Generai Bryan Suggests COnsti-
tutiOnaI Amendment.

Attorney-Generai Bryan Suggests Consti-
tutiOnaI Amendment.
The full text of the amended con-
stitutiOnal provision proposed by At
torney- General Bryan for the purpose
of DISTINGUISHING the negro in Mary
land is as follows:
SECTION l. All elections shall be by
ballot, and every male citizen of the
United States, of the age of 81 years
or upward, possessing the qualifica-
tiOns hereinafter prescribed, who has
been a resident of the State for -
years, and of the legislative district
Of Baltimore city or of the county in
which he may offer to vote for -
months next preceding the election,
shall be entitled to vote in the ward
or election district in which he re
sides at all elections hereafter to be
held in this State, and in case any
county or city shall be so divided as
to form portions of different electoral
districts for the election of Represent.
atives in Congress, Senators, Dele
gates or other officers, then to entitle
person to vote for such officer he
must have been a resident of that
part of the county or city which shall
form part of the electoral district in
which he offers to vote for - months
next preceding the election but Il
person who shall have acquired a res
idence in such county or city entitling
him to vote at any such election shall
be entitled to vote in the election
district from which he removed until
he shall have acquired a residence in
the part OF the county or city to
which he has removed.
Before any person shall be entitled
to vote under this article he shall be
able to read and write out on dicUa-
tion any section of the Constitution
OF MARYLAND, or he shall have paid for
two preceding years State and county
or city taxes amounting to at least
5 for each year, unless he was en-
titled to vote in one of the United
States on January l. 1867, or at some
time prior thereto, or unless he is a
legitimate lineal descendant of some
person who was entitled to vote in
one of the States CT the United States
on January |, 1867, or at some time
prior thereto. No property or educa-
tiOnal qualification shall be required
of persons entitled to vote in one of
the United States prior to January,
1867, or any lineal legitimate descend
ants OF such persons.
Mr.. Bryan said that he modelled the
amendment mainly after the North
Carolina 'grandfather's clause, elm
mating the permanent registration
list, because he thought any perma-
nent registration list would lead to
abuse, and leaving out the poll-taX
feature, because the Declaration of
Rights forbids any poll tax in the
State

ONE LOCOMOTIVE LIFTED TO TRACK.
The Second Engine of Everett Wreck
To Re Rescued To-day.

The Second Engine of Everett Wreck
To Re Rescued To-day.
The report that the two engines
wrecked at Everett tunnel would not
be reclaimed by the Baltimore &
Ohio a rumOr which has attained eX-
tended circulation, is without foun-
datiOn in fact. for already one of the
dismantled and battered Iron horses
is in the Piedmont shops undergoing
the process of rebuilding, while the
other, the 1864, will be lifted to the
track today and taken to Piedmont.
The 1864 is at present lying on her
side one hundred feet down the bank,
and seemingly out of commission for
all time to come But with Il past
master to solve this problem in the
person of Edward J. Napier, the vete-
Ohio, it is certain of solution. In
fact, MIR. Napier has agreed not only
to raise the locomotive, but not to
block the main track more than thirty
minutes.
His plan is first to turn the engine
on her drivers and then to build an
incline, for the engine is beyond the
reach of the arm of the steam crane,
and cannot be lifted by the crane.
But by the aid of the incline and
blocks and chains, the misshapen mon
ster can and will be dragged to the
main track.
Mr. Napier has been with the Balti-
more x Ohio for the past twenty-one
years. Previous to that he was a
sailor and there acquired experience
and instruction which has been vastly
beneficial to him since He enjoys
the reputation OF being one of the
best wreckmasters in the country and
when there is a peculiarly trying
wreck TO clear, his services are of the
greatest Importance He will raise
the 1864 this morning.

CHRISTMAT GIFTsFOR CUMBERLAND.
Tuscarora Oil Company Hoping for Bis
Gusher in the Near Future.

Tuscarora Oil Company Hoping for Big
Gusher the Near Future.
While the subject of Christmas gifts
is engrossing the attention of the
general public of this city, the direc,
tors of the Tuscarora Oil Company,
which is sinking a well in the Mar
rows in search of gas or oil, hope to
present to the city on or about Christ
mas Day gas ornoiliwell, which will
be a gusher of! the most pronounced
sort. No Christmas gift would be
more acceptable, for none could hard
ly be more beneficial to the city than
a gas well, which would provide a
supply of natures greatest fuel for
use in the homes and the industries
of Cumberland and which would
mean the location of several large
manufacturing plants in the city.
Nor would an oil producer he scarcely
less beneficial. 1t, too, would bring
increased wealth and more people,
and would be a welcome addition to
Cnmberland's many resources.
But in the meantime the drill in
the Tuscarora is steadily pushing
itself down towards the center of the
earth and to the region of gas and oil.
1t has attained a depth of 2,235 feet
and is yet in solid rock, with no sign
of the coveted Trenton rock or oil
sand. However, the members of the
company are hopeful of great strike
and it is their ambition to make Cum
berland Christmas present of one
of the best gas wells in the country

SENATOR GORMAN as the leader of
the minority in the Senate has assum-
ed an attitude that is VIGOROUSLY
negative. His plan is to attack any
measure introduced by the Republi-
cans, be it good, bad or Indifferent
and to divert the whole course of
public affairs to the single purpose of
making campaign capital. If his en-
nifty to the Isthmian canal continues,
however, he will discover that the
American people will not sanction

pottunity to cut an inter-oceanic wa
terway by the shortest and cheapest

PROFIT

The matter of feed is Of
tremendous importance to the
farmer, Wrong feeding is
oss, Right feeding is profit.
The up-to-date farmer knows
what to feed his COWS to get
the most milk, his pigs to get
the most pork, his hens to
get the most eggs. Science.
But how about the children?
Are they fed according to
science, a bone food if bones
are soft and undeveloped, a
flesh and muscle food if they
are thin and weak and blood
food if there is anemia?
SCOTS Emulsion is a mixed
food; the Cod Liver Oil in it
makes flesh, blood and muscle,
the Lime and Soda make bone
and brain. 1t is the standard
scientific food for delicate
children.

Present Market Conditions

Receipts Of corn at this point will not be as
large this week as they were last. from pres
ent indications. The inspection yesterday
amounted to thirty-three cars. as compared
with thirty-six cars for the corresponding day
last week. The inspection for Monday and

cars OF corn were inspected here last week. or

probably will show an increase this week. but
1t will be smaller than that shown by the Board
of Trades statement Saturday.
The severe cold weather up to yesterday morn
ing is the main cause for the decreasing re-
ceipts of corn this week, it is thought, for
prices are on the advance and farmers are
selling just as literally. if not more so. than
they were a week or so ago. And the corn is
getting into better condition for the market all
the time. too. The milder weather may tend
to make the receipts larger tomorrow and Sat-
urday.
Public stocks Of wheat here will decrease again
this week. All of the mills have not been run
ming full time and they are not grinding as much
as they did two or three weeks ago. so the de-
crease in the wheat stocks this week will proba-
bly, be disproportionately small in comparison
with the receipts. There has been no wheat in
