THoRoUGHFARE NECK, October A.
The Flemlng's Landing cannery shut
down last Friday after a most success
full season. The Bohemian help left
early Saturday morning for their
homes in Baltimore. Growers speak
highly of the fair treatment accorded
them by the management of the can

cannery has been in operation, with a
yield of about fifty tons.
Complaint is being made against the
bridges in Thoroughfare Neck which
were rendered in a bad condition by
the recent heavy rain storms, and
which the Road Commissioners have
failed to repair. Sunday evening
Homer Hudson son of W. D. Hudson
near Clayton while returning home,
ran into one of the bridges between
Rothw ellis corner and Walkers School
house and not only had a narrow
escape with his life. but had his
team demolished. The bridge only
partially covered the ditch and in at
tempting to pass by another team
coming IN opposite direction, the
wheels Of his team only struck por-
tion of the bridge and plunged into
the ditch. Mr.. Hudson was thrown
but Fortunately escaped with only few
bruises.
Last Sunday was missionary day at
Friendship Church, and a goodly col
lection was taken. Pastor Chandler

health of the daughter of my people re-
covered?"

Chamberlain $ Cough Remedy.

No one who is acquainted with it's
good qualities can be surprised at the
great popularity of Chamberlain g
Cough Remedy. It not only cures
colds and grip effectually, but prevents
these diseases from resulting in pneu-
monia. It is also certain cure for
Group. Wooping cough is not danger
ous when this remedy is given. 1t
contains no opium or other harmful
substance and may be given as conf
IDENTIFY to baby as to an adult. It is
also pleasant to take. When all of
these facts are taken into consideration
it is not surprising that people in
foreign lands,- as we'll as at home,
esteem this remedy very highly and
very few are willing to take any other
after having once used it. For sale
by all druggists.

The motive power of the Delaware
division of the Pennsylvania Railroad
Company has been increased by the
addition of another of the big loco
motives known as the E2A type.
The engine has four driving wheels
with trailers under the cab and a four
wheel pony truck. This type of loco
motive is the largest used on the Penn
sylvania lines. They are used on all
the divisions of the company except
the Maryland division. They will be
used there when the new bridges, now
in the course of construction, are
completed. They are too heavy for
the old bridges. Within the past year,
or since these engines have been intro
duced on the Delaware division they
have figured in several wrecks in every
one of which either the fireman or en-
gineer was killed. They have been
called the "Hoodoo jumbo engines
by the railroaders.

While Mr.. W. d. Hudson a we'll
known farmer of this vicinity was in
Smyrna Saturday night, some one
took his team which was hitched in
front of the residence of his father A,
l.. Hudson Sr. and went off with if.
In order to get home Mr.. Hudson was
obliged to hitch up his fathers team.
The next morning the team was located
at the farm of James d. Pratt near
Brynzion where it had been found the
night before by his hired man and
taken under shelter. The horse when
found showed every appearance of
having been driven hard and the sup
position is that some colored men had
taken it and driven to Friendship
Church and let it loose. No clue had
been found as to who the parties were
but should Mr.. Hudson get up with
the guilty parties he will make an
example of them.

BOARD OF TRADE
WILL MOVE SOON
INTO GERMANIA BANK
WILL GO INTO NEW QUARTERS AS
SOON AS THEY ARE READY.

pecisiOn to Accept New Quarters
Reached Mt a Meeting Yesterday.
New Quarters TO Consist of Two
Rooms on Second Floor at North
west Corner of Bank Building.
VIII BE Given Rent Free Until
oct. 1, Then Cost $50 a Month.
The Board of Trade will move into
the Germania Bank building as soon
as quarters can be prepared for its re-
ception.
This was decided by an overwhelm-
ing vote at a meeting of the members
of the Board of Trade held yesterday
morning. About forty odd members
we're present, and with the exception of
five, voted for the change.
Several quarters had been under con-
sderation. but the sentiment was so
nearly unanimous in favor of the Ger
mania Bank rooms that none of the
others were mentioned, except in the
report of the committee that had been
instructed to investigate the matter.
The resolution that the organization
change its quarters, passed some time
ago was read. then the report of the
Floor Committee. which had been in
structed to investigate the matter of
new quarters, and this was followed by
a letter from the agent of the Board of
Trade building, offering to make any
changes and improvements within rea-
son, in the present rooms, If they be
retained. Then came the reading of a
petition, signed by some siXty-eight
members of the Board of Trade, ask
ing that the quarters in the Germania
Bank building be taken.
Germania Banks Offer.
This stated that three rooms, two of
which could be made into one, on the
second floor of the building could be
secured at a rental of $50 month,
light and heat included, and that they
could be used rent free until Oct. l.
Mr.. Walter Coney promptly moved
that the offer be accepted, but Presi-
dent John r. Young, of the Board of
Trade, offered as an amendment to this
motion that the present quarters be re-
tanned provided they be put in first
class condition.
The amendment met with a second
and then Mr.. James Earle, Jr., made a
short talk in favor of retaining the
present rooms, arguing that the 1mpor-
lance of the Board of Trade made it
fitting that it should be located on the
principal business street, and on the
first floor of whatever building it oc-
oupied. Mr.. ]. F. Cooper Myers de-
clared that such objections were with
out weight and Mr.. William B. Still
we'll also spoke in favor of the move.
Majority Wanted to Move.
The amendment was hopelessly lost
when put to the vote and the original
move that the organization go into the
bank building. was carried by quite as
decisive a vote.
The new rooms to be used by the
Board OF Trade are situated on the
second floor of the bank building at
the northwest corner. The main room
is 15xS6 feet with a 13-foot ceiling,
while the second room, which will be
for the use of the directors. is 16x1S
feet. The change is one that will please
large number of the members of the
Board of Trade, as they now occupy
offices in the bank building.

"THE POWER, OF FAITH
TO SAVE HIGH AND LOW"
Was Subject of Special Sermon bs
Rev. j. i. Oxford.

Rev. j. i. Oxford.
From the subject 1.-The Power of
Faith to Save the Highest and the
Lowest" Rev. j. l. oxford last night
preached another strong evangelistic
sermon.
The service was attended by a large
congregation and at the conclusion of
the sermon, one rose and asked for
baptism. This makes twenty who have
united with the church during the
course of the meetings.
Faith" said Rev. Mr.. oxford, "can
save the highest and the lowest. No
limit is placed on its power. 1t can
work in the mansion of the wealthiest,
and in the most degraded and fallen
howell; it can save the weak and it can
save the strong.
"On faith rests our salvation. We
must believe If we are to be saved. To
the jailer's question the Apostle Paul
answered, Believe on the Lord Jesus
Christ and thou shalt be saved In
that answer he answered once for all
time. the question What shall / do to
be saved?' BY faith we must come to
Christ, by faith we must cling to him,
and by faith in Him we shall be final
ly saved.
Biblical history is filled with Incl
dent after incident of those who were
saved by faith. Even the fallen Ra-
hab, through her faith, did not perish.
David, Abraham, Joseph, Joshua,
Esther. Daniel, and many others might
be mentioned who, in Old Testament
times, were saved through their faith
and with themselves saved their peo-
Piles.
with the coming of Christ new
force was given to faith. There is not
one incident on record of a man who
believed in Christ, who kept his faith
to the end, who was not finally saved.
On the cross the. degraded thief,
through his faith in the one dying be-
side him was saved. The learned and
brilliant Paul, through his faith in the
voice that spoke to him from the heav-
ems, was saved himself, brought hosts
to Christ, and earned for himself a
place among the greatest of the apos-
ties
Through faith Peter walked on the
waters. The instant he doubted he be-
gan sinking. The high and the low
the rich and the poor, the great and
the small the morally upright and the
morally fallen, have, through their
faith in Jesus Christ, been saved eter-
nally. And to-day faith can save us.
be our condition what it may. We
need only to believe on the Lord Jesus
Christ. to put our faith in him, and we
shall be saved. He Himself has prom
ised it."

Judge speer VIII Consider IL mt
Some Future Date.

Some Future Date.
Macon, June 7.-Immediately before
adjournment of the United States
Court late this evening, Judge Speer
presiding, the case of the McCaw
Manufacturing Company against Ma
tional Bank Examiner Albertson, which
was set for yesterday. was postponed
by Judge Speer somewhat indefinitely.
When the case was brought up a pc
tition was presented by the McCaw
Company, asking that Receiver Corbin
of the Plant estate be ordered to pro-
duce certain papers which are neces-
sary to the McCaw Company for the
trial of the case against Receiver AL
bertson.
1t was claimed that Receiver Corbin
had in his possession many clearing
house balance sheets. deposit slips of
the McCaw Company and other papers,
showing the amount of the business
done with l. c. Plants Son Bank from
Jan. IA to May IA and Judge Speer
passed an order requiring Receiver Cor
bin to produce these papers The Nc
Cav Company claims that these papers
are needed to show that money paid
the bank was used to clear balances
with the clearing house and that it is
necessary to have them as evidence.
Owing to the Mercer commencement,
Judge Speer will hold no court to-mor-
row, and it is probable that the McCaw
case will not come up for several days.
