Arrested on a Serious Charge.

George Cobarth, wanted at
Germantown, this county. for an
alleged felonious assault upon
Miss Rose Holly on August 10Th,
was arrested Monday afternoon
at Brunswick, Md. He was
brought back to Montgomery
County that night by Sheriff
Williams. When arrested Co.
barth was about to leave the
State.
In a statement made to the
Sheriff, Cobarth, who is "a years
old and has two married children,
admitted that he took the woman
into his room and kept her there
all night. He said that the
woman was drunk, and that he
was himself under the influence
of liquor. He declared that the
woman had bottle of whisky
with her. He said she seemed to
he willing to remain there, and
that no felonious assault was
committed. He says the state
ment of Miss Holly is untrue.
The statement of Miss holly,
who lives in Washington, is that
she was feeling i'll and took a
draught of some kind to relieve
her. She says she knew nothing
more until she found herself in
Cobarth's cabin and that he
treated her shamefully.

at Twenty-Third Street,
New York City.

All passenger trains of the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad to
and from New York City now
have direct ferry connection with
23rd Street Terminal, in addi.
ton to Liberty Street; the South
Ferry Terminal having been dis
continued.
Twenty-third Street is the most
popular terminal of the great me
tropolis because the convenience

ping district. In the recent Re.
modelling of the terminal build
ing a glass rooted canopy was
constructed fifty feet wide, under
which the cross town cars of
14th, 2Sth and goth Street lines
pass, so that passengers are pro-
tected from the weather leaving
the ferry house, and also avoid
the annoyance of street traffic.
All baggage destined to New
York City will be delivered to
23rd Street unless distinctly
marked "Liberty Street." or
otherwise.
A complete electric cab service
has also been established for the
transportation of passengers and
baggage at very reasonable rates.
The Importance of 23rd Street

FREDERICK AND MIDDLE
TOWN ROAD SOLD.
Current Rumor Has it That
Trolley Line Has Changed
Hands. New Owners
Not Known.

1t was generally rumored about
town on Wednesday last, that
the Frederick and Middletown
Electric Railway had been sold,
but the identity of the new
owners remains a profound secret
to the public.
For some time past it has been
known that an organized effort
has been made to obtain a con-
trolling interest in the stock of
the road.
A pooling of stock was made
some time ago among the stock
holders and directors, and the
combination resisted all efforts
to get the majority of the stock
up to the present time. If this
road is in other hands this ele
ment has had much to do with it.
AS to the new owners some say
that the stock was bought on the
inside, and that simply a reor
ganization will be made. Others
think that the Wabash bought
the road to save buying the right.
Of-way as far as Middletown.
This could hardly be as this
road could not use the present
route of the trolley line for a
steam railroad without extensive
changes, which would cost as
much as a new survey and prop.
erty rights.
1t is also reported that the ne W
ownels are the promoters of the
Baltimore and Frederick Electric
II ilway.
1t is claimed that notwith-
standing negotiations for the sale
of the road on what is said to
have been advantageous terms,
were made during the past
month, as a matter of fact the
road was practically sold last
June, the first settlement to be
made in October. Rumor has it
that all the stockholders will
share alike, and that the price
to be paid will be- between forty.
five and fifty.
You can pay your money and
take your choice. If the road
has actually been sold the iden-
tity Of the new owners will be
known in few days.

THE BABY SHOW.
Complete Success of the Chill
drens' Carnival at the Fair
Grounds, Given by the
Frederick City Hos,
pital Guild.

Yesterday afternoon was a
great occasion for the children
and the grown ups at the Fred
erick Fair Grounds, the attrac.
ton being the Baby Show and
Carnival. gotten up by the Fred
erick City Hospital Guild, fol-
the benefit of that institution. 1t
was as completely successful as
it was entirely unique, and the
large crowd that witnessed the
affair certainly received full value
for their money.
As announced last week, the
mem bers of the Guild, composed
of over one hundred ladies, who
take an active interest in the
welfare of the Frederick City
Hospital, originated the clever
idea of holding a childrens' car
nival at the Fair Grounds at
which prizes would be given for
various groups of entries, COM
posed entirely of babies and chill
dren This EN- braced the latest
baby, handsomest dressed baby,
the oldest baby carriage, the best
decorated baby carriage. the best
cOstumed boy and girl riding a
bicy Gle, prize for twins of vario us
ages, the best decorated pony
cart, and so on throughout a
long list OF course the prettiest
baby was barred, as all of them
would have gotten the prize, or
else the luckless judges would
have been mobbed. But much
interest conferred ON the contest
and over two hundred entries
were classed up to the time of the
parade.
The grounds were crowded with
people, many coming from quite
a distance to see the show.
Before the parade dancing was
held in the Exhibition Building
from one O'Clock until four, when
the carnival proper began.
1t was most attractive sight
and it is seldom that one sees so
many interesting youngsters in
one lot. All kinds and conditions
of babies were there, from the
tenderest years up to ten aud six
teen. Some walked, some had
baby carriages wheeled by young
boys and girls gaily costumed,
others had pony carts and others
had little boys and girls double
and tandem, drawing tiny carts
in which were seated the dearest
little bits of humanity, arrayed
in the cutest dresses, decorated
with a profusiOn of flowers and
looking as sweet as could be.
We 60 to press before the
prizes were awarded, but there
were enough to go around, most of
them the gifts of our merchants
who took a most active interest
in the affair.
The judges were all strangers
and so the awards we're completely
unbiased by any local favOrites.
1t was a complete success in every
way.
The following ladies, members
of the Hospital Guild have charge
of the details of the affair and to
them is due much Of the credit for
the successful termination of the
picturesque baby pagent:
Mrs. VIM. Mullinix, Mrs. Geo.
OFT. Mrs. Gertrude Thomas, Miss

sizes. With these were associated
other ladies who in each depart
ment rendered much assistance.
