ACard From MIR. w. n. Harline,

in Reply to Supervisor Self.

Mr.. EDITOR: In yours Of last
week over the signature of Mr.. D.
P. Self, appears an article in which
there are some statements 60 put
as to be absolutely false. I, as
Cashier Of The farmers Bank,
wish to correct these statements.
/. AS to the Supervisors war
rant being turned down by the
farmers Bank",: l wish to say
that these warrants are not drawn
upon any bank but as everybody
knows, are drawn on the Treasur-
or Of the county, and are nearly
always taken up by the banks for
the accommodation of the Treas
urer. This saves the Treasurer
writing check for each warrant.
The farmers Bank has always
paid these warrants when present
ed unless it had instructions from
the County Treasurer not to pay
them.
About the first of October 1904,
Sifs l remember correctly, I asked
Ire .surer C. M. Williams if be
had the money to pay the Super
visor's warrants being drawn at
the October meeting. He answered
that he did not have the money

GuSeuelu, -. ".
Dear Sir: Two years ago, Mr..
Grant Smith, Erie, Pa, painted
three frame houses, and the wood
work Of a brick house.
The painter estimated $116.50
for the paint, lead-apd-oil.
He bought Devoe $97. 40 and re-
turned $11.60. Saved $31.1O on
the paint.
Don't know the cost of the
work. By the rule, the saving of
labor would be from $50 to 800.
On all, from so to $120.
This is the tale, as it comes from

The scarcity of timber, together
with the steady increase in the
mileage of railroads, make it diff
cult for them to obtain wood cross
ties in many sections. Some Of
the roads are adopting steel ties
that cost two dollars each. They
last indefinitely, however, which
makes them really cheaper in the
end. Thirteen steel ties weigh q

ALL THOSE RESPONSE BILE FOR
THE TERRIBLE DISASTER
ARE DEAD. A.
THE IMPACT WAS FEARFUL
DEAD AND MANGLED MEN ARE
SCATTERED 'ALoNG THE
TRACK.
S3 ~ s..zl

Baltimore, June 20. - Twenty-Five
persons were killed in wreck on the
Western Maryland railroad near
Patapsco. The list of dead is likely to
be increased from among those griev-
ously mangled.
All the dead were employees of the
railroad returning to their homes in
the small towns along the railway to
spend Sunday. The train, which was
No. S passenger, west-bound, carried
large number of passengers, all the
workmen as could do so went into the
baggage car, the remainder of the
gang of thirty-five finding places on
the platform between the mail and
baggage cars and between the latter
and the tender.
Orders Were Disregarded.
In the neighborhood of Patapsco
station. about eight miles from West
minister, the Western Maryland has
many curves. and that just west of the
bridge crossing the Patapsco river is a
sharp one. An extra freight made up
Of heavy coal and provision cars, was
running east. 1t should have taken a
siding to allow No. to pass. Such
were the orders. Why they were dis
regarded will never be known for all
those who should have seen that they
were obeyed are dead.
The passenger train was running at
speed of thirty miles an hour and
the freight was making good time.
Just west of the bridge they came to-
gether with terrific force, the three
engines being piled on one another
The fearful impact drove the pas
senger tender into the baggage car
and demolished it and the mail car.
Along the track on both sides were
scattered dead and
FrightfuiIy ManeIed Men, i
these latter more fortunate than
those who had been in the baggage car
and on the engines, for most of them
were still pinioned in the wreckage
out of the immediate reach of helping
hands.
Heartrending shrieks from the in
jcred quickly brought to the scene the
inhabitants of all the farm houses
near by. Farmers wives and daugh-
tiers made bandages of their clothing
and household linen and worked he,
roically amid the blood and CRIME.
Medical assistance was received from
Westminster and later a relief train
from Baltimore. carrying physicians
and supplies. AS fast as they could be
taken from the wreckage the dead
were placed aboard the train from
Westminster and taken to that town
and Union Bridge. The more serious.
~ injured were brought to this city.
