Big Merger of Trolley Lines
Said to be on Hand,

The belief prevails IN well in
formed circles that wltiin a year
details will have brru worked
for a merger OF the electric rail
ways, in operation and projected
in Baltimore City and seven
counties of Mary land. which will
bring under one management
about $50 miles of single track i,
and provides that city with elcc-
trio lines to all Important towns
in the State within radius of
80 miles. The United Railways
aud Electric Company will be the
most important link in the pro
posed chain of electric llueS, fur
niShing about 100 miles of the
total of 800 miles which the new
company will control
The big confederation, it is said.
wifi include the following com
pauies:

Besides the foregoing, it is be
lleyed that the Baltimore and
Annapolis Short Line. which is
controlled by Alexander Brown
\ Sons, will eventually be in
cluded.
The Baltimore and Frederick
Electric Railway Company was
incorporated on January I, 1902.
with Il capital of 81 100000, and
about a year later this was in
creased to $4,000, 600 i line
was surveyed from Baltimore to
Frederick, which was shorter by
Is miles than the Western
Mars Land Rallro a. and az least
eight less thau the Baltimore and
Ohio'S route. Last >prlng the
company applied to the City
Council for permission to enter
the city, and at the time pro
posed 10 have liz terminal at
about Park Avenue and Mul
berry Street. Its franchise has
never been acted on.
The route selected by the com
/ pauy for the trolley line is IS.s
miles from Forest Pa,k to Fred
erlck, aad alDHt 13 from the pro-
/ posed terminal. There is al
ready a trolley line ~ operation
tom Frederick to liagerstown,
SO that should the line be built
from Baltimore it will be possible
for one to travel by trolley all the
way to Hagerstown. Mr.. James
+. Ingram Dr., is President OF
the company, the original iucor
poratorS Of which were MeSsrS.

Every boy ought to improve on
his father: every girl grow into a
nobler, gentler. more Self-denying
womauh0od than the mother. No
production of former types will
give the world the perfect types.
We know not where the Millen
ium is, as measured by distance
Of time; but we do know, and so
do you, that il is great way off
as measured by human growth
and expansion. We have no
such men and women yet, no age
has ever yet had any, as shall
stand on the earth in that age of
peace that will not come until
men are worthy of it,
Young men, Young women!
Don't let Your lives be failures.
Make the best Of what God has
given you. Let your gratitude
to Him for life and its noble en-
dOwmeuts, be exerted I'D full
devotion of will and thought and
strength to whatever work He
brings in His wise providence TO
your hand. Aud remember, that
it is only good and useful work
that he provides. Shun evil
wordsworth that harms your
ueighbor in any way, as you
would Shun the deadIieSt thing.
No true success ever comes from
evil work. II may bring a harvest
of golden apples and purple
grapes; but the apples will be
like those OF Sodom, full of bitter
ashes aud the grapes sour.

Humility Is a beautiful grace
in woman. Never put yourself
before other people. Let them
put you forward that their praise
may be voluntary.

"Catch the sunshine. don't be
grieving,' is the way the song OF
our childhood runs, and We have
found it much better to sing in
our soul than to grieve in our
heart True oft times the bur
deus and trials OF life pierce
Ike swift, flying arrow, but
how tie sting is alleyiated by
letting the sunshine in. Catch
it, absorb it. and it will Tighten
and warm and console.

HARRISON.
SOnlt time.

]. N. Harrison. who has been making his home at the Arcade Hotel for the past four months, died very suddenly Sunday after noon about four o'clock while seated in d chair in his room read ing newspaper. Dr. Frank Young. who happened to be in the hotel at the time calling on another patient, was quickly at his side but life was extinct.
 Mr. Harrison came here in Oe- tober with Mr..and Mrs. W. C. Craine, when tie latter was sent here to relieve Frisco agent Fur ", and 1t was learned that he had been making his home with Mrs. Craine's people for many years, not having any relatives of his own. Mr. Cranes railroad work took him to differest parts of the country and he and Mrs. Craine were always accompanied by Mr. Harrison. Mr. Harrison has been chrome sufferer from Bright's disease for number of years and this, no doubt, iS what  caused his death. He formerly resided in St. Louis and only re- turned from there | few days ago where he went to consult d ptysi- clan who has tended him for number of years. The remains were shipped to St. Louis Sunday evening for interment, being ae- companied by Mrs. Crane.
 AIr. Harrison had investments in St. Louis and is reputed to have been worth some S2o, o00. We understand by will lie left all of las property to Mrs. Craine and Her three sisters, who reside i'll St. Louis, but the bulk of it went to the former who has cared for him so long. He was about sixty years of age and was a tnem- Der of the Episeopalian church. He was very pleasant gentle man. and although retiring III his nature, those who knew him found in him much to admire.
