Surprise Party.
In honor Of her birthday, about thirty
Of the Thurmont friends of Miss Nellie
Beard together with several of her friends
from Middletown gave her very COM
plete surprise on Friday evening last.
The party met at the home Of Miss
Mary Root and when, by a pre-arranged
plan, Miss Beard was known to be away
from her home calling, the jolly company
of friends marched to Miss Beard home
and took complete possession. A messen-
ger was sent for Miss Beard and the par
ty settled down to an absolute quiet to
make the surprise as complete as posi-
bic. Though completely surprised upon
entering the parlors, Miss Beard by her
ease of manner was not
the least embarr assed and most cordially
received her friends:and made every one
present feel perfectly at home.
Informal games were INDUCED in by
the entire company and wit and repartee
was very much in evidence.
About eleven o'clock refreshments
were served by the committee In very
tasteful manner and the event was thor
oughly enjoyed by every one present.

Even with such a handicap, there is
profit in the business. 1t may easily
be figured what that profit would be
If the legislation here spoken of could
be enacted. .a- ,.1. - MI
Every resident in the northwest
now pays a tribute to the Standard
Oil Co. in the form of excessive cost
for gasoline and kerosene. This tri-
butte would he wiped out through the
operation of Representative Mar
shall's scheme.
AS showing something of the. rami-
fications of alcohol in manufacturers
generally, and how those =, manufac-
lures would be stimulated through
this legislation, it may be said that in
addition to entering into many aka
loids and fine chemicals, alcohol is
used in the making of stiff hats, silk
hats, women's and children's straw
hats, smokeless powder, illuminate of
mercury, cartridges, artificial silk,
picture frames and holdings, polished
metal goods including hardware, brass
beds, gas and electric fixtures, lamps,
brass musical Instruments, electric
fans, bird cages, clocks, toys, coal tar
dyes, celluloid, nitro celluloise, pho
tographic supplies, electric general
'ors and motors, lead pencils, watches
and clocks, oleostearene, automobiles,
power boats, stationary engines, fur
niture and other polished woods,
passenger and street cars, ,chloroform,
burial baskets, whips, trunks, shoe
dressing, fireworks, shoes, emery
wheels, pipes, umbrella and cane
handles, f11sil oil, transparent soap,
and hundreds of other articles.
All the alcohol thus used pays the
revenue tax of $2.07 a gallon, and it
will be seen that If this tax can be
removed, the cost Of manufacture will
he reduced, and Europe, which now
finds market here for many of these
products, will keep these products at
home. La
Representative Marshall is enthusi-
astic over the outlook. 2

It is pointed out that in walking or
running the arms and legs produce
balancing" like that Of the reciprocal
ing and revolving parts Of locomo-
tive. The movements of the legs react
upon the trunk and tend to rotate it in
alternate directions about a vertical
axis. But the swinging Of the arms,
each in unison with the opposite leg,
produces an opposing mechanical cou-
pie, the effect Of which is to rotate the
trunk in the other direction, thus bal
ancing, in part at least, the rotating
action of the legs.

GAPON
is HAN GED.
Russian RevOIutiOniStS Said TO
Have Executed Priest Leader.
Confessed 10 TreaChery.

LONDON, April 24-An e%xtraordina-
ry story from Russia asserts that Fa-
ther Gapou was hanged secretly by
four revolutiOuists who overheard him
admit that he was spying on his for
mei revolutionary colleagues in behalf
Of the Russian police.
1t is stated that Father GapOn's
death was brought about through his
attempt to have a revolutionary friend
turn spy.
The reyOlutionists, having set him
down as a traitor. considered him too
contemplate to put TO death, but plan
ned to kidnap and force from him a
signed confession, which it was in
tended should be published.
His efforts, however. TO make others
turn spies sealed his fate. Before exc
cutting him, however, it was deter
mined to get evidence against him that
would satisfy the laboring classes Of
his peaching.
He was accordingly invited to a villa
in the country. where a conversation
that took place was overheard by four
laborers who were members of the
revolutionary party and who were con
cealed in an adjoining room. Gapon
was told that he would be exposed and
that the fact that he was a spy would
be published.
Il should deny it," Gapon replied.
y one would believe it,"
Il must call a Witness" said the
other.
Gapon laughed, saying, what wit
nesses can you CALI
Then a door was flung open. and Ca
pom was confronted by four men who,
he realized, We're not only witnesses.
but judges and executioners as well.
The men, Infatuated by what they had
heard, grabbed him and hanged the
unfrocked priest and former leader to
a chandelier in the sitting room.
A st. Petersburg dispatch says that
there is no clew to the whereabouts of
Father Gapon. whose mysterious dis
appearance was announced some days
ago.
Friends of Father Gapon claim to
have information that the ex-priest has
fallen not into the hands Of the revolu-
tionists, but into those of the holy
synod. which condemned him for for
saking the priestly orders to indefinite
Imprisonment in II of the many
gloomy monasteries used by the church
as prisons. The most famous OF these
is the monastery of SolovietZ. on an
island In White AXE i'm tho far north
where the Metropolitan Phillip was
imprisoned and killed in the sixteenth
century.

SERVICE TO
Get Mr.. YOUNG.
Unofficial Announcement Says David
Young Will Take Charge of Troll
ley Operating Department.

NEWARK, APR. 24.-Unoficial an
nouncement was made today that an
important change is soon to be made
I connection with the control of the
ijerating department of the trolley
ystems of the Public Service Corpo-
alton. 1t is understood that negotia-
ions have been concluded for the re-
N of David Young as general man
ger of all the lines operated by the
ompany.
Mr.. Young was formerly first vice
resident and general manager of the
North Jersey Street Railway Com
pany. When the lines of that COM
pany were merged with the Jersey
City, Hoboken & Paterson lines, of
which Mr.. Young was also general
and with other lines, nota-
bly, the Elizabeth. Plainfield & Cen
trail Jersey and the Orange & Passaic
Valley, Mr.. Young retired.
Mr.. Young will probably divide
the management of the lines of the
Public Service with Vice President
Chahrles A. Sterling, who will devote
his attention to improving and ex-
tending the present systems. Mr..
Young will attend TO the operating.
The deal by which the services of
Mr.. Young are to be secured is said
to be an outcome of the recent move
by which new capital was secured to
the Public Service through the bank
ing house of Winthrop & Co., and the
United Gas Improvement Company
of Philadelphia.
Mr.. Young is classed among the
most expert and successful operators
of trolley systems in the United
States.

BOTH FOOD
AND MEDICINE.

We like best to call SCOTS
Emulsion a f~ood-medicine. 1t
is a term that aptly describes
the character and action of
our Emulsion. More than a
medicine-more than a food,
yet combining the vital prin-
ciples of both. 1t is for this
reason that SCOTS Emulsion
has a distinct and special
value in all wasting diseases.
There is nothing better to
remedy the troubles of i'm

health in children. The action
of SCOTS Emulsion is just as

old FREEH0LDERS
PLAN SOCIAL TIME
The Retired Board Will Form Per-
manent 0rganizatiOn-Meeting
TO be Held May 5.

NEW BRUNSWICK, Apr. "a
The Board of Freeholders which pre-
coded the present board will be Or
ganized into a permanent social Or
ganization on the plan of the G. A. r.
The membership will be limited to
those who served in the board when it
disbanded, and the officers. AS these
pass away the board will diminish in
numbers until it finally disappears in
the course of nature. There are TWEEN
three surviving freeholders of that
board, one, Martin Cauley, having
passed away.
The meeting Saturday at which
this action was taken was held in the
freeholders' room in the court house.
Those present were former Freehold
ers De Hart, Stats, DUNCAN, Con-
cannon, O'Neill, FELTON,, Welsh, Rush
err, Bennett, Tappen, Draper and Cox,
and former Clerk Clayton.
Mr.. De Hart said the meeting had
been called in pursuance of a resolu-
ton at the final meeting of the old
board to keep alive the boards social
organization. A committee was APP
pointed then to bring the board to-
gether at a suitable time for such ac-
ton.
Mr.. De Hart was made temporary
chairman and Mr.. Clayton temporary
clerk. Mr.. Clayton suggested the Or
ganization above outlined, which
seemed to meet with general APPROX
al.
Word was received from former
F~reeholders Glenn, Kroeger and Van
denbergh, former Auditor Pownall,
and former Collector Serviss, Ok
pressing approval of the proposed Or
ganization. Mr.. De Hart said he
thought the expressions received war;
ranted those present to go ahead and
take steps for permanent organiza-
ton.
Mr.. O'Neill said he thought the or
ganization should take the form of
an annual excursion such as the
board always had when in existence.
Nobody objected to this, but Mr.. Dun
