A TREMENDOUS LANDSLIDE.
Earth, Rocks, and Trees Fell on B. Q
0. Tracks and Greatly Delayed
Traffic.

Saturday evening about eight o'clock
hundreds of tons of earth, rocks and
trees buried the tracks of the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad near Everett's Tun-
mel, mile or two west of Bloomington,
when the mountain side above slipped
down without a moments warning,
catching ar eastbound helper engine
and almost completely covering it. The
engineer and fireman escaped from
their predica ment by jumping.
The engine being on the track ad-
joining the hillside acted as a shield to
some extent and prevented much of the
earth from going onto the adjoining
track a'.d thus kept the way open afte
the debris had been shoveled off.
All trains both east and west Satur-
day night were abandoned, being de-
toured over the tracks Of the Western
Maryland Railroad from Cumberland
on the cast and Grafton on the west.

Good People Are Directing to Play.

There is a good sized kick among the
better class of people Of this borough
over the coming of the play "A Break
for Liberty" that is billed for Donges
theatre for Saturday night, of this
week. The management of the play
announces with much gusto that it is
based upon the escape of the Biddle
Brothers from the Allegheny county
Jail few years ago, and that it fully
exploits the part that the jailer's wife
played in that escape. They consider
it play that is demoralizing and one
that will have bad effect upon the
minds of the young. A number Of the
authorities of nearby towns have re-
fused to allow the show to take place in
their bailiwicks, and Burgess Reed has
been requested to not allow it's produc-
ton here.
The above clipping taken from the
Meyersdale Republican of last week,
refers to the show which has been ad-
tertised to appear in Oakland on Fri
day evening of this week. Viewed from
the standpoint taken by our contem-
porary over in Pennsylvania the pro-
duction should be prohibited not only in
that State but in every section Of the
country. Such shows are not eleyat-
ing to the minds and morals of any COM
munity and we trust that in the near
future something may be done by legis-
lation or otherwise to drive all question
able productions from the stage.

To the Editor Of The Republican.
Through the columns Of your paper
Mrs. Jane Chadderton, widow Of the
late VIM. H. Chadderton, desires to ex-
press her deep and heartfelt gratitude
to all the kind friends of Deer Park and
her neighbors near her home. who so
nobly came to her bereaycd home and
with tears and sympathy tried to calm
her troubled soul, in this the saddest of
her earthly experience. For them all
she asks Heavens richest blessings for
their words of coincidence and kind min
istrations to a heart that no earthly
joys can ever heal, and with the fervent
prayer that she may meet them all in a
fairer cline than this, in a Land far
beyond the stars, where she hopes to
meet meet the one that was dearer to
her than any earthly treasure.
In connection with the above the
writer wishes to add his tribute of the
high regard and esteem he had for the
one that came to such an untimely end.
Il was the pleasure OF the one who
pens this humble tribute to the memory
of VIM. II. Chadderton, to say we had
known him for twenty-five or thirty
years, and in all those years,
never a jar to the pleasan
and social intercourse as neighbors and
friends. He at all times greeted me
with genial kindness and fraternal
cordially and his urbane manner made
him friends among all men of character
and worth, His high sense Of honor
and strict attention to business won for
him the confidence of the best people of
our county where he was known. His
word in business transactions was as
good as his bond Attentive to bust
ness and strict in his dealings, but lib
eral to all claims for charity, hospitable
in his home, presided over by his faith
fulscompanion, one of the neStest and
frugal matrons of this county

MARYLAND is WITHOUT DEBT.
In Fact Has a Balance on the Credi.
Side.

Annapolis, Nd, Jan. 15.-In his an
nual report for the fiscal year ended
September 80, submitted yesterday to
Governor Warfield, DR.. Gordon T. At
kinson, state comptroller, shows that
Maryland is not only practically without
public debt, but has a large balance
on the credit side of the ledger. GAS
matter of fact" says the Comptroller,
1.-THE premium on the Northern Central
Railway Company annuity of 81, 500, 600
would more than cancel the entire state
debt"
This condition in the States finances
was brought about by the sale of the
states stock in the Washington Branch
of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
Company, at price greater than was
thought by many it would ever bring.
Dr.. Atkinson's report thus handles this
transaction:
The gross debt of the state at the
close of the fiscal year ended September
80, 1905, was So, 526, 926.l On Septem-
Der 80, 1906, it was IS, 1877, 926, 10. The
net debt of the state on September 80,
1905, was S3,O87, 969.13, and the net
debt on September 80, 1906 was only
1888, 2O1.41.
No mention is made of the insane
asylum 81 per cent. loan of 100000.
This loan was cancelled by an exchange
Of the entire loan for part of the
states interest in the stock of the Bal
timore and Ohio Railroad Company in
April last. You will also find that the
Penitentlary 81 per cent. loan is reduc-
ed from $500, 200 to $248, 900 by like
exchange, while the consolidated per
cent loan of 1899 was reduced from So
40l, 926.13 to So, 253, 926.13 by like ex-
change.

THE LATE E. F. DR0EGE.
A Warm Personal Friend Contributes
A Memorial.

So much of merit, already widely
published upon the character of this
valued citizen and esteemed gentleman,
| beg space in your columns for this
additional notice from the standpoint of
a friend of more than three decades.
Mr.. Emil Frederick Droege was born
in Bremen, Germany, April Goth, 1889,
and died at Deer Park, Maryland, De-
cember Goth, 1906. Before attaining the
age of majority he emigrated from his
native country ana landed in the city of
New York in 1856, ready to embark in
the business world. But the ruling ele
ment of his mind and pursuit of better
health induced him to choose a rural
life, and after brief experience Of
three years in the American metropolis,
he settled in the year 1889 in the village
of Deer Park, then in Allegany but now
in Garrett county, Maryland, where he
built his home and established himself
for life. Here he identified himself in
no uncertain way with the best interest
and surest progress Of his village and
county and founded deeply in the public
estimate the reputation of an upright
and enterprising citizen. He was pre-
vailed upon to accept the appointment
and administer the functions of magis-
trate in the Deer Park district, and,
with a mind sound in the principles of
law and an accurate conception of jus
tice, his decisions were rarely if ever
reversed by the. higher courts in an adj
ministration Of twenty years, covering
many vexing and complex cases.
He read thoughtfully and informed
himself literally upon topics of public
concern, both foreign and domestic, but
at all times was particularly versed in
the happenings and erudition of the
German people. But the pressure and
excitement of passing affairs were not
allowed to infringe or lessen those high
er duties and observances of the chris
tian. The baptismal rites conferred
upon him in infancy openly before men
he caused to be confirmed in mature
manhood and lived in. reality a scion
that grew to fruitage in the Lutheran
Saith.
In his tastefully chosen and nationally
regulated home, commanding promi-
nence in the picturesque village and
salubrious climate of Deer Park, Mr..
Droege ever experienced the sweetest
pleasures sought by him in life His
family circle was one of delightful COM
panionship and mutual benefit, and
there he and his devoted wife, fixed
we'll and lastingly in the minds and
hearts of family of four sons and one
daughter those loftier principles highest
and ripest upon the parent tree. Hi;
oldest son, Albert, rose rapidly from
station to station in railroad progress tc
that of Division Superintendent of the
New York, New Haven and Hartford
railway system. One son is lawyer of
New York city and the other two sons
occupy places of trust and usefulness.

tsMuch of the teaching of history, as
well as all other. branches, depends upon
the teacher. Often l have heard
teachers exclaim, chow well school
went today" The secret of this is
that the teacher was interested in the
work and the pupils then could not help
being themselves interested.
