RefrigeratOrS

In selecting your Re-
frigerator you should take
into consideration the pre-
serving features and the
circulation of air. In order
to properly keep proyis-
ions in cold storage the
circulation must be dry,
thus carrying off tn e
odors over the ice and
purifying the air before
it again reaches the pro-

Was 4 Lucky Calamity.

As time passes Il becomes more and
more evident that the big fire OF two
years ago was a lucky calamity for
Baltimore. In two days IL cleared
away acres and acres Of ancient, tum-
ble-down buildings that In the ordi.
nary course OF events might have OBJ
structed the progress OF the city for
years. II awakened enterprise; II
opened the way for new ideas and
new men; II aroused the city to the
need for general municipal house
cleaning and It provided an opportu-
nifty TO widen narrow stress. to i'm
prove useless docks and to do other
things. True enough. a great many
Baltimoreans were ruined by the nre
and their fate excites sympathy. but
. great many more in the two years
that have passed have profted. To
day Baltimore is the better for that
terrible Sunday--more alert. more
modern, more prosperous and more
progressive-Baltim Herald.

was carried bodily to the poll box. On
returning to his carriage Mr.. Meredith

The people in and around these cities
are to have an opportunity OF seeing the
great Adam Forepaugh and Sells Bro
TIERS combined shows. Since last seen
in this part Of the country this great Ell
terprise has grown to such an extent
that it is much the largest circus in the
world; and it has been so greatly impro
we'd that it stands above comparison with
any other similar form Of entertainment.
One million dollars was spent Oh the
parade alone this season, for the purpose
of making it complete departure from
old liues. 1t is an absolutely new idea
in the way Of street spectacles; longer
than any other and not one thing in 1t
that can be seen anywhere else. In it
alone are 1900 people, 800 horses and
more than half the elephants in Ameri-
ca.
The performances under the main tent
is without doubt the greatest over seen
| in America. 1t il made up almost en-
tirely of European acts never before
seen in this country. The climax Of the
great program is an automobile somer-
set, performed by young French wO-
man, who rides from the dome down a
steep track in heavy machine to with
in few feet OF the ground, where a
sharp upward curve in TIE tramway

and the bold marauders escaped
with $4,000 in money. The men
were very bold, and for nearly
four hours remained in the bank
endeavoring to blow the safe. It
required nine charges to enter
the safe. In the meantime the
citizens exchanged shots with
them.
The deputy sheriff stood across
the street and shot at the bank
front with a shotgun. The shot
struck the window, but the thick
glass did not break merely rat
tied off like so many hail. An
other lrave (?) citizen, armed
with a rifle, saw what he thought
was one of the robbers creeping
towards him. He ordered the
man to halt, but he did not and
the citizen took to his heels.
