ShOestring Man.

His wares held forth in trembling hands,
An outcast on the pave he stands;
To passersby, the jostling clan,
He's just old Jones, the shoestring man.
His face-is drawn for lack of food'
And cold and want; the whole live brood
OF human ills the old man knows,
But never talks of aims or woes.
And yet this palsied being there
Deserves the love of brave and fair;
Although you scott, he wears crown.
I'll tell you how he wears that crown.
When Pickett's men, so fierce with hope,
At Gettysburg moved up the slope,
There on the ridge, with gun in hand,
In Northern blue Ben Jones did stand.
The march had bronzed his youthful
checks,
He had the eye that courage speaks;
His brown hands gripped the rifle stock,
Mid thousands more, to meet the shock.
Still on they came, that vast gray host,
The bravcst lives the South could boast,
And then there came the flames of hell
And with the flames the Southern yell.
The waiting North, it opened then
An awful hail on Pickett's mem
The Southern gray and Northern blue
Dyed waving wheat in colornew.
Men dropped in heaps, in mounds Of
slain,
Remorseless guns made mounds, again;
The feast Of Death. was spread that day,
The guests were clad in blue and gray.
The staetchers came and stretchers went;
At last, within the Surgeons tent,
In. bloodstained blanket, Jones was flung.
They dug some lead from his right lung.
They shipped him home to Northern hills,
His body raclsed with wounds and ills;
They did not call him faker then;
Twas Private Jones, a Sixth Corps man.
Oh, needless, needless sons of men,
When shall it come unto your ken
That palsied hand might once be still,
That under rags heart can feel?
You should ca!ute~tlis ragged soul
lie helped en,s.cp Youh cnurtrY whole,
And made it 81 mat you could Sd,
United States, or u. S. A.
That's right! Step up! Just buy his wares,
The act will help your evening prayers,
And when you pass this way again,
Why, stop and buy from Shoestring Ben.

az. well as the Board Of Directors, are
from .tations on the line of the. road, ex-
cepting two, one being from Middletown
and one from ,Myersville; bo.h points,
however, will contribute to the traffic of
the new road. It is important at this
point to call attention to the fact, no sal
aries are being drawn by any official of
the road. The directors from Frederick
are business men, interested in the new
line, because they expect on it's compile
ton to get better rates on the existing
lines and more prompt shipment by their
own line. 1t is, from all could learn, a
distinctly home road; everybody is inter-
ested in it's success. The few who are
not holders Of the stock are anxious for
the facilities that will be afforded by the
new road. Among these are to be found
many who claim they have been subject
ed to overcharges, or tardy service from
the roads now entering Frederick city,"
Mr.. Wrenshall makes this estimate of
income and expenses for the first ye lr:
NIoSS HlSoiiAS, poSocii5 eioJ YoosVooS SAooo
income, freight, $4,000; total, $50, QUO;
operating expenses, $40, 000; gross income

adds: ~ wnnlt however. Increase tile

from Washington to Gettysburg, the re-
salt Of the showing made by this, the
central portion of The system. The fa-
vorable result following the building ond
operating of this part will be an una'-
swerable argument for the binding of
the extension to Washington City and to
Gettysburg.

can say that amimprsssed with the val

property developer, also with the con-
sentative views and economical ideas Of

WHAT Is PORTLAND CEMENT.

Portland cement, according to the
description given by the board Of en-
gineers Of the United States Army,
one Of the most exarting authorities,
is the product obtained from the
heating or calcining upto incipient
fusion Of intimate mixtures, either
natural or artificial, of argillaceous
with calcareous substances the calcin-
ed product to contain at least IT
times as much OF lime, by weight, as
Of the materials which gives the lime
its hydraulic properties, and to be
finely pulverized after said calcination
and thereafter additions.or substitu-
tons for the purpose only regulating

certain properties Of technical import
ancc to. be allowable to not exceeding
! 2 pcr cent Of the calcined product.
/ This is a very brief definition, but
not very lucid to the lay mind. Ar
gillaceous lneans Of the nature-of clay;
consisting of or containing clay, nc.
cording to "WebstcTs Unabridged. !"
Calcareous refers to lime, usually the
carbonate. Portland cement is the
best grade of hydraulic cement a &C.
mcnt which will set and harden under
water and ON. which has ne effect.
Hydraulic cement is made of lime
stone rock in which there is a mix
turc"of clay, or, to put it more defin-
itcly, white clay.
In the mills of Pennsylvania, after
the rock is quarricd, it is crushed and
and ground to an impalpablc powder.
This powder is fed into rotary kilns,
where it is burned or .calcined at a
temperature exceeding 1900 degrees
Fahrenheit. This produces what is
known as cement clinkcr.. After this
| is cooled it is crushed and rcground
to an impalpable powder and trans
, ferred to storage tanks for seasoning.
, TO give an idea of the finencss to
which this material is ground it may
be said that the company manufact-
uring it guarantees that o5 per cent
will pass through sieve having 10, 600
meshes to the square inch. After the
addition of about 2 per cent OF plas-
ter of paris, ground equally fine, to
control its setting qualities, the &C.
ment becomes finished product.
From the time the rock is taken from
the quarry till the finished product
/ is placed in bags and barrels, the con-
veying is all done by machinery; and
thorough chemical mixture takes
place. Experienced chemists are con-
stantly in control, and the whole pro-
cess of manufact ure has been reduced
to an art;
The same company has mills in
Missouri, the character of the stone
used being about the same as in Penn
sylvania. This company began in
1892, with capacity in one small
plant OF $50 barrels day, while now
it turns out in it's different plants
more than 80, 900 barrels each twenty
four hours, or about 1000, 600 bar
rels yearly. This is Interesting, as
showing the rapid increase in the use
of this material for building purposes.
With the increase in the price OF lum-
Der, its use is likely to increase still
further. 1t is probable that, in.many
parts of'the country, the proper stone
Tor the manu'actur. OF hydl. ali, &C.
ment may be found, and profitable
industry may be built up Thomas
Edison has made the prediction that
the time will soon come when whole
houses will be constructed of cement,
walls, roofs, floors, everything, except
the windows and doors, at a cost far
below present building cost. Or
course, this would still further in
, crease the consumption of cement,
and would render such investigations
as are indicated by the questions of
this explanation wise and timely;
but it must be borne in mind that
expensive machinery is required and
expert supervision is needed to pro-
ducc q product that will pass muster.
1t is worth investigating.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
(FRoM OUR REGULAR CORRESPONDENT


WASHINGTON, d. c., MAY 18TH.
1t is not improbable. that scandal
will he added to the interest OF the
Jamestown Exposition which seems
to be falling lower in public favor
with each day that its gates are OPEN
cd. According to prevailing rumor
now the Exposition is in reality q
graft exposition and it would not be
surprising if some OF the prominent
men who have loaned their names to
the Board Of Governors or other offici-
al ranks should be called upon to ex-
plain few things about it. For in
stance It is said that a party of men,
most OF them Of Hebrew persuasion
are really behind the jamestown Fair
and it is their object to use the i'm
provcmcnts made at Government and
public expense, as we'll as the adver-
Using, to establish q manufacturing
centre there when the exposition has
closed. The buildings, it is claimed
have been erected in many cases with
the primary object of furnishing suit
able structures for factories and the
grounds are arranged and laid out
with a view to the greatest convent
cncc OF the manufacturers. At the
close of the exposition the buildings
will necessarily be sold at very low
figures and the improvements on the
grounds, etc. cannot be removed. 1t
will then be the chance for the Hebrew
gentlemen to step forward and pick up
the bargains. 1t would seem that
evil days are ahead for the exposition
not only as regards as its disappoint-
ing and unsatisfactory condition. but
with reference also to the honesty OF
it's promoters.
President Roosevelt accompanied
by Mrs. Roosevelt and a couple OF
servants has gone to the pretty Vir-
GINA cottage OF Mrs. Roosevelt remote
from everywhere, to live the simple
life for few days. pine Knot"
which is the name of their place, con-
sists of acres of ground and six room
cottage in a most isolated and out OF
the way spot in the Virginia woods.
1t is used entirely as a retreat by the
President and Mrs. Roosevelt and
White House Secretaries and clerks
are excluded from it. The President
will receive such papers as arc ncces-
sary for him to see once day but he
will spend nearly all his time riding
and walking through the woods.
General Kuroki with his brilliant
encourage of japanese officers has left
the city. He and his staff made a
good impression here. 1t is puzzling
to know what to make of these Oricn-
tails so recently attained to world pow
err. 1t is impossible to regard them
without comminghd emotions of con-
tempt and awe. Their mysterious
eyes, sphinx like noses and irrcproach-
able manners; their runt like figures
and their dignity have q. fascination
not unmixed with repulsion.
