Miss Emma Humerick, of Baltimore
is visiting her parents in this place.
Mr.. George Eckenrhode, of Baltimore,
spent Sunday in this place.
The st. Anthony baseball club met and
easily defeated the strong Franklinville
team Sunday, on the latter's grounds by
a score of 27-4. The St. Anthony boys
played a very good game, only five error
being chalked against them. They found
the Frankli Invite twirlers for a tot i OF
81 hits and 81 runs, while captain Knott
who was on the slab allowed but scat.
tered hits and runs. The boys catch
ing staff was greatly strengthened by
Chas. Hemler who done such good work
for the boys in Blue and Gray during the
season of 1907. Although Charles il
working in Emm.sburg he promises to
do all he can to help his team mates. His
catching and batting in the Sunday s
game was among the features. The
managers of the team have several al =
picants for on the team. Both prove 10
be good players and if they are Lind, d
the team will no doult prove winning
one. At the athletic and literary meet
ing held on Friday, May LIST, the captain
ship of the St, Anthony's baseball e1n
was transferred to Maurice Knott, first
baseman of the team. VIM. Settler was
the former captain, but owing to his
leaving home to work his TIL, was tran'-
ferred. Last year Knott played first
base for the Mt. Blues team.
Mr.. Keepers is having his new home

Delegates From All The World To Tu-
bercul0sis Congress in Washington

bercuiosis Congress in Washington.
Unless the International Congress on
Tuberculosis, which will meet in Wash
ington September 81, is allowed the use
of the Capitol or some of the rooms OF
the new House Office building, it looks
as if the United States will be in the po-
sition of having invited representatives
of all the civilized world to Washington
and then failed to extend the oourtesies
of a host. All the Governments but
Servia and Portugal have accepted the
invitation. Forty-six countries will be
represented, as well as every State in the
Union. More than 1900 delegates will
meet in Washington for three weeks to
concentrate upon the splendid fight that
the tuberculosis societies are carrying on
in every corner of the world.
Every year there is tuberculosis con-
gress in some country. Every three
years the great international congress is
held.
England will send probably $50 dele
gates. Germany will have as many
more, and, in addition, the great collec-
ton of material and data on the subject
of tuberculosis which the German Gov
eminent has collected will be sent over
and placed at the disposal of the delegates.
Thirty seven States are showing lively
interest in the congress, Maryland among
the number. Ex-Gov. Edwin Warfield
communicated with the State Board of
Health, the Maryland tuberculosis Hos
pital, the Board of Education, the SAM
tary Live Stock Commission, the Mary
land Agricultural College, the State Lun-
acy Commission and the Board of Chart
ties, asking them to do everything in
their power to cooperate with the con-
gress
The international congress will be d.
vided into seven sections, each section
having it's own sessions independent Of
the others.
By the labors of the various congresses
that have been held consumption is being
slowly but surely wiped out. Almost
every country on the globe is joining in
the fight

WHY Not Print Facts?

In reference to detective Burnett ar
resting and bringing four negroes to this
place last week, the Hagerstown Mail of
last Friday says:
Detective Burnett madea clever cap
ture of several robbers and landed them
in Frederick Jail and he did it by follow
ing clue that seemed faint at first.
"He got word that some one had bro
ken into the Blue Ridge Summit station
and got some small change, some tickets
and other articles. Detective Burnett
landed in the gray dawn and with his ca
gle eye roamed about the land until he
came to the Monterey pike and he was
caught by sight of some torn-up re-
bates, some fresh ones, and he went on
down the line until he got word that some
negros had been camping in the rocks
near Monterey Inn. He then went back
and jumped freight for Sabillasville and
there he learned more of the men. He
got off at Deerfeld and there in the shade
of an old apple tree snoozed three mokes.
Taking the brakeman with him he collar
ed the bunch and found evidence on them
that they were robbers. He got them to
Thurmont and they went on to Frederick
Jail and curled up for Court. They adj
mitted breaking in and getting very lit
tie.
Detective Burnett is quite pleased
and so is the w. M. R. R.
The said detective did arrest and bring
to Thurmont four negroes suspected of
breaking into railroad stations. Justice
Jones questioned and searched them but
no evidence was found on which they
could be held. They admitted nothing
and Justice Jones set them at liberty,
much to the displeasure of the detective.

BASEBALL NEWS.
T.. II. S. A. 8; ROCKY RIDGE 8.

Saturday afternoon, May I'd, the Rocky
Ridge baseball club visited the local High
School club, playing them return game.
The game was Gale at $40 O'Clock and
until the 9th inning the Ridgcrs had the
game Ton ice. Both pitchers were hit
freely, but up until the last half of the
9th, Rowe, of Emmitsburg, who was on
the firing line for Rocky Ridge, had the
best of the argument, receiving good sup
port from his team mates, Although
Stoner for the High School pitched his
usual speedy bali and struck out ten of
the Ridgers, he received poor support,
which was the cause of the score stand
ing to when the High School came to
bat in the ninth inning.
In this inning Wisotzkey started by
hitting safe and stealing second, Stoner
flied out, Eyler hit safe scoring Wisotz-
key, Beard was hit and walked. With
Beard on first and Eyler on third, Flea
gle placed one in front of the plate and
in the mixup Eyler scored. With two
men on bases and only one out, II. kou-
ger hit safe, Beard scoring the winning
run, Rouzer saving the day with his stick
work.

WOman's Club Go To Frederick

Members of the Woman's Club, of
Thurmont, to the number of fourteen at
tended the performance of "Conquering
Cupid" given by the Paint and Powder
Club in Frederick, Friday night and felt
fully repaid for the trip. The newly
renovated opera house is quite commodi-
GUS and was filled with representative
audience of residents of Frederick and
vicinity. The performance went off with
ease and vim which might have charac-
terized veterans of the stage, while the
scenery representing the interior and ex-
terror of the Red Lion inn of Leyden,
Holland, was quite realistic and was
brought in special cars by the P. and P.
club. The characters were all we'll taken,
Mr.. Andrew McCann, as Grettel and lat
err as chorus lady, skipped about with
a grace and agility which seemed to belle
his alleged two-hundred and fifty pounds.
Mr.. Knell acted and sang we'll the part
of the court Chamberlain, and Mr.. Cobb
charmed the audience with his beautiful
voice in Loves Pilgrim. The handsome
costumes and graceful dancing added
greatly to the pleasure of the perform
ance, the pony ballet and the pas seul Of
Mr.. Kuhn being specially good. A pleas
ing feature of the closing scene was the
presentation of large cake by the may
or on behalf of the board of managers Of
the hospital. The club reached home
about a. m. tired, but happy. Those
in the party were Misses Firor, Henshaw,
Grimes, Lycett, Michigan, Oerter, Mar
tin, Tyson, Waesche, Rouzer, Mrs. Arm
acost, Mrs. Beaehley, Mrs. Matthias, Mrs.
Stoner, Mrs. Tyson and Mr.. w. Stoner,
from Thurmont, Mrs. McGill and Mrs.
Perkins, of Auburn, also attended the
play.

COngratulates Citizens Of ThurmOnt.
EMMITsBURG, Nd, MAY 2, 1908.

EMMITsBURG, Nd, MAY 2, 1908.
EDITOR OF The CLARION:
Congratulations to the enterprising
public-spirited citizens of Thurmont!
They have gone out to meet the Trolley
and it is theirs! They do not belong to
that class whose only asset is an mex
haustible capital of superheated eruda-
tons; whose only motto is to look with
brazen suspicion on any project that does
not mean for them rich and juicy some
thing for nothing; whose only activity is
to perch smugly on a stuffed eminence OF
superior perspicacity and guffaw belit-
tlingly at the efforts of practical, indie
pendent thinkers and doors. In spite OF
dire and ominous croakings, the road to
Thurmont, will, in a short time, be an
accomplished fact and we, and others,
all sitting up, taking notice and applaud
ing too.
1t appears that it is desirable that the
road should be extended to Emmltsburg
without cent of expense, however, to
the inhabitants of this town. Now, men
of Thurmont, would you please in your
own practical and vigorous fashion I'M
dertake to prolong the road till it reaches
the lonely confines of Emmitsburg?
am at loss to suggest way but per-
haps our bucolic friend from MOtters or
the Editor of the Chronicle might induce
the E. R. R. to extend it's lines to Thur
mont with the proceeds of its sinking
funds or by means of loan raised by
pledging the dividends of the E. r. X. as
collateral. Can any of your readers sug-
gest way of building the road to EN-
mitsburg without costing us citizens OF
Emmitsburg a demnition copper?

Detachment of Japanese Soldiers
Annihilated.

Detachment of Japanese Soldiers
Annihilated.
St. Petersburg, Aug. 7-Further de-
tails have been received here from
Possiet Bay regarding the annihila-
ton last month of a detachment of
Japanese soldiers on the Russo-Chi-
nese frontier by band of Korean in
surgents. The Japanese troops were
encamped on the frontier near Hun
chun. They were attacked unexpect-
eddy the night of July II by a strong
band of Korean insurgents and per-
ished to a man. Russian .Cossacks
who we're scouting the frontier noticed
the disappearance of the Japanese
flag from over the encampment. They
thereupon visited the place and found
traces Of a fierce struggle and the
dead bodies of the Japanese. The To-
cal population was questioned, but
protested entire ignorance of the &C.
currence. The Korean insurgents are
daily becoming more daring. They
Iattack and kill individual Japanese or
Ieven small detachments. Recently
three Koreans captured by the Japa'
nese offered to act as guides to the
! insurgent headquarters in the noun
tains. The detachment was thus lured
into the hills, where it was set upon
and overwhelmed by Koreans in am.
bush. The Koreans made use OF
stones and muskets.

EIGHT THOUSAND MEN
r. . LAY DOWN TOOLS
Canadian Pacific Strike Extends
From Coast to Coast.
.ss'ss

Winnipeg, Man., Aug. 'l-The big
gest labor dispute which the indus
trial history of Canada has known
eliminated in the form of a general
strike when the employees of the me.
chanical departments of the Canadian
Pacific railroad from the Atlantic to
the Pacific coast, some eight thousand
in number, laid down their tools and
quit work because the decision of the
Cancellation board, which was appoint
ed under the Lemieux act of Canada,
was not in accord with what they
wanted. Not merely in number of
men involved is the magnitude of the
Walkeut indicated, but in the fact that
it involves greater financial interests
and covers more territory than any
strike which has heretofore been
recorded in railway circles. The local
end of the event was represented by
the cessation from work of some one
thousand men who are employed in
Winnipeg shops. Nearly half of the
men involved are on the Western Sec
tons Of the road, the exact number
being $500. The total number affect
ed on Eastern lines is 1880, making
5000 men on strike.
Approximate figures show that the
average weekly payroll of the mechan-
ical department of the Canadian Pa
citic railroad is close to $25O,O0O. Thus
if the strike lasts month it will take
a cool S1,000,000 out of the pockets of
the 5000 men. The average daily pay
Of each man is something under 81.
Rumors are current in some circles
that the members of the operating de-
partments would also go out in SYM
pathy, but this is thought scarcely
probable. So far only the mechanical
departments are affected, while the
operating section, which includes en-
gineers,. conductors, telegraphers,
maintenance of way men and fremen
are not involved
