OIL TO LAY DUST.
Cleveland Park Officials Believe 1t Is
Cheaper Than Water.

Hundreds of gallons of crude oil
will be used by Cleveland, O., the COM
ing summer in laying the dust on the
boulevards and park roads.
1t has been decided by park officials
that oil for dust laying purposes is
cheaper than water. Experiments
were conducted last summer by Su-
perintendent Starke and Parke Engi-
neer Stinchcomb and it was announced
recently that the crude oil compost
ton would be used this season in
place of water for sprinkling pur-
poses.
A composition of crude oil and soap
is used, and this is diluted with water.
At first the proportion of the crude oil
mixture is great, but after coating
forms on the roadways it is necessary
to use but small amount in the wa
ter and the necessity for sprinkling
also becomes less and less. A well
coated roadway will be sprinkled but
once in two weeks at the height Of
the summer season after the system
is in force.
THE use of oil will be great labor
saver" said Superintendent Starke.
I'VE will not need nearly so many
men and teams"

CHURCH BY TELEPHONE.
Farms i'm Western Pennsylvania Have
Remarkable Arrangement.

Attending church by telephone has
become realty among many of the
Farmers of Washington, Crawford and
other counties of Pennsylvania. At
least three churches in Washington
county have been equipped for this
purpose and it is believed the arrange
ment will be greatly extended by win
ter.
A big, funnel-shaped transmitter is
placed in such relation to the pulpit
that it catches every word uttered by
the preacher, without in any way
minimizing it's force on the audience
proper.
The Bell telephone system has made
traffic connections with 110 farmer
line companies in Pennsylvania and
the number is being increased practi-
cally every week. 1t is asserted that
some of the most valuable suggestions
received by the company come from
its farmer patrons and because a lit
tie band of devout farmers in one of
the isolated communities of Washing
ton county wanted to attend church
services, or, at least, to hear sermons,
that this latest arrangement in tele-
phoning has been made.

Two Trains in LandslideS.

Cumberland, Nd, May 24.-Two east
bound freight trains on the Western
Maryland railroad were caught by
landslides last night. The engine and
two loaded coal cars of the second
train were hurled into the Potomac
river and seven loaded hoppers de-
rallied.
AS the first train approached Sarah,
about so miles south of Cumberland lit
was caught by slide 60 feet long and
about 5 feet deep. Trees and logs
came down with the rocks and earth.
The engine and one car were derailed.
The second train was caught by slide
at Wallman, half mile west. The
damage here was the greater. The en-
gineer and fireman escaped by jump
ing, but Brakeman B. M. Clark, of
Ridgeley, w. Va, who was riding on
the engine, was injured. Passengers
were transferred around the obstruc-
tions today.

The Sweet Girl Graduate.

Next to the June bride, the fairest
flower of spring is the sweet girl grad
uate. She buds and blooms in every
section of the country and sheds the
perfume of violet water and sachet
powder over all the land. While the
tow-maned college youths are crowd
ing all the big words in the dlctlon-
ary into ponderous theses, settling all
the problems of mankind and taking
to the woods to roar out their orat1ons,
the girl is very sensibly spending her
time at the dressmaker's and settling
the really important problem OF
what shall l wear?" She realizes
perfectly we'll that nobody cares
whether her essay is on 'The Pleas
ures of Home" or "The Rights of
American Womanhood." She knows
they will pay very little attention to
her essay; but if she is dream of
ribbons and chiffon they will pay con-
siderable attention to her. The essay
is as insignificant part of the cere-
mony as the bridegroom at fashion
able wedding. The girl herself's the
thing.
They are not all raving beauties:
for Dorothy Dix tells us that mo wo-
made her." But where else in all the
world can you find such banks of love-
linesss as are displayed on the school
and college platforms at commence
ment? That little girl over there in
white muslin may seem plain to you,
but look at the pride of that mother
watching her from the audience, the
tear in that old fathers eye. They
know that in her is embodied the
joys and SORROWS, the struggles and
hopes of the years. She has grown
and budded and blossomed in a soil
rich with sacrifice and devotion, wat
cred with anxious tears and summed
with the warmth of a thousand hopes.
In her is the joy of youth, the Tilt
of grace, the heart of womanhood. She
is the white flower of purity and love-
Iiness and the hope of the race.
Here's to the girl graduate: Heav-
ems smile upon her!-Baltimore Sun.

Vacant Lot Committees.

IT you live in town where there is
no improvement society, get vacant
lot committee appointed from your
board of trade, woman's club, literary
society or some like organization. Wis.,
1t all vacant lots, and owners, either
in person or through correspondence,
and labor toward keeping them clear
OF weeds and rubbish at all seasons
of the year. This particular phase of
civic betterment is all that some i'm
provement clubs aim to do and there
is nothing in the average town that
so badly needs attention and jealous
supervision, nothing that adds more
to the general appearance of a thickly
settled town or village or that will
give such good returns for labor or
expended.

FOR GOOD ROADS.
Meeting in Interest of Road from o.
new to Westminster.

Rockville, Md, May 25.-The Good
Roads League of Frederick, Carroll,
Howard and Montgomery counties and
others interested in better roads met
at Laytonsville in the interest OF the
proposed State road from Olney Mont
gomery county, to Westminster, Car
roll county William H. Griffith, of
Laytonsville, presided.
The principal address was by Jesse
P King, president of the Good Roads
League. Mr.. King described the route
of the proposed road, asserting that
no road improvement of the same cost
in the State would be of more value
to as widely diversified interests. The
road, he said, would run by Laytons-
Vile, Etchison, Damascus, Mount
Airy, Taylorsville, and Warfieldsburg
to Westminster, distance of SO miles,
and would connect with the Washing
ton pike at Olney and the Hanover
pike at Westminster, and would make
a continuous pike from Washington
almost to the Gettysburg battlefield,
running through sections of Montgom-
cry and Carroll counties that are
most remote from railroads. Mr.. King
declared the proposed road would
serve the best needs of the cross
State travel from north to Washing
ton, from south to Pennsylvania points,
from a remote corner of Carroll coun-
ty to the county seat at Westminster
and from remote corner of Mont
gomery county to the county seat at
Rockville. The route, he said, has
no difficult engineering features, the
entire route from Olney to Westmin-
ster being high and dry, escaping high
waters or marshy stretches.
Francis G. Hutton, of the Good
Roads Commission, also addressed the
gathering. Mr.. Hutton stated that he
recognized the importance of the i'm
provement of the proposed route and
pledged himself to do everything with
in his power to have the road con-
structed.
The following committee was ap-
pointed to meet Governor Crothers and
the members of the Good Roads Com
mission at Rockville next Tuesday to
urge that the desired Improvement be
made: VIM. H. Griffith, James c.
Christopher, Jr., L. E. Riggs, c. w.
Walker, Josiah w. Jones, Washington
B. Chichester and James Barnesby.
