4 Developed Industry.

Quite number of years ago Mackley
Brothers, of this place, started in very
modest way small confectionery and
ice cream business located in the building
now occupied by Mr.. d. K. Rouzer. By
close personal supervision of their then
little business it gradually developed and
increased from year to year, particularly
with their ice cream manufacturing end,
so much so that last year they disposed
of their retail business to Firor Brothers
in order to give more time to their whole
sale manufacture of ice cream, which
had grown to such an extent that it re-
quired the two brothers, Messrs Charles
M. and J. Irwin, undivided time to look
after the same.
They have developed this business into
quite an industry for the town, and we
were surprised to know that they pay
the farmers annually, for cream bought
by them, over $1,000. 90, showing the great
amount of business done by them. Be-
sides supplying a large local trade, they
ship to Pen Mar, Blue Ridge Summit and
points along the Western Maryland Rail
road down as far as Owings Mills, and
frequently into Frederick.
We call attention to this matter as it
would seem that the manufacture Of ice
cream was rather small item for our
town, and in the paying out Of such a
large sum as $1,000. 90 to the farmers for
cream, it means that they have an ex-
ceedingly favorable outlet in the COM
munity for their own products. We
hope that nothing will interfere in any
way with these gentlemen in the bust
ness in which they are now engaged, as
they have developed it with the farmers.

To Hold or Not to Hold a Fair.


One of the questions being considered
by the members of Guardian Hose Com
pany of this place is whether to hold or
not to hold fair during the coming fall
or winter. A general canvass OF the bus
mess men of the town has been made in
order to get their views in the matter,
and all have expressed themselves as be-
ing favorable to the movement. While
Thurmont is growing and spreading out,
the hose now in possession of the COM
pany for twenty odd years is apparently
getting shorter. 1t is thought wise to
have more hose and have same kept at
different places so that in case of fire
the hose would be close at hand.
The next meeting of the Firemen will
be held September 9th, and at this time
action will be taken to decide whether a
fair will or will not be held.

and which, ultimately was responsible pri-
marily for the resignation Of Mr. Stilings
as public printer.

proves the findings, the verdict of the
court of inquiry into the cause of the
death of Lieutenant James\N. Sutton, jr.,
of the marine corps st Annapolis on Octo-
Der 10, 1907, will be made public today The
findings of the court have been reviewed
by Captain Edward II. Campbell, the
judge advocate general OF the navy, as
required by law, and they. together with
his recommendations, will be submitted to
Mr.. Winthrop. 1t took the judge advocate
general only a brief time to go over the
courts work, and the fact that he is ready
to make a report leads to the inference
that he has few, if any observations to
make on the subject matter contained in

Omaha was given relief from the torrid
heat and prostrating humidity which held
the city in their grasp for three days,
when early this morning the temperature
shifted downward a few degrees, bringing
a light shower and a cool, refreshing
breeze from the north. The skies were
overcast with clouds until 10 o'clock, when
they began breaking away, and by lO:&
the sun shone forth brilliantly again, bul
not with the whiting effect that produced a
harvest of death in Omaha and many other
cities Sunday and Monday.
With the temperature lower than for
three days, Forecaster Welch still pre-
diets cooler weather for Omaha tonight
and probably showers. This morning it was
much cooler in the upper Missouri valley

Omaha tonight There was no rain worthy
Of mention in Nebraska today.

thermometer registered rs degrees. The

ported to be IS degrees

The reduced temperature brought an end
to the prostrations and deaths from the
excessive heat, and not one case was re-
ported at the hospitals or police station
during the morning. Two deaths occurred
early this morning from the effects OF
Mondays scorching heat. These brought
the total of the heat victims for the last
three days up to twenty-one. Not all these
deaths were directly due to heat but Che
doctors ascribed the general humidity as
a COntributory cause.
An unidentified man, found at the Six
teenth street viaduct Monday afternoon,
died at ST. Joseph's hospital at a. m.
His death was due to the heat He weighed
about 80 pounds and suffered great pain
