FACTORY NAY NOT MOVE.
Victor Tool Company Wants to Stay
In Waynesboro.


AT a meeting Of the stockholders OF
the Victor Tool Company, whose
shops We're recently burned in
Waynesboro, 4 was decided TO convert
the stock of the company now issued
into common stock. TO be retained by
the present stockholders, and issue
$4,000 in preferred stock, to be sold
at par.
The common stock. s24 900, and pre-
ferred stock will make a total capital
ization of $4,000 and the members
of the directorate say will enable the
company 10 do a business of $150,000
a year.
If the stock can be sold in Waynes-
boro, the shops viii be erected there.
1t will be remembered that two rep
resentatives Of this company recently
visited Martinsburg at different times.
and one OF them was before the board
Of trade when the probable removal
OF the company's plant from Waynes-
boro was discussed. Their visit and
the line of talk they had naturally in
spired the supposition that this city
stood a pretty good chance Of getting
the factory. But now that seems to
be knocked in the head.

the time for practical action has ar
rived.

Accident Which Happened at Green
Spring One Of the Worst In This
Section For Some time-6ia New
Engine Turned Completely Around

Time.
From The World Of Wednesday:
A freight wreck occurred on the
Baltimore and Ohio Railroad this
morning which resulted in the death

berland and probable fatal injuries to
the fireman and brakeman of the fast
freight 50.
The accident occurred at Green
Spring about $50 this morning and
was caused by fast freight No. SO
crashing into an extra freight as K
was coming out onto the main track.
The engine OF No. SO plowed through
several cars and ran about Is car.
lengths before Il turned over.
The responsibility for the wreck
can not yet be placed. The crew Of
the extra may have mistaken second
No. 8 for SO and pulled out ahead of
the fast freight. or the dead engineer
may not have seen that he did not
have a clear track.
The engine pulling the fated train
was one of the new ones just deliver
ed to the company, No. 1888, and it IS
said the huge machine was turned
completely around and vas headed
east. In the crash Engineer Frank
Brookman was killed and his fireman
and brakeman were both severely
scalded by escaping steam, and were
taken to the hospital in Cumberland,
The names of the injured brakeman
and firemen are given as Jacob Pow
ell, who boards a. Mrs. Wharton's
on East Martin street, this city and
Shewbridge, of Sandy Hook, and 1t is
reported this afternoon that Powell
had his face scalded and that Shen-
bridge has a broken hip, but that
both men would get well.
The tracks were blocked Tor quite
a while. Trains 10 and 4 had passed
coming east, but other trains, inclnd-
ing Nos. s and 2, were. delayed half
hour.
This makes the third OF the new
engines that has been in trouble on
this division since they have been re-
ceived.

Quoted to the dining room where a most
appetizing repast, perfectly prepared and

ton. The luncheon consisted Of many
substantial dishes as well as dalntles
and delicacies and was greatly enjoyed,
After luncheon the guests repaired to
the parlor where they spent some time
In conversation and listening to instr u

oughly enjoyed by all present and the
occasion was fully up to- the high stand
ard set by Mr.. and Mrs. Gilbert in years

Tried The Cotton Seed Meal.

Mr.. VIM. Beard being a man of an en-
qulring nature and having read about the
new departure in the bread line-cotton
seed meal bread, determined to try some
of it as an experiment.
He secured the meal from the Oil Mill
and mixed it as per directions and baked
it into bread. His entire family tried the
new bread. Some Of them with the result
that it did agree so well with them. Mr..
Beard himself says that, the bread was
very good, being something similarto the
old time cracking bread.
Now II Mr., Beard has discovered a new
way to make cracking bread his fortune
is assured, for between ambrosia and
cracking bread the angels food shows the
weaker points, and the odds go over horse
food, and dragon to the side of the good
old cracking.
Cracking bread and sweet milk Adams
menu in the garden showed no such deli
cacy. Lambs Bo DO and Hoti had not yet
begun to burn down pig pens in order to
produce that new culinary marvel-crack-
ling.
And, now, if Mr.. Beard has opened up a
new Avenue to that royal dish the public
owes him a note OF thanks.
