Citizens National Bank Purchases q
New.BuildinG Site.

To keep pace with its rapidly growing
business, The Citizens National Bank
has purchased the site-corner Union
street and Broadway, known as "The
Percy Corner" and will shortly clear
the ground preparatory to the erection
of a modern bank building.
The business of the Bank had long ago
outgrown it's present quarters and tins
movement has been delayed by the diff
ficulties encountered in the effort to
secure a favorable location.
1t is the determination of the Directors
to provide a banking room that will not
only afford every convenience to Its
patrons, but be lasting credit to the
institution and the town as well.
In dimensions it will be three-story
structure of appropriate architectural
design, ~ feet on Union street by 80
feet on Broadway. AS to plans of ar
rangement and materials of construction
these will be determined later.
The Citizens National Bank was es-
tablished little over II years ago, and
has steadily prospered aud grown until
to-day it ranks as one of the soundest
and strongest financial institutions OF
the State.
During the period named it has paid
its share holders $37 800 in dividends,
besides accommodating a surplus of $40 900
over and above its capital of $5O, 900.
Its policy has always been liberal,
thus contributing in no small degree to
the substantial growth and development
of the community.
The Directors, alert and active i'll its
management, are representatives of the
towns most substantial and progressive
business elements, as will be seen in
reading the list:
d. Armstrong John S. Brophy
Harry c. Colburn Howard Hltchlns
w. Arthur Hitchins Thomas Humberston
A. J. Wilson Frank Watts
OF these Messrs. Armstrong, Numbers
ton, Wilson, Colborn, Watts and How
ard Hitchins are the institutions plo-
neers. They were members of the first
Board-three of them Officers, in the
beginning-the period in all enter prises
when all questions are more or less
crucial. To their care and discrimina-
ton, therefore. the Banks success is
greatly due, because theirs was the prl-
mary opportunity.
In Mr.. Watts, the Cashier, the Board
has always enjoyed the cooperative
service of an exceptionally competent
officer Careful, safe, steady and sure,
he has made the Banks interest para
mount IN all emergencies. at the same
time courteously affording customers all
possible accommodation.
The present movement is conceded by
all to be an enterprise alike advantage
GUS to the Bank and beneficial to the
town. and as such is unanimously well
coined and commended.

In the Nick of Time.

A couple of ladies and gentlemen
drove up from Cumberland one evening
this week, took supper at a popular
restaurant, and, starting to return, each
pair got into the two buggies. One of
the horses was little too impatient,
however, and turning quickly, backed
into the other with a crash. This
alarmed the other horse until both pairs
would have been overturned but for the
timely assistance of policeman William
Warn. With masters hand he halted
the more unruly animal and brought
him to stand-still, thus. no doubt, say.

Three thousand feet above the vale, It's face
toward the sky,
All day amid it's noble mood the wind blown
shadows fly:
The eagle from its eyrie near sweeps high
and low again,
But Dams Rock keeps unmoved its guard
above the dreams of men.
A silver strand in distance dim,
Potomac ribbons down.
Through many grove of seraphim,
TO many busting town.
Great Savage in his bulk serene the blue
horizon nearS,
And on the slopes across the vale the spire
of FroStburg rears;
From Pompey Smash to Eckhart Mines the
busy toll goes on
Down in the dawnless depths of earth that
grew in earth'S first dawn.
An orchard on some low plateau,
A gran-tield green and sweet.
And round the bend four miles below
A train crawls through the wheat.
A distant rumbling o er the bridge, and then
smoke tram and all
Into the tunnels mouth beyond with puff
and rumble crawl;
The sweet homes nestled far adown the
wales of bird and bloom
Drift In dream of quiet life beneath the
warm perfume.
On table rock a tourist band
In hardihood replete,
Sit round with sandwiches in hand
To chatter and to eat.
Swift etched the picture for song-but o,
Dams Rock, the dew
OF august centuries hoar with age has kissed
the brow of you.
Far laundering of the avalanche. and rain
storms young when time
First walked the primrose world have swept
thine altitude sublime.
Unmoved undaunted and serene,
In sunshine and in rain.
Your forehead tops the living green
Upclimbing from the plain
Three thousand feet, and here we are. and
wonder fills the eye,
And on this solid rock of time we watch
them passing by
The ages that have carved and cut below
this rugged brow
Those wales of bloom and slopes of green
where Frostburg siumbers now
Three thousand feet, majestic steep,
Loved wales and planes of dream
And yonder, as if lost in sleep,
Potomac's winding stream

courteous Frostburs Officials"

The JOURNAL made mention last week
of the visit of Plof. o. H. Bruce and J.
o. J. Greene, of Westernport, to Frost
burg, but more extended report. under
the foregoing heading, was made by the
gentlemen to the Piedmont CIV. Va
Uerdh of 22d inst, as follows:
Mr. J. o. j. Greene, town commissioner,
and Mr.. o II. Bruce clerk, both of West
ernport were visitors to Frostburg Wednes-
day of this week, having business in the
town clerks office there, Mr.. j. S. Metzger
Meeting there Mr.. Harvey, the civil en-
gineer, the visitors were taken in charge by
him and treated most kindly indeed. A
very pleasant ride over the town was gwen
Westernports people, the escorting party
being the mayor of Frostburg, Mr.. j. J.
Price, Councilman J. G. Iungerman, and
the popular clerk there, Mr.. J. S. Metzger
The extensive system of public improve
ments going on there was particularly noted,
and occasioned much favorable remark. a
visit was made to the newl y erected reservoir,
Just little way out Of town. the visitors
getting sight of as pretty piece of work
of the kind they had ever seen. 1t is most
conveniently situated and perfectly adapted
to the needs of Frostburg's water system.
The reservoir is of about 104 feet in diameter,
some Is feet deep, and best of all, is kept
full of water, there being about IL feet of
water there at the time of the visit. No
wonder there is supply and full pressure
all the time. The whole structure is of
reinforced concrete work, its overfows,
sluices, drainage pipes. etc, being of the
latest ideas. Its cost was about nine thous-
and dollars. Mr.. Greene and Mr.. Bruce
speak enthusiastically of the many cour-
tesies shown them by the officials while in
Frostburg
That was nice thing for the officials
to do. Acting representatively, the
town gets credit for courtesies extended
to visitors who come for any purpose,
especially to obtain information for their
own municipal advantage.
Moreover. it is just as nice for towns
to be neighborly as for people.

Great Tine-Great Paper.

The editor sat on his hard bottom'd chair
Trying to think up great new thought;
He pillow all his fingers about in his hair,
But never a great topic they brought.
He'd written on temperance. tariff and trade,
And the prospects of raising crop,
And jok d of poor lce-cream and weak
lemonade
Till his readers had warnd him to stop.
And. weary of thinking, sleep came to his
eyes;
He pillow'd his great head on the desk,
While thoughts when awake refused to arise
Came in great drops so strange and
grotesque.
And as his great ideas airily float
He selects just one of the great tribe,
And this is the great gem, while dreaming,
he wrote
"And now-nOw is the time to subscribe ~
But what paper ?' ask the people i'll great

And then he sat right up elate-
