CITY BAND PLAYS
SACRED CONCERT
Pleasing Program at Highland Park in
Hagerstown Sunday Afternoon
Crowd Placed Above 5000.
From The World of Monday.

From The World of Monday:
The City Band went to Hagerstown
sunday morning and gave concert
there in the afternoon. About one
third of the towns population went
out to enjoy the choice music. The
band played twelve numbers and
made big hit. The Hagerstown
Herald of this morning has the follow
ing account Of the concert:
cat Highland Park west OF this citv
near the reservoir, a sacred concert
was given yesterday afternoon by the
City Band of Martinsburg. The band
is large one and the concert given
was one which pleased the large num-
Der of persons present. 1t had been
advertised that chairs would be fur
nished for all, but the attendance was
so large hat accommodations had
not been made for fraction of that
number.
Estimates made by others than by
those in charge of the affair placed
the number at upwards of 5000. An
excellent program of sacred music
was given. The trombone solo, ''The
Holy City, was one of the numbers
rendered and one which was greatly
enjoyed.
The large band stand which has
been in the public square on various
occasions for band concerts was used
at Highland Park.
Weather conditions were ideal for
such gathering and the fine loca-
ton of Highland Park afforded an ex-
cel'ent and pleasing view of the sur
roundings."

SOME BASEBALL
GAMES SATURDAY
Two With Shepherdstown and One
With Shenandoah Junction
Nicodemus Made Good

Martinsburg has a hest of baseball
players and greater host of lovers of
the game, and it is strange that a good
team can not be put in the field here
each year To prove this assertion
two teams of this city played games
at different places last Saturday.
Two games were played with Shep-
herdstown, and our boys were licked
in both. The first game resulted 9 to
1, with Nicodenus and Gettle as Il.
battery, and the second, > 70 A, with
Heating and Kilmer as the battery.
The games were good ones.
Ano her team. with Martin and
Shaffer as the battery, played the
Shenandoah Junction team at that
place, and the Martinsburg boys were
victorious by the score of 9 to ..
Made Good.
Mr.. Joe Nicodemus, Of this city. who
had been playing with Manhattan,
Kans., and who was sold to the strong
Horton, Kans., team of the Eastern
Kansas League, made good with the
team of that place, and will, if he
wants it, get berth on that team
again next year. The season has
just closed and was profitable one.
Joe. while not playing ball, will re-
main in the West until Christmas, he
having some relatives in that section,
His friends here are glad to know he

PLAYERS INJURIES
ARE NOT SERIOUS
Coach Coy of Yale Says
Football Accidents Are
Exaggerated.

Coy. OF Yale. takes exception TO the
reports printed about the Yale players
injured in the Wesleyan game. Here is
what he says:
There has not been a season in years
that there have been so few injuries at
the beginning Of the season, and this
attribute TO the new rules. The talk
that Is being circulated that several Of
our men were injured seriously in the
Syracuse game, and that they would
be out Of the game for the rest of the
season, is all foolish ness.
in many papers Merritt and DAILY are
reported to be badly hurt, but this is
absolutely false. They ere laid I'D with
trivial injuries. and outside Of the slight
bruises they are in perfect condition
Field Is reported 10 be CUt Of the game
for the remainder Of the season, but his
injuries have been exaggerated and he
will be back on the gridirOn in less than
two weeks.
.BOmeister, who Is also credited with
being on the injured list. and who they
say Will not be able 10 don the toys
any more this year. will be out for praC-
tice after a two days r-st"

First Cantalever Bridqe,

The first cantalever railroad bridge is the one across the Firth of Forth at Queens Ferry, Scotland. It is nearly one and half miles in length. Fifty one thousand tons of steel were used in it's construction, employing as many as 5000 men at one time. It cost $16,- 100000 and ffty-six lives. The work. men began at either end and worked toward the center. When they met and undertook the last connection 1t was found that the two ends lacked a ymall fracion of an inch of reaching far enough to allow the insertion ot the bolts that were to complete the Bpan. For a time this was a puzzle, but was finally solved by an ingenious workman vho suggested expansion by artificial heat, and 1t was forthwith supplied by means of burning kerosene oil under the steel girder.

An imaginative Statesman.

Imagination is the greatest moving force in the world. In saying this am merely repeating a remark of Dis- raelfs. and to prove the strength of his conviction will repeat story MT. Lowell told me when he was minister to England. It is the custom of the Royal Academy of Painters to hold a private view of their pictures before the public exhibition. Disraeli, walk ing arm in arm with Browning through the galleries, said, What strikes me most forcibly here is the lack of imagination" and he proceeded to enlarge upon the power of imagina- ton, declaring 1t to be the greatest force in the world. In responding to a toast at the banquet which followed the private exhibition he dwelt upon the wealth of imagination in evidence on the walls about him and again ex- pressed his conviction that imagina- tion is the moving force in the world. Browning repeated Disraeli's first re- mark to Gladstone. who sat beside him, and he muttered, "The devilv'- John Trowbridge in Atlantic.

Lord Pauncefote suffered great1v
 from rheumatic gout in his latter days, and he walked stifi1y and sometimes had to use two canes. He went one afternoon to make a call, and he re- mained quite long time, so long that the horses got restive. and the groom walked them up and down the street. When Lord Pauncefote left the house The carriage was not in front, and, Thinking there was some mistake ln bis orders. he started to walk to the embassy, which was only square or two. But he had twipges of his old enemy, and the pavements were icy. He was large, heavily built man, and he feared fall. While he was pondering over his dilemma along came young man in working clothes, and the British ambassador, after 6 courteous salutation, asked: "My friend, will you walk beside me and help me home? It is just short ways, but I am afraid of falling. I shall greatly appreciate It." The young man looked him over and then said thickly, "Old gent. l am pretty full myself. but I'll do the best l can-the very best can"
