Much ado is made by many news

Not the least of these is the 20 millions

COUNTY,.
James Bannatyne.

Brief mention was made last week of
the death Thursday evening, June %,
1910, of Mr.. James Bannatyne, of Eek
hart.
He had been i'll since November last
year, of troubles which, weakening his
heart, the latter finally gave way and
became the immediate cause of death.
Mr.. Bannatyne was born i'll Lesma-
hago, Lanarkshire, Scotland, October 30.
1919, and was, therefore, in the 6lst
year of his age. To this country he
came in April 1869, and at once made
his home i'll Eckhart. He wrought dill
igently. prospered, meanwhile never for
getting "bonnie lassie' left in Scot
land. Two long years thus passed, and
then he sent for Miss Annie Glen. In
Cumberland he met her and at once they
were married by Rev. Asbury r. Riley.
In Eckhart they made their home and
for forty years he was valued EN-
ployee of the Consolidation Coal Com
pany.
AS a citizen his record is uneXception-
able. For twenty-five years he had
been a conscientious advocate and
staunch exemplar of the principles of
the Prohibition party, and was treasurer
of the county fund at the time of his
death. In this, as in other movements,
he identified himself with whatever he
conceived to be for popular betterment-
for the moral advancement of town,
county, State and country.
He had been superintendent of the
Eckhart Baptist Sunday School and
treasurer of the church since 1885, and
outside of the church-in civic life, he
felt no little pride in the fact that for
twenty-five years he had been the peo-
pies trustee i'll the towns public school.
The JOURNAL is glad to elaborate these
facts because ID they are worthy of any
citizens record, and (2) Mr.. Bannatyne
was one of the JOURNALS first, longest
and staunchest friends. He was criti-
cal reader. He had agreed and dis
agreed with 1.-The great paper never
hesitating in either case to coincide or
dissent. In truth, James Bannatyne
was an honest man, loyal citizen and
Christian gentleman.
With Mrs. Bannatyne four daughters
and one son mourn the death of a kind
husband and indulgent father-Mrs
Edwin Elias, of Frostburg; Mrs. Will
liam Herman, Mrs. Edward Grim, Miss
Kate Bannatyne, of Eckhart.
The funeral at the Eckhart Baptist
Church Sunday afternoon was largely
attended. friends from all along the
Greek thus paying honor to his memory.
Rev. B. f. Bray, of Frostburg, con-
Quoted the services and paid touching
tribute to Mr.. Bannatyne's Christian
life.
The remains were borne to the grave

Haas drove up to Mr.. Roy l.. McCar-
dell's residence, New Rochelle, n. Y,
and took Miss Frances McCardell, the
1S-year old daughter, out ostensibly for
an outing in a new automobile. A
while thereafter Mr.. and Mrs. McCar-
dell received telegram announcing
that Miss Frances had formally and
legally assumed Mr.. Haas patronymic.
An immense, intense surprise this was,
for Mr. McCardell, whom the New York
Times characterizes as ga professional
humorist,' was primarily inclined to
view his pretty daughters act as an I'M

Wilson Theatre, Baltimore, has a
manager named Dillon. If he is a
colonel, the Wilson is probably the
only play house in the country that is
"up to- the Midland Base Ball Club.
COMING EVENTS
"Within the current fortnight" said
manager Gerlach last Tuesday, Frost
burg will be engaged in six games-four
at home, two away. Mt. Savage is due
here Thursday afternoon, June 30; Ber-
lin Monday, July 4, for two games
forenoon and afternoon, and Midland
Thursday afternoon, July 18th.
Keno" says Berlin has always had
good, strong team. The present is no
exception, and will make the home boys
hustle to win.
But manager Gerlach has been very
busy this week strengthening his aggre-
CATION. He has secured good pitcher
in Pollard, of Pittsburg. Pollard has
done some twirling for Meyersdale dur
ing the past two seasons and has proved
a good one.
"Sptznas, of the "White Sox,' has
been secured to play first base in place
of Jenkins, and he is a rafting fielder
and hustler of some ability
"All in all. the management will
present good strong aggregation.
1.-The national holiday would be no
holiday at all without the national game.
So. it is expected that everybody will
turn out and see these two games next
Monday The first will begin at 10 a. IN.
the second at 3 p. III.
To-day Saturday Mr.. Gerlach will
take the team to Midland to play Col.
Dillon's midland Miners" who have
been "going some" this season. They
have played 8 games; won 7, lost 2.
But if they win to-day they will have to
play ball. Spates and Mckenzie will do
the battery work for Frostburg and
Stakem and Sloan will be in the points
for the Miners" A great big crowd
will be there and it is believed that the
game will be a good one.
PERSONAL
"Jim jenkins, the popular first base
man of Frostburg, left Monday for
Paintsville, Ky, to take an official posi-
ton with the Consolidation Coal Com
pany. Jim is clever, companionable,
genial gentleman and a good base ball
player. He has certainly rendered the
local team great service. His work in
the series with Homecoming last year en-
deared him to all the baseball fans here.
All wish him success in his new home,
and hope he and his little family may
find health. happiness and contentment
in old Kentucky
"Salb, of last years local team, will
be here for two weeks and will play
third base for the Midland Miners.
He will be in the two games they will
play in Cumberland Monday, July t.
"Lonaconing's manager has put the
initial, H., on the backs of the players
instead of front as heretofore. The new
uniform is white, with blue cap. belt
