very steady cricket. and together they
carried the score to thirty-one. The

return to the game after seven weeks
absence and demonstrated to the on
lockers that ne is far from played out

DR.. Williams quickly followed CaIlen-
der, falling prey home OF Roses seduc-

their side, scoring twenty-five, and
twenty-four, respectively. w. J. Ed

More Ground For Church Site

Trustees OF North East M. Z.
Church have concluded to pur-
chase the Kenney and McCracken
lots north of the church property,
the former for $475 and the latter
for $500. This will give 90 feet
additional on Main street and a
total length of I44 feet from the
Cameron line to the corner of the
tower of the recently burned
church. The original church lot
had a front of 100 feet, of which
10 feet was formerly used as a
side entrance, but later came to
be used as street, but without
the sanction of the trustees. The
town about twelve years ago
widened the entrance to this
street by adding the site of an ad-
joining house on the South,
which was bought and torn down.

WATH0UTS ON
THE RAILROADS

-|.t
The heavy rains OF tile ,.....a week
have caused much trouble to both
the B. and O. and Pennsylvania
tracks in the county. The worst
washout took place near Singerly
Station on Wednesday night, as Z
result of which a B. and O. freight
was wrecked. Nine freight ears
left the tracks and were piled up
by the way, owing to the disap-
pearing road bed. Nobody was
hurt4in the wreckage.
Wreck trains were sent there.
and one train that left Whining
ton was unable to get to the
wreck because Of the damaged
road bed, and returned to vii
mington and made the trip to the
wreck scene over the p, B. & w.
Forces of men are repairing the
Baltimore and Ohio road bed.
wherever damage has occurred.
Meanwhile the B. and O. trains
are being transferred to the
Pennsylvania tracks at Philadel-
phia and Bay View.
The backing up of the North
East river and OF rain coursing
over the tracks also caused break
in the road bed near North East.
On the Port Deposit branch Of
the F., B. & w. Railroad, a land
slide OF mud and rocks occurred
near Port Deposit, covering the
tracks. A freight train rounded a
curve, and before the locomotive
could be stopped it had poked its
pilot into the mountain of mud on
the tracks. Ma cars were derailed
and no damage was done beyond
an obstruction of traffic until the
mud could be removed.
