The walstcoat this spring will as

Of mans dress. For several years,
since coats were worn buttoned up,
the walstcoat has taken secondary
place but more Of 1t will be seen this
season and more attention will be paid
to 1t. With most coats especially the
sack and the business cutaway, the
walstcoat will be cut unusually high,
with small opening, and will show at
least an inch, and frequently consider
ably more, above the opening Of the
coat even when the latter is closed to
the top button. The favored design
will be without collar, and the OPEN

DEER PARK HOTEL BURNS.
Bucket Brigade Does Valiant Work,
Saving Adjacent Property.

Deer Park, Md, July 22.-The Saw
age Hotel, situated near the centre Of
the town and close to the tracks of
the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad, was
completely destroyed by fire Wednes-
day.
The building was a three-story
frame structure and was owned by
Charles r. Savage. who conducted the
hotel. 1t is thought the fire was caus-
ed by escaping gas in one of the upper
stories. Much of the furniture ca the
first floor was saved.
Deer Park has no fire-fght'ng appar-
atus, but the bucket brigade did good
work, saving the Baltimore and Ohio
station and other nearby buildings,
which were on fire several times. The
loss is about $4,000, with only 5000 in
srrance.

NEW YORK CENTRAL
AFTER V|RG|NIAA R. 4.
Possible That the Western Maryland
Railroad Would Be Used From
conneiIsviiie to EIkins.

II Is persiste ntly r1Enored m rail-
road circles that the real object of
the inspection trip which President j.
NJ. Schoonmaker, Of the Pittsburg and
Lake Erie, is making over the Coal
end Coke Railroad and adjacent ter
nitory, is not only the acquiring OF
tie latter road by the New York Cen
trail interests, but the ultimate secur-
ing of the Virginian Railway by the
same company. The great advantages
to be gained by the New York
Central through such a move are OBJ
gious; the building OF $50 miles OF
road from Connellsville to say, CASA
way, w. Va, would open up an en-
tirely undeveloped and very rich coal
territory, every mile OF the connec-
ton being capable OF furnishing ton
age IL both coal and timber. A
possibility of the contemplated plan
is that the New York Central would
use the w. Md. Ry. from Connells-
vile to Elkins, where the latter con-
meets with the Coal and Coke, but
tins would prevent the tapping OF the
rich coal fields between Connells-
vile and Gassaway.
That the W. Nd. Ry. Co. will with
in the next year commence construc-
ton on an important feeder to its
main line, extending south from Obi
cpyle. a distance of 6S7 miles, is re-
Ported on good authority. according
10 the plans the branch is to tap a
field of 10000 acres of coal. the thin
nest of the veins being five feet Be-
sides the vast tonnage of coal that
will come to the read, it will develop
an immen tract OF the most valua-
BILE timber to be found in Northern
