1t should be borne in mind that
the laundry payroll of owe. $500 per
month which is helping to support
our business men, is brought in large
ly from other towns and those who
are getting the benefit of it and at
the same time are sending their own
work to a Chinaman, who lives like a
pack rat and sends all the money he
gets back to China, will surely have
no cause for complaint if this support
is discontinued. 40

vile, and trying to maintain our
homes, educate our children and
build up our city, and knowing the
Chinaman's style of living and habits

believing him to be detriment to

our duty to support those who make
it possible for us to live: We do here
by agree to cease all business transac-
tons with all persons, either directly
or indirectly, whom we know to be
patronizing any Chinaman in prefer
ence to white people, after April Is,

keep each other informed and as far
as possible to keep list OF all such
persons, posted where our friends and

the best interests Of all.

Fall Starts Leg Growing.

Scranton, Pa-Physicians are
puzzled by the strange case of Ar
thur Mills, who received serious in
juries when he fell seventy-five feet
from q smoke stack at the Sauquit
silk mill five months ago. Mills most
serious injury was dis1ocation or his
left hip. Or. J. T.. Rea attended him,
and although he was laid up several
weeks the hip bones were restored to
their original position and the victim
was able to leave his bed.
But to the CONSERVATION of DIR. Rea
and his patient the injured limb began
to grow, and during the last months
1t has become nearly two inches long
er than the other. 1t Is still growing
and Mills realizes that he will be a
cripple.

About wv. M. Railway.

Announcement han been made by
officials of the Western Maryland Rail
way that before September 4 trains
would be running to- Pittaburg from
Baltimore The Connellsville extern
sion, which Is now being built, will
be complete before that time and will
connect the Western Maryland with
the New York Central railway.

extension, who was arrested for work
Ing ON Sunday. Friday broke the re
cord for excavation NO far made on
the extension by excavating 500 car
loads Of stone. Eight hundred car
loads amounted to about 5000 cubic
yards.
II han been put out that the w. MI.
railroad has deferred the construc-
ton OF a line from WilliamSport to
Westminster. Recently there have
been rumors that this road was to be
constructed ag soon as the McConnellS-
vile extension had been finished.
Someone has started the new ru-
NOR. lit is said that the officials OF
the w. Nj. stated recently that nc
more extensions will be planned OF
constructed until the road sees what
II Is going to get In Hagerstown. The
men In charge or the road feel that
the construction OF the line from VII

feet great saving in the cost or NOV
ing freight.
The Western Maryland Railway
Company has placed a large order for
new equipment and motive power in
order to be fully prepared to cope
with the enormous business expected
to result by reason of the traffic
agreement entered into with the New

Advises Young Men to Marry Farm
Girls.


Kokomo, Ind.-A unique solution Of
the problems that confront a young
man who wishes to become a pros
porous and practical farmer was Civ
en- before the Howard County Farm
ers' Institute here by Edwin @. Dru-
ley.
Others had suggested that theyoung
man must cater to society and the
theatre and get acquainted with the
city folk" but Mr.. Druley brought
the discussion to an abrupt close
when he said :-
THE best thing for young man
like that to do is to pick out a wealthy
farmer, get job on his farm, then
marry one of his daughters"
That remark brought considerable
laughter but it was said with serious
ness. Sam Lovejoy, speaking of the
same subject said :-
THE young farmer must 60 in So
ciety a bit, attend shows and smoke q
trifie, otherwise he IL not Sin 1T" these
days"
This brought sharp retort from
G. /. Gates, who shouted s.
no young farmer ever smoked him
self into success or procured a farm
by attending the theatre, splitting and
| chewing, nor did be ever roll the soil
out by shutting cards BY economy
and good management q young man
may buy farm"
This discussion developed forcibly
what definition the farmers give to So
ctety. Various rules for the success
Of the young farmer were laid down
but they hinged mostly on economy
and management.

Five of Cline Largest Locomotives Ever
Constructed.


The Baltimore and Ohio Railroad
has been notified that five of the
largest railroad locomotives ever con-
structed, OF the Mallet ArticuIated
Compound type, have been completed
and have left the shops at Richmond,
en- route to Baltimore for delivery, all
ready to be placed lin service. Ten of
these hugh locomotives were contract
ed for by the Baltimore and Ohio sew
eral months ago, the present INSTALL
ment being the first delivery to be
made under the contract. The weight
OF the new engines is 461 900 pounds,
or 81, 900 pounds in excess OF any
motive power heretofore built; the
tender weighs 181, 900 pounds, making
the combined weight of the engine
and tender 1900 pounds. The new
locomotives will be placed In service
to haul freight trains over the Noun
tain Divisions OF the Baltimore and
Ohio.
The Baltimore and Ohio was the
first American railroad to purchase q
Mallet engine, which liz OF French de-
sign, and after exhibiting one as a
part OF the company's display at the
Worlds Fair at St. Louis, in 1904, ii
was put in use as helper engine in
freight service over the Allegany
Mountains. This engine, which is
still I'm use on the ConnelIsville Di-
vision, weighed 334,500 pounds, being
the heaviest engine I'm the world al
the time it was built Proving es-
peciaily adapted to American railroad
ing, where large tonnage i'm handled
still larger locomotives of the same
type were purchased by other lines for
use as helpers on freight trains.
The Mallet locomotives are SO feet
\ 81 inches long from the pilot to the
drawbar on the tender, having 16
driving wheels arranged i'm sets OF
4 four pairs. The engine also has two
sets Of cylinders, those forward being
I low-pressure and those i'm the rear
| high-pressure cylinders. The steam
| pressure OF the new engines is 30
pounds to the square inch.
! The Mallet engines were included
in the contracts for new equipment
placed early last year with view TO
equipping the road to expeditiously
handle offered and to care for in
creased business. At the same time,
| it will be remembered, the Baltimore
and Ohio management began the con-
struction OF third track across the
mountains in West Virginia, which
work is progressing satisfactorily.
