Cow Falls In Kiln.

Sunday evening last when Mr.. Frank
A. Roddy's milk cows were put in the
stable for milking, it was discovered that
one of the number was missing. The
fields were searched and inquiry made
for the COW but nothing could be learned
of her whereabouts. Monday morning
the search was continued and finally she
was discovered in the bottom of an old
lime kiln. With ropes and pulleys she
was hoisted TO the top of the kiln. No
bones were broken but falling about ten
feet and being in cramped position on
bed of stones for about twelve hours
put her in bad condition. She was hauled
home, not being able 20 stand. 1t is
thought the accident will cause her death.

TnuRMONT GRANGE
ORGANIZED.

Its Object the Betterment OF
Educational, Social and Finan-
cial Conditions of Country Life.
Much interest is now being taken in
the recently organized Thurmont Grange,
which, like other enterprises that centre
in this place, seems destined to grow and
be power for progress. 1t has a list
of twenty charter members who have
been organized by State Lecturer, DR..
Augustus Stabler, and have elected and
installed full complement Of officers.
1t is extremely desirable that allprogres-
sive farmers, and their wives, who can
do SO. should join this movement for the
educational, social and financial better
ment of the conditions of country life.
1t is a great national order which has
long been thriving in Pennsylvania and
in other parts of this state, and will be
just as successful here when the people
wake up to what it means. In Pennsyl-
vania there are nearly 100000 members
who have tremendous influence in bring
ing about much needed reforms in man.
ners, customs and laws affecting country
life. Their great annual gathering at
Williams Grove has long been famous as
one of the very greatest agricultural
fairs in the country. and at which there
is neither horse racing, gambling nor
fakirs, but a magnificent educational ex-
hibit of machinery, farm and domestic
products of every description.
At Taneytown, only twelve miles from
Thurmont, grange has been holding
annual picnics for educational and social
progress for the last ten years. They
have been so successful that they are
now regarded as model for the rest of
the state. They have done more to ad-
vertise this out-of-the-way place than
anything that ever happened. In Carroll
county there are now eight successful
working oranges whose members are
thoroughly satisfied that the organization
is good thing for them in every way,
and would no more think of giving it up
than they would think of doing away
with churches and schools.
The Grange is in fact school in which
all are learners and all intelligent people
are teachers one of another. Every
farmer who studies his business can both
learn and teach. The Grange cultivates
the desire for practical knowledge and
and the faculty of importing it. BY get
ting together a company Of intelligent
people of good character and organizing
them according to definite system of
rules, principles and purposes, it aids
greatly in establishing confidence be-
tween them and paves the way for CO.
operation in the future.
The officers of the Grange are: David
G. Zentz, Master; L. R. Waesche, Over
seer; G. D. Holt, Secretary. The Grange
will meet every Saturday evening in
Thurmont at o'clock.
1t is proposed to get up an exhibit of
corn. fruits and vegetables in October
and poultry show in the winter at the
time of the Farmers Institute.
Messrs. Gilbert and Metcalf, members
of Union Bridge Grange, drove l6 miles
to be present and assist in the organiza-
ton last Saturday evening.

FORD's GRAND OPERA HOUSE.

Week Sept. 10, the famous American
character actor. Louis Mann, in his latest
romantic comedy
ELEVATING A HUSBAND.
Louis Mann conspicuous among the
leading character actors of the Ameri-
can stage, comes next week in new
romantic play written expressly for him
entitled "Elevating Husband"
The authors are Clara Lipman and
Samuel Shipman, the story is delight
fully interesting and amusing, depicting
the ludicrous efforts of wife to polish
her busy and commercially inclined hus-
band. Charles Sample, the husband, is
money getter fair type, who has ac-
cumulated enormous riches, is good ma
tured and generous, but in the eyes of
Mrs. Sample (who aspires to the intel
lectuaD lacks culture, and she makes the
process fad and is continually at Sam
pie who tries hard to be pbliging with
merry, and at times pathetic, result.
Besides the strong Characterization
and dramatic power of the comedy it is
highly amusing and effective in its ro-
mantle and genuine fun. Mr.. Mann por-
trays Sample with his usual artistic charm
making it as strong as his former sue
cessful roles of the old matchmaker in
"The Man Who Stood Still" and Pitter-
d6rf in 1.-THE Chestre." The locale of
the play is in New York city.

AWARNING ToALL TOWNS
Dangerous To Yell Fire" In
Crowded Hall or Church.
Doors Should Open Out.

The above headline and following arti-
Gle as far as the seventh section is taken
from the Taneytown Carroll Record. It
is good advice and may be of benefit to
the people of Thurmont. 1t says:
1.-THE terrible disaster at moving pic
ture show in Canonsburg, Pa, last week
which resulted in the death Of 26persons,
is plain warning to all towns, large or
small. A film exploded and boy yelled
"fire, (which caused stampede for the
stairway, and in the panic. 26 were tram
Piled and crushed to death, 10 Of them
being children. There are several les
sons to be learned from this catastrophe.
First. 1t is criminal to yell "fre,
on such an occasion, even when there
really is one, for fire in an entertain
ment hall is not likely to burn SO fiercely
as not to permit all to have time to get
out unhurt, in an orderly manner.
"Second. Every hall proprietor should
have at hand, and in plain view if posi-
BILE, an ample number Of buckets of wa
ter with which to quickly quench sud-
den fire. The knowledge of this will
give the audience confidence and aid in
preventing a wild panic.
"Third. There should be at least two
easy exits from every public audience
room, and the arrangement of seats
should be so that they can be easily
reached.
Fourth. When leaving building, in
case of panic, those who get out first
should not stand around and blockade
the bottom of the stairways.
Fifth. Inthe large majority, of these
panics, there is very little real danger;
therefore, all should keep COOL" and
not be led into mad rush for escape.
Quietly stand aside, and let the foolish
ones 60, unless you Gan persuade them
to follow your example.
"Sixth. All hall proprietors should
know enough about entertainments, and
the apparatus to be used, to be satisfied
that there is no unusual danger likely to
occur. Moving picture shows, especially,
should be carefully watched.
Seventh. There should always be
somebody at hand, with known authority
whose business it is to lsok after trouble
of any kind, and to give the audience
proper advice, when needed"
The matter of exits at Town Hall, in
Thurmont certainly needs the attention
of the Town Commissioners. He Hall
has two exits, one in front, and one in
the rear from the stage, but this is shut
off nights on which moving picture shows
are given. The front doors open but one
way, in, instead of both ways, and are
not provided with any device to keep
them open, unless such has been placed
there since Saturday evening last.
The doors might stay open and no fire
occur for ninetynine shows, but at the
one hundredth the doors might not be
open and fire occur, panic ensue and
many be caught in death trap. Two
pair of double hinges and several hours
work will remedy the situation very much.
All doors to halls and churches or places
where large crowds gather, should be
made to open both ways.

"HOme Ties"

The above is the title of the drama
given by st. Stephens Guild, Saturday
evening, Sept. I'd, in the Town Hall of
this place. The "Home Ties" are those
existing between father and daughter
and young man who happens to be
their neighbor. All live in the country
and are happy until visited by folks
from the city," one of which is young
man who falls in love with the daughter
to the displeasure of her father and
neighbor. There also came handsome
young lady from the city and through
various persons the country lad is in
duced to flirt with her. The daughter
seeing her former lover in company with
the city lady, becomes jealous and after
much scheming on the part of her father,
aunt and others, meeting accidental
of course) is brought about, and again
Home Ties" which were broken were
renewed and the maiden says, eyes"
The play throughout was one of the
catchiest given by local talent for some
time. In the cast were Mr.. Paul Beard,
who was the father; Miss Mary Creager,
the daughter; Mr.. Frank Anders, the
young neighbor and lover; Mr.. Charles
Matthias, the fellow from the city; Miss
Elizabeth McGill, also from the city and
friend to the daughter; Miss Ernestine
McGill, an aunt, Miss Helen Wisong, a
widow with a pension and symptoms, Mr..
Edgar Eyler, an umbrella member who
was desperately in love with the widow
and finally wins her; Miss Grace Waesche,
the colored maid who helps to keep
things moving in the household.
Not on the program but on the stage,
however, sixteen little girls beautifully
dressed, did the cake walk to perfection.
By vote of the audience the cake was
won by Misses Catherine Firor and Helen
Root. Everybody went from the hall
well pleased with the performance. Those
in charge were also pleased with the re-
ceipts of the evening.
