TRAINS THROUGH SAND
PATCH TUNNEL TODAY
RaiIroaders Bring Glad Tidngs That
Tunnel Is Again Clear-A
Great Relief.

Railroad men coming in over the
pike which is the railroaders desig-
nation of the Connellsylle division of
the B. &. O. railroad, stated that the
old Sand Patch tunnel had been finally
cleared and that trains would run
through today The trains to be oper-
ated through the tunnel today will be
freight trains exclusively. The pas
senger trains will follow the Western
Maryland line as usual. The reason
for this they are still working crews
at the tunnel and more or less delay
will be caused by traffic through it,
In order not to delay the passenger
trains the b. & o. will for a few days
at least continue sending all passen-
ger trains via the Western Maryland
route. The news that the old tunnel
I'd been successfully cleared so speed
lily was quite a surprise to railroad
men here. There had been so many
conflicting reports about the probabili-
ties of getting the tunnel opened early
that no one had knowledge of the eX-
act situation, except the railroad Off
ciaIs who were looking after the
work, and they issued no official state
ment about it, but busted themselves
driving every possible force they could
command to get through just as speed
lily as possible The men in charge
of the work evidently planned them
selves. Only few days ago rail
road builder who has had much ex-
oerience in such WORK stated without
prejudice that he did not believe trains
would get over the route before De
cember l. The fact seems to be the
3. & 0. officials themselves could not
predict for a certainty because as the
work Of clearing the bore progressed
more of the tunnel kept falling in.
The B. & 0. engineers conceived the
idea of overcoming this difficulty early
in the work Of removing a portion of
the mountain on top of the tunnel and
thus relieve the pressure that caused
the falls. The effect was good. When
L certain portion of the top had been
cut away the falls in the tunnel ceas-
ed and the contractors were enabled
to clear the old bore, timber it and
make it safe. 1t is understood that as
soon as the opening of the old bore is
complete the contractors will again re
turn to the new tunnel which parallels
the old one.

dend of ~ per cent on the common

DAVE FINDS
A DIAMOND

While packing away some stock in
his haberdashery store on Holman
street yesterday afternoon Dave
Lederer made find that opened his
eyes with amazement On the counter
in front of him lay a sparkling diamond
ring, costly but ownerless. Holding
the stone in the air, Dave showed his
find to number of patrons, but no one
claimed 1T as theirs.
AS diamonds are not found on count
ers every day Dave thought the next
best thing to do would be to insert a
want add or look for its owner. Its
not mine that sure said Dave, land
has evidently ben left by one of my
customers" Remembering that Miss
Clara Strauss had been in the store not
half an hour before Dave took 1t upon
himself to find Miss Strauss whom he
located, grieving over the loss of her
much priced diamond.
Many thanks were heaped upon Mr..
Lederer who b1ushfngly acknowledges
that he was only too glad to find it's
owner.
