Neck Broken in an Auto Wreck

Mr.. William Stouffer, Of Emmitsburg,
was fatally injured in an automobile acci-
dent at Pen-Mar. His wife and sister are
suffering from painful injuries.
The party went by automobile to Pen
Mar. On their way home Mr.. Stauffer
lost control OF the machine as it was run
ming down the hill leading to Lake Boyer.
At sharp curve near Melvue cottage,
the large touring car left the road and
dashed down a thirty-five foot embank-
ment of rocks. The car was demolished
and all the passengers injured.
The car was not running at high rate
Of speed when the accident occurred. 1t
is possible that the lights shone against
the rocks and gave the appearance Of a
road. Before the error was realized the
automobile had gone over the embank-
ment.
DR.. Beck, of Blue Ridge Summit, was
hastily summoned and rendered medical
assistance to the injured. He found that
Mr.. Stauffer had sustained broken
neck, fractured leg, and possibly a
fractured skull and internal injuries. The
two ladies received many cuts and
| bruises, but no serious Injuries
Mr.. Stauffer was taken to Hagerstowr
on the Moonlight excursion, accompanied
| by DR.. Bek. He was removed to the
| Washington County Hospital; the ladies
are at the Mount View Hotel.
On arriving at the hospital an investi
cation showed that Xr. Stauffer's injuries
would prove fatal.

Mr.. Lebherz Resigns.

Mr.. Harry l.. Lebherz, manager of the
Ok Fibre Plant of Jacksonville, Fla, has
resigned his position. His resignation
has been accepted. Mr.. and Mrs Leb-
herr have returned home from Jackson
vile and are stopping with Mr.. and Mrs.
John Hershberger, East Third street.
Mr. Lebherz has been in the employ of
the Ok Fibre Brush Works for about ten
years. During that time he has invented
several brush machines, which save labor
and expense. He invented the machines
known as the sander and trimmer and
daisy" brush, a combination machine
which trims and sandpapers the brush at
the same time. He also invented a
hacking machine which is now in use
in Florida, most intricate piece Of
mechanism.
The Daisy brush machine makes
brushes by one continuous operation.
Mr.. Lebherz has been mechanical drafts
man for the plant in this city about five
years.
Mr. Lebherz has received some hatter-
ing offers, but as he desires a rest he is
undecided relative to his future move
mentS.

Much Damage Done by the Storm
and Hail.

A severe storm visited the eastern
section of the county on Saturday last,
and did much damage
Around Walkersville. McKaig, New
Market, Mount Airy, Woodsboro, and
New Midway there was some hail. From
the reports the hail must have been
worse about McKaig than in any other
section OF the county. Corn fields were
badly cut, but as the corn is about made,
the damage will be comparatively light,
excepting in the fields of late corn. Con-
siderable fruit was blown from the
trees.
In Frederick practically all of the dam
age was confined to the Fair Grounds.
The large doors recently hung in front
of the grand stand, to keep out the
rain and snow, and had not
been fastened at the bottom. The doors
are in two sections, and the high wind
caused them to swing up and back.
One row of chairs in the reserved seat
section was broken, several benches
were demolished, and one or more of
the doors split. The damage, however,
will not amount to much.
The tin roof of the slaughter house in
the yard of Clinton B. Willard, West
Patrick street, was blown off by the
storm.
At the western edge of Frederick no
rain fell, and at Middetown there was
only light sprinkle.
Near Walkersville the barn of Mr.. A.
G.. Mckinney was struck by lightning.
The barn, however, did not take fire.
Such an occurrence is rather unusual.
There is a strong probability that the
lightning missed striking anything of
highly inhammable nature. The roof
was badly shattered.
Considerable hail fell about Hagers-
town and to the north of that city during
the storm on Saturday night
AT New Midway the residence of Jno.
Albaugh was struck by lightning. The
roof was shattered by the bolt.
AT the cannery at Wakersvlle the
storm tore loose one of the tents in
which the hucksters sleep and tore it in
Shreds
All over the eastern section OF the
county telephones were put out of serv-
ice, and number of trees blown
down, some carrying the wires with

MEANDERING.

A city girl writes at is a fond dream
Of mine to become farmers, wife and
meander with him down liie's flowery
pathway" All, yes, that is very nice
thing to dream about, but when YOU have
lived on the farm and followed this mean
dering business for "a month or SO,
YOU will discover a wide chasm between
the dream and the reality. You will
think of this about the time that your
husband meanders off and leaves you
without wood, and YOU have to meander
up and down the lane pulling splinters
off of the fence with which to cook din
ner. And when you meander around
in the wet clover in search of the cows,
then you will have dim perception that
fond dreams do not always pan out
hundred cents on the dollar, and that
there are several meanderingS in farm
life that are not listed in the dream cate
CORY. The meandering business on the
farm is not what it is cracked up to be.

A SENSELESS HABIT.

The young lady that habitually uses
slang IN her conversation cannot have
very exalted opinion of herself. The
estimate placed upon her by those who
hear her use it is certainly not high one.
1t sounds coarse and vulgar when used
by man, but when used by a woman
its tone is degrading and repulsive. How
often one hears young lady speak of
the children as kids. " That word comes
from the slang of English thieves. Not
exactly proper word for lady's use,
is it? Mash" is another word in COM
mon use by young ladies of both high
and low degree. The word originates in
the immoral relation sustained by thief
and his mistress. 1t is essentially foul,
and when issuing from the lips of purity
and innocence gives a startling snock.
Even toughs thieves and disreputables,
of either sex, who know the whole vo-
cabulory of slang, seldom, if ever, use
a single word of it in the presence OF
honest people. Slang, in English, has
but two sources-thieves and showmen;
and any young person who initiates
those classes either in conduct or III con-
versation, is plentifully endowed with
lack of good, common sense.

in Milwaukee, Wis, where the Shuberts

LACK OF COURTESY.

Trifiing dircourteses of speech and
manners constantly INDUCED in, do more
to destroy the peace and harmony of
a household than an occasional war of
words which lasts for briet period and
is then at an end Chief among the
causes that create murky home atmos-
phere is the habit OF ''nagging'' at one
another. Husbands and wives give ex-
preston to every and any petty feeling
of irritation, and they handy words back
and forth until some mole hill assumes
the proportions of mountain. A ten
dency to nag goes on unchecked among
the children, and almost before the par
ents are aware of it there is chronic
condition of unpleasantness in the home.
Young married people, especially, need
to learn control in this direction. An
other disagreeable trait to be guarded
against is the habit, peculiar to some
people, of always being on the opposite
side of question. Call attention to the
good points of book, person, a
public movement, work of art, or what
not, and this individual is ever ready to
interpose. 'Yes-but." Conversation
in such home gives one the chills.

beautiful; and if only our ideas of beauty
were what they should be, we might
accomplish our desire easily. Meekness
and love make all of our faces pleasant
Were we good we should be beautiful.
We all feel this. There are plain feat
ures SO charming with the sparkle of
good humor that we instinctively love
them. There are blemished faces so
sweet that they are more pleasant to
look upon than the most perfect one.
After all, it is in the expression that the
actual charm lies. So that were some
