Western Maryland Railway Notes.

General Superintendent A. r. Mer-
rick, of the Western Maryland Rail-
way Company, announces the appoint
ment of f. L. Brendel as superinLend-
ent of the Middle Division of the COM
pany, to succeed III. il. Berry, who has
resigned his position. Mr.. Brendel
was formerly superintendent OF the
western division of the company. He
will make his headquarters i'm Hagers-
town.
R. M. Johnson, formerly inspector
OF transportation of the Western
Maryland, succeeds Mr.. Brendel as
superintendent of the Eastern Divis-
ion. He will make his headquarters
in Baltimore. The post of inspector
of transportation has been abolished.
The new appointments affect men
who enjoy well-earned reputation in
the railroad world. Both of these be-
gan at the bottom, but by close appli-
cation to business and the ability to
quickly grasp the difficult problems of
railroading, have succeeded i'm win
ming promotions which have placed
them in the front rank among railroad
men.
MIR. Brendel is an old Western Mary.
official and employ of the company.
He has filled every position with the
road IN manner which has won for
him the admiration of all who know
him. Early in his career, Mr. Bren-
del was connected with the Baltimore
and Ohio Railroad, but left the service
or that company to enter into business
Tor himself. He then drifted into rail-
road work again, and has followed
ra1lroading as a career ever since,
Mr. Brendel was an operator and made
good In that position, and was ad-
Vanced. As chief train dispatcher, he
displayed unusual ability as a rail-
roader, and was promoted to the post
or train master on what was then
known as the Maryland division of the
Western Maryland. As a reward for
this good work, he was made superin-
tendent of the Baltimore terminals of
the railway company, and held this
post until he was appointed superin-
tendent of the Eastern division of the
railway company, this appointment
made by General Superintendent Mer-
rick soon after he came with the West
ern Maryland.
Mr.. Johnson, who now becomes
superintendent Of the Western divis-
ion, is considered one Of the most
capable men to be found with any
road. He came with the Western
Maryland from the Pere Marquette,
where he made splendid record. His
last position with that company was
that Of train master on the Detroit
division Along this division are 10
Gated the large auto manufacturing
concerns. Mr.. Johnson is exceedingly
popular with Western Maryland men.

CENTRAL RAILROAD NOW UNDER
CONSTRUCTION.
Built by Pennsylvania r. r. Between
Key Mar and Union Bridge-Out-
let for Cement Plant.

A new branch railroad, subsidiary
line to the Northern Central Railway,
is being built by the Pennsylvania
Railroad company between Key-Mar
and Union Bridge, Md. The large
plant of the Portland Cement Com
pany il located at Union Bridge and
the five and one half mile spur is be-
ing constructed to handle the heavy
cement shipments over the Pennsyl-
vania road. The branch will connect
with the York, Hanover and Freder-
ick branch at Key-Mar Immediately
south of the Western Maryland Rail
way junction. 1t will be known as
the Central Railway of Maryland.
The work on the new road was
started week before last. A large
force Of men has been put to work by
the contractor and the work will be
pushed as rapidly as possible. 1t is
expected that it will be completed and
i'm operation at the expiration of 60
days.
The section of country through
which the road will run IL somewhat
hilly, but the road will encircle the
hills and have hardly any grades.
There will be only one track.
w. ID. Cornwell, supervisor Of the
Columbia & Frederick branch, York,
will have charge of a portion of the
work of building the new branch. The
work of putting in 2,500-foot siding
at Key-Mar, to be used for hauling
supplies for the construction work, as
we'll as making the switch connec-
tions, will be done under his direction.
The switch will be later used to form
a portion of the new road. The work
is being started at the Key-Mar end of
the road.
The new branch will be an import
ant factor of the Northern Central
and will add greatly to the freight
tonnage over the York, Hanover and
Frederick branch. York will likely be
the junction point for the cement ship
ments handled over this road.
The road will pass through a rich
agricultural country and it is expected
that in years to come these resources
will add greatly to it's business.
The Central Railroad of Maryland,
by its attorneys, William J. OBrien,
Jr., and Edward o. Weant, has filed
in the Circuit Court in Baltimore it's
petition for condemnation of the land
of George P. Buckley, Jr., near Union
Bridge. The petition states that the
d
company is Maryland corporation
authorized to build railroad from a
point near Union Bridge to connect
with the York, Hanover and Frederick
Railroad at or near Keymar and to
construct branches to other points in
Carroll and Frederick counties.
Mr. Buckley, by Guy w. Steele, his
attorney, in answer to the petition
alleges that the company is not cor
poration; that it is not authorized to
construct and operate railroad; that
the proceedings sought to be enforced
are in conflict with the Constitution of
Maryland and with the Fifth Amend
ment to the Constitution of the United
States, and that the Central Railroad
of Maryland is the Tidewater Portland
Cement Company, foreign corpora
ton under another name, and that If
the road were constructed it would be
one of no benefit to the public, but
simply a private line of the cement
company, solely for the benefit OF
private individuals.

Thunderstorm Dangers.

When clouds are driven past one an
other by wind currents, electricity Of
a fractional kind is produced. Light
ming is caused by the passing of the
electricity between the two clouds, or
from cloud to the earth. As it
travels 1t expands and drives the air
in front OF it. When the lightning
has passed the ali that was driven
away returns with rush, and it II
this rush which causes the noise of
thunder.
Ii IL not safe to stand under a tree
during thunder storm, for lightning
usually strikes the highest object un-
derneath it, so that the electric cur
rent may travel down the tree and
strike the person who is taking shell
ter. The chief danger is standing un-
der an isolated tree; 20 stand under
one of thick group in wood Is not
so dangerous, indeed to stand alone
in the middle OF field with no tree
near, or i'm any isolated spot where we
happen to- be the highest thing among
cur surroundings

The Efficiency Of Buying at Home.

Did you ever stop to think what a
convenience it is to have a full line
of good retail stores at home in our
own community?
1t enables people to see goods at
any time before paying down money.
In that way the purchaser detects
many faults that could never be found
in buying from catalog cut.
Furthermore you get your goods
when you want them without boLher,
letter writing, or without the fatigue
of journey to big city and tramp
ing all over the streets. 1t is an
economy Of time, car fares, human
energy.
Furthermore, you can do your shop
ping at your leisure, when you are i'm
a mood for it, rather than i'm the haste
and furry Of trip out OF town. In
cur home stores you take all the time
you want to talk over your purchase
and inspect goods. You can positive
ly assure yourself that you are buying
right.
Furthermore you get more personal
and intelligent attention in a home
stor than anywhere else. The pro-
prietors and clerks must please home
trade, or get out of business. 1t is
human nature to take more pains for
people that are known than for
strangers. The home merchant will
60 the utmost limit to give satisfac-
tion for defects in the goods, and with
out irritating red tape.
When locating for residence or Dus-
mess, people are as slow to settle in a
place lacking good stores as in a
place where the water is not good.
If we want to draw in new resi-
dents, everyone must do his share to
provide them with the conveniences
of retail trade. The only way to do
this is to patronize the home mer-
chant.
1t is the good fortune of this COM
munity to have line of finely equipp-
ed stores. But if every dollar possi-
BILE were spent at home, these stores
could grow faster, put in fuller as
sortments, employ more clerks. Thus
they would contribute to the conven-
fence OF every resident, and add to the
prosperity or every property holder.

NO RELIEF I'm KANSAS.
Heat is Shrinking Farm Implements

Kansas City, Me-, Aug. 19.-Drought
conditions in Southeast Kansas, in
the vicinity of st. Joseph, Mo-, and
in the Wichita, Kan, district, were
little better today than before the
first showers in weeks fell last Sat
urday.
Blacksmiths are working day and
night repairing farm implements gone
To pieces because Of heat shrunken
parts. Wagon wheels are falling
apart. Automobile owners say heat
ID running their cars, breaking the
wood work till the paint scales OH,
and scorching the wheels until the
spokes shrink and rattle In the hubs.
Many new wells are being dug and
hardware dealers are doing double
business in windmills. Many farmers
are using tractors for plowing by day
and Harvesting them to pumps by
night.
Nearly every farm rs surrounded by
plowed fire guards, as Q spark In tne
dry grass and wheat stubble would
start a confagration- Many farmers
whose supply OF feed has been ruined
are feeding their hogs wheat, because
Az I'D cheaper than corn.
