DtAiH OF VIM. B. HENRY. OF ADDE.
PECULIAR CIRCUMSTANCES.

| AANnly WdS DOIu May f..
1867, was married to Miss VI. E.
Paris Feb. 26, 1891. He professed
faith in Christ, August 1893 under
preaching of Revs. Simms and Bart
lett, both were of unusual evange-
llstlc gifts. Six years later he join-
ed the Scott's Creek Baptist church
and was baptized by Rev. w. Er
Connor, an influential minister of
this county.
For many years Bro. Henry has
been a faithful member cf the
church. In January of this year
he and his wife were dismiss
ed from the SCOTS Creek church to-
join at Addie, where their children
belong. They joined there on
Sunday, Feb. 8, exactly a week be-
tore he was taken sick-the same
place and not far from the same
time. The church was greatly
pleased to have him and his wife
join at Addie; fattered themselves
that they had years O. service in
this excellent couple.
Mr.. Henry was an excellent SIND
er, and took special delight in build
ing up the choir at Addie. The:
writer once heard them do some
fine singing. AS leader of singing
ne was ready with an appropriate
song for all occasions; was of es-
pecial value in a revival. He took
great interest in new music. Every
community needs such a leader as
Bro. Henry; in fact needs more than
one.
He had an appointment to sing
with the Beta choir Sunday after.

choir to sing in the forenoon. They

WOODEN FLUMES ARE COSTLY
Extremely WastefuI Of Water, Soon
Pulling Apart and Crackins-con-
crete 10 Best Material.

Wooden fumes are still built In
come sections. Notwithstanding the
progress that is being made in irriga'
tion development. The first cost OF
these is high In most places. but no
matter how cheap may be the cost OF
construction. 1t is generally the least
expense to put in the better systems
such as are in use in Wyoming. A
wooden fiume requires constant re
pairs. 1t is extremely wasteful of wa
ter, soon pulling apart and cracking
from the effects of the alternate
swelling and shrinking of the mate
rials. 1t is expensive to build and
maintain a fiume anywhere. especially
across broken or rolling land. OF ne
ceesity a fiume must be built on a uni
form grade. 1t is therefore necessary
that 1t should be supported on a trestle
or embankment across low places. The
embankment is subject to injury from
burrowing gophers and both trestles
and embankments are subject to wash
outs and the more modern theory is to
obviate all this trouble by putting in
concrete conduits or syphons conform
ing to the lay of the land and having
enough strength to withstand a me
dium pressure.

Smallpox Quarantine

Anything handled by patient during
the stage of eruption may communicate
the disease. A letter written by such
one might carry smallpox across the
continent.
Therefore, nothing whatever is to be
taken out of a quarantined house, or
from smallpox patient. without first
being disinfected. Remember that this
applies TO money as we'll as everything
else.
Cats and dogs may carry the disease.
Kill them or shut up very carefully,
Cats and dogs from quarantined houses
found at large will be killed by the mar
shall.

Municipal Notes.

City Engineer Crum, accompanied by
Aldermen Cutler aud Grove left for the
receiver on Fishing creek, where thew
will make an inspection o; the excavation
made for the foundation of the dam to be
built across Fishing creek, preparatory
to constructing the dam.
Water Superintendent Burck had three
men on the mountain eXcavating for the
foundation. Depending upon the situa-
ton will rest whether the Board of AL
dermen will order the work upon the
construction of the dam to proceed.
Engineer Crum stated that in many
quarters there seems to be false opinion
concerning the dam, impoundng the wa
tiers of the receiving basin. This DAM he
states, is built of stone, and that at the
base is about nine feet wide, and slopes
toward the top, where it is only about 3
and one-half feet wide.
Mr.. Crum has placed screenings on
Elm street and rolled it. Tarvia had
been applied some time ago. The street
is now in excellent condition.
On Tuesday the city began oillng West
Patrick street, Dust had become quite a
nuisance on this street.
City Engineer Crum stated that shortly
the city will begin the erection Of shed
on its lots near the City Light Plant,
where the street roller, the street sprink
Ter and the new street sweeper will be
housed. This will be done as soon as
the street force can be spared from other

The Plea of the Railroads.

Perhaps there has been no stronger
concrete statement OF the argument that
backs up the plea of the railroads
of the United States for author
ity to raise freight rates than that which
appears in the annual report OF Presiden,
Willard, of the Baltimore and Ohio Rail-
road. His road within three years, has
spent a total of over SIoo, 100000 in inn
provements Its running expenses through
increases of wages, and other costs, in
Guiding higher wages, and other costs,
including higher prices for material, have
gone up $40 600, 900 year.
President Willard asks for "tiat" adj
vance; with no discrimination in the
classes OF freight and no element calcu-
lated to disturb business conditions. His
demand is based in a measure on the be.
lief that at present business is good, and
that the stockholders of his road and OF
the other roads should share in the COM
mon prosperity.
To the thinking man it is clear enough
that the interest OF the public is more In
having efficient service, and equal serN-
ice than in having the lowest rates.
And it is likewise clear that If wages are
to 90 up the shippers should bear part
of the burden.

Hagerstown Horse Show

The ninth annual exhibition of the

18TH 10th and 18th, in connection with
the Great Hagerstown Fair.
The Horse Show this year promises to
be the best that ever was held at the
Great Fair. Several hundred horses are
expected to be entered Last year ST.,
1873 in prizes were awarded to the win
ners in the Horse Show. The prizes
this year will not be less.
DR.. r. H. Smith. the manager of the
Horse Show, is receiving many requests
for entry blanks from horse owners in
many parts of Maryland and the adjoin-
ing States.
The Horse Show for years has been
one of the best features of the Great
Fair. Some OF the best horses of four
States can be seen in the October show.
No charge is made to see the Horse
