and Received His Own.

Last week the case of William c.
Bond VS.. an Insurance Co., was tried
in Tucker County, W. Va. 1t will be
recalled that last year Mr.. Bond was
arrested by the Insurance Company,
wLich carried the insurance upon his
mill property which had burnt up, upon
the charge of setting fire to the mill
Mr.. Bond had no trouble in proving
his innocence. He then brought suit
against the company for his losses.
The company undertook to establish a
claim that Mr.. Bond did not have prop
erty enough to cover the insurance.
Each side presented their testimony
and the case was given to the Jury,
which retired and in less than ten
minutes they returned a verdict in
favor of Mr.. Bond for the full amount
of his insurance and interest to date
This action completely indicated Mr..
Bond and gave him the insurance he
had purchased, and which should have
been paid to him Just after the fire.

S5OO.O0O,O0O TO AID FARMERS.
Williams Points Out That Mortgage
Loan Clause Is In Force.

Comptroller of the Currency Williams
estimates that about $500, 1000 in
national banks throughout the United
States is available for farm mortgage
loans under the provision of the Federal
Reserve act making it possible for
national banking associations to lend
money on improved farm lands.
Scores of inquiries concerning this
provision reach the Treasury Depart
ment daily. and there does not seem to
be general understanding that the
farm loan clause of the act is now in
force. and makes it possible irrational
banks to make farm loans before the
normal organization of the Federal Re-
serve Board.
Farm loans under this act are not to
be made for longer than five years, and
the amount Of each loan is not to ex-
coed so per cent, of the actual value of
the farm offered as security.

BITTINGER,
SOC sssssaSsSs,sst.ssss,s..,s.

A jolly party of Suffragists, who
made up little army of Mountain
Hikers visited this little hamlet, on
Wednesday, June 18th. There were
six intelligent ladies', enthusiastic for
the cause of Womans suffrage and
their addresses delivered at an open air
meeting held in Ellithorps grove, were
interesting and to the point, and ap-
parently carried some convictions with
them, for as a result of their canvas of
the audience, they secured the sigma
lures Of seventy persons who avowed
their sympathy with the movement.
County Commissioner, Ohio Fike, of
Avllton, passed through this village
early last week, on his way to McHenry
from which point, he in company with
his colleague, Commissioner Smith,
started on a tour of inspection over
the public roads in Districts No. 2 and
8.
Mr.. and Mrs. Mahlon Baker, drove
over to Somerset county, Pa, last
week, for few days visit with rela-
tives.
A severe frost visited this neighbor-
hood, on Monday night, June 18th,
killing all tender vegetation in low
places and near the mountain streams;
in some cases entire gardens were re-
ported destroyed by the freeze.

Sign Board Day Observed.

Sign Board Day was observed all
over Maryland. 1t is estimated that
more than two thousand persons en-
gagged in the work Of removing signs
and advertisements from fences and
trees along the public highways. A
number of citizens of Garrett county
county took part in the good work.
The Legislature has decreed and
public sentiment has proclaimed that
the advertising signs within the high
ways of the state must come down.
Any one who attempts to restore
these advertising signs to the public
roads will be liable to a fine and prosce-
cutiOn as it Is a misdemeanor under the
new law.
This movement for the elimination of
sign-boards is an expression Of the in
terest in preserving the beauty of the
natural surroundings unmarried by hide
Gus signs and posters, not only insight
ly in themselves but often obscuring
the most beautiful landscapes, We
take pride in the many miles of i'm
proved roads in the State and we are
also coming to realize that the attract
iveness of these good roads Is immeasur-
ably increased by shade trees with the
sign board nuisance eliminated.

PROTECTS DRY" STATES.
l, Constitutional Amendment Introduc
ed By Senator Dillingham;.

A constitutional amendment designat-
ed to protect "dry' states has been in
troduced in the United States Senate
by Senator Dillingham;, of Vermont.
Instead of prohibiting the sale for!beve-
rage purposes of Intoxicating liquor, as
the Hobson- Sheppard constitutional
amendment would, the Dillingham;
amendment would merely prohibit the
transportation of liquor into any state
for sale or use FOR any purpose contrary
to the laws of such state.
It's purpose is similar to the existing
Kenyon law, but it would remove all
question as to the validity of the legis-
latlon embrased in the Kenyon law.
The following states will vote on
prohibition this year: Colorado, Cali
fornia, Oregon, Virginia and Washing
ton. In 1915 Ohio and Idaho vote on
the same question.

gress by close margin. According to
Mr. Hilles the Republicans will have
ODD members and the Democrats 2l3.
The Republicans will fight to the finish
to regain control Of 1853 districts now
represented by Democrats, They enter
the fight confident of success in at least
80 Of these districts. Should they win
out on this proposition, the Republicans
would number ODD members in the

The DEATH RECORD
AMOS BROADWATER.

Amos Broadwater, formerly of Gar
rett county, Nd, died at his home near
Burkley's Mills June Sth. He was
aged II years, months and 20 days.
His death was due to carbuncle, after
about two weeks serious illness. Mr..
Broadwater, who had been a widower,
was married to the widow of the late
William D. Bear, about two years ago,
and the couple lived happily at the
latter's farm home. He had four sons
and two daughters by a former mar
riage, who will probably share his estate
with the widow. He was possessed of
considerable property and left a will,
the contents of which have not yet been
made public. The funeral took place
last Sunday at his former home at New
Germany. Md, the funeral services
were held in the Methodist church. It
was the request of the deceased that
Rev. Silas Hoover, of the Church Of
the Brethren, who had baptised him
many years ago. should preach his
funeral sermon. and he did so, his
discourse being pronounced one Of the
best ever heard in that neighborhood
on such an occasion. The funeral was
one of the largest ever held at New
Germany. Mr.. Broadwater was widely
known and people came many miles to
pay their last respects. The children
OF his second wife. including VI. I. and
W. Z. Bear, respected him as a step
father who was kind to their mother. and
his death is mourned by two famiie- as
well as by a large circle of friends.

point somewhat beyond where the
