Auto Speeders Arrested.
20 Drivers Halted Last Week
In MiddletOWn.

For long time Middletown has beer
complaining about autoists driving their
machines through the town at speed
limit. On Wednesday of last week when
the State Road was lined with machines
bound for the Frederick Fair, the Com
missioners of Middletown had Mr. Glenn
Nikirk, of that place, patroling the road
within the town limits on his motorcycle,
and by 3 o'clock 20 arrests had been
made. Each driver was fined SIS 90 and
costs, total of $500. No machine was
stopped that was running under 20 miles
any hour, the speed limit of the town be-
ing II miles.
Mr.. Nikirk would follow each machine
and when the speedometer on his motor
cycle would register 20 miles he would
run along side of and halt the machine.
Evidently the action of the town COM
missoners will put stop to fast driving
through the valley town, as the occur
renee will be published in daily and week
ly papers in many cities throughout the
east.
The State Road through Middletown is
somewhat similar to that passing through
Thurmont, viz. up grade or down grade,
according to the direction Travelled. Many
drivers in order to avoid changing gear
going up grade, run their machines very
fast or beyond the regulation speed limit.
If. the Commissioners of Thurmont
would have placed motorcycle cop on
the street last week we doubt if the
number of arrests would not have ex-
ceeded those made at Middletown.
Some weeks ago it became necessary
for the Commissioners of Thurmont to
take action against speeding, and the
matter should not be allowed to 60 UNI
noticed in the future.
The Frederick News, speaking editoh
lily in regard the Middletown arrests
says:
"Because of Mildletown's enforce
ment of the speed law. a howl of com
plant has gone up from some of the
motorists. and several newspapers have
published articles severely condemning
the town for conducting such a crusade.
Middletown is not to be criticised, but
rather to be commended for this effort
to provide for the safety of her citizens.
Probably for fear of just such abuse as
has been heaped upon Middletown, many
communities do not strictly enforce speed
laws, which are needed for the protec-
ton of the public. Middletown is GER
tainly justified in this antispeed crusade.
More than that, it is the positive duty of
the town authorities to take such steps
for the safety and protection of the citi'
zens of Middletown.

Lost Or Stolen.
Purse and $4,000 Mysteriously
Disappears.

On Thursday of last week while at
work at the Western Maryland depot,
this place, a Mr.. McLain, one of the men
operating the oil tank on the State Road,
found that his pocket book was gone.
The discovery was made at or about the
time large crowd of people were wait
ing at the depot for trolley cars bound
for the Frederick Fair, many of whom
were interested in the filling of the tank
from a car on the siding.
Mr.. McLain states that he had $50. 90
in the purse. Looking everywhere he
had been and inquiring of persons he met
brought no news of where the purse and
money could be located.
Any person giving information leading
to the recovery of the purse and money
will be literally rewarded by Mr.. Nc
Lain.

wonderful stage prod uction of Omar

of Omar Khyyam, the poet whose ex-
quisite wonders Of verse found countless.
Mr.. Tully's achievement has been just
flied in the remarkable success of his
unique dramatic offering, nothing more
absorbing in dramatic ard poetic lines,
or more inspiring in its spectacular sur
roundings, and its attractive characteri-
cation has been seen upon the American
stage for mary years.
The story is fascinating in its romance,
in the magnetism of its environment.
and in the history of one of the most in
teresting men in the world; and unusual
in its varied episodes of life during the
stirring times of "Omar the Tentmaker",
(Tentmaker being the English for Khy-
