Railway Buys Electric Light
Plant.

The Hagerstown and Frederick Rail-
way Company has taken over the plant
of the Frostburg Illuminating and Manu-
featuring Company, under the approval
OF the Public Service Commission. This
plant supplies Frostburg and the vicinity
with electric power. The plant has been
inspected by an efficient corps OF engi
neers, and is considered an excellent
proposition.
This is perhaps the first active step of
the Railway Company to make effective
the new policy of the company, since adj
ditional capital has been thrown into the
company. New impetus has been given
to the railway company, and as the man.
agement sees fit, additional property will
be acquired.
1t is understood that the company will
make some important changes at the
Frostburg plant. The plant now is op-
Grated by steam power, and it is very
probable that in The near future other
motive power will b. used. although it is
thought now that it would be impractical
BILE to use power from the big Security
plant. One thing is certain, and that IS,
that the operating expenses of the plant
will be cut down. Under the direction
of the engineers of the company changes
will be made that will increase the re-
ceipts from the plant.
When the new financing scheme Of the
company went through it was then de-
cided that the Frostburg plant be ac-
quired.

Fairy Land of Light at Braddock
Casino.

Myriads of lights glowing through in
tertwined garlands of holly and laurel
covering the ceiling of the Casino at
Braddock Heights, will make the inter-
ior of that place resemble the Million
Dollar Pier at Atlantic City this summer.
This is the plan of the management of
the big summer amusement place, and
they intend to put other ideas into effect
that will place the Braddock Casino in
the front ranks of the hot weather
Meccas.
The whole plan is to make the interior
and exterior of the building as summery
as possible.
Cozy corners will probably be installed
in each corner of the hall Plans for
this delightful innovation were started
recently, when six Of the most advanced
students in Domestic Science at Hood
College, accompanied the manager OF
the Casino to Braddock Heights and
after thorough survey of the Casino,
suggested plans for the erection Of the
COW corners.
They will be beautiful and sylvan like
retreats of lattice work, covered with
vines and flowers. Broad, green cushions
and appropriate interior decorations will
be added, and each corner will furnish a
delightful resting place after the dances.

City High School One of the

lust twenty years ago class of nine
young men met one September morning
in tiny room over stove store, where
Baumgardner' Cafe is now located, on
North Market street, this CITY, and be-
came members of the Boys High School
of Frederick. Md, under the able teach
ing OF Professor Anon Burgee. This
handful OF pupils comprised what was
then the student body of the Frederick
High School. and the rapid growth of
the institution and the standing it now
main nins with the prominent colleges
and universities in the country, allows it
to boast of record, which probably can
not be equaled by any public school in
the United States.
During the past twenty years there has
been but one principal of the school,
for since that day in the little room over
the stove store to the present time, when
4 there are one hundred and sixty-seven
cadets enrolled in the institution, with its
big and beautiful building on the out
skirts of Frederick, Professor Burgee

LET PRISONERS HAVE THEM

Anyone having old books or mag
azines for which they have no further
use may serve worthy purpose with
them by leaving them at the Y. M. G..
A. some time this week. Word has
come that there is a shortage of good
reading matter at the Ohio peniten-
tiary at Columbus and that any con-
tributions Of magazines or books will
be appreciated. To supply the 100
inmates of this state institution with
plenty of suitable reading matter is
a problem to which every citizen
should give his support. State peni-
tentiaries are no longer looked on as
means of punishment, but rather as
reformatories and there is no better
way Of carrying out this enlightened
idea than by giving the prisoners
good reading matter.
