Loss In Frederick County Estimated At
$15O,OOO. Little Insurance Carried.
Two Barns Near Thurmont Totally Wrecked.
Possibly Will Have To Be Torn Down.

Probably the worst storm ever visiting
this section of the country occurred Sun
day night, March LIST.
Early Sunday morning indications were
for snow or rain, and about 10 O'Clock
mixture of rain and snow began to fall.
A mild wind also began to blow and grad
ually increased in fury as the day advanc-
ed. At dark, the wind became worse,
and blew gale throughout the night and
until Monday evening, when it gradually
dimini he'd in force. During part of Sun
day night and the greater part of Mon
day snow fell and at times it was difficult
to see more than 100 feet.
During Sunday night large, substantial
houses were rocked by the gale, and caus-
ed many persons remain beside the stove
or arise from their beds and seek com
fort in their sittingrooms, the worst of
he blow being from II to O'Clock.
Early Monday morning reports Of dlm-
age caused by the wind began to circu-
ate and as the day advanced it was found
hat the storm was the worst ever visit
ng this section of the State and that
thousands of dollars damage had been
done.
Barns Demolished.
Mr.. Latimore Schildt who resides just
at the edge Of Thurmont on the farm re.
Gently owned by Warner Grimes, is the
heaviest loser, locally. The large new
bank barn 50xl00 feet built by Mr.. Grimes
several years ago, is total wreck, the
greater portion of the frame having been
blown into the barnyard. A good binder
and drill and threshing machine which
were in the building were wrecked. The
binder and thresher belonged to Grimes.
The heavy frame work under the barn
saved the horses and cattle from injury.
A large new henhouse across the road
from the barn was blown over and de-
molished; part of the roof blown from
another building and number of win
dows broken in the house. The corncrlb
and WagonShed at the soutn end OF the
barn remain standing, but are partly I'M
rooted. Monday after dinner when the
extent of the damage was learned about
20 men with hammers and hatchets BRAY
ed the storm and assisted Mr.. Schildt in
patching the floors of the mows so as to
protect his cattle from the wind and drift
ing snow, The wall of the building was
not much damaged.
The large bank barn on the old Black S
Mill farm, now owned by Mr.. William
Stoner, was blown from its foundation
and demolished. The farm is tenanted
by MIR. Curtis Stambaugh who suffered
the loss of horse, 3 cows and calf.
The walls of this barn gave away and the
frame fell on the cattle.

Worcester Farmers Should
Raise More Hogs.

The oldest resident says that not near
50 many hogs are raised in Worcester
County as there were twenty years ago.
and ne cannot understand why this
neglect, unless I Is because Of the great
loss Of hogs in the past few years from
cholera

years ago raised hogs in large numbers
and cured practically all the bacon
necessary to feed the people 81 that
section At this time, that cannot be
said Of single southern state and q
but few individual counties in this part
Of the United States There is one
county Of Georgia though that is show
ing the South what can be done IL the

the distinction of raising and selling
more bacon than any other county in
Georgia. The county sold last year
nearly 500, 900 worth Of bacon What
is done in Brooks county. il il believed,
according to a bulletin issued by the
Department OF Agriculture could be-
done in every county in the South This
would put the farmer on a better fnan-
cial footing because there is a great
demand for hogs

a pretty fair arrangement, and they
can take up some of those off days

didn't have many off days, anyhow,
so 1t won't make very much differ

Mr.. Galloway plays frequently, too,
and Mr.. Ryan admits to having tried
it, a few times so there isn't a di-

financial way He asserted that
though he would be glad to play in
Boston, he would never accept the

EVERS said he appreciated the I'M

taken by the board of directors of the
National League in giving him a
hearing and upholding him in his
fight against the, Cub boss by guar
anteeing the salary to which he is
entitled under his contract, but as
serted that this would not cause him

subjected to pressure to yield from

BY A. n, c. Mitchell.

TT is reported that Ban Johnson
may issue orders barring
baseball clowns from the
coaching lines in American
League cities. 1t is said that this
action will be taken on complaint
of several club owners who object
to the antics of Schaefer and Alt
rock, of the Washington club.
Among others who have pro-
tested at the antics of the Sena-
torial comedians is Manager
Birmingham. of the Maps.
NJ lex and Germany ars couple
~ of funny fellows when they
turn loose their best stuff on the
ball field and they have caused
laughs at many an otherwise
doleful game Of ball. But base
ball men Of good judgment have
declared against their cut ups on
the coaching lines as tending to
cheaper the game.
NJ ANAGER GRIFFITH, of the
4SI Washington team, pays sal
aries to these men largely for
the fun they create among their
fellow players. 1t is not alone
on the ball field that Griffith be-
lieves they are valuable, but also
around the hotels at night. He
believes the pair prove a diver
sion that helps keep the minds OF
his young players from taking
things too seriously when they
are not actually engaged in play
ing ball

ers and when either or both of
them failed TO deliver the goods
from the coaching boxes, Grif

and try to rattle the opposing
pitcher.

~ OF thing too far. II is report
ed that one Of the players who
jumped to the Federal League
gave as his reason that Griffith
had said things to him from the
coaching box last season that he
should not have said.
II seems that in a tight place,
where a hit would win the game
