NO POSSIBILITY OF HELP
Actor Had Been Called on So Often
That Further Assistance Was
Out Of the Question.

When September Morn was in its
nnal week of rehearsal a bare spot
l n act III. gave unbounded annoyance
to the actors, and the managers, the
hbrettist, who was appealed to again
and again to do something to brighten
a scene which raj simply talk, and
yet could not be cut out without
throwing awry the stage directors
scheme Of songs, dances and costume
changes. The librettist at length
made this appeal to Dave" Lewis, the
star of the piece:
Say, old fellow, you've been a
comedian for 20 years and must have
a trunkful Of hokum. Won't you dig
down into it and fish up something
that will help us over this spot?''
Mr.. Lewis answer was:
I've been an actor for 20 years,
and | had a trunkful of hokum. But
I've dug down SO often fixing up the
first and second acts that the trunks
empty and there's a hole in the bot
toms"

er. a member Of the Minnesota Ma
tional Guard, a prominent business
man of st. Paul. at the Willard. The
passage Of a tariff bill had little or no
effect upon business, one way or the
other. 1t didn't appear to offend the
farmers. as 1t was claimed it would
on account Of the fear that they
would be injured by the shipments
Of Canadian grain into this country,
and 1t had no apparent effect upon the
shipments from Canada to the United
States. The shipments did not In

There was a little apprehension
apparent on the part of some of the
big bankers because Of the uncertain.
ty as to how The currency bill would
be received, but it was no sooner
passed than everybody accepted it in
the belief that it would relieve condi.

Barn and Crops Burn.

Another Frederick county barn, wheat

big array of destroyed buildings and
crops, when the big. bank barn of Yer

on Sunday evening, August and, during

with its contents. was burned to the
ground, entailing loss of about $4,000

The building was struck bv lightning,
during a slight hailstorm in that section
OF Frederick county. The Smith family
had Just entered the house from the ve-
randa to escape the dashing rain. when

crash of thunder, took Mr.. Smith to
the door of his home. He looked to-
wards the barn and saw the flames
shooting from the assures of the build

had gotten to the barn. the flames had
lgnited practically every portion of the
barn. Two calves were saved from the
barn, together with few sets of harness

Factoriee ReadY to Pack.

The three canning factories in Fred
erick have practically completed their
work of getting their factories in read
mess for the big hauls of sugar corn
that will be made during the next two
months by Frederick county farmers.
1t would not be surprise if the farmers
begin hauling corn this week.
At the factories IN Frederick, it was
reported that good yield is expected.
and it was also reported that an average
acreage was put out in corn this spring.
At the Monocacy Valley Canning Com
pany, it was stated day or two ago,
that the usual amount of acres has been
put in sugar corn and at the Colt and
Dixon Factory, it was said that the acre
age is Just about the same for their fac
tory as in 1913. Corn has had very
rapid growth and it is hard to tell
whether the corn will be matured suffi-
ciently to pack by the end OF this week
or not, although the Frederick City
Packing Company is getting in readiness
for the first haulers.
AT the Colt and Dixon Packing Com
pany it was stated that if the work at the
factory, did not begin on Saturday the
operations would surely commence on
Monday.
