H0YES METHODIST CHURCH
WAS STRUCK BY LIGHTNING
thursdays Loss Will Reach Several
Hundred Dollars.

During the very severe rain storm
which passed over that section of the
county north of Oakland last Thursday,
lightning struck the Methodist Episcopal
church at HoYes, causing loss of sew
eral hundred dollars to the building.
Fortunate it was that the church was
not entirely DESTROYED. To the credit
of the trustees of the church, the build
ing was insured, hence the loss will be
covered by insurance. The lightning
struck the top of the cupola, ran down
the side of the cupola, tearing up part
of the slate roof, following a chimney.
tearing up the roof rafters, the light
ming reached the floor carrying de-
struction in Its pathway.
The ceiling was more or less damaged.
The building was visited by many per-
sons who desired to see the havoc play
ed by the storm. As soon as the in
surance adjuster investigates the
amount of loss sustained. work will be-
gin on restoring the building to its
original condition.

JUDGE HENDERSON
SUSTAINS DEMURRER.
Injunction Against Building Oakland
Goriner Road Will Not Issue.

As was anticipated by those who at
tended the court last week and heard
the arguments of the attorneys for and
against the demurrer to the order for an
injunction prohibiting the State Roads
Commission, the County Commissioners
and the contractors from building the
Oakland-Gortner State aid road, Judge
Robert H. Henderson. who heard the
case and took the matter under con-
sideration, last Saturday announced his
decision, sustaining the demurrer and
gave the contestants ten days to fill an
amended bill to show cause why the
order should not be dismissed.
Work on this road is progressing
rapidly. The first course of broken
rock is being put down. The rock is
secured from the Gender land, adjoining
Oakland, under contract of J. A. Kelly.
A temporary bridge was built across
the little Yough. The delivery of rock
began on Monday and from that time
until now teams have been constantly
engaged in delivering the rock to the
road bed, where it is broken to meet
the requirement of the contract.

FOURTH OF JULY REFLECTION.

Garrett county Is the youngest county
of the State of MARYLAND, and the
largest county. 1t is the mountain
county of the State, and only a few
years back was called the "back woods
county" with poor roads, few school
houses, many log cabins and plenty of
woods. That day has gone forever.
Good roads, good as anywhere in the
State, are spreading over the county.
good school buildings, fine church edi-
fees and modern homes are here. The
wood lands are disappearing and in
their stead are seen fertile farms. The
telephone and telegraph lines are
circling the entire county.
The tallow candle and oil lamp have
been supplanted by natural or acetyline
gas, and electricity in the village, cities
and farm homes. The log stable is
passing away and in its stead is the
modern barn of today with all the
latest machinery and a sIlo attached.
Up-to-date farm implements are in use.
The farmer and his family enjoy the
rapid moving automobile for pleasure
and the auto truck for business. Full
blooded stock is increasing and splendid
horses are taking the place of scrubs.
Garrett county is on the up grade,
stepping to the very front, taking its
place among the best and most prosper
Gus counties of Maryland. Our boys
and girls are taking a high rank in the
business and professional world Our
citizens are refined, cultured and pros
porous. These are facts. No one can
successfully deny them.
THE REPUBLICAN believes in the best
of Garrett county; rejoices in its marve-
lous success and development and in its
great possibilities. in a great, bright,
happy coming Garrett county.
Great has been the stride made in the
past, but a grander, more glorious day
is in sight. Happy homes. more pros
porous homes, a united, wide awake
intelligent people are being developed.
By reason of the Speicher Local Option
bill next November Garrett county, the
mountain county, the most western
county, the back woods county will
Danish the foul fiend, the destroyer OF
manhood, the wrecker of homes. the
crrse of our land, forever from its midst
and take one grand. mighty step to the
very foremost rank of civilization and
Christianity.
THE REPUBLICAN is thankful to be
connected with this people and have a
humble part in their great achievement.
Here is to a greater better, more
prosperous Garrett county.

GARRETT COUNTY CHERRIES RIPE
Everybody Picking or Buying Cherries
at Orchards.

For the first time in many years GER
tain localities in Garrett county have
an abundant crop of cherries. The
trees are loaded with delicious ripe
fruit. In the neighborhood of Eglon,
Hoyes, Accident and McHenry cherry
pickers are busy at work. From far
and near buyers have called at the farm
homes to buy this enjoyable fruit. Even
on Sunday scores of people picked
cherries. BY buggy, carriage and auto
mobile came cherry buyers. The price
was, pick your own cherries 10 cents
gallon; already picked Is cents gallon,
sweet or sour, and free from stems.
On one farm twenty pickers found en-
ployment Monday. Ten cents a gallon
was paid for picking. Hundreds of
gallons were sold in Oakland at % and
30 cents gallon for clean, fine cherries.
Fortunate indeed were those farmers
who owned cherry trees and happy
were their wives and delighted were
those who purchased the fruit.
