MIDNIGHT Fire.

A midnight fire destroyed the combi-
nation hay and wagon shed, and con-
tents of Mr.. P. E. Leatherman, near
Lewistown, this county. causing loss of
about $4,000. AT least thousand dol
lars worth of property threatened by the
fire was saved by bucket brigade, COM
posed of more than one hundred and fifty
farmers and neighbors, who fought the
flames valiantly, although handicapped
by the lack OF water aud adequate fire
facilities.
1t is believed that the fire was of in.
cendiary origin. The interior of the
building was burning mass before the
flames had spread to the exterior Mr..
Leatherman said that the matter wonld
be given a thorough sitting and every
effort to run down the guilty person
would be made.
With the exception Of two employees
and three small children, Mrs. Leather
man was alone. Mr.. Leatherman had
left his home early in the morning to as
sist neighbor to move. The fire was
first noticed by man in Thurmont, who
telephoned to neighbor of Mr.. Leath-
erman. Mrs. Leatherman, believing
that the barn would be burned, went to
the stables and tnrned out the stock. be-
fore any sof the men had arrived at the

meeting on Saturday afternoon, March
18th, with all but two of the managers
present. After conferring a deed to a
small strip of land which the society has
conveyed to Mr.. and Mrs. Elmer Dixon,

cussed. The fair this year will be held
on October goth, 2Ist, 22nd and
23rd, with view TO getting the grounds
in ship shape condition for the big annual
event, steps were taken to begin work at
an early date.

fence in that portion of its property
which it year ago, and in 1912, pur-
chased from Mr.. Elmer Dixon. This will
add between four and five acres to the
Fair Grounds, thus relieving much con-
gestion, which is every year experienced.

Monocacy Marker Site Picked.

The site for the Monocacy marker, TO
be erected by the Fitzhugh Lee Chapter
United Daughters of the Confederacy,
was selected at the meeting on Tuesday
evening. The site is on knoll that has
contiderable interest and history attached
to it. In September 1862, the headquar-
tiers of. the Army of Northern Virginia
was in Best's Grove, in the rear of the
spot selected General Lee and staff had
their observation tent on the knoll where
the marker will be placed.
1t is the intention OF the chapter to un-
veil the marker on July 9. the hftieth an,
niversary of the battle.
Mrs. William Anderson read an article
from the Charlotte, N. c., News, which
gave an interesting reminiscence of Sep
tember, 1862, when the Southern Army
entered Frederick and the events which
led to the writing Of Whittier's poem,

Crushed Beneath a Train.

| Caught on an east-bound track, Lester
| B. Funk, of Dickerson. was struck by a
| special east bound freight, near Fred
erick Junction, on Saturday afternoon,
| March 2Sth. about p 80 O'Clock, dragged
neally one hundred teet beneath the car
wheels and instantly killed. The train
never stopped. A trainman Of a west
bonnd freight train which passed Fred
erick Junction about fifteen minutes later,
reported the accident at Frederick juno
ton. The number of the engine that hit
Funk was 4I24
The man was horrblg mangled. Both
arms and legs were severed from the
body. The body was found along the
track, and his arms and legs were strewn
along the cross ties for a distance of
nearly hundred feet. His body was cut
and bruised, while the right side OF his
chest was crushed IN. His face was
crushed almost beyond recognition.
Justice Aaron r. Anders and Deputy
Sheriff Haller, and DR.. c. Fl. Conley
went to the scene of the accident. JUS
tee Anders decided that an inquest was
unnecessary. DIR. Conley said that death
was instantaneous.
Funk, who had been in Frederick on
Saturday. left the train at Frederick
Junction to walk to the home of his
father, Mr.. s. C. Funk, of Rhie's Mills.
He walked the ties across the Monocacy
Bridge, and had gone about quarter of
mile, when the freight train struck him.
No theory has been advanced for
Funk's presence on that SPECIAL track as
the freight steamed near Frederick juno
tion. There was no other trains in sight
and it is claimed that he could not have
been bewildered. The engine struck
him Squarely but instead of tossing him
to the side of the tracks, dragged him
under the wheels. 1t is thought that
many cars passed over his body, which
was dragged about one hundred feet
