MERCHANTS PROTEST ACTION
IN LAYING OFF MANY
EMPLOYEES.

Winchester, Dec. 20.--The econ
omy knife of the Baltimore and
Ohio Railroad has been cutting right
and left on the Shenandoah division
during the week now closing.
When 1t was reported recently
that upward OF 1000 employees would
be laid off at various places all over
the system, one OF the head officials
here said this division would not be
affected, as the company was then
employing the smallest number Of
men possible. and that the services
OF none of them could be dispensed
with. However, some of them have
been laid off. others given dual posi-
tons at less pay, and still others
transferred to Brunswick In fact,
the name Shenandoah division" is
but a memory. as this part of the
road has been added to the Baltimore
division. Men who have served the
company anywhere from twenty-five
TO more than forty years continuous
ly have either been laid off without
a days notice or given jobs carrying
at least one-third less pay.
The railroad company has also
taken off two passenger trains on
this division, refuses TO allow per-
sons TO ride on a mixed train that
for years made an important con-
nection with the Southern Railway at
Strasburg Junction, and now con-

the lower Shenandoah valley and
the West Virginia border counties tell
Of great deal of damage having
been done to apple and peach or

froze four inches thick in numerous
instances. and hundreds of older
trees were stripped OF large and
small branches. A great deal of re-
planting will have to be done

ABOUT BURNING HOUSE

Alexander, Dec. 20.--Fires of any
magnitude that occur in this city In
the future will be "roped off," as is
done in the majority Of other cities.
The material for this purpose has
been procured by the fire committee
and Is now ready for use. Owing to
the fact that the volunteer fremen
are at times greatly hampered In
their work in handling fires by the
decided to- take this course. None
but active volunteer f1remen will

A. P. Sheppard. candidate for nom nation for street supervisor on the Democratic ticket, is making a telling canvas in the interests of his can,i dacy. Mir.

Also he has the advan. tage of being known in connection with street department work and is cred. ited with some of the pest work in it's history. done under the administru tion of Jimmy Mcdonald. duri which NIT. Sheppard was his chief foreman. It is said of MT. Sheppard by his for. mer superior that he Is one man in a thousand in 5he matter of seelr E things to do and doine them without the necessity of pressure. Also says Mcdonald, Sheppard is ever on what. ever job he may be at and can be de. pended upon for results all of the time If chosen for street suDofvisor it is the conviction of his friends and ac. quaintances that the city will have the services of man who will shirk no opportunity to make his position de liver results for the taxpayers.

ON OFFICIAL BUSINESS.

United States Deputy Marshall Jimmy Mcdonald left yesterday for Douglas on an official mission. He is expected back this morning.
 Several Bisbee and Douglas people have been served with subpoenaes in the last few days to appear before the Federal Court at Phoenix in the case of Jim Hong. Chinese restaurant pro- prietor, for a number Of years engaged in business in Canansa and well known in this city and to people in Douglas and Naco. Jim Hong strayed over the line quite a while back. At Tucson he was unfortunately recognized by those who knew that he should be in Cananea. The consequence was that he was arrested and that the United States officers have since been busy paving the way for his return to China. The last steps to this end are expected to be taken in the approaching trial at Phoenix.

Did you ever have dealer offer you large bottle of something and tell you it was better remedy for the hair than Newbro's Herpiclde and cheaper because in a larger bottle2
 What? Certainly we knew you had. Many other people have. too.
 What would you say to that same dealer were he 10 tell you silver dol lar was worth more than a lye-dollar gold piece because it k larger.
 Such an attempt being reflection upon your good sense you would prob ably say some rather pointed things to him. You would be justified. Your self-respect would demand it.
 Well. there are just as many good reasons for the difference in size be. tween those bottles as there are for the difference in size between the sill yer dollar and the five dollar gold piece
 The truth is that the large bottle isn't half large enough.
 There Is more virtue in half pint of Newbro's Herpieide than in a gal. lon Of some of the so-called hair prep arations.
 There Is a dollars worth of results in the bottle of Herpicide, but do yon know what is in the othcr2

The Only One of His Kind

Sousa and his band. with Miss Vir- ginia Root, soprano, and Miss Mabel GIuck, vioIiniste, and Herbert L. Clarke cornetist, as special soloists, are soon to be heard in concert here at the Auditorium. The exact date is Wednesday, November 18th. The fact itself is all that is necessary to be an nounced. for the reason that the gen. eraI public know quite as much as we do about John Philip Sousa, his band, his music and his methods. Sousa is not an experiment. He is like Mark Twain in the library. or Edison with the telephone and phonograph. He is the one and only of his kind. It was many years ago that Sousa came here first with his incomparable band, but listen ,-Sousa is not poor man, and he won't always care to endure the fatigue and self-sacfifice attending the tours with his big band, success ful as he always has been. MT. Sousa will surely be here with his band on next Wednesday afternoon and con duct the concert at the Auditorium ct 2:15 o'clock
