43 Prisoners Now in the Freder.
lex Jail.

The Frederick County Iai Tuesday
contained 43 prisoners, Just one less than
it contained Monday, but even at this
the number is a high water mark for some
years. Monday eight prisoners were dis
charged from the institution, but as fast
as the prisoners left there was another to
take the place of the departing brothers,.
1t is said that three years ago there
were TO be found an unusually large num-
Der OF prisoners in the jail, but not for
probably the past decade has there been
such a gathering of those charged with
some infraction Of the criminal laws of
the state and city, as at present.
Sheriff Conard is caring for the multi
tude the best he can, and while condi.
tons are somewhat crowded he states
he still has room for more. Even with
this number Of prisoners, practically all
sleep on the tier, the row of ten cells
with balcony to the front. There is a
row OF cells on the lower floor, or base
ment, but the prisoners do not desire to
sleep here because it is rather cold. The
prisoners are allowed to sleep from three
to FIVE in each cell, and each prisoner is
given one blanket for covering.
The third tier of ten cells is kept for
women who may be taken to the Jail. At
present only two women are conhned to
this department. and they have plenty of
breathing room and sufficient space in
which TO exercise.
Each prisoner in the Jail must be up
bright and early, as about O'Clock is the
official breakfast hour at the jail, and at
this time each prisoner is given a supply
of food which would make several meals
for the average citizen. At this time one
loaf OF bread, one pound of cooked meat,
and halt a gallon of coffee is given each
inmate. At II a. m. halt a gallon Of
bean soup Is also given each inmate.
The prisoners get no other food during
the day and upon this diet they are ex-
pected TO spend the time they remain in
Jail. Most OF the prisoners eat a small
amount for breakfast, and keep the re-
mainder for the other portions of the day,
and in almost every cell and about the
various steam pipes one can see small
buckets, etc, hung about, in order to
warm the food about meal time. The
number of colored and the number of
white prisoners is about the same.

Confederate Songs Sold For Mo
nOcacY Marker

That the unwilling Of the marker of the
Fitzhugh Lee Chapter, United Daugh-
tiers of the Confederacy on July 9th-the
fiftieth anniversary of the Battle
of the MonoCacy-might be GER
tainty, Charles II. Hagan, grandson of
a Confederate veteran, and Walter H.
Duvall, relative of Confederate vet
eran, and a Southern sympathizer, are
taking orders for War Songs and Po-
ems of the Confederacy," a production
of which Mr.. II. M. Wharton is the au-
thor.
The young men are selling the books
for the Daughters of the COnlederacy
free, and from the number of orders that
have been received it is thought that
quite nice sum will be realized. The
two men have been canvaSsing the city at
odd hours for the past week or 50 and
have taken as many as twenty orders in
one day.
The work is quite famous aud contains
all of the old battle songs and poems
which were on the lips of the soldiers OF
the Confederacy during their campaigns.
The work is dedicated to General John
B. Gordon. Mr.. Wharton was private
in General Gordon's command during
the Civil War.
Now the members Of the chapter are
devoting their time to the collection Of
funds. and it was reported a few even
ings ago, that about $500 is in bank to
the credit of the chapter. Nothing has
been decided as 10 the style of the
marker that will be erected, nor has the
matter of price been considered.
1t is the plan TO erect an elaborate
marker if enough funds can be procured.
Nothing will be done about the selec-
ton of the marker until we have all the
money that can be collected" said a
member of the chapter.

To Institute Night School at Y
M. @. A.

The members of the Board of Drec-
tors 70 the Frederick Y. NJ. c. A., at the
meeting Tuesday night, decided to nsti-
tute, at the beginning of the next school
year, in September, a night school for
boys. Preparations will at once begin
for the school, with view of securing the
instructors, ETC., and the instruction to be
given will consist of branches higher than
those taught at the present night school,
in the Frederick Charities Building and
full Commercial Course may also be
given.
Captain D. John Marley, president of
the Y. Nj. c. A, stated the work of
Tuesday night was the natural outgrowth
of the Free Night School, as conducted
in the Federated Charities Building. He
stated that the work which has been done
by this school has been excellent and
stated that it is felt that the Y. M. C. A..
can carry this work on further and give
to the employed boys, who desire it.,
whether they be members of the Y. NJ.
c. A., or not, an education which will
better fit them for the battles Of life. He
stated it is expected that all the teachers
will donate their services.

Eight Shippers Pool Labor to
Open Roads.

After beng blockaded for more than
four days, the two miles eff road leading
from Lime Kiln station to Point Of
Rocks, has been opened by a cancerted
effort OF the milk shippers Of that section
on "Wednesday, February 18th. Fifteen
men furnished by eight shippers were set
to work on the road and made the drifts
disappear like magic. Those who fur
nlShed workmen were:
M. ]. Grove Lime Company, : men;
Ernest Michael, men; Thomas 7. Cis-
sell, ? men, Lester Zimmerman, men:
J. II. Kepler, man; Willis Derr, I man;
George Burkett, man, and w. H. Buck
helmer, man.
This road is one of the county thor
onghiares that has been absolutely block
AIDED since the blizzard of last Friday and
Saturday. 1t was hardly possible for
men to ride over the road on horses and
to pass over it with wagon was entirely
ont OF the question. The road is very
narrow. Had it not been for the action
OF the milk shippers the road would
probably have been closed for a month
or more.

Delegates Want to Aid Teachers

A report Of the work of the Educa-
tonal Department of the Civil Club, Mrs.
Hammond Urner chairman. was an in
teresting feature of the monthly meeting
OF the Civic Club held Monday afternoon
at the Y. NJ. c. A. At a previous meet
ing the Civic Club had decided to enlist
IN campaign for an increase in the sal
aries OF teachers, the members feeling
that the teachers have been rather unfair
ly treated in the matter of salaries and
that this tends to injure the efficiency of
the teaching force. Letters were read
from the local members of the legislature
who replied to the communications of
the Civic Club.
Delegate Nelson replied favorably say
ing that the appeal OF the Civic Club in
regard to higher salaries for teachers met
with his hearty approval. He was inn
pressed that the teachers should receive
salaries commensurate with the services
rendered. He said he would rather see
the teachers adequately paid during their
service rather than pension them after a
certain period.

Teacher III of Scarlet Fewer.

Because Miss Ethel HORNE, teacher in
the Monument public school, near NY
ersville, has very mild attack of scarlet
fever, the Myersville High School, and
public school, and the Monument school,
were closed. 1t was decided to close the
schools because the HORNE family is rep
resented in all three. Mr.. A. !. HORNE,
father of Miss HORNE, is a teacher in the
Myersvllle public school.
The Church Hill, Middlepoint, Harmony
and Koogle's public schools were closed
several weeks ago because of the disease.
All of these schools have resumed their
sessions. except the Harmony school. No
deaths have resulted from the disease
and the majority Of the cases were light.

$4,000 Memorial to sohley

An appropriation Of SIS, 600 is asked Of
the State Legislature for the erection of a
memorial to the late Admiral Winfield
Scott Schley. The bill for this purpose
was introduced Monday evening in the
Senate by Senator Campbell. 1t provides
that the monument be erected IN Balt-
more in the vicinity of Fifth Regiment
avenue. The control of the selection and
erection of the memorial is placed in the
hands of the Board of Public Works.
The bill for the Schley monument came
as surprise to the local members of the
legislature. 1t is expected that an effort
will be made to have the monument
placed at Frederick if the legislature is
willing at this time to make an appropri-
otion for this purpose. Frederick is the
birthplace of Admiral Schley. 1t was
here that he spent his boyhood days and
received his early education. Frederick
he regarded as his home, and it would
be fitting to have his memory preserved
in fitting memorial right here in Fred
erlck it is claimed.

July 9th; 1864, in order that Frederick
might be saved from destruction by fire.
The resignation Of Charles Simmons,
Frederick's clock winder, was accepted
by the Board of Aldermen on Wednes-
day evening. Mr.. Simmons said that
because he could not keep the town
clock working to suit the public he
would resign His resignation was eff
tective at once. Mr.. w. L. o. Fisher
the ringer of the Evangelical Reformed
Church chimes, was appointed clock
winder

draft bill providing for the extension of
the corporate limits of Frederick so as to
take in College Park, the property of the
Swastika Realty Company. Edward 7.

wanted to develop the entire property.
He explained that a portion of his prop
erty was outside OF the city limits and
because of this he was unable to sell lots
in that section.

Federated Charities, sent a letter to the
Board of Aldermen, asking tor the an
nual appropriation of 500 for their char
ity work. The board made the APP

water to the building, but before taking
final action on this question they would
like to secure a fiat rate from the CITY for
city water.

Dried Fruits Both Useful and
Cheap.


Cheap.
Housewives are overlooking very nu-
tritious and economical diet in dried
fruits, according to the Department of
Agriculture. Dried fruits, it saws, are
especially useful when the supply of fresh
fruits is limited. Besides being useful
alone, they may be mixed into cakes,
buildings, confectionery and other dishes.
Studies recently conducted by the De-
partment experts show dried fruits 10 be
an economical article of diet Fruit pro-
ducts in general contain little protein, it
is stated, but as sources of energy, de-
rived almost entirely from their sugar,
dried fruits are decidedly cheaper than
meats and compare favorably with dairy
products.
Under no circumstances" says the
Department, 'should fresh and dried
fruits be considered luxury since they
supply the needed nutritive materials as
an integral part of the diet, besides add
ing to the attractveness of the daily fare.
The amount of dried fruit produced in
this country increased SIS per cent. be-
tween 1899 and 1902 California produc-
es more than four-fifths of the yearly out
put. 1t is estimated that each person
consumes on an average five or six
pounds of dried fruit year. The value
OF the product rose between 81, 900, 600 to
over $2I, 900, 900 IN 10 years. The aver
age wholesale price, however, has not
advanced with the increased demand; on
the contrary it has dropped from 5l to
about AZ cents per pound.
