Storm Does Damage.

Considerable damage was done by
the storm at early last Tuesday after
noon, generally conceded to have been
the heaviest storm that has visited
Frederick in number of years.
Flooding the city streets and turn
ing them into veritable rivers, max
ing rural roads at some places inn
passable and carrying away trees and
fences in the country, and signs, boxes
and other movable objects, the storm
caused considerable damage of a min
or nature. No serious damage, how
ever, was reported
Following one of the hottest fore
moons of the week the storm came at
1245 o'clock and brought with it some
relief from the hot wave which has
held grip on Frederick for the past
several days. Rain continued to fall
from time to time all during the af-
ternoon and evening and the mercury
continued at the lowest point it has
reached during the past week.
Water a foot deep at some points,
sweep the city streets and made many
thoroughfares impossible. Market
street was discovered by some mem
Der of the fair sex who were caught
out in the rain, and who attempted
to jump across the thoroughfare. She
found that this was no place for tight
skirts. Water flowed through the
street bed and over the sidewalks,
pouring into cellar windows and low
doorways and causing much discom-
fort and SOma DAMAGE
A stiff gale from the west accom-
panied the storm and played havoc
with things of light and movable
nature. Shutters were torn from win
dows, limbs of trees were blown off
and whirled away, and other trees
were uprooted.
A barbers sign pole was torn away
from a Market street shop

Federated Charities Name Com
mitteeS.

Although the annual report will not
be issued until about July l, it has
been estimated that the budget of
receipts and expenditures of the Fed
Grated Charities during the past year
will reach about $4,000, which is a
comparatively small sum considering
the extensive work that has been ac
complished by the Federation. This
was discussed Tuesday evening at the
quarterly meeting of the directors of
the Federated Charities which was
held in their building 1873 South Mar
ket street with the president, James
II. Gambrill, Jr., presiding.
Final reports of the work for the
year closing April l, were heard from
the general secretary, the treasurer
and also from all the subordinate
societies that form the Federation.
These reports showed that an increas-
ing work had been done along all
lines and that despite the depression
in business affairs during the past
winter, about enough money has been
collected to meet the expenses count
ing little that is still outstanding.
