Getting Big Engines.

With continual increase in freight
traffic the W. M. Ry. Co., finds it neces-
sary to equip the road with heavier en-
gines than is now being used. 1t is re-
ported that about October lst the COM
pany will receive number of engines
for use on the mountain grades, one of
these to be able to handle more tons per
train load than two of the large 700
series now in use.
The size of these locomotives, it is
stated necessitates the moving of nearly
all side tracks further from the main
line and also the widening of many of
the rock cuts in the mountain west of
Thurmont.
Mr.. Robert Eigenbrode, section fore
man at this place. was ordered to in
crease his force to fifteen men and pro-
coed with the above mentioned work.
With this continued increasing OF
freight the matter of double track be-
comes more and more necessity in or
der to handle the business now being
done by this road.

"WlLLOWDALE."

The comedy drama, "Willowdalle',
given on July 3lst, deserves more than
passing mention.
Painstaking effort is generally reward
ed by success and the production of this
play was no exception to the rule. When
all the parts were so well taken it would
be insidious perhaps to single out anyone
for special praise. 1t is becoming more
and more recognized that the successful
presentation of dramatic and musical
compositions depends upon the harm on
ious and we'll balanced effect of the whole
rather than the star system" of for mer
years. Tho stage setting was excellent
and the local atmosphere faithful to life.
Special praise should be given to the
makeup of different characters, it was
unusually good. Altogether the play was
a great success from dramatic point of
view, and while the weather conditions
interfered somewhat with the financial
returns, still the good cause for which it
was given, profited by the faithful and
untirng work Of all concerned in the
production, who have earned the COM
mendation, we'll done.

@. {. Weller.

1t may not be known, generally, in
Carroll county, that Mr.. 0. +. Weller,
one of the two Republicans seeking the
nomination of the party for the govern
prship, is grandson of the late Joseph
Weller, who for several years, between
10 and fifty years ago, resided in this
city, and who was the first American
who manufactured lucifer matches. He
then resided and had his factory in
Mechancstown, NOW Thurmont). For
some reason he abandoned the business
and later removed, with his wife, who
was Miss Reifsnider, to this city. where
they were visited at times by our Mr..
Weller, who was then boy.
The grandfather and grandmother are
buried in Thurmont One of their sons,
DR.. Joseph M. Weller, now of Cumber-
land, remained here for some years,
studied dentistry with DR.. Billingslea,
and practiced that profession here and
still practices it successfully in Cumber-
land. He married Miss Shriver, daugh-
ter of the late Francis Shriver.
Mr.. w. Frank Weller, who for some
years conducted store at Glen Morris,
and afterwards moved to Granite, Balti-
more county, was the father of our Mr..
Weller. He was well known in this
county as worthy gentleman and an
energetic and enterprising business man.
Mr.. o. E. Weller is a graduate of the
United States Naval Academy at Annap-
oils, to which he was appointed as mid
shipman in 1877, by the late Hon. Chas.
B. Roberts after competitive examina-
ton, held at the Court House in this
city. Rev. James W. Reese was one of
the examiners before whom he won the
prize. He was graduated from the Acad-
envy in 1881, made one cruise as an officer
of the Navy, and resigned in 1888 to en-
gage in civil business, in which he has
been very successful. AS chairman of
the State Roads Commission he has be-
come widely and favorably known to the
people, his efficiency in that important
position having been thoroughly demon
strated by results.
Mr.. Weller's family connection with
former residents of this city, makes his
candidacy for the Republican guberna-
torial nomination of especial interest to
the people here and throughout this
couLty.-Westminster Sentinel.

More Heavy Rains.
Ground Thoroughly Soaked
Richards Farm Work.

Last week was somewhat noted for
heavy and frequent down pours of rain.
Last Thursday afternoon heavy rain
fell and again on Thursday night from
10 to II O'Clock, the latter perhaps being
the heaviest fall of the week. The
stream crossing East Main street rose
rapidly and was soon out of bank and
flowing across the street for a distance
of several hundred feet, making it i'm.
possible for pedestrians to travel. A
number of persons were taken in auto
mobiles across the water. The rain
Thursday night covered a large scope OF
country to the south of Thurmont.
The H. & F. Railway suffered consid-
cradle damage from this rain, q. bridge
between Frederick and Yellow Springs
being washed out. The track being coy
cred with water caused freight train
to be wrecked, three cars being ditched
and the motor derailed. The road was
tied up until Monday afternoon. Passen-
gers were transferred around the wash
out and perishable freight hauled from
Thurmont to Frederick by automobile
trucks.
Saturday afternoon light rain fell for
a few minutes in Thurmont, while sever
al miles to the east and in the vicinity OF
Motters the fall was very heavy.
Sunday evening about eight O'Clock
there was several showers of rain which
made church goers hustle for shelter.
This gust seemed to be and was reported
heavy to the west and northwest of this
place.
Roads in all sections of the county have
been washed badly; the State Road from
Thurmont to Emmitsburg being in very
bad condition.
There has been but little wind and
lightning with the rain in this immediate
vicinity. The continued rains have kept
The ground too wet to work and farmers
ire being held up with their blowing.

Creeger Wins Again.
Hagerstown Twirler Weakens
And Is Hit Hard.

On Saturday afternoon good game OF
ball was played here and witnessed by
large crowd of people. The visiting team
came from Hagerstown, being all or
part of the Western Maryland Railway
employees team.
For the.first time in years the manager
of the Thurmont team was obliged to
"borrow" men, three being secured from
Emmitsburg to fill the nine. Eddie GREGG
er, however, did the twirling, pitched
steady game and outclassed his opponent,
Cotter, who in the eighth was relieved,
seven runs being made in that inning.
Cotter, we understand started the sea-
son with the Hagerstown club, one of
the six clubs composing the Blue Ridge
League.
UP until the eighth the game was very
interesting, the score being 3-3. Rain
interferred with the game for a few min
utes. The score:

 19O2-Harry Forbes and Johnny Reagan fought 20 round draw at St Louis. This bout was for the ban tamweight championship, then claim. ed by Forbes, a Chicago boy. Forbes defended his title against a number of other boys, whipping Mart De- vaney at Denver. Tommy FeItz and Mike Mensic at Chicago, Frankie Neil at Oakland, Johnny Kelly at Kansas City, and others. but did not meet Reagan again. In August of 1903 Forbes was matched for a second contest with Frankie Neil, and this time lthe little California knocked him out in the 2nd round at San Fran ciS 70. Soon after. winning the bantam tstle Neil was matched to fight John ny Reagan at Los Angeles. The bout went the full 20 rounds, and was called a draw, although many thought Reagan had the shade. Rea- gan lost to Jimmy Walsh, tue bantam claimant, in 1906, but defe lted Jim my at San Francisco in 190>, At his best Reagan was as good a any of the bantam champions of T is time, and deserves to rank among t,le great lads of that division.
