The Electric Power.
III. 4 r. Ry. Co. Makes
Proposition To Thurmont.
Citizens Meeting Called For
Monday Evening Next.

The call for citizens meeting on Mon
day evening was responded to by a number
of representative men of the town. Not
knowing the nature of the meeting per-
haps accounted for more taxpayers not
being present. 4
was that of securing electric current
from the H. & F. Railway Company, the
present contract expiring September lst.
Mr.. Paul Smith. representative of the
Railway Company was present and made
a proposition to the citizens. He had
facts and figures as best he could obtain
as to the operating expenses of the
local power plant, the amount consumed
and for what Thurmont paid the H. & F.
for current the past year.
His proposition was, that the Thur
mont plant be shut down for one year,
and the current be bought from the Rail-
way for that period He aim Il to show
that the H. & F. could furnish all the
current for lighting and power for less
than the town.
During the past year about $1,000 was
paid the H. & F. for current, while it
cost Thurmont about $500 to furnish the
current during the year.
The question now before our citizens
is whether to contract with the H. 4 F.
for current for one year, or to continue
operating our plant and purchase current
during the dry season.
Another meeting is to be held Monday
evening of next week in Town Hall for
the purpose of discussing and probably
instructing the present Board of Com
missioners how to proceed in making
the contract. 1t is hoped every taxpayer
will be present to hear what may be said
and at the same time get better acquaint-
ed with the matter of operating and fur
mis- hing electric power.

After Schuetze Again.
House Badly Damaged. And
Occupants Decide To Move.

The house occupied by C. w. Schuetze
at Knoxville, this county was again dy-
namited Monday night last, the explo-
sion occurring about o'clock. Schuetze
and his wife Immediately arose and made
an investigation. The explosive had
been placed under the kitchen door sill,
and this was blown to atoms. Practically
all of the window panes in the house
were broken either by last nights bomb
ing or the one about a month ago. The
kitchen door is in splinters, half of the
porch door was blown off and other dam
age done about the house. Mr.. Schuetze
said the loss would be at least 5000.
Fortunately neither occupant of the
house was hurt but it was only the act
of Providence that saved them said Mr..
Schuetze. He stated that the house is
built Of stone and as the walls are very
thick little damage could be done to tie
exterior of the house. A weather board
house could not have stood the shock.
The first explosion, about month ago
occurred in the front of the house, the
dynamite having been placed under the
store door. The house is owned by
Mrs. Main residing in Pittsburg. Pa.
She visited here recently and it is alleged
she received warming that unless the
present tenants VACATED the property
further damage would be done to the
house.
1t is stated that Schuetze will move to
Frederick.

Methodists Will Join
Pilgrimage To Columbus.

Baltimore. Nd, June 1O.-Hun.,
dreds of Methodists, their wives anCl
children, who are members of the
Methodist Episcopal Churches here
and in adjacent church districts,
will join the great pilgrimage to Col
umbus, Ohio, where the Methodist

The event marks the one hundredth
anniversary of the founding of Meth
odist missions.
Methodist churchmen here declare
that the great celebration will not be
primarily time of rejoicing over the
work done in the years gone by, but
rather it will mark the beginning of
a new and more powerful era of spirit
ual activity by the church along many
different lines.
Magnificent pageants are to be
given in coliseum seating 10000
people. Some of the features will be
a chorus of 2, 800 voices, symphony
orchestra of 100 pieces, a ladies from
bone choir of 100 pieces, scores of
bands and quartettes. Not the least
interesting among the events will be
the movies upon the largest screen
ever used for this purpose. The
screen will be 100 feet square, and
the pictures are to be the most in
teresting ever exhibited.
A tent city" with a capacity
larger than the average cantonment
and housing at least 10000 people
also has been arranged for the en-
tertaiment of thousands who prefer
to live in the open" during their
visit to the exposition. Executive
Secretary Swartz announced today
that all applicants either for hotel or

LONGEVITY COMMON
IN BRITISH FAMILIES
Often Six to Eight Members Live
Above the Average of
IS Years. T.

The remarkable case Of the north
country family Of Calvert of which
eight brothers and sisters have
reached an average of eighty-five
years, has had many parallels in re-
cent years In England.
The late Lady Mabella Knox was
one Of nine brothers and sisters whose
aggregate ages totaled 769 years. Five
of them survived to ninety-nine, nine
ty-eight, ninety three, ninety-three and
eighty-nine years, respectively.
OF another family all members Of
the Society of Friends, we read not
long ago that three were still living
at the ages Of one hundred and one,
ninety-one and eighty-seven, while five,
who were dead, had counted 418 years
among them, an average of 81 years.
If the members of this family had
lived consecutively instead of together
the first born would have lived as4ong
ago as the year 1920.
When Henry Wye, sexton at st.
Mary's church, Leicester, died not
long ago, at eighty-seven, it was said
that two Of his brothers had prede-
ceded him at the ages Of eighty-seven
and eighty-five, respectively, while he
mad two surviving brothers Of ninety
seven and ninety-three and two sisters
of eighty-thr and eighty.
Joshua Jackson of Blackburn, who
survived to see his eighty-seventh
birthday, was one of eight brothers
and sisters, not one of whom failed
TO pass the eightieth milestone. And
quite recently there were living at
Milverton, West Somerset, five broth
ers and sisters, the eldest of whom,
Mrs. Shattocks, was ninety-two, and
the youngest, James King, just ten
gears younger
