ton, which closed its doors on Janu-
ary 20, William T. Warburton, pres

STOLEN CAR RECOVERED.
Three Negroes Run Up Against the
T,QxU

Law.
Motorcycle officer Chas. T. Ku-
bert, stationed at Rising Sun, assist
ed in the capture of three negroes
and the recovery of stolen Ford
sedan early Tuesday morning. The
three negroes in the car were stop
ped by Officer Bailey, in Oxford,
about five O'Clock Tuesday morning,
and as none OF them. had drivers
license the officer took the negroes
to the lookup. Two of them broke
for liberty, one of them being halted
by revolver shot in the air. The
third made his escape. officer Ku-
bert received an early morning tele-
phone call to be on the lookout for
the negro and went to Sylmar on
his motorcycle.
He saw the negro walking down
the railroad track, and Mr.. Coon
took to the fields when he caught
sight of the officer A revolver shot
brought the fugitive to standstill,
the bullet whizzing past his head, so
close as to cause him to yell in terror,
"'deed, boss, you pretty near killed
me-"
The negro was brought to Rising
Sun and placed in the lookup here.
He made confession later in the
day stating his name was Rudolph
Hawkins, of 1925 Tenth st., N. w.,
Washington, D. c., and that his
companions were Andrew Jackson,
242S Georgia ave., and Booker T.
Sharpless, Y. M. G. A., Washington.
The car they were driving was
stolen from garage in Washington
Saturday evening and hid In a blind
alley in that city until Monday, when
all three started in it for Philadel-
phia. They ran against the Law
as stated above and will probably
pay dearly for their trip.
The car was the property Of Lieut..
G. Morgan, of Washington, who
came to Rising Sun after 1t on Tues
day night.

Rising Sun, and received last week.
was held on Saturday afternoon last,
and the machine performed in sucn
manner as to fulfill every require
ment, in every test going beyond the
specification of the contract, and
delivering the goods" in a way that
has even silenced the knockers"
who have been busy ever since the
organization Of the Fire Company,
belittling the efforts of those who
have been doing their best to see
that our community is provided with
modern and adequate fire protection.
The engine was taken to the mill
dam, north of town, Saturday after
noon for the official test, delegations
from Oxford and Elkton fire depart
ments being present to witness the
trials. The specifications call for
the pumping of 900 gallons of water
per minute. On the first test the
engine pumped through two lines of
hose One line $50 IT,, liz inch
nozzle, 125 lh. pump pressure, Is
10. nozzle pressure, $50 gallons per
minute, and at the same time,
through the other line of 100 #. of
hose, inch nozzle, 295 gallons OF
water, making total of 625. gallons
per minute. The other tests were:
$50 it. of hose, l inch nozzle, 2Os
ID. pump pressure, 130 lb. nozzle
pressure, 337 gallons per minute;
450 TT. of hose, inch nozzle, 26U
Id. pump pressure, 14O lib. nozzle
pressure. $50 gallons per minute.
The most severe test, which showed
the engine to be "real'' one, was
the pumping through a line of hose
1850 feet in length, reaching from
the dam to the Burlington store
building, at the corner of Main ana
Walnut streets, a stream of water
being thrown clear over the four
story building. This test was with
Is inch nozzle, 800 lb. pump
pressure, so lb. nozzle pressure,
showing 176 gallons pumped per
minute. Unfortunately a section of
old hose burst ON this test, and the
trial was brief, but showed what the
engine could do. With a surveyors
instrument w. Louis Ryan ran
levels, showing that the top of the
hill, up which the line of hose was
laid to town, was 72 feet above
where the engine was stationed, re-
quiring the lifting of the water this
height, in addition to throwing it
to a height of fully 60 feet, to clear
the peak of the roof of the building,
which It did.
The Community Fire Company is
now equipped with an engine of
which any company could justly feel
proud, and is ready to respond to
any call for aid that may be re-
quired in this entire neighborhoou.
At the meeting on Friday night
Vernon Garvin was elected engineer
in chief and about a dozen others
were appointed to take instruction
in the handling of the engine. The
representative of the American La
France Company has been busy all
week giving instructions, the engine
having been taken on numerous trial
runs.
1t is at present housed in the new
garage of Wilson & McNamee, where
it may be seen by anyone wishing to
look 1t over.
That the community is behind the
movement to have we'll equipped
volunteer fire company in their
midst is shown by the contributions
that have been made to the fund,

Drink the fill of sorrows cup,
Must I, must I, let him go,
Dearest husband I loved so?

Yes, we've closed his eyes gently,
In their last dreamless slumber;
We've folded his hands softly,
Ger the heart that's now still.
We have borne him away from our
thrice-broken circle,
His place that's now vacant, no other
can fill.
Dear wife and loved children,
Pm happy in heaven;
The dark waves of sorrow,
Can never reach me more,
And though you are left in your home
now SO lonely,
I'll be watching and waiting for you
on the other shore.
CARD-We wish through this pa
per to express our heartfelt thanks
and appreciation for the services of
the kind friends and neighbors and
all who have sympathized with anc
assisted me in any way in the sick
ness, death and burial of my dear hus-
band. I also wish to extend my spe-
cial thanks to the G.. A. R. and the
