NEW POCOMOEE CITY TO RISE
OVER ASHES OF RECENT FIRE
WIDER STREETS TO BE LOOKED
AFTER IN BUSINESS SECTION
Mayor Tull Advocates Going Slow to
The End That Better Town Will
Result.-Bank Funds Intact

Plans for the rebuilding of the busi-
ness section of Pocomoke City, Nd,
that was burned recently, be-
gan Wednesday. At the request of
Mayor James Tull, H. Dryden of Sails
bury, who has done much city plan
ming for PocOmoke City, consulted
with POcOmOke town officials. Wider
streets, with freproof structures, are
two of the important details that are
expected in the way of improvements.
Market street, the towns most impo.-
tant thOroughfare, from a business
standpoint, will have 13 feet added to
its width on the north side, between
Second and Front street, giving it a
total width of 48 feet. This will con-
tinue to be the city's main avenue Of
business. Vine street, one block to
the north, in the new town will be 80
feet wide instead of 20. Formerly
known as one of the towns "back
streets" it will, if plans are carried
out, become another business section.
Between these two thoroughfares, for
the three blocks from Front street 20
Second street, modern fireproOf struc-
lures of brick, stone and concrete will
be erected, with no frame buildings
permitted. The same restrictions will
apply to the block bounded by Market,
Willow, Clarke and Second streets.
These decisions were definitely reach
ed at the City Council meeting.
Special permits were granted to one
or two persons last week to go into
the ruined structures. Among these
was the Citizens National Bank on
Market street. Locked in the vault
here were the banks records and
currency. The vault was opened anC
its contents were found to be in per.
feet shape. They were removed to ar
uninjured building. The other bank
the Pocomoke City National, was
more seriously damaged. Many
plans are being made for rebuilding
but most of them have not yet taker
definite shape. M. L. Veasey, how
ever, who owned the two stores
operated as the l. F. Hargis Co., hat
an architect come from Baltimore t.
look over the remains of the building
and to make plans for the future
While believing that it is best to TAX
hold of conditions and rebuild the tow
as soon as possible, Mayor Tull de
clared himself in favor of going sloy

DAMAGE TO FRUIT DOWN STATE
Fruit Growers Says Enough Are Left
However, to Insure Fair Crop

Fruit Growers Says Enough Are Left
However, to Insure Fair Crop
According to late reports from Sus-
sex county, although probably 500 of
the fruit buds in that section have
been killed by the cold weather there
are enough live buds left, if they hang
on, to insure a fair yield. Former
Senator Oliver A. Newton, of Bridge
vile, manager of the Delaware Orch
ard Company, says that 500 of the
fruit buds in the apple orchards are
killed. Tests were made in the orch
ards of the company which has hum
dreds of acres in fruit trees. In his
own orchard near Bridgeville little
damage was done by the frost. An
agent of the Department of Agricul-
ture who examined buds in the orch
ard of Leonard Soper, between Mag
nolia and Rising Sun, where Mr..
Soper has several hundred acres i'll
fruit trees, reports that in low places
the peaches are practically killed, on
high ground about 500 killed and the
Stayman Winesap apples are badly
injured. A. B. Peet, of Milford, sec
retary of the State Board of Agricul-
ture, reports that in his orchards 500
of the j. H. Hale peaches were killed
by the frost, but other varieties were
little injured. Stayman Winesap
apples were badly hurt and also other
varities, but enough buds were yet left
to insure a crop. According to the
Agricultural Bureau, it is significant
fact that the orchards that received
the best attention last summer in till
age, fertilizing and spraying are the
ones that suffered least.

4OTH BIRTHDAY
OF MT. ANGEL
IS CELEBRATED

Mt Angel, Or, Nov. 20.-The
40th anniversary of the founda-
tion of Mount Angel college was
celebrated last Monday. A holt
day was proclaimed by the Rev.
Rector Father Victor A solemn
high mass was sung by the Rev.
Prior Father Jerome. He was as
sisted by Rev. Father Benedict
and Rev. Father Bede, as deacon
and sub-deacon, respectively. Fa-
ther Clement officiated as master
OF ceremonies.
This anniversary marks another
great step in the progress OF the
institution. Rev. Adelhelm Oder
matt, 0. S. b., founder Of Mount
Angel college. came over from
Switzerland to America in 1878,
and after eight years of hard la
Dor Father Adelhelm's health
broke down and he went west in
search OF a more agreeable cli-
mate, He Travelled over the Paci-
fic states in search of site for
another Benedictine mo;4=stery,
and finally decided on the butte
near Fillmore" However, in 1882,
when Pope Leo XIII signed the de-
ere of erection, temporary mon
astery was built at Geryais, to be
eventually superseded by the per-
manent abbey at Mount Angel,
then called Fillmore.
In 1884, two years after the
founding of the monastery, the
community was transferred from
Geryais to a site near Fillmore,
which was named Mount Angel,
after the mother house in Engel-
berg, Switzerland
In 1889 the cornerstone OF the
present structure was laid by the
new archbishop OF Oregon, the
Most Rev. Alexander Christie, d.
d., and four years later the whole
abbey was completed. The new
abbey buildings comprise the alb
hey proper monastery, college and
seminary buildings combined in
one three-winged structure), an
abbey church, spacious gymnas-
ium, the Benedictine press and the
postoffice of st. Benedict, Or.
The new college is situated on
the crest of Mount Angel, a gently |
sloping hill.

POLK DAIRY HERD
SMASHES RECORD
FOR PRODUCTION

Rickreall. Nov. 2O.-A few
months ago the American Jersey
Cattle club announced that the
Macarthur & Stauff herd at Ash
wood farm, near this place, had
established a worlds record for
butterfat production when 16
cows maintained an aver
age of 5685 pounds OF butterfat
for IL consecutive months. II
seems, however, that this splen-
did performance was only fore
runner of more remarkable rec
ord, for the register of merit files
of the American Jersey Cattle
club now show that 18 cows in
this herd have completed 305
and 365 day tests, which average
658.02 pounds butterfat.
The four outstanding features
of this record are: "a Every COW
in the heard, with one or more
official tests to her credit, is in
cluded; (2) the average age at
the beginning of the. tests was
only 3 years and months; (3l
all but two of the cows were bred
by owners; (4) all but two of the
records are entered in class AA
or class AAA In order to qualify
for these classes, cows must drop
living calves within 16 or IA
months. respectively, after the
last freshening prior to the test.
Record Pronounced Remarkable
All in all, this record is a most
one. 1t never has
been approached by any herd of
more than IL cows Of any dairy
breed and experts say it reflects
the greatest credit upon its own
ers-likewise upon the Jersey
breed. Only three of the cows par
ticipating in it were mature ami
mails at the beginning of their
tests. OF the others, five were 4
year olds; four were year olds
and six were 2 year olds. The
largest contributing factor to the
general result was the record of |
ten daughters of the medal of mer
It bull Holger. These cows aver
aged 754.54 pounds of fat at an |
average of 4 years and 5 months
Sig daughters of ST. Mawes of |
Ashwood averaged 56301 pounds
at at an average age of 2 years
md 7 months.
This herd record does not in
,lude the incomplete tests of 2
rear olds, which will finish their
irst lactation periods next jan
lary. With the addition of these
hree records, the herd of 20
ows will average approximately
40 pounds fat, but as many of
he cows previously tested are
low on reentry test and are bet
ering their old records, it looks

NED BUNTLINE, SCOUT WHO

Some Of the old scouts turned their
hands to queer trades when the Indian
fighting days were over. Buffalo Bill
was the owner OF Wild west snow,
Edgar s. Paxson became painter. and
| Capt. Jack Crawford was q poet. 1t
was left for Ed Buntline to add an
other to the list of unusual things for
a scout TO do. He became the writer
Of dime novels and the producer or
melodramas equally exciting.
Judson was his real name. and Ed
ward Zane Carroll Judson was the
full title with which his parents bur-
dened him on the day of his birth In
Philadelphia In 1872 lie became one
of the boys who ran away to sea and
when he was only thirteen he rescued
the crew of boat that had been RUIZ
down by a ferry steamer In New York

midshipman i'm the United States navy.
Then the West called him and judi
son answered the call. During the
Civil war he was chief of scouts
among the Indians ON the western from

over the great plains as hunter and
trader. lie made the acquaintance OF
Buffalo Bill, Wild Bill and Texas
Jack, and began writing his thrilling
tales. part fact and part fiction. about
their lives. Ned Buntline was the
pen name he used In his writing, and
as Ned Buntline he became famous.
Buntlne believed that eastern audi
ences would be interested In plays
based on life in the Far West and In
1872 he persuaded Buffalo Bill and
Texas Jack to come East and take
part I'm one of his melodramas. They
arrived In Chicago one Wednesday and
found that Buhtine was planning TO

With characteristic energy Buntline
set to work and In four hours he had
written II play called '"The Scouts OF
the Plains"
Buntines dime novels were equally
popular, and, In spite OF the disap
