GALL ABOARD"

Lots of people have been asking,
what is All Aboard" ever since the
Civic League started advertising "a
few days ago. "All Aboard is new
and very successful musical comedy
presented by about one hundred local
people. 1t is presented by the same
company who produced "Oh, Oh,
Cindy," and 'Katcha Koo" here a few
seasons past. However, this show far
surpasses either of the others in many
wavs. It is strictly a musical farce
Its purpose is to make you laugh and
it has always been successful as
mirth provoker. A clever cast OF prln-
cipals among whom are Mr. Brady,
as Billy, the leading male role and
Mrs. Wimert and Miss Richmond, as
Beatrice and Dorothy, Miss Johnson
as Mrs. Sloane, Mr.. KINNEY as the
Captain and Mr.. Ditman, as Alexander
the blackface comedian. There are
also two sailor comedians and a
Swedish Stewardess who cause no eLd
of laughter at every appearance. The
choruses are especially well drilled
And YOU will marvel at the hnlshed
appearance of each dance NUMBER.
Tickets are on sale by members
of the cast. Reserved seats are on sale
tuesday at the Opera House. AS eve
ryone expects a full house both nights
it will be wise to get your seats re-
served early.

". M. PASSENGER
TRAIN WRECKED
RUNAWAY FREIGHT CAR, COINS 80 MILES
AN HOUR, HITS HEAD ON HIGHFIELD
EXPRESS-SEVEN INJURED.

A runaway carload of lumber which
was being shifted from a freight train
on Jacks Mountain, Monday morning
raced down the mountainside and
crashed into Western Maryland pas
Senger train No. 43, at Maria Furnace,
on the Baltimore & Harrisburg Divis-
ion.
1t injured seven persons, five of
whom were Baltimoreans and mem
bers of the train crew, the other two
being passengers. The wreck was one
Of the worst experienced on that line
for months and would probably have
resulted in great loss of life had the
passenger train been moving at the
time it was struck.
The injured are:
w. E. Shaw, engineer of passenger
train. Baltimore, leg injured and back
5prained. Mr.. Shaw is a brother of
Dr. Thomas X. Shaw, West Main
street. and is we'll known in this city.
H. c. Cramer, fireman passenger
Grain, Baltimore, face lacerated and
right foot injured.
T. H.. Hoover, conductor passenger
train. Baltimore, left arm and chest
injured.
Harry Mowery, brakeman of freight
train, Baltimore, head and face cut
and leg injured.
E. X. Cook, baggage master passen-
ger train. Baltimore, fractured toe of
left foot and foot injured.
Mrs. Al. Bushman. passenger, Get
tysburg, Pa. face lacerated and nose
and jaw injured.
Mrs. FANNIE Blumenstock, passen-
ger. Hanover, Pa, left arm and shoul-
der injured.
The injured members of the train
crew were taken to Baltimore after
Receiving medical attention.
According to those in charge of the
trains, Mowery was aboard lumber
laden car which was being shifted on
when the brakes failed to work. The
car started down the incline and, al
though fellow -workmen called to him
to jump before the momentum became
too great to do so safely, Mowery
stuck to his post.
The passenger train was on the
same track as the runaway car, ana
when Engineer Shaw saw it coming
at 80 miles an hour, he stopped his en-
CINE. Before he could reverse, how
ever. the car crashed into the front
of the engine.
A moment before the crash the fire
man on the passenger train jumped
from the cab escaping injury. The
freight car and engine No. 20S, on the
passenger train, were badly damaged,
causing a delay in traffic on that part
of the road.
Members of the train crew, who
were nearest to the crash, suffered
most. The engineer and firman were
thrown from their seats and the men
in the baggage car, just behind the
engine. catapulted from one end of
the car to the other Passengers were
thrown from their seats.

MAN OF EXPERIENCE NEEDED.

The appointment of Reno S. Harp,
of Frederick, as United States Com
missioner of Fisheries, is being urged
by Senators France and Weller and
Congressman Gilman, of the Maryland
delegation. Now, We always like to
see Maryland men in Federal Offices
and the indications are that Presi-
dent Harding would like to appoint
him, both as a reward for Mr.. Harp's
services to his party and as a recog-
milton of the Republican party lead
ers in Maryland. But, this office is a
most important one, including juris-
diction not only over the routine fish
cries problems but of such major
matters as the seal fisheries in Alas
kan waters and other questions that
are international in their scope. 1t is
of particular interest to Marylanders,
in view of the fact that our oyster,
crab and fish industries are among
our most important. They bring big
source of revenue into the State cof-
fers and therefore have vital bear
ing on the life of the people of the
whole State, not only OF those along
the water front The Conservation
Commission of Maryland has done a
great deal in protecting these indus
tries by securing the passage of eff
fective State laws and by wise ad-
ministration of their office, but our
neighbor Virginia also borders oil
these waters and her laws are differ
ent from ours. Take the crab industry
Every housewife in this part of the
country groans when she sees the hole
in her weekly allowance that the pur-
chase of soft crabs makes. Yet, If her
lord and master has particular fam
cy for them, she does without some
thing for herself and buys the costly
crab This crab ought not to cost
nearly a nickel for each one of his
fins. But the absence of effective Gull
laws in Virginia allow the spoilation
of the young crabs and deplete the
supply. This could be overcome by CO
ordination on the part of Maryland
and Virginia backed by Federal au-
| thority. A man for United States Com
missioner of Fisheries should have a
wide knowledge and recognized exec
utive ability Secretary of Commerce
Hoover is known to favor man en-
kinently qualified for the post, not
! merely the appointment of a man for
political purposes. The names OF sew
/ eral men of wide experience along
/ this line have been suggested to the
president. Let us hope an experienced
imam may be appointed.

TRACTION ENGINE SALE SETTLED

The case of P. d. Koons and Son
Detour, against Samuel W. Barrick
and Sons. Woodsboro, trled before
Frederick County Court last week re-
suited in verdict in favor of Mr.: Bar
rick. The suit grew out of an alleged
contract of sale of a traction engine
outfit. which the plaintiff claimed tne
defendants had purchased for $f5o'
and for the rent of the engine amount
ing to $159, upon which there had been
paid a credit of 500. The defendants,
however. admitted the rent OF Sl59:
The plaintiffs alleged that Barrick and
Sons had purchased the engine and
equipment in September, 1921. and the
defendants claimed that they had an
option to buy the machine if the price
was satisfactory, or to pay the rent.
The court decided that there was no
agreement or contract for the pur-
chase of the engine and verdict was
given. the plaintiff for $50, which
amount was admitted to be due by the
defendants.
