The party left Grants Pass early
this morning for trip into the hills
on prospecting tour, and the truck
was pretty heavily laden with their
outfits, including bedding, spades,
picks, etc.
There are no signals at the Third
street crossing; no flagman or gates,
and Chief of Police Timothy said
that in making a crossing at that
point, there was no way of seeing a |
train; nor was there any way in
which an approaching vehicle could
be seen by the trainmen.
The train had slowed down some- !
what as the accident occurred The
fireman saw the truck first, instantly
warning Engineer Roy Wright, but
too late. The warning and the crash
came almost at the same instant, and
both railroad men declare that 1t
was not in human possibility to
avoid 1t.
The impact was something terrific.
John Eads, the owner of the truck,
was thrown 20 feet to one side Of
the track, with his head gashed open
from the temple to the neck, while
few feet distant, and on the same
side OF the track, Smith, who after
wards died at the hospital, was
thrown. The four others, who were
thrown on the opposite side Of the
track, were not so badly injured and
they may recover.

Commissioners of the INCORPORATED
towns of the county are very much
disturbed because of the loss OF a part
OF the revenue which has heretofore
been appropriated annually by the
County Commissioners fer the i'm
proyement of streets in the several
! towns. At the last session of the
Maryland Legislature bill was pass
ed giving authority to the County
Commissioners to scale their appro-
priations, and this fact did not become
known to the boards until recently.
AS a consequence an appreciable re-
| duction has been made in the funds
at the disposal of the town boards
for street improvements. Efforts will
be made at this session of the I.egis-
iature to have bill passed which will
restore the original amounts appro-
priated by the County Commission
| ers.

Years ago we eliminated tow.
Tow was bad. We put it out

Now we have eliminated moss.

How Much Do You Know About the
Stuff That Your Furniture Is Made OF?

This Class Of furniture is usually
called solid mahogany"
But the higher usefulness of
mahogany is in making veneers
and ply-wood.
The very best and most durable
furniture in the world is that which
is made in some good domestic
wood, covered over and firmly
bound with successive layers of
mahogany plies or veneers, with
the granting in different directions.
Furniture of this kind is proof
against splitting and varying.
and may be said to be almost as
durable as Time itself.
That is what we mean when we
speak mahogany" furniture.
And the same with walnut and
the other beautiful finishing
woods.
There Is much other furniture
that looks like mahogany and
looks like walnut, but never has
any touch of either.
Ask about that kind of furni-
ture when you see it in the sales.
Ask to know whether it is true
to name or only stained.
In the Wanausaleer Great
February Furniture Sale loe
lDill not permit any customer to
be deceived in the sliOhtest de-
gree az to the true names and
true woods of our goods.
There is. many a piece, that
looks like rich mahogany, that we
will tell you is birch or gumwood
finished in mahogany color or
grain.
We cannot afford to let YOU
buy it and take it away with any
other impression about its char
acter.
This is the Sale of uttermost
service to the furniture purchaser.
Not stopping with giving him
the best qualities and construc<
ton obtainable for his money, it
is the first to step forward with
frank encouragement to him TO
investigate the woods and the
stufhngs that compose the furni-
ture, and to explain to him just
what he should ask about and the
answers he has a right to expect.
