One thing seems to have developed
pretty clearly in legislative m nds-

the male. And the masculine gender
has to its credit such able opponents

BIDS FOR GAINESVILLE SCHOOL
BUILDING WERE TOO HIGH
And The Board of Education Re.
jected All Four Submitted

The Board of Education of Garrett
county received and opened on last
Friday the bids that were advertised
for the remodeling and building of
an addition to the Grantsville school
building, located at Grantsville. The
bids received were as follows:
Joel H Miller, Grantsville. $50. 1859:
E. G. Marshall Co., Cumberland. $685.
1855; Sleeman Bros, Frostburg,
S35,968; Marshall Bros, Homecoming.
$9S,457.
The funds provided for the new
building purposes at Grantsville are
$4,000. Accordingly, since the bids
submitted were far in excess of this
amount, the County Board of Educa-
ton rejected all bids.
The Board of Education is now
having the architect draw up new
plans and specifications with a view
of them not calling for an expendi-
ture not exceeding $4,000. New bids
in accordance with the plans and
specifications now being prepared,
will be invited, the same to be re-
turnable early in May.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
AFTER BEING ACQUITTED
Three Men From Bayard, w. Va,
Stranded In Baltimore When
Liquor Charge Was Dropped

Dominick La Strappo, alias Dom
mick joe" of Garrett county, near
/ Bayard, w. Va, Homer Keplinger
and Charles Wagley, of Bayard, who
were arrested on February 18th on
charges of violating the federal pro-
hibition law, were found not guilty
by Judge Rose, of the Baltimore Fed
eral Court, last Wednesday.
When the three men were set free
they were asked if they had any mon
ey. Keplinger and Wagley had a
small amount, but not sufficient to
pay their railroad fare back home.
La Strappo did not have any money
and asked the authorities how he was
to get home. He says the officers
told him to get job or to bum some
money from some one in town. Joe
was unable to do either and on We'd
nesday afternoon started to walk
from Baltimore to Bayard, W. Va, a
distance of about 200 miles. He had
breakfast and dinner at the Balti-
more jail Wednesday morning before
leaving. He walked all Wednesday
afternoon and night without any
thing to eat and on Thursday morn
ing was given two slices of bread by
some men employed along the Chesa-
peake and Ohio Canal. These served
as his rations until he arrived at the
Jail in Cumberland at six o'clock Fri
day night. There he was given a
good meal and bed and also sufficient
money to pay his way to Bayard.
He departed at seven o'clock Satur-
day morning, over the Western
Maryland Railway. The other two
men are thought to have paid their
car fare as far as possible and rode
freight trains the remainder Of the
way home.
The three men were taken to Cum

ing given preliminary hearings be-

L. S. CHEMISTS TO ANALYZE
CLAYS II GARRETT COUNTY
Frostburg Commercial Club Arranges
Tests to Determine Their Uses

IeSts TO determine Inelr Uses
Mr.. T. c. Darlington, secretary Of
the Frostburg Commercial Club, went
to Washington one day last week to
arrange for the cooperation of the
Bureau of Mines, Department of the
Interior, for a study of the various
types of clay found near Frostburg
to determine their commercial uses.
These clays are in large quantities
and may be found in Eastern Garrett
county and Western Allegany county.
For many years the clays found in
both counties have been used for
manufacturing brick and also more
recently for making hollow tile. Out
of-State business men have also been
recently interested by the Frostburg
Commercial Club in a proposition to
vitalize this clay in the manufacture
of other products.
The directors of the Commercial
Club have felt that it may be possible
IidI tiiC great Sldy uSpOSlJS may Dc
adapted for various other commercial
purposes for which they have not
hitherto been utilized. With this idea
in view Mr.. Darlington at a consulta-
ton with Mr.. Balm, chief of the Bu-
reau of Mines, at which Representa-
tive F. N. Zihlman was also present,
secured the promise of Mr.. Balm to
send one or more chemists to secure
samples of the various types of clay
which is being utilized for new and
more varied lines of manufacture
every day, and it is possible that some
of the clay found in the locality of
Frostburg is exactly suited for the
manufacture of articles other than
brick or tile. In that event, the Com
mercial Club will endeavor to secure
capital in the establishment of plants
in and near Frostburg.
Abundant coal side by side with
the veins of clay, together with the
nearness of large eastern markets,
make Frostburg an extremely advan-
tageous point for the establishment
Of clay product factories.
