BAYARD

Temperature in this section took a
decided drop Thursday, accompanied
by extremely high winds. A heavy

Recently workers employed on the
night shift at the Emmons Coal Min
ing Company's mine were startled by
a series of bright flashes of light at
the power house, indicating trouble.
On investigation it developed that
the bright flashes were caused by
Chief Engineer Moon taking photo
graphs of the power house machin-
cry. The power house and its equip
ment, which is the finest and most
modern of its kind, is being written
up for leading engineering journals
in which will be described in detail
the entire equipment, accompanied
with a large number of illustrations.

Our little town seems very silent
since the busy whir of the machinery
is no longer heard in the work-a-day
world of the large leather manufac-
turing plant that up until four weeks
ago, when it was consumed by fire,
gave evidence Of great activity. The
quietude is something very unusual,
as for thirty some years this industry
operated most successfully and had in
its employment at times upwards of
a hundred men. The plant underwent
a series of renovations and was prac-
tically new plant when the confia-
grafton occurred. The loss to the
community is inestimable; likewise
the vicinity has suffered a financial
depression as well. The business men
of Terra Alta and Oakland are in
sympathy in this very great stroke of
misfortune that has befallen the COM
munity, as a goodly trade of COM
merce had been established in both
places. The State of Maryland as
well as Garrett county will also be
effected in the matter Of revenues, as
the annual receipts for taxes am
mounted to no small item. The in
dustry alone was an appreciate as

The little village of Corinth, a mile
due west of here, was the worst
struck of any as the miners there
supplied all the necessary fuel for the
operating of the tanning plant and
thereby caused a complete shutdown
of the main feature e that town
with approximately twenty or more
men thrown out of employment.
Mr.. c. P. Harner, one of the most
progressive merchants of that place,
who conducted business almost en-
tirely on credit basis, was forced to
discontinue and has sold the stock
and fixtures to another party. The
venture, while but newly begun, was

the reason set forth herein. A large
restaurant had just been fitted up in
connection with the mercantile bust

much as 40 gallons of ice cream was
obtained every fortnight through
Hills ice cream company of Terra
Alta. The Terra Alta Bottling Com
pany was also patronized extensively,
This was very popular rendezvous,
and one that the writer enjoyed i'm
mensely. We only hope that the re-
adjustment of circumstances will be
such as to prove favorable to every
body.
The writer, in a recent interview
with Mr.. William O'Conner, the own
er of the plant, gave promise of its
possible reconstruction on the location
with improvements. He said the re-
placement of the buildings would be

as nearly fire proof as possible. We
hope that definite decision will be
reached and the work of rebuilding
commenced.
