Kent Paid
Author of Disputed
Mural Wins Point

Rockwell Kent, the artist who
painted the mural for the Post
office Department, over which
such a fuss has been raised recent
ly, has been paid in full for his
work by the Treasury Department.
The mural portrays a dark
skinned girl, holding message
written in an Eskimo dialecD {,
telling the people of Puerto Rico
that they should change their
chief. Despite criticism which
came to the Treasury Department
against the payment of the $4,000
to Kent for his work, Admiral c..
j. Peoples, head of the Treasury
Procurement Division, ordered
that Kent be paid.

Damascus Beats Frederick
Hustlers In Star Setto

Damascus, Tri-County champs, de-
feated the Frederick Hustlers, ace
Frederick baseball club, to 3, to end
the 1887 campaign. Damascus, under
the management of Bas Burdette, has
won 20-odd victories this season, only
losing three games, two of them to
Middletown.
The Frederick Hustlers closed a
successful season Sunday afternoon
October 10, by breaking even in a
double-header at McCurdy Field. The
local nine was beaten by Damascus,
champion of the Tri-County League,
in the opener, 5-3, and then came
back to defeat the Middletown All
Stars, "a. Frederick ended the 1897
campaign with a record of twenty-one
victories and seven defeats.
Arrian Norris displayed fine as
sortment of hooks and slow wind
up in setting the Hustlers down with
three hits in the curtain-raiser. A pair
of walks and double gave the locals
two runs in the first inning, but the
Montgomery fountains evened mat
tiers in the fourth on single, walk
and two errors.
The game was won in the fifth
inning. King grounded out, but Penn
and Day were safe on errors. Murray
singled and Penn scored. Harold
Burdette singled to tally Day, and
Murray was nipped at the plate. Wat
kins forced Burdette. A triple and
error in the sixth gave Frederick its
final run. Two singles and double
provided the champs with their last
run.

were not cooperating with the Coun-
ty and State Road Authorities.
Doubtless, because Mrs. woodward
owns very considerable frontage on
this unimproved section, the rumor is
current that we are the property
owners VINO will not grant the neces-
sary rlght-of-way.
Our last contact, with your Right
of-way Department, was in 1884, ana
the party who approached us was Mr..
Ralph Chase. 1t was my understand
ing that his report would indicate the
points which were in controversy, and
that we would hear later from the
Engineering Department. Since that
time no attempt has been made to ad-
just the differences, which, of course,
can be adjusted.
My purpose in writing you is to de-
termine the true reason for the pro-
ject not now being under way, as a
letter from Chief Engineer Nathan
L. Smith, dated November LIST, 1885,
indicated that the improvement was
being considered seriously at that
time.
| will thank you for an early ex-
preston from the State Roads Com
mission.

Mr.. Townsend Howes, Editor
Montgomery County Sentinel
Rockville, Maryland.
Dear Sir
In your issue of August IL, 1887,
you carried front page editorial
drawing attention to the fact that
a considerable section of the Veirs
Mill Road, running from Rockville to
Wheaton, was unimproved, The edi-
torial further implied that the reason
for the section remaining unimproved
was because the owners of the abut-
ting property were not cooperating
with the State Roads Commission in
establishing the right of way.
Mrs. Woodward owns considerable
frontage on this unimproved section,
and recently she has been very much
annoyed by being accused of holding
up this much to be desired improve
ment.
To clarity the matter, addressed a
letter to DR.. Tabler, of the State
Roads Commission to which he re-
piled. enclose copy Of both letters.
! think statement of the facts by
you would be in order.
Very truly yours,

Mr.. Donald Woodward
Woodward and Lothrop
Washington, D. G..
Dear Sir:--
Acknowledging your letter of Sep
TENDER 18th, concerning the veirs
Mill Road, we are quite surprised to
note the contents of your letter. You
ask why the Veirs Mill Road has not
been undertaken. This road is in the
program for the next biennium.
Before the Veirs Mill Road in your
section will be serviceable to the pub
lie, we will have to build cutoff to
the new grade crossing elimination at
Rockville.
If the Commission can find sufici-
ent funds, we hope to undertake this
project in it's entirety within the next
two years.
Very truly yours,
H. E. TABLER, Chairman
