nounced that $4,000 Germans were
killed in last weeks smashing vic
tory at Kirovograd.
The Russians completely broke
German resistance in the Sarny
area. said the late Moscow-broad-
cast bulletin, recorded by the So
Wet monitor. After forcing the
river they captured Stryelsk sew
en- miles north of Sarny. They also
took in swift attack the railway
station of Nenovichi, seven miles
south of Sarny. Eight hundred
Germans were reported killed in
the area as the Russians widened
their front to IA miles.
Sarny itself was expected to fall
shortly to attacks from the north,
south and east as the Russiens
converged on the strategic rail
town. The rail line itself from
Baranowicze to Rovno, was no
longer of use to the Germans,
forcing them back almost $50
miles to Brest- for north
south communications in this area.

bacle at Kirovograd and its envi-
rons Jan. So were painted in by

In another blow TO the Germans
the Russians yesterday smashed
eight German troop trains carry
ing men. tanks, ammunition and
gasoline. the bulletin said.
Soviet mobile units, operating in
the area of the Smela-Khristinov-
ka rail line caught the troop trains
unprepared and sprayed them with
machine-gun fire. The Germans
rushed headlong from the trains
into the line of fire and the tracks
were Uttered with their bodies and
the twisted wrecks of tanks and
trucks. Fires finished off the stores
the Germans were rushing to
hard-pressed units.
In The Kirovograd area Gen.
Ivan S. Konevs forces put a
group of Germans to flight and
captured several populated places
as well as supplies.

jamin Tasker operated one of the carly
saw mills in the Deep Creek neighbour
hood, on North Glade Run. After the
Civil War, his sons, David and Hiram
ran the mill until they moved to Oak
land. Lumber was hauled from the
Tasllor mill to the railroad station
at SWanton.
The TasberS and the Brants were
related. for Benjamin Taskcr married

children were David, Hiram P. Lu-

1t appears that Taskcr was seek
ing investors and said he would be glad
to pilot any prospect to any of the
abovc-namcd enterprises. Just about
that time he seemed to think he had
competition. A company had been
formed to bore for oil in the Oakland
territory. Taskcr then wrote: when

BRANT WROTE TEXTBOOK
ON ROAD BUILDING

Charles +. Brant's good roads en-
thusiasm led him so far as to write a
textbook, Road Locating and Build
ing Simplified," and "for use in the
common schools" copyrighted in 1908.
1t is an illustrated hop, skip and jump
of l06 pages, and might be said to re-
fleet ccccntricity, yet today much that
it attempted to teach is in actual prac-
tee Brant drew up a bill which was
presented in the Maryland Senate by
request by the late John B. Shannon,
senator from Allcgany county, Jan
uary Q, 1906. The preamble read "An
act to reduce our taxes by wisely in
vesting our funds, to provide for the
accurate location of our public high
ways; place our roads in the hands
of men adapted to the work; obtain
road locations for nominal amount
end build and repair our highways as
far as practicable with convict labor"
The bill never got to the floor.
John George Christopher Brant,
grandfather Of Charles +. Brant. born
in ITO, came to Allcgany county from
Monongalia county, Va, in 1909, when
Thomas Pritchard, Jr., decided him a
"millsite" on Savage river near Bloom
ington. About 1910. John Brant began
manufacturing guns at his mill on
Savage River, or in a new factory
which he established in the bottom
land on the Maryland side of the
North Branch. 1t became known as
"Rrantsburg", now the property Of
Carroll Pattison. The name was orjgi-
nally spelled Brandt.
In 1871, the U. S. Government was
preparing for war with Great Britain,
and on December 26 of that year, John
Rrant contracted with Caleb Morri-
son, John Roberts, John Morrison,
Charles Allen and Elijah Arnold, all Of
Culpcppcr county. Virginia, "to manu-
facturc 1878 muskcts with hayonets
complete. to be delivered at the u. S.
Armory at IIarpcr's Ferry" within
three years. These men advanced
Brant $3,d86.60 and to secure them,
Brant mortgagcd his property He

Brant, who is thought to have learned
his trade in Germany, is said to have
bought the pgiron for his factory
from furnace in Pennsylvania, bring
ing it UP the North Branch from Cum,
hcrland on fathoats. He sent the COM
rletc muskets down the river to Har-

Labor Canteen Is Refused
Buildings on Sundays

The Washington Labor Canteen
yesterday was refused permission to
use buildings in Potomac Park at
Twenty first street and Constitution
avenue NV. for Sunday afternoon
entertainment of soldiers.
Col. H. w. Isbell, headquarters
commandant of the Military Dis
trict of Washington, issued the order
banning the labor group from the
buildings.
The order came as a surprise to
labor canteen officials, since the
proposed Sunday programs already
had received approval of the Ameri-
can Women's Voluntary Services,
which operates weekday canteen
in the buildings. Permission also
had been granted by the Interior
Department, which has jurisdiction
over Potomac Park.
Col. Isbell requested the AWVS to
rescind its permission to the labor
canteen to use facilities. He said his
reason for denial of the facilities to
the labor group was that approval of
their request would lead to a flood
