ANNIE M, SyrrH, 5-1 a tr ee, . The Baltimore & Ohio Railroad and the Civil War. 1861-1865. It was the first and most desirable point of vantage coveted by both the Federal and Confederate armies. In May, 1861, the four Federal advance columns concentrated at Parkersburg, W. Va., Wheeling, W. Va., Harpers Ferry, W. Va., and at Washington. To retain the advantage, the Federal gov- - ernment established block houses along the railroad from the Monocacy to the ' Ohio river, besides forts at Winchester, Harper's Ferry, Cumberland, Piedmont and New Creek (Keyser). The B. & O. was the base of operations for the Fed- eral army for nearly four years and from which the government could not take advance line earlier than Novem- ber, 1864. The B. & O. was the means of communication between the West and the Army of the Potomac, and was consequently in a continual state of seige. Harpers Ferry, the key to the Shenandoah Valley, first famed through the fanatical attempt of John Brown,in defying the laws and customs of his country, was captured or recaptured eight times in three years. The Gov- ernment Arsenal and armories which were located there, were destroyed by the government to prevent their cap- ONE HUNDRED AND SEVENTY-NINE ANCE WERE FOUGHT ON OR ADJACENT TO THE BALTIMORE & OHIO RAILROAD, not taking into consideration the innumer- able skirmishes. : All through trains from St. Louis, Louisville, Cincinnati, Chicago, Colum- bus, Cleveland, Wheeling and Pitts- burg to the East, Run Via WASHING- TON. 5-8 H& COMING!—Mr. J.

Biddle, of Mey- ersdale, last Friday evening cloged a series of meetings lasting two weeks, in the Addison Christian church. The attendance was very good, but there were no additions to the membership of the church. Mr. Biddle preached some very excellent sermons and made many friends while here. We would have been pleased to have him remain longer, but he had to go" from here to Centerville to preach, and from there to Meyersdale. Jasper Augustine, of Uniontown, is here on business. this week, T. J. Augustine, one of our leading merchants, spent Sunday and Monday at Keyser’s Ridge. Something out there seems to draw his attention that way. Mr. George Frazee, of Friendsville, Md., and Miss Carrie DeHaven, of Ad- dison, were married, last week, in Oak- land, Md. They have gone to Friends- ville, Md., to go to house-keeping.' We wish them a long, happy life. Cassius M. Hartzell and wife, of Chicago, have returned to Addison to spend the season at their summer home. Mr. Hartzell is doing some more repairing and is having a very fine porch built to the front of his house, which adds much to the good appearance of the same. Last Sunday evening Elder East- burn, of the M. E. church, preached a sermon on Odd Fellowship to the mem- bers of Addison Lodge No. 444. His discourse was a very able one and was preached to a large audience. A Revelation.

Sufall were callers at the home of J. 8. Stevanus, Sunday last. Last Wednesday a fire raged through a portion of the eastern slope of Negro mountain, doing much damage to for- est and fences. It was almost impossi- ble to stop the fire, on account of the high wind. Last Tuesday W. B. Tressler and J. J. Stevanus started the drilling ma- chine owned by E. K. Blauch and B. F. Tressler.

Kino, What Is Foley’s Kidney Cure? Answer: Itis made froma preserip- tion of a leading Chicago physician,and one of the most eminent in the coun- try. The ingredients are the purest that money can buy, and are scientifi- cally combined to get their utmost val- ue. Sold by E. H. Miller, Soaking It to the Insurer. There is undoubtedly a great deal of humbug afloat" with regard to the fire insurance conditions in the United States. The number of companies which have gone out of business or re- insured within the past year or so, give wings to the idea that an unconjrolla- ble fire loss is sole and sufficient reason for a flag of distress and help needed by some of these companies. May not the real trouble lie in the internal economy of the companies themselves, in their underwriting abilities to cope with an ever-yarting caloric? In the long run, fire underwriting, as well as the successful vending of pea-nuts, is a matter of business ability—of brains. Fire insurance conditions may be all that they are cracked down to be, and inadequate rates and sharp business practices may be making the business less of a bonanza and more of a hand to mouth speculation, but in spite of all, the great companies are making money right along, sawing wood, saying noth- ing and paying big dividends.—Insur- ance Topics. : A Lesson in Health.

Some of the town’s staid conserva- tives are crying out for another news- paper, to be pitted against the Record’s attitude toward town progress. Bless the dear old slow conservatives, news- papers are not built on their would-be pattern. A second printery would simply hump in for the good cause and create more woe than ever for the progress-opponents. The “Stand-stills” will have to look a different direction than toward a newspaper for comfort in their efforts to keep the town a dead stick.—Berlin Record.
