On Tuesday the men working on the

contending that ten hours is too long

refused, and yesterday only a small

somewhat increased today.
Keep the bowels open when you have

As a town, what in thunder are we
coming to, anyway? Whither are we
drifting? The people of Salisbury are
becoming so infernal lazy that they
don’t drink whiskey fast enough any
more to keep the farmers in cider bar-

will even be the cause of jarring the
cider, or causing it to be bottled.
Think of Dr. Shoop’s Catarrh Cure if

your breath is foul or feverish. This

“The Foxy Tramp” which will be at
the Hay Opera House, Salisbury, on
Wednesday, October 24th, is a strong
comedy drama depicting life as seen in
the rural districts and the reform of a
wandering, homeless outcast. The
company engaged to present it is ex-
ceptionally strong in artistic ability.
All those who enjoy a clean, pure
comedy should see this play. Watch
for the parade.
Preventics, as the name implies, pre-
vent all Colds and Grippe when “taken

toothsome candy tablets. Preventics
dissipate all colds quickly, and taken
early, when you first feel that a cold is
coming, they check and prevent them.
Preventics are thoroughly safe for
children, and as effectual for adults.

NEW BANK PRESIDENT.
Roberdeau Annan Chosen Chief Ex-
ecutive of Frostburg First Na-
tional—Sueceeds Late Mr.
Wineland.
Frostburg, Oct. 9.—The election of
Mr. Roberdeau Annan to the presi-
dency of the First National Bank of
Frostburg, which occurred today, to
succeed the late Marx Wineland, is a
just tribute to capacity of an unusual
order combined with long and faithful
service. Messrs. Wineland and Annan
had grown up with the institution.
They were with it in its weakness and
in its strength, and were so thoroughly
identified with its growth and success
as a part of the great financial strue-
ture of Frostburg, as to render it diffi-
cult to imagine anything in connection
with the First National Bank of Frost-
burg not associated with the person-
ality of the two men.
It was, therefore, the most natural
sequence of events that Mr. Aonan
should succeed his friend and prede-
cessor in the management of its af-
fairs, and thus make certain a contin-
uance of the success that has given the
First National Bank of Frostburg a
rank among the leading financial in-
stitutions of the country.
The stockholders of the bank are to
be congratulated as well as Mr. Annan.
He has earned their confidence by
commanding for the bank that measure
of success to which all aspire and few
attain. He has also furnished furtber
proof that “the crime of being a young
man,” once so serious, is today, at least
pardonable when coupled with achieve-
ment. Mr. Annan is but thirty-six
years of age, and today finds himself
directing the destiny of a million dol-
lar enterprise. That the institution
will thrive to a degree surpassing its
success in the past is assured by the
limitless energy, unbounded resource-
fulness, and sterling integrity of its
new chief in command.
Mr. Olin Beall, teller of the First
National for the past thirteen years, a
life-long resident of Frostburg, whose
friends and relatives constitute the
major population of the Mountain City,
has been promoted to the office of
cashier.
The vacancy in the board of direc-
tors caused by Mr. Wineland’s death
was not filled at today’s meeting, and
possibly will not be filled until the an-
nual election in January. The present
board of directors includes Judge
Robert R. Henderson, Dr. Timothy
Griffith and Messrs. Duncan Sinclair
and Roberdeau Annan.
