CHANGE BEING MADE. Among passenger men the opinion prevails that one of the results of the new 2-cent passenger rato laws will be the abolition of what Is known as the certificate form of ticket, entitling the bearer to a lower rate for return passage than Is paid on the going trip. The Western and Southwestern roads have already voted to do away with this form of tickets the end of the year. Since they have , decided to make 2 cents rer mile their minimum fare as well as their maximum fare there will be no necessity for the certificate style of ticket, millions of which have been Issued annually in past years.

INTEREST GREAT III
THE PCNUOIITEST Hagerstown One of the Places Where the Outcome Is Watched For. CASE OF CAROL ADAMS. HE HAS ENTERED THE CONTEST AND HAS MANY FRIENDS WHO ARE HELPING HIM TO LAND THE PRIZE. Perhaps at no other place in Wayne county is more Interest taken in the Palladium and Sun-Telegram pony and cart contest that at Hagerstown. One of the contestants is Carol Adams of that place, who is working hard to secure the pony and cart and who has friends who are Interested in his behalf. An interesting story re garding young Adams is printed in the Cincinnati Post as follows: Rev. W. H. Poole, assistant rector of Christ's church on Fourth street, has begun an investigation of the pathetic case of Carol Adams, the Hagerstown, (Ind.) crippled boy who is trj'ing to win a pony and cart offered by a paper for subscriptions, so that he may sell the outfit and use the money to be cured. If Rev. Poole finds the case , a worthy one he has been authorized by a Cincinnati woman of wealth to make arrangements to bring the boy to Cin cinnati and to have him examined and treated by the best specialists in Ohio. She will defray all the expense of the treatment and only asks in return the joy of knowing that she has done a good deed. She has absolutely prohibited Rev. Poole from making public her name. The wealthy philanthropist's atten tion to the case was attracted through a story published last week in ine Post. The story told how Carol, when he became crippled, set out to gain the money that would pay for his cure instead of spending his time bemoan ing his fate The lad has entered a contest wherein one of the papers offers a pony and cart to the boy who will get the largest 'number of subscribers He has been writing letters to peo ple he knows and having his friends work for him, but even with this assistance it was feared he would fall behind, in the race, because he was un able to get out and make an active can vass. After the Post printed his story, peopie from all parts of the country began sending to him for details of how they could send in subscriptions through him, and now it seems assured that he will win, but if he does he may not have to sell the outfit, if the Cincinnati woman carries out her plan. Rev Poole Is having the Post's correspond ent at Hagerstown make an Investlga tion of the case, and through Rev Poole, all the facts will be laid before nis pniiantnropic pansnioner. ... . ... Some of the wealthy women of Christ church, who are known for their acts of charity are: Mrs. Thomas Em ery, Mrs. William T. Irwin, Miss Mary Hanna, Mrs. Larz Anderson; Mrs. Da vis C.

The traditions connected with tha historical residences of the British aris tocracy are maDy and varied, but none perhaps is more curious than that related about Tester, the Scottish home of Lord and Lady TweedJale. Tha o!d castle now a picturesque ruin referrotl to by Sir Yalter Scott in "Martalon," contained a wonderful vaulted I no.il. wu.cii Hugh oitrora, tne magi-1 clan. a sr.;d to have erected with onel stroke of his wand. But it was not a I case of "easy come, easy go," and the wizard so'.eniuly vowed that any man I who attempted to tamper with the fair! building should die swiftly and violent-1 ly. The old tradition was recalled when the present Lord Tweeddale's eldest brother. Lord Gifford, was crushed to death by a falling tree.

STRIKE OF OPERATORS
MAKES EFFECT FELT News of a Death Fails to Reach Relatives. NONE TO MEET THE BODY. Hagerstown, Ind., Aug. 30 Local I people tave ad an opportunity this week to see some of the effects of the telegraphers' strike now on. William Zook, formerly of near this place, but lately of Nebraska, died this week, and the body was at once prepared for shipment, to New Castle. Relatives im mediately telegraphed to relatives in and around New Castle, stating when the body would be shipped. The body reached New Castle Thursday morning, and the first local relatives knew of its presence was when an undertaker called them from New Castle by phone. The funeral was held at the Dunkard church near Hagerstown this I afternoon. TRICKS OF THE TYPES Wicked Deeds Done by the Imp 1 r of the Perverse. AMUSING ERRORS IN PRINT. Example of What Is Liable to Happen When tha Comoositor Blunders or Whan the Usually Alert and Careful Proofreader Nods. Sometimes the proofreader nods, and in this connection the late Lord Goschen told at a public dinner a story of a reader who worked for his (Lord Goschen's) grandfather and who. In answer to a denunciation from his em ployer, cried: "Let some other man work at correctness of typography. I despair. My own thoughts often hinder me as they seize au hold the authors otherwise than they ought to do. It is quite pos sible that niggling about words and syllables may often go to the wall when my soul cannot tear Itself loose from some thought or picture. Errors have been found In sheets which I j thought I had worked backward and forward with the greatest particularity. I read always aa it should be." It is when a reader is in this soulful condition that the general public are permitted to read, as they did once in a morning paper not given to humor. that a celebrated politician, in a speech, described some one as "sitting at the feet of the gane bird of Birminerham." Instead of "Gamaliel." In the same iournal. too. the following startling announcement appeared un. der the heading of "Births:" XICIIOLSON. On the 12th Inst., at Belton road, Sldcup, the son of Alfred Nicholson, of a daughter. In another newspaper a most pathet ic account appeared of a doctor who died owing to having accidentally in fected himself while Injecting some plague virus into a "gnat," The mys tery was solved the next day, when an apology was printed explainting that I -f i T11 C II mi 111 rl Q Vu UJUTI r'i T - tome over aim try some new over soup," a laoy novelist aia not write; songs" was the word. "It is a sickly kopje of the real article" was perhaps excusable. It appeared in a paper during the Boer war. These mistakes are curious enough. but they pale into Insignificance before some of those that never reach the printed sheet. "Cold milk, father!" once demanded i a compositor in cold type, and he was aggrieved to have to alter it to "Caed mille failthe!" "Brer Fox" was made Boer Fox" that was also during the South African war. On a hot summer's day another tired typesetter turned "The Ides of March" Into "The Idea of Work." In a sermon a celebrated divine wa made to say, "And they erected a ma rine store at the mouth of the sepulcher." "Massive stone" were the cor rect words. Abbreviations are at times the bane of the compositor, but he had no excuse in setting up, in an account of a Mansion House function, that among those present were "Old Isaacs and Old Treloar." He should have known that "Aid." was an abbreviation of "Alder man." In the same "take" of copy the "Lord Mayor was received with a crash" (should be "eclat") and was followed by the sheriffs In their "margarine (mazarine) gowns." Let the gulled Judy wink" appeared in another first proof, and the proofreader wearily made it the "galled Jade wince." "Die, lusty platterl" has quite a transpontine flavor, but tne 'copy said "Die Lusttge Blatter" (a German weekly paper). "Pignut of the enunciation" does not seem convincing; "figment of the Imagination is better. "Petueoats long on Sunday morning Is a disgrace" Is all right when the first two words are read "Petticoat lane.1 In a police court assault case the prosecutor was made to ay that the prisoner had given him "twins." What the prisoner really did wa( to gire the prosecutor a "turn" (a fright). "The government were suffering from mental aberration," must have been set up by a compositor of the opposition politics. The real charge was "mutual admiration." De mortar Ivil nice loreum" would trouble a Latin srhnlnr. "r mnrtnla nil nisi bonum" Is more correct.

The execution of Lati mer and Ridley took place on Oct. 10. 15G3, while Cranmer did not suffer urrtil March 21 of the following year. The memorandum of tc bill is included in the book which was found by Strype when he wrote his "Memoir of Archbishop Cranmer" in 1093, in which the expenses of the martyrs were entered during their imprison tnent. This book is probably somewhere among the manuscripts of Oxford university, now a grim, matter of fact witness to the fanatical hatred of the day. The following are exact transcripts from the bills by the person who had charge of the funeral pyres: Taid for the burning of Archbishop Cranmer and his two fellow sufferers, Ridley and Latimer: For one hundred of wood fagots, 6s.; for one hundred and a half of furze fagots, 3s. 4d.; to the carriage of them, Sd.; to two laborers.
