Fire tears through Emmitsburg barn and home in early morning blaze
A large barn and an adjacent Emmitsburg home suffered extensive damage in a morning fire driven by wind and ice. The blaze destroyed livestock feed and farming implements, with losses estimated around 10,000 pounds and contents up to 25,000. Volunteers from Emmitsburg aided the effort, but the barn could not be saved. The incident followed a string of nearby weather-related hazards and prompted investigations into lighting and wiring for safety.

Plan for Road Engineers in Statewide County System
A proposed bill, read in the Senate by Senator Towers, would appoint resident road engineers for each county under the State Roads Commission. Engineers would supervise county work with half their salary and expenses paid by the state and half by the county, with salaries no less than 4000 dollars for a four year term. The plan, aimed at replacing the current supervisors, sparked debate about added costs and whether one unit could properly oversee road maintenance.
