Feb. 12- Simole but interesting? eiercises were held at the general offices in this city today in cele bration of the 80th birthday of the Balti more & Ohio Railroad. It was just eighty years ago today that a groip of Balti more's foremost citizens met at the resi dence of Philip E. Thomas for the purpose of devising a means which would enable commercial intercourse between. Baltimore and the Ohio river, and thus overcome the commercial advantages her neighbor ing cities, Philadelphia and New York, en joyed by reason of canals. The Baltimore & Ohio is the oldest steam railroad in America. The first stone of its roadbed was laid in this city on the Fourth of Jul v. 1828. with elabor ate ceremony. Over its original Isngth of nine miles mules dragged its cars. Then Peter Cooper, a manufacturer, of New York, brought to Baltimore a steam en ginea curious concern, something like a boiler with a stovepipe in it. And Coop er's engine broke down and the horse ex press beat it. Then came the grasshop per engines the embryonic germs of the tremendous locomotives of today. So, historically, the Baltimore & Ohio is ex tremely interesting. 1 ' The road grew. It was the first to cross the Alleghany Mountains and tap the great West. ' - Before the line had been long in opera tion the motive power wa chansed from horses to a sail car, built by President Thomas's brother, Evan Thomas. Then came the trial of Peter Coooer'a locomotive, known as the "Tom Thumb" which did not prove as successful as iu builder had anticipated. The first trial trip of the engine was made August 26 1831, from Baltimore to Ellicott's Mills BOARD AND ROOMS Nicely furnished rooms with or without board. By the day, week or month. Terms reasonable. Mrs. C. Shaw. 1421, Adams Ave. FOR SALE-Polen China boar 9 months old for exchange or sale, also several smaller ones for sale, also two Jersey milch cows for sale. AddIv to H.
