Secretary Edge of the state board of ag
riculture, has prepareed the following ex
position of the fence law:
The fact is that the repeal of the general
law of 17(10 and 174 has completely re
versed things so far as outside or road
fences are concerned. Under these acts
the owner was required to protect it
against stock passing along the road or
suffer damages. Since the repeal of t hese
laws it has become the duty of the owners
of live stock on the public roads to prevent
them from tresspassing, and if tresspasses
take place the owners of the stock is per
sonally responsible lo theowner of the land
for any damages done to crops or property.
Under the old law the crops had to be
fenced to protect them from stock, and
now the stock must be restrained and the
land owner is not compelled to maintain
fences unless he so chooses.
The consideration of the fence question
usually brings up other questions closely
related to it, and among them the right of
the public to fruit, grass, etc. The right to
this class of property is c'early vested in
the owner, of the land and the public have
no rights to it whatever. It is just as
much the property of the land owner as if
it was on the inside of a good fence, and
the public have no right to in any manner
disturb it. If trees, grasses or other prop
erty in any manner interferes with public
travel the road supervisors have the right
to remove it. for nothing prejudical to the
public right of unimpeded travel can be
allowed to remaiu, but the only judges of
this are the road commissioners. So nice
s this distinction that is a case of record
in court a man whose children pass along a
public road ou their way to school obtained
permission of the road supervisors to cut
the grass so it might not wet his children's
clothing, but after cutting it he hauled the
grass home and fed it to his horse. The
owner of the laud adjaceut to the road
brought suit and recovered damages to the
value of the grass.
The land upon which a oublic road Is
located Is given to the public for the right
of way or passage over it and the public
has no right to it. A man may not stop on
the public road aud impede travel, for by
so doing he interferes with the rights of
the public. He cannot haul aw&v earth,
sand, stones or other material, for they are
as much the property of the land, owner.
subject of course to the reserved rights of
the road supervisors, as similiar material
within the fences of the farai. The owner
of the land gave merely the right of pas
sage over the laud, and if for any cause the
road is discontinued the land reverts to
him and again becomes a portion of his
farm.
The right of the supervisors is auto
cratic. They may for the our nose of re
pairing roads, building bridges, etc., cut
down trees, remove earth or stone, and the
owner of the laud has no redress unless
the materials are taken off his farm
and not within the limits of the road. If
taken fiotn his farm he is of course entitled
to payment, but he cannot prevent their
removal if the supervisors see tit to insist.
Under the present condition of our gen
eral fence law the lines which bound the
rights of any public travel are as much
protection to the farm owner aud bis stock
as the best fence which he can build, and
any live stock passing this line are tres
passers and liable for all damages done to
crops or other farm property.
In a recent address before the state board
of agriculture, Mr. Stranahan clearly inti
mated that no matter how the animal got
upon the public road their owner was re
sponsible, and if they broke out and got
into the road the owner was just as much
responsible as if he was driving them along
the road at the time the damage was in
flicted.
In referring to the repeal of these laws
Mr. Stranahan spoke as follows: "These
j udges have held that we have no fence
law as to the enclosure of a man's land.
and that every man has to fence in his own
cattle, and if he does not, and they get out
and do damage to his neighbor, he must
respond in damages.
BrUKbf to Jail.
On Tuesday Albert Moore was brought
to jail on a commitment from 'Squire
Lynch, of Cresson. Moore claims to reside
at Coal port, Clearfield county, but on
Monday strayed into Frugality, where he
registered at the hotel kept iu that place
as Ii. Strou p, of Mountaindale. Soon after
his arrival he came to the conclusion that
the place was too small for him. He was
half drunk and in the dining room quar
reling with the waiters. After supper he
went up stairs and secured a 38-calibre re
volver with five cartridges in it. He went
into the barroom and easily got a drink
when he leveled the weapon at the bar
tender. He then made for the frightened
spectators by shooting at a pack peddler.
I!y this time Stroup had wrought him
self up to such a pitch that he wasn't
afraid nf a mountain, and, in true wild
western style, said he could lick all the
measly scrappers in the town. He went
over to the oflice of the Cresson and Clear
field Coal and Coke company, and kicked
at the door. Mr. P. H. Walls, the mana
ger, came out and threw Stroup off the
porch. This riled him and he poked his
revolver and let go at Mr. Walls, who
slipped back into the oflice unhurt. .
Stroup then returned to the barroom.
where he was overpowered by a number ot
miners under Manager Walls, handcuffed
and locked in a box car over nighf. On
Tuesday morning he was taken to Cresson
and after a hearing before 'Squire Lynch'
was committed to jail.

The Central Hall Reporter says: Belle-
fonte is at present crowded with gpysies,
who are gathered near Milesburg for their
reunion. They formerly intended to have
Williamsport as a meeting place, but as
liellefonte is almost the central part of the
state it was iecided to meet near there.
Large bands are flocking in and several
hundred have already pitched their tents
in the outskirts of the town. One band
alone has more than a bundled horses, but
the average lot is about twenty. The
gypsies will hold a carnival lasting for
several days, which will be in the nature
of a large fair, as it Is held mostly for bar
tering purposes. About 500 gypsies are
expected to be In attendance.
There were, however, about 300 on the
grounds and about the same number of
horses. Each one was gaudily dressed for
the occasion. They had their own band
for the occasion and the music they ren
dered was not particularly Inspiring. The
majority of these gypsies are remarkably
ntelligent and very courteous and polite,
At night the grounds are brilliantly 11-
lutninated and the enjoyment is at its
height.
Thousands of people have flocked to the
different camps, and the scene resembles
that of a big circus encampment. Horse
trading and buying and fortune telling are
the principal features of the business, and
the men do a thriving business with the
visitors in horse trading, while the women
harvest many dimes by forecasting the
future life of credulous maidens.
These carnivals are held once every five
years, a custom carried out for half a cen
tury. This one was called by the chief,
Peter Guy, of Elkhart, Ind., who has
charge of all the doings of the entire band.
He his his quarters on tbe grounds, from
which the members receive their orders
daily. He is a man of six seet four inches
in height, and ways 200 pounds.
Close to his quarters are those of the
queen, Annie Harrison, of Raleigh. N. C
She is a pretty young woman or 22 years.
and she has charge of tbe camp in tbe ab
absence of the chief. Her authority is
never disputed, and her will is law to the
different band s.
