THE STATE HIGHWAY SURVEYORS,
What the Engineers Note in Sarveying the
Routes for State Highway
The several corps of engineers work-
ing on the two hundred and ninety-six
routes in all parts of the state make a
very minute record in their report to
the State Highway Department, and
after all the routes, making a total of
seven thousand miles, have been com-
pleted, Mr. Bigelow, the State High-
way Commissioner, will be able to sit
in his office in the State Capitol and
have before him a complete picture of
them. He willl be able to approx-
imately estimate the amount of traffic
on every route ; the number of dwell-
ing houses, stables, barns, and build.
fogs of all descriptions, along each
route; in what township a particular
mile of road is located, and who the
adjoining property owners are.
In order to make a complete report
the surveyors not only take elevations
for profiles from which the grades will
be calculated, but they note every cross
road, culver, distance from center of
road to fences, telephone and telegraph
poles, trees, buildings of all descrip-
tions, the names of all owners of real
estate abutting on the roads, boundary
lines of counties, townships, boroughs
and cities, boundary lines of real
estate crossing roads. Every convey-
apec—wagon, buggy, sled, sleigh, auto
cars—is noted, as are also the pedes-
trians who pass over the road while
the corps is at_work.
A. Brooks Celaix, of Hazelton, is
chief of the corps of engineers on the
Lewisburg-Bellefonte route. [he men
work in all kinds of weather, and put
in longer bours than required by cor-
porations. This corps is under Engi-
neer Anderson, who is chief of the Cen
tre-Clintoun-Clearfleld-Indiana county
district, which Is one of the several
districts into which the state has been
divided to facilitate the work of the
department. Mr. Apderson and a
force of office assistants will locate at
some convenient point in the district,
Clearfield being considered the most
favorable.

Was it Lawler?
Whether or not the man who a few
days ago walked into the police head-
quarters at Akron Ohlo, and gave
himself over to the authorities as the
man who held up and robbed the
train in the Lewistown Narrows, two
years sgo, Is really that man, and
waether or not he is William Lawler,
is 8 question the Pennsylvania Rail-
road police are trying to solve.
Lawler was the name given by one
of the trio of men captured in Foust's
barn, in the Beven Mountains, in 1608,
by Sheriff Taylor and posse of men,
and is the one who was seriously
wounded. The Akron Lawler and
the man who bad the experience in
the Beven Mountaine may be the same
map, bat it is extremely doubtful.
His identity could easily be discovered
by the wound on his peck, which
turned the battle in favor of the
sheriff
Lawler was discharged from the
United States prison at Atlanta,
Georgia, in 1908, and is said to have
purchased a ticket direct to Lewis-
town where he remained until about
the time of the Lewistown train
robbery, when he disappeared,

in last week’s issue of the Reporter,

Mrs. Detwiler to'd of her baby girl's
birth and death, which occurred with-
io ten days’ time, and of how, though

‘“ He got the word that it was a

near me, even after he heard of her

“ You knew of your wife’s condi-

“" Yes. 1"
“ You were in Harrisburg at the
time of the baby’s virth aod when it

the alderman continued,
Detwiler denied that he had heard,

Questioned by the alderman to the
work he had been doing since leaving

worked for bis folks in Centre county

“I was out in the Lord's work, ”’
he contioued. I wouldn't know

‘“ Are you in good health ? Can't

answered. * The Lord provides for
