For Good Roads.
State Road building, which had
been to a considerable extent held
back because of delay in the enact-
ment of the legislation necessary to
an adequate supply of funds, has been
resumed for the season,and the State
Highway Department is counting on
a substantial quantity of construction
before winter puts a stop to work of
this character. Three contracts have
been let for improved highways in
Lancaster county. Bids have been
asked for twelve pieces of work, in-
volving 95,000 feet of road in various
parts of the state. Additional bids are
to be asked at an earley date for 150,- |
000 feet of road, partly on the state-aid
plan and partly main state highways.
An interesting feature of this year’s
contracts is that wherever possible
the department has chosen work that
will connect existing stretches of im-
proved highway or extend pieces of
road previously improyed. Each sec-
tion is designated to fit into the gen-
eral scheme of a comprehensive sys-
tem of main highways. A notable
instance of this is found in two. sec-
tions of Route 5, which extends from
Scranton to Wilkes-Barre by way of
Pittston. One section contains 11,652
feet and the other 24,435 feet. = They
will connect municipalities that have
improved their streets. As a result
there will be in a short time a contin-
uous improved highway between the
county seats of Lackawanna and Lu-
zern counties. Another case of the
kind is in regard to a short piece of
road between Harrisburg end Steel-
ton, which is the only unimproved
portion in twelve miles of highway.
Similar connections are to be made in
Fayette and Beayer counties and on
Rote 286, in Blair county. Later con-
tracts are to be characterized by a
like policy. The three contracts alreaCy
awarded in Lancaster county cover
54,291 feet and will connect important
roads greatly increasing the amount
of continuous good roads in that re-
gion.
While the work for the present
season is now under way, there is no
likelihood that the actual road im-
provement in 1913 will exceed that of.
1912. The same will be true of 1914 as
no money will be available either this
year or next except such as can be
spared from the current revenues. As
the recent Legislature appropriated
$27,000,000 more than the estimated in-
oome of the state for the two years,
good roads must bear their share of
the enforced curtailment. It is appar-
ent to those familiar with the situ-
ation that this condition of affairs
will oontinue until some plan has been
evolved for financing the road build-
ing program independently of the reg-
ular revenues, because the temptation
of the legislators to appropriate the
state money for their private charities
and other institutions at the expense
of public roads has been demonstrated
time and time again to be too strong
to be resisted,
Meanwhile, the demands of the
State Highway Department for the
construction aud repair of roads all
over the state are far in excess of its
ability to meet, by reason of the lim-
eted amount of money that can be
diverted from the public revenues for
that purpose.

sults I desire. They act mildly and
regulate the bowels perfectly.—Geo.
B. Krause, Altoona, Pa. ad
Over the State
Altoona.—Two boys while walking
through the mountains west of this
city found the decomposed body of
Robert Emmett McCann, a young civil
and mining engineer, lying on the
summit of a hill a mile west of this
city. McCann, who wgs aged 24 years,
recently returned from Florida, where
he was employed, and spent much of
his vacation hunting. Last Saturday
he took his gun and went to the
woods, and his prolonged absence
caused his relatives no uneasiness, as
he had frequently been absent several
days on such excursions. When found
his rifle lay at his feet, and a bullet
hole in his throat and through his
head leads to the theory that his gun
was accidentally discharged.
Scranton.—From a knife wound in
his throat, self-inflicted, Clement Dun-
derwald, aged 54, died in the West
Side hospital. The death of his 22-
year-old daughter is believed to have
cdused Wunderwald to commit sui-
cide.
Washington.—Rev. C. W. Johnstoh,
for 25 years a Presbyterian minister
at Efulen, German West Africa,
reached Washington, his former home,
on an extended furlough, being met
here by Mrs. Johnston and their two
sons, Robert and Logan, who are in
the United States securing their edu-
cation. Mr. Johnston brought with
him from the African jungles a chim-
panzee. The animal was not suited
for a pet, however, and was sold to a
New York menagerie.
Birdsboro.—Robert Reinard, of Mo-
nocacy, while painting a huge boiler
at the Birdsboro stone plant, was
burned to a crisp.
Philadelphia. -— The Pennsylvania
Railroad Co. is preparing to spend
$600,000,000 for the elimination of
grade crossings on its lines east and
west of Pittsburg. This is according
to an estimate made by officials, who
say that there now are approximately
13,000 crossings at grades which, in
the interests of public safety and
efficiency of qgperation, must be. re
moved. It is estimated that the re-
moval of one grade crossing costs
$50,000.
Uniontown.—Two thousand pounds
of powder exploded at the DuPont
works, four miles south of Union-
town, when a car in which it was
loaded was derailed near the powder
mill. The car ran down the steep in-
cline 500 feet before it left the track
and the explosion followed. Men
working near ran for their lives and
got to places of safety.
Johnstown.—When Mary Chalinski,
a domestic in the Hotel Mussulin, at
Broad and Front streets, started to
look for a bedbug with a candle in her
room, she set fire to the mattress and
a two-alarm blaze with a loss of $4,000
resulted. The hostelry is in a foreign
section of the city and a large crowd
witnessed the firemen at work on the
blaze, which was one of the most spec-
tacular fires that has occurred in this
city in months. Mary, frightened
when she saw the mattress in flames,
shut the door and said nothing. The
flames had gained much headway
when discovered. Firemen, when they
arrived some time later, found Mary
in a secluded room bemoaning the
loss of her “jawh.”
Kane.—Hundreds of oil derricks
and trees were blown down, while
telephone and telegraph lines were put
out of service in the worst storm in
years. Passenger and freight Service
on the Pennsylvania railroad was de-
layed several hours owing to trees
being blown across the tracks at Wet-
more. Farmers were also heavy losers
caused by the hail. Sheffield, Mt. Jew-
ett and Ludlow also report heavy
losses from the storm.
Uniontown.—Men sought shelter be-
hind friendly trees, houses and coal
sheds, while hundred of women and
children ran screaming hysterically
about when Luther White, aged 21,
following a fist fight which preceded
the first inning of a baseball game
at Mt. Braddock, went to his home
and securing a Winchester rifle,
threatened everybody on the field. He
was overpowered by the umpire,
“Mont” McCormick, and two spec-
tators, who, while his attention was
drawn to one part of the diamond,
grabbed him from the rear and took
the weapon from him. After being
overpowered White was arrested and
taken before Justice of the Peace G.
A. McCauley. Nobody thought of ex-
amining the gun until the justice
asked for it as evidence. When the
justice opened the chamber he dis-
covered it was empty. There was a
general laugh among the men in the
court room, but the justice, who did
not think it a laughing matter, com-
mitted White to the Fayette county
jail to await a hearing in court on
charges of pointing firearms, assault
and battery and disorderly conduct.
Pittsburgh.—Edward Linn, alleged
to be the man who rented a room at
the home of Mrs. Anna Funstall,
South Millvale avenue, and disap-
peared, taking with him about $300
worth of jewelry, was arrested in
Youngstown, O., and will be brought
to this city. .
Kittanning—When a hoop on a
large tank which contained 25 bar-
rels of vinegar, shipped here by the
Cruikshank Brothers company of
Pittsburgh, broke a steady stream of
people carrying tubs, buckets, pitchers
and other vessels visited the freight
car on which the tank was shipped
and carried away most of the liquid.
York.—A blaze partly destroyed the
Foust distillery near Glen Rock. A
bucket brigade did good work, but
was unable to check the flames, which
were confined to the distillery, a two-
story stone building. The loss is
about $10,800.

HIS “GUESS” EASILY THE BEST
Schoclmaster Did a Little Thinking
and Astonished His Crowd of
Competitors.
Men wonder at what they do not |
understand, but a seeming marvel
often becomes absurdly simple when
it is explained. Many years ago &
schoolmaster, in the course of his
travels, had occasion to stay for a day
or two at a country travern. As he
sat in the public room with a dozen
other persons, evidently natives of the
place, there came along a man with a
fat hog that he was driving to market.
Leaving the animal outside, he en-
tered the inn and joined the little
company. Several of the latter went
to the window to look at the hog.
“That’s a fine pig you've got thers,
neighbor,” remarked one. “Do you
know what he’ll weigh?” :
“Yes, sir,” returned the pig's owner,
“I had him on the scales just before
I started out. What do you guess he'll
weigh?” :
The questioner, thus questioned in
turn, looked at the pig carefully, and
made a guess. The owner turned to
the rest of the company, and said:
“Will not somebody else give a
guess? Just for the fun of it, let
everybody have a try.” :
The proposal met with favor. One
after another the men eyed the pig
critically, and ‘aftém due considera-
tion, gave their estimates of His
weight. The schoolmaster, who
seemed deeply absorbed in his own
thoughts, alone took no part in the
contest. But he was not to be let
off. -
“Say, friend,” the owner of the pig]
urged, aren’t we going to hear from
you?”
The pedagogue, who perhaps had
never in his life looked attentively at
a pig, rose, went to the window, and
gazed out at this one. He deliberated
for a moment, then, with modest res-
itation, named a certain number of
pounds. :
At hearing it, the eyes and the
mouth of the pig’s owner opened wide
in astonishment.
“Wal, I swan!” he exclaimed.
“You're the champion! All the others
guessed either over or under, but
you’ve hit it almost to a pound.”
Every one stared at the schoolmas-
ter admiringly, but no one was shrewd
enough to tell how he had been able |
to make so good a guess. It had not |
been a lucky hit, although he could
have done quite as well without see-
ing the pig. He knew nothing about
swine, but he knew a good deal about '
figures. Having heard the guesses of |
11 more or less expert judges, he had |
added together their guesses, divided
the sum by 11, and “guessed” the re- |
sult.—Youth’s Companion.
MANY MEN WITHOUT RELIGION
Agnosticism and Deliberate Unbelief |
Astonishingly Prevalent Among
Citizens of Florence, Italy,
Prof. Ugo Gusti, head of the statis- |
tics bureau cof Florenee, gives some |
curious particulars in regard to the
religious beliefs of the Florentines,
declared in last year’s census. |
Heading the section of “No Religion” |
about ten per cent. are printers and |
about the same number of profession-
al men and artists, nine pér cent. of
civil servants, the finer trades and
railway and tramway employes. In
answer to the query on:their religion
curious answers were received.
“I believe in the God of Garibaldi
and Mazzini,” “Religion is home,”
“Catholic, but do not believe in God’s
ministers,”- “Catholic of my own con-
science,” “Agnostic,” “Positivist,” “Ma-
terialist,” “Anti-clerical Christian,”
“Anti-Catholic Christian.”
In the population of 232,860 almost
205,695 declare themselves to be Cath-
olic, 1,641 Protestants, Protestants of
other nationalities 1,798, Jews 2,569,
other creeds 144, no religion 8,315, un-
declared 12,798.
Early Showed Heroism.
As a boy, Rear Admiral Young, who
died last month, showed qualities that
were sure to out him in the front rank
of his profession. As a midshipman,
he leaped overboard to rescue a. sea-
man, and before the boats could be
lowered and rowed to him, he was
three miles astern, swimming and
supporting the unconscious sailor.
Later, when the ship Huron was
wrecked on a reef off the North Caro-
lina coast, he and another man tried
to reach the shore on a raft. When
the raft capsized, he not only swam
ashore, but dragged his companion to
safety with him. Then he ran to a life-
saving station, broke into the build-
ing, dragged out the apparatus, and
succeeded in saving 34 officers and
men out of a crew of a hundred and
thirty-two. For this act of heroism
congress advanced him in rank, and
the legislature of Kentucky, his native
state, made him an honorary member.
—Youth's Companion.
Save the Label.
“Awkwardness in pouring medicine
from a bottle cost me $2,” a man said.
“Because I poured it out on the label
side and got the number of the pre-
scription ang the date’ blurred the
druggist wouldn’t refill it, and I had
to give the doctor another call. I
got no sympathy from the druggist.
“‘But you had to learn your les-;
son, he said. ‘Nearly everybody does. !
It seems second nature for everybody
except nurses, doctors and druggists
to pour medicine from the label side
ofa bottle. The professionals never
do. They always pour from the oppo-
site side and keep the label clean.
Laymen, after they have paid the
price of a consultation for the expe-
rience, also adopt that method.”
