In .spite of the fact that ttiie

"000 pennies last year, and many
other millions In years before, the
mystery of where the little coppers
so is still unsolved, and Director of
the Mint George E. Roherts esti
mates the big plant will mako an
other lOO.'OOO.OOO this' year. Pen
nies, more so than any other sort at
coin, tllsapiear from circulation very
mysteriously. The government docs
not mind coining them, however,, j
for It yleldb a fine profit. A pound!
of copper, costing now about 13
cents, will make a dollar In pennies.
The Lyric was well filled with
nn appreciative audience on Thursday
evening who were there to witness
"The Lottery Man." To say that
everybody -was pleased is putting it
very mild. The plot Is unique and
well put together and presents phases
of life which are not uncommon, and
while there was 'iho usual exaggera
tion of character which Is necessary
to emphasize same on tho stage, yet
there was nothing overdone in this
line. Every player was up in their
parts, at perfect ease and tho play
ran smoothly from beginning to end.
To the newspaper men it was unusu
ally interesting as Jitck was an ideal
news gatherer. f
One of tho vilest and most mis
erable creatures whoso presence is
allowed to afflict this beautiful
world, Is tho wretch who visits our
cemeteries and despoils tho graves
of loved ones by stealing blooming
plants, cut flowers, ribbons attach
ed to bouquets and wreathe, and car
ries them away for their own per
sonal use. This practice bus been
Indulged in to a considerable extent
of late in Glen Dyberry and the
management Is now fully determin
ed to mako an example of tho first
culprit to bo arrested and convicted.
?',ho following! Is the law relating
6 the species of sacrilege: Any per
son or persons who shall wilfully
and maliciously destroy, mutilate,
Injure, pluck off, deface or remove
therefrom, any tree or trees, vines,
flowers, grass or ornamental shrub
bery, growing, being or temporarily
placed therein, for ornamental or
useful purposes, In any ccmetory or
graveyard in this commonwealth
used for the interment In and upon
private enclosures in nny cemotery
or graveyard aforesaid, shall bo
guilty of a misdemeanor, and on
conviction of any said offences be
sentenced to undergo an imprison
ment not exceeding one year, or to
pay a lino of not exceeding' one
hundred dollars, or both or either,
at the discretion of the court.

Stato Will Only Muko Surveys for
Cash Tux; Townships,
In an opinion given tho state high
way ..department Assistant Deputy
Attorney General William M. Har
gest clears up somo knotty points
in uio jones uirt road bill of 1803.
In regard to tho townBhlp road
act. tho highway department wished
to know if it could legally incur any
exponso in furnishing plans and
specifications to townships which
have elected to adopt tho work sys
tem of road tax or If tho depart
ment could make surveys for
such townships. Tho appropri
ation for this purpose carrlod
by tho act Is payable only to town
ships which collect their road taxes
solely in cash, nnd Hargest holds
that, Inasmuch as tho evident pur
pose of tho act Is to encourage cash
gurveys, etc., for townships collecting
only cash tax should he kept within
the ?20 milo limit or charged
ngalnst the appropriation a3 n whole,
Ilnrgest holds thnt such expenses
should bo chargod ngalnst tho en.
tire appropriation nnd thnt tho bal
I mice mny then bo subdivided among
the townships entitled to it, ench
township receiving not moro than
20 per milo in nddltion to nny ex
penses Tor surveys.
Tho opinion on tho Cumberland
rond was asked becauso the super
visors of West Bethlehem township,
Washington county, levied n road
tax upon a toll-gnto property. Mr,
Hargest holds that since tho plko is
tlio property of tlio state, it cannot
bo taxed,
