(Continued from (Lett page,) The Following Rules and Rcgula tions to the Town Supervisors and Overseers were Ap proved and Adopted. It shall be the policy of the County Board in the future to concentrate as much ss possible its funds for use upon the main traveled roads in the county and in order to obtain the beet results it would advise each township to plan Its work so that it be done in jobs aggregating MOO or 1500, so that in each township at least one or more miles of finished road may be built such year. In order to obtain county aid it will be necessary for each township board to make an estimate in writing to the county board stating the amount of money needed to be expended on a designated piece of road, stating length of road to be improved and approximate amount of grading, ditching or graveling to be done. This work, if approved by the county board, shall be constructed by the township board under the supervision and advice of the State Engineer and by the Commissioner of the District, and subject to his approval. When such work has been completed and approved by the state engineer and a detailed statement showing the nature and cost of such work has been filed with the county auditor the county board will pay one-half the cost of such work, such coBt not to exceed the estimate of the township board and no allowance to be made by the county board in case work is not approved by the State Engineer. In all new road construction whether making grades, ditching or cutting- of hills, the services of the State Engineer shall be required and all work must be carried out as designated by him. Such services are paid by the State Highway Commission and entail no expecse on the county or township. All roads, before graveling is done on them, must be perfectly drained and properly graded and rounded up and must be perfectly smoothed snd rounded up in the center with a split log drag. Such grade shall be at least 16 to 20 feet wide and the crown shall not be less than six inches and in new construction work not less than ten inches. The distance between ditches along both sides of the road shall be 30 feet and on swampy ground the distance shall be 50 feet. No sod shall be used in the construction of any road unless it can be covered by at least two or three feet of solid dirt. Iu order to encourage proper graveling of roads the county com missioners will agree to pay at the rate of 10 cents per oublc yard for all gravel placed on the road which la taken from approved gravel pits and placed upon roads that are properly drained, graded and crowned and all holes and ruts having first been filled with solid clean dirt, provided further thatsueh gravel be free from sod, vegetables, soils or foreign matter and that It be evenly and smoothly deposited to rope lines laid true and parallel to the center line at a distance of not less than 7 or more than 8 fee1 and all stones more than one inch in size be kept below the finishing surface. On all roads designated as state roads no change shall be made there on without the consent of the State Engineer and after state or county funds have been expended upon any portion of said road all work there after done on such portion must be done according to the rules and regulations of the State Highway Commission, whether done by county or town authorities. No further allowance of county or town fuuds can be made on such Improved road If the pathmaster or township officers allow sod or vegetable matter to be placed thereon, or allow dirt to be placed upon graveled portions or allow ditches and culverts to become or remain clogged to the detriment of the drainage system. The practice of using the highway for a turning place with plows or other farm Imple ments must be stopped, by enforcing the state laws against destroying ditches and mutilating highways, if necessary. A very important part of road work is general maintenance and to this end the best qualified man in each district should be chosen and when an over seer has demonstrated his ability he should be retained as long as possible in this position, thereby becoming more valuable to the town through bis Increasing knowledge of the details of road work and especially the drainage system. Whenever a low place appears in the traveled track it should be filled with the same material of which the road is made* Weeds and brush must be cut down on the right of way and burned. Whenever the growth of trees on the sides casts too much shadow on the traveled track it should be thinned out and all remaining trees trimmed to a height of at least 8 feet. It is most important that ruts and holes be kept out of all roads as they hold water from every rain and soften the road bed. This can be accom plished by log dragging the road after each soakiug rain and while the ground is still moist. This log dragging should be done about ten or twelve times each season and path masters should arrange their work so that this is done in every district. The County Commissioners area unit in their desire to work for road betterment in all yintcfo the county and will strive to* give assistance where most needed, providing the township officers and road overseers show by conscientious, faithful and intelligent work that they want to do all in their power to build and main tain permanent roads and will in every oase give preference to such townships in which its officers can show that they are putting forth their best efforts in permanent road building and maintenance.

The Mysterious Light That George Cary Egglesten Defied. There was and perhaps still Is room In a certain boose In Virginia which was supposed to be haunted. Every time a person slept there he would be sure to wake after awhile to find the whole room pervaded by a dim yellowish gray or grayish yellow light It was very dim at first, but it Increased steadily till the occupant of the chamber fled from the nameless terror in panic. Mr. George Cary Eg gleston was not to be daunted by these tales snd accordingly decided to try a night there, in "Recollections of a Varied Life" he tells what happened: It was about midnight when I en tered the room. It was raining heav ily, and the wind was rattling the •tout shutters of the eight great win dows of the room. 1 went to each of those windows and minutely examined it They were hung with heavy curtains of deep red. Having completed my examination, explored the closets and bolted the door, I went to bed. The great four poster was Inexpressibly comfortable. snd the splash and patter of the rain as It beat upon the window blinds was ss soothing as a lullaby. I forgot all about the experiment In which I was engaged, all about ghosts and their ways, and went to sleep. After a time I suddenly waked to find the room dimly pervaded by that yellowish gray or grayish yellow light which had so disturbed the slumbers of others in that chamber. My awak ening was so complete that all my fac ultles were alert at once. I felt under my pillow and found the pistol still where I had placed It. Instead of springing hastily from bed, I lay there for a time, watching the weird light as it slowly, almost imperceptibly, increased in intensity. 1 decided that the gray distinctly pre dominated, but In the meantime the steady increase In the light and its pervasiveness warned me, and I slip ped out of bed. The rain was still beating heavily against the window blinds, and the strange yellowish gray light was still slowly but steadily increasing. I was resolute, however, in my determina tion not to be disturbed or hurried by any manifestation. In response to that determination I glanced at the mirror and decided that the mysterious light was sufficient for the purpose, and I resolved I would shave. Having done so, I bathed in the rap idly increasing light I was deliberate, however, in donning my clothing, and not till I was fully dressed did I turn to leave the room. I turned the key. A second later I was out of that chamber, and the oak en door of it was securely shut behind me. I went down the great stairway, slowly, deliberately, in pursuance of my resolution. I entered the large hallway below and thence passed to the oak wainscoted dining room. where I^sat down to breakfast with the rest of the company. It was 9 o'clock of a dark, rainy morning. The grayish yellow light waa-dajUght A Woman's Sacrifice. Three years ago a startling tale came to light concerning a prominent busi ness man in Austria. He found him self on the brink of ruin, and his wife came to his rescue at the cost of her own life. Leaving an overheated room one night, she walked up and down a stone flagged passage, barefoot and with nothing on but a nightdress, till she caught a chill which she aggravat ed by a series of reckless acts. In flammation of the lungs set in, and she died shortly afterward. Her husband obtained the large sum of money BBTM f,ir which her life was insured, and with this he was able to pull through the crisis successfully. He married for a second time within three months of his first wife's death. This husband did not get off scot free, however. A serv ant In his employ bad overheard the conversation in which the heroic young wife had told her husband her intention to die for his sake The serv ant Informed the police. Then the in surance companies contended It was a case of suicide and sued successfully for the return of the money. The hus band was prosecuted for being an ac cessory to bis wife's death and re ceived the punishment he well merited A Great Dog Town. The greatest dog town in Great Britain, if not In the world, is Haver fordwest. There are a great many men in the town who live wholly and make a good living by breeding, buy ing and selling dogs. Although the populatipd Is only 6,000, at least 6,000 dog licenses are Issued annually, and there are also a large number of ex emptions. Almost daily there are more dogs than people in the public streets, though valuable animals are never allowed to run loose. Haver fordwest dog breeders are known for their working terriers, show terriers, pointers, setters and spaniels, which are daily traded for big sums through the fanciers' Journals and go every where. It is the home of the Sealy ham breed of terriers, the origin of which has puzzled the keenest sports men. One fancier's kennel recently sold by auction realized £200, but £250 Is not an unusual price for a single dog, while £60. £70 and £80 are almost common The quaint old town, with Its mixed Welsh, English and Flem ish population, is almost the hub of the dogs' universe.—Fur News Never tell a man that he has made a fool of himself If he knows it he will get angry, and he will get angry also if he doesn't know It SPOKE TOA GHOST Queer Incident In Which Bishop Wilberforce Figured. THE STORY THE SPIRIT TOLD. Singular Disclosure That Was Said te Have Been Made by the Quiet Cleri oal toaster That Hsd Leng Haunted an English Country House. Tbe following remarkable Incident in the life of the late Samuel Wilberforce. bishop of Oxford snd afterward of Winchester, is relsted ss sbsolutely au thentic, and the good bishop himself is said to bave many times rehearsed the story to his friends: On a certain occasion the worthy bishop had accepted an invitation 4xh stay at a country house not fsr from' London. Entering tbe drawing room previous to dinner on the evening of his arrival, he noticed a clergyman sit ting by the open fire and taking no part In the general conversation. The bishop was somewhat surprised at not being presented to the clergyman, and bis astonishment was great when a few moments later, dinner being an nounced, the guests retired, leaving the clergyman at his place by the fire. Tbe hostess having assigned Bishop Wil berforce tbe seat of honor at her right hand, as soon as an opportunity offer ed he remarked: "I beg your pardon, madam, but may 1 inquire who was tbe clergyman we left sitting In the drawing room?" "Ah, you have seen him, then?" re plied the lady. "It is not every one who has that privilege I cannot tell you who be is or whence he comes. For many years this specter has haunt ed the house and grounds. It has, in fact, been a tradition In tbe family. He seems to do no harm, and, although he appears only occasionally, we have be come quite accustomed to our friendly ghost" "How very singular!" remarked his lordship. "But have you never ad dressed your specter?" "Indeed. I bave had no opportunity, nor tbe desire, for that matter," re sponded tbe hostess, growing pale. "May I take tbe liberty now?" in quired the dignitary. "With all my heart year lordship," replied the lady. Tbe bishop arose and, returning to tbe drawing room, found the clergyman where be had left him a few minutes before. Hav ing no fear, the bishop said kindly: "Who are you, my friend, and why are you here?" The specter seemed to sigh deeply and say as though to Itself, "At last!" Then in a hollow voice, addressing the bishop, it continued: "I am the spirit of a clergyman who left this w,orld some eighty years ago, and I am here to Impart to any one who will receive It a secret which died with me. I could not rest In my grave while a great wrong was being done which It was in my power to right I have been returning all these years In the hope some one would address me, for It was not given to me to be the first to speak. All men have shunned me until now, and It is yonr mission to do my bidding. I was called to this house eighty years ago to receive a confession from a dying man. He was the sole possessor of a secret the knowledge of which would alter ma terially the entail of this vast estate, and in his death he wished to repair the terrible wrong upon his kin. "At his request I wrote down the confession word for word as he gave It to me, and when he finished he ex pired in my arms It was very Impor tant that I should return to London that night, and in passing through the library to leave the house I concluded It would be safer not to carry the pa per on which was written the confes sion away with me, but to place it in some secure, unseen spot, where I could obtain it the following day and deliver the document to the person for whom It was intended. Mounting the steps to the bookshelves. I took out a copy of Young's 'Night Thoughts.' which was tbe first book upon tbe up permost shelf nearest the last win dow, and, inserting the paper careful ly between its leaves, I replaced tbe book and departed. A horse was awaiting me at the door, but ere we reached the entrance of the grounds he took fright. I was thrown and In stantly killed Thus died the secret with me. No one has disturbed that book In all these years, and no one has had the courage to address this messenger from the unknown. The paper will be found as I have stated, and It remains for you to correct the Injustice which has so long been upon this noble family My mission Is over, and I can rest in peace." At the close of this remarkable speech the specter faded gradually from sight, and the bishop was left gazing into space Recovering from his astonishment, Bishop Wilberforce went at once to the library and found the book exactly as Indicated by the specter. In its secluded corner upon the top shelf, thick with the dust of ages, evidently the book had remained Unmolested many years There was the document just as described, but now faded and yellow The secret of the confessiou never became known to the world The good bishop regarded It as a confidence from the spiritual world and always ended the story with the assurance that the priestly specter was never again seen It is a fact, however, that about the time of this extraordinary occurrence the magnificent estate in question pass ed into possession of a remote member of the family who until then had lived in obscurity.—London Standard. mm1** mwi$\i i. «?i AND STANDARD HAND CHEESE LJMBTJRGER McCLARENS NIPPY RE FRONT GROCERY GOODS DELIVERED PROMPTLY.
