From reports that are constantly COM
ing in from various road districts it is
certain that much of the improvement
Of the past years has been swept away
by the late unprecedented floods. Turn
pixies have been turned to cutters,
bridges have been swept away or badly
damaged, culverts have been torn out,
and it will require all the road funds OF
this year to repair the roads and bridges
and make them as good as when the
storm broke upon US.

Reading the Riot Act.

The Oxford Press says In the
Lancaster County Court Monday
week, Judge Livingston read the riot
act to constab'es who have steadily
shut their eye to notorious resorts
and violations of the liquor laws.
The Judge said that if any constable
perjured himself m making his re-
turn and was convicted of that offence
the Court would show him no mercy
He also animadverted severely upon
the action of grand and petit jurors
who have evinced wanton and will
full disregard of the law and the
evidence "relating to the keeping of
disorderly houses and like offences D
He made the charge broadly that in
cases of this character, verdicts of
acquittal had been rendered sin the
face of most positive evidence of
guilt" Such action he characterize d
as guilty, criminal they so unlaw-
fully acquit." Immediately follow
ing the Judges charge Jacob Warfel,
who kept hotel in Conestoge town
ship, was convicted of violating the
liquor laws and sent to Jail for four
months, aid Harry Diggs of olum-
bia, received four months sentence
on like CHARGE
The riot act will have to be read
in some other courts not thousand
miles from Lancaster county before
jurors and constables learn their
duties in sustaining liquor laws. And
it wouldn't be amiss to give wit
nesses taste of perjury law penalty.

members of the order.
The session was inaugurated by q

DR.. Billiard made The address Of
the evening and a thoroughgoing
prohibition speech it was. The Dr's
address was frequently interrupted
by hearty applause.
The address of DR.. Billiard was
followed by lecture and Rotations
by G. A, Mosher the old Baltimore
warborse of prohibition. The lecture
was illustrated by stereopticon views
of the human stomach in its normal,
healthful condition through the sew

it reaches the black cancerous mass
which ends in death by delirium ire.

scientific evidence that cannot be re-
futed, that alcoholic poison is evil
and only evil to the human system.
This part of the lecture was followed
by series of views in Bible lands
of a most interesting character, sue.
cceeded by number of very beauti.
full miscellaneous pictures thrown on
the canvas. Mr.. Mosher closed
his intensely interesting and in
structive lecture by several amusing
pieces for the chldren's special en-
tertainment.
The entertainments ON the whole
was one of the most interesting and
highly instructive exhibitions ever
given in Rising Sun, and the Order
earned the grateful thanks Of this
whole section of country, which was
heartily rendered the strangers who
came into our midst with more

The Hall was crowded to it's utmost
capacity, by an audience that seem

solemn truths presented by the
leared lecturers, who held them spell
bound till half part ten o'clock. May

become more aggressive in the work.
The Cornet Band turned out in

the entertainment by interspersing
