"Yes, remember that anecdote," the
Sunday-school superintendent said,
with the old psthos in his voice, and a
sad look In his eyes. at was about q
simple creature named Higgins, who
used to haul rock for old Malthy.
When the lamented Judge Bagley
tripped and fell down the court house
stairs and broke his neck, It was great
question how to baeak the news to poor
Mrs. Bagley. But, finally, the body
was put into Higgins wagon, and he
was instructed to take 1t to Mrs. b., but
to be very guarded and discreet in his
language, and not break the news to
her at once, but to do It gradually and
gently, When Higgins got there with
his freight. he shouted till Mrs. Bagley
came to the door.
Then he said: 'Dees the WiddeI
Bagley live herer

Good roads have q money value

In his "Road Legislation for the Amer

like Pennsylvania. They are q little
more systematically drained than ours
are, but there Is the counterbalancing
disadvantage that prairie soil makes
aworse foundation than our hilly and
mountainous country. On Illinois
roads full load for a two-horso team
can be carried for three months Of the
year, two-thirds of load for three
months, and half a load for six

think how much of the year any coun.

hard enough TO wheel over it the full
load which two horses can pull over {
smooth, hard roadway on which tn,
wheels cut no ruts. If the average roat
Is not as low as In Illinois, 1t will CONT
near 1t. The Illinois roads cost $15,
$4,000 in extra hauling and reduce
the value of farms at distance from
railroad depots by $l60,000,O00. If II
llnois spent $250,000 on good road

Mere Bond-stsaI Revelations.

New Orleans, La, Nov. 2.-Another
phase of the bond fraud was developed
yesterday, which shows an additional
defaleation of between SS500O0 and
100000.
For the past two weeks the State
Auditor and Treasurer have been in
Yestigating the reported over-issue Of
baby bonds by ex-Treasurer Burke.
These bonds are Of the denomination
of IS and were issued in place of past
due State warrants. They were issued
with the expectation that they would
be returned to the treasury in pay
ment of back taxes, of which several
millions were due the State.
The total issue, as carried on the
books of the State Treasurer and Aud
itor, was 81 100000 but as no provision
was made by the Legislature for pay
ment Of interest on the bonds, there
was no check upon their issue BY the
Treasurer, in whose hands were placed
the plates from which the bonds were
printed.
From the beginning OF the recent in
vestigauon into ex-Treasurer Burke's
accounts there has been suspicion
that there was an over-issue of baby
bonds, and the present Auditor and
Treasurer have been carefully going
over the matter.
Yesterday they came to the city
from Baton Rouge, and, II Is said, re-
ported to Gov. Nichols that they had
discovered that there had been an
over-issue of the baby bonds to large
amount. They are not yet able to fix
the exact sum, but II is said to be bo.
tween three hundred and fifty and foul
hundred thousand dollars.
II Is intimated that the over-issues
will bo found to be considerably aboys
those figures, as many OF the bonds
have been paid In for back taxes, O
which there is no record In the Treas
urers Office. The grand jury viii TAKE
the baby bond feature of the bono
frauds up to-day.

ours the paths of peace, beseeching
Him to bless the day to ourpresent AMI
future good, making It truly ono 0
thanksgiving for each reunited hom'
circle aud for the nation at large.
In witness thereof haye hereunt'
set my hand and caused the seal of th,
