A Now Plan.

The citizens of Mauch Chunk town
ship need pay no road taxes. The
roads Of the township, some thirty
miles, are kept in repairs by the Lehigh
Coal & Navigation Company, it bearing
the entire expense. This has been tho
custom for six years. The township
elects two supervisors who hire a force
of men, go over the roads make what
ever repairs are necessary and the Com
pany foots the bills, even to the super
visors' wages for every working day in
the year. The Company saves several
hundred dollars per annum by the
plan. Formerly, irresponsible super
visors would use up the entire amount
of ten mill tax and have the town
ship in debt besides.

An old A1auoh ChunEer Killed.

From last weeks Dover, Index we get
the following concerning the death Of
an old Mauch Chunk printer:
"a despatch was received in Dover by
Station Agent Carren at an early hour
on Thursday, 3Oth ult., that a man
named George Clark was found dead
in oulvert on the D. L, & w. R. R.,
near Delaware station, and to enquire
at the Index about him.
The matter was further investigated
and by telegraphing to Delaware
station, and Supt. Reasoner, the facts
were gradually brought out that from
papers on the dead man 1t was George
E, A, Clark, to wit; A man 5 feet 5
inches high; gray hair; gray mustache,
heavy on ends, none in middle lip, age
about 66. From papers in his pockets
it showed he was discharged from the
Mexican War, also paper from War
1861 Co, B, 1Sath Regt. Pennsylvania
Vol, also Co. B. 18th Penn. Calvalry.
He was dressed in a blue suit Grand
Army style.
How he met his death we could not
hear, but it seems as If he was walking
along the railroad and In stepping out
of the way of one train stepped into
another, with fatal and sudden end
! ing to his life. We had often told him
to settle down and stop roaming or he
would meet death in some Of his tramps
/ on the railroads,
We offered to see that he was given a
decent burial if sent to Dover, but as
4 the Coroner and undertaken had the
' deceased in charge up there, it was
= deemed best to let him be buried in
that county, He would get the same
soldiery treatment there as here.

Delaware this morning TO attend the
