The Philadelphia papers contained yes
terday an account of the arrest of Post
master Winfield Rudderow, of this place,
by Evaline Seybert, or Mrs. Randall, as
she calls herself, of Camden. She is q
fortune teller and has many clients. She
has = three-year-old boy and she charges
Rudderow with being its father. She al.
leges that the postmaster had been init
mate with her Cor three years prior to the
boys birth. The reason she did not bring
the charge before is, she claims, because
she did not know Rudderow's right name,
and could not locate him. At the hear
ing Rudderow said he had only seen the
woman once, and denied the charge
stoutly. He says it is clear case of black
mail. He entered $500 bail for a further
hearing on Friday next.

BY the Way.

The farmers meet ting on Saturday de-
cided that something should be done in
relation to improving country roads per-
manently. Stone roads are wanted and
they are needed badly. 1t was resolved
that as many as possible shall 90 to to the
state house this winter and ask that a
law be framed by which the road i'm
provements shall be made by state aid.
1t is proposed that the cost shall be
borne by the state. county, township and
individual, and that the present patch
work, mud system shall cease. This is
one of the most important questions that
confront the farmer at this time. 1t is
evident to thinking men that farm val
ues will not increase until better roads
lead to them. The enormous expendi-
lures made in this state annually for
placing mud and so-called gravel on the
roads is simply appalling, amounting to
$340, 900, and without any benefit worth
mentioning. The rational expenditure Of
this money on permanent Improvements
would alone give us many miles of good
roads, but with state aid IN addition
great deal more can be done without any
increase in taxation. There are many
farmers who see the necessity of i'm
proyement, but there are just as many
who cannot seem to grasp the idea that it
will increase the value of their proper
ties. In other localities it has been
learned that land increased from Is to 40
per cent. in value as soon as a stone road
was built from it to large city. 1t Gre
ated demand for the property at once.
and when there is a demand the price
goes up. The state government is said TO
be favorable to this question let it, there
fore, be pushed for all 1t is worth, and
continue to be pushed until the stone
roads are built.

the society on new, instead of second

effeminacy. IL was the parasol which
gave birth TO the umbrella, and a

forever. French ladies In the sixteenth
century, who as spectators followed
deer hunts, carried parasols fringed
with gold and ornamented with
costly pearls. Walters at cafes and
restaurants once supplied clients with
umbrelias, counting upon a gratuity in
exchange. but negligence in returning
umbrellas ruined the convenience.
For short time in France, when pri-
vate undertakers existed, il was-as it
is at present-considered evidence OF
greater respect for the deceased to

carriage. The undertaken kept a

But the item for compensation for I'M

bill became so extravagant that funeral
umbrellas had to be abandoned because
of its extravaganza. It was fact then
that funerals on wet days were always
the best attended. Perhaps if the

that excepting Anthony's reputation a

Population and Climate.


In former ages, when men were more
at the mercy of the elements than they
now are, the great masses of popu-
lation were located in warm countries.
They swarmed in the lands where they
needed little shelter and little cloth
ing, while the cold northern countries
were thinly populated.
In the present age, when men NAV
make tropical climate for themselves
within four walls, when warm clothing
is abundant and easily obtained, the
centers of population are found on
what may be called the colder half of
the temperate zone.
Some figures recently issued by the
Superintendent of the Census show in
an interesting way the distribution OF
the people of the United States with
regard to temperature.
The mean annual temperature OF the
United States, excepting Alaska. is fiftv.
three degrees Fahrenheit, and the fio.
ures show that the part of the country
where this is the actual mean temper.
ature is the center of the greatest
density OF population.
In other words, the greatest density
of population centers between the line
where the mean annual temperature is
fifty degrees and the line where it is
fifty-five degrees; and as one goes
north or south of this line, to colder
or warmer average, the density of
population rapidly diminishes.
More than half the population of
the country lives under q mean annual
temperature between forty-five and
fifty-five degrees.
At the same time that the mass OF
population has sought a moderately
cool climate as best meeting the needs
Of life under present conditions, it has
sought region of abundant but not
excessive rainfall. Figures put forth
by the Superintendent of the Census
show that three fourths OF the people
of the United States inhabit the dis
tricts where the annual rainfall is be-
tween thirty and fifty inches.
The greatest density of population is
in the area which has from forty TO
fifty inches of yearly rainfall. On
either side as the rainfall increases OF
decreases-the maximum Of the coun-
try being above seventy inches and the
minimum below ten inches-the popu-
lation diminishos.
