We are heartily glad to see by last
weeks REGISTER that an appropriation
has been made by our county for the
purpose of repairing the badly damag-
Ell roads. We hope the West End may
receive some notice, for, if ever roads
were bad anywhere, they are that same
here, and maybe that is why candidates
are as scarce as hen teeth, or maybe
they have been warned by one who
canvassed here last year and who re-
marked that had it not been for apples
and peaches he would have starved
while in the West End. Maybe we will
give him our vote again!
Mr. Muse has been employed to
teach during the ensuing term IL our
district, of which fact we are pleased
to notice. He taught Us a model school

Mr.. Patterson, instead of Mrs. Adams,
will teach the school at Clones.
We hardly know how to show our
appreciation of such a man as Prof.
Vance, who, in our opinion, is doing a
great work in Iron county by doing all
he can to furnish good teachers for our
tender little ones, who need to be guild
ed carefully in the paths of truth and
learning, during their first school days,
if we would have them grow up useful
citizens. The Professor has our best
wishes for his future prosperity where
ever his lot may be cast.

q Remarkable Funeral.

James Johnston, the man whose bach
was broken last summer by being thrown
from a hand car on the Beech Creek rail-
road, died on Saturday at his home, near
Kyler's mill. Johnston was buried by
the township overseers of the poor. The
circumstances attending the burial are
noteworthy on account of the difficulties
attending it. Johnston's house is nShe
right hand of Moshannon creek, in a
wild, lonely spot, remote from other
houses and almost inaccessible.
The only approach to it is by a narrow,
rickety foot bridge which spans the
creek, which on Saturday was swollen
by the recent rains to raging torrent.
The coffin had to be carried across the
bridge, and the task, after several at.
tempts, was accomplished by making a
harness of straps fastened to each end of
the coffin and buckled around the shout
ders OF two men, who by clinging to the
single handrail succeeded in getting
across, although the frail bridge swayed
and sank with their weight until the
swift current splashed over it.
After the body was placed in the cot.
fin the men started back. They found
that with the additional weight of the
corpse the bridge would not bear them,
and, after several Intellectual attempts
to carry it over, they finally got it over
by rigging harness to the stoutest man,
who then dragged it over with much
difficulty and peril.
There was no minister present, no
mourners and no funeral services were
held over the poor fellows body. Phila-
delphia Letter.

Valuable Real Estate.

The prodigious increase in the value of
Fifth avenue property is indicated by
the terms in which part of the land at
the southwest corner of Fifth avenue
and Thirtietn street, upon which the
new hotel, the Holland house, stands, has
been leased by Mrs. Mary J. Van Doren,
the builder and owner of that imposing
edifce 1t is understood that Mrs. Van
Doren was able to buy outright three
fourths of the land necessary for the site.
but that for the corner part of it she was
compelled to pay the almost incredible
ground rent of $13, 900 year clear, she
agreeing to pay the taxes.
1t is understood also that the lease is
for 100 years. Hence the owner of this
land and the heirs will enjoy an income
of $13, 900 per year, free of all burden or
expenses, for the next 100 years. Think
of it! Thirteen hundred thousand dol
lars merely for the use of piece of
land on Fifth avenue corner, without
the owner being obliged to spend one
cent for improvements, taxes or any
other form Of outlay. Fortunate, in
deed, are the possessors and inheritors of
Fifth avenue corner lots.-New York
