About Roads in England.

A late writer who has studied the
subject says that in England every
County Council has a standing COM
mittee On roads, which takes charge Of
the highways and keeps them in re-
pair. The committee Is divided into
subcommittee, to each Of which is
assigned a district. There is an In
spector for each division, who employs
a force Of road members aud holds
each responsible for a portion of a
road assigned him. The road mender
lives in a cottage on the line Of the
highway, which he is required to keep
in order. He goes over the road every
day and removes In q barrow every
thing that is unslghtly. After each
heavy rain he looks out for breaks,
and mends them BY dumping loads of
flint where needed. Supplies of flint
are kept along the road at intervals,
ready for the use OF the road mender,
He watches the road the year around,
and If there is any neglect he receives
a sharp warning from the Inspector.

Many Of our readers may remember On
item in this paper year ago last fall which
stated that Mr.. William Simpson, well.to-
do farmer, living near Rugby, Ind, had been
stricken with paralysis Of the lower limbs,
and his recovery was doubtful.
The case which was ON unusually: severe
and complicated one has at last been entirely
cured, to the utmost surprise and joy of Mr.
Simpson and his family.
Mr.. Simpson was pleased to relate to a
reporter the particulars regarding his case,
and his subsequent recovery.
"a year ago last fall, !" began Mr.. Stimp-
son, "T did large amount of work. My

he believed they would do me more good than
anything which he knew Of, as he had used
them with great success in case very similar

EAST RIVER TUNNEL.
More Details of the Great Scheme of
the Corbin Estate.

New York, Jan. 11-AS announced a
few days ago, a syndicate of New York
millionaireS has secured absolute con-
troll of the Long Island railroad and the
Austin Corbin interests and now pur--
poses carrying out Mr. Corbin's pet
scheme, that of a tunnel under the
East river connecting New York and
Brooklyn.
The stock represented will be of par
value of S. 500, 600 out of the entire cap
ital of $12,0 900 of the road.
The proposed tunnel under the river
can be constructed at an estimated cost
of Sc 600, 600. The charter belongs to
the Pennsylvania Railroad and permits
the continuance of the tunnel from this
city to Jersey City should it be deemed
advisable. Mr.. Corbin during his life
time, obtained from the railroad the
right to use this charter
Two stations for the accommodation of
passengers will be provided in this city
On the Brooklyn side a station will be
built near the City Hall and the other
at the station of the Long Island road.
1t is now thought that electricity will
be the motive power of the trains run
ming through the tunnel. A project is
under consideration for the elevation
and at certain points depression of the
Atlantic Avenue Railroad through the
thickly settled portion of Brooklyn.
Half of the expense will be borne by
the railroad and half by the city. Ex-
press trains could thus be started from
! CORTLAND street, New York, and run
| by means of connections to any point
| on Long Island.

AN INTRICATE PLOT
To Defraud Concocted by Persons at
Santa Rosa, Cal.

Santa Rosa, Cal, Jan. n.-Horace
Hall, a white-haired old man over 60
years of age, and VIM. Rusk, about 25
years his junior. are in Jail here
charged with a peculiar offense- Rusks
father is a wealthy citizen of Atwater,
Ill. The young man left home about
ten years ago. The scheme was for
young Rusk to die, figuratively speak
ing, and then under the name of Brown
to become administrator of his estate.
After this was done Hall was to. write
to Rusk's parents telling them that
Rusk was dead and that Rusk had Dor
rowed $4,000 from Hall, which Brown,
the administrator refused to pay until
he heard from RuSkS father.
The letter was couched in sympathetic
terms, but made it very plain that it
was Rusk's duty to send the money to
Brown so he could pay the debt of his
alleged dead son. Had it not been for
the Illinois farmers desire to see the
remains of his son the game would
probably have worked, but after tele-
graphing a number of times about the
body to Brown and Hall and getting
no satisfaction, he became suspicious.
Hall and Rusk bitterly upbraid each
other for the failure of their plans.

INCORRIGIBLE GIRL.
Escaped From a House of Refuge,

Baltimore. Mr., Jan. 11.-Daisy Cole

was going on in the main hall, she, with
an older girl, broke into the matron's
room. They appropriated the matron's
clothing, leaving their own uniforms
behind got out on the fire escape,
crawled down and scaled a barbed wire
fence. Once without, the pair separ-

ed the woods and remained all night.
Yesterday morning she went to the

sci commanded by Captain William
Wyatt To him she told her story, and
so deeply did he Sympathize that he
proposed marriage. The girl promptly
accepted and late last night they called
on Rev. Richard Schmidt, pastor of the
Friends Reformed Evangelical church,
who united them. Now comes the
question, who has prior claim on her,
her husband or the state? Justice jan
etzke who was consulted, thought the
authorities had prior claim A law
yer was consulted and he will apply
for a writ of habeaS corpus, bringing
