Caught Fish by the BusheI.

An abundantly stored fishing
ground, where several varieties of the
inny tribe can be scooped out of the
water with baskets as easily as shovel
ing coke with pitchforR, has been
discovered near Holmesburg Junction.
The new fishing ground is a pool
located in an abandoned quarry hole
near Pennypack Creek. The quarry
covers an area of half an acre OF more,
and the water, with which it was re-
Gently filled to depth of twenty-five
feet, ran in through shallow and
narrow ditch from the creek. The
carriers, who have been engaged for
some weeks in hauling dirt away from
the deep cut being dug on Rhawn
street to do away with the grade cross,
ing of the Pennsylvania Railroad at
that point, have been dumping eartk
into the quarry at the rate of 100G
carloads per day. Over 80, 900 cart.
loads have thus been thrown into THO
pool, which has consequently been
growing smaller every day. BY Satur-
day both the surface and the depth Of
the water had been so far reduced thas
there was but few square yards of il

Beware of the Klondike. This is
the conclusion that has been reached
by John D. 4IcGillivray, an expert on
gold, who sends letter telling of the
conditions which gold seekers are
confronted with in the Yukon region
in Alaska. Mr.. McGillivray had been
studying the situation in Dawson
City and the mines for several weeks
when the letter was written. He
calls particular attention to the fact
that all the claims on the richest Of
the gold creeks have already been
taken up, and that new comers must
prospect for themselves or work as
laborers in the mines already opened.

The Rhode Island Agricultural
College has made new departure in
its work of education that deserves
imitation by other institutions of that
character. Its faculty has established
special department for instruction
in the theory and practice OF road
making. The word curriculum is ETY.
mologically applicable to the pro-
posed course of instruction, which
covers two years, and the announce
ment of the details is interesting.
The plan is about to be put into OPP
Grafton after consultation with Gen
eral Roy Stone, the road expert of the
United States Department of Agricul-
ture, and its advocates are enthusias-
tic in their predictions that it will
bring intelligent industry to bear in
improving the highways and byways
Of the tidy little commonwealth.
It is required that graduates from
this school shall be competent to draw
specifications and contracts, to man
age all the machinery used in scientific
road-building. and to be familiar with
every detail of the profession of road
engineering. For instance, candidates
must pass an examination which in
cludes algebra and geometry to the
extent required for admission to any
college. The instruction includes
English literature, higher geometry,
trigonometry, surveying, electrical
mechanics, physical geography, min
eralogy, geology and steam engineer
ing.
But this is not all. That there is
no royal road to knowledge" will be
sternly impressed upon the aspirGnts
to the degree of road engineer by q
novel requirement.. For one month
each spring the students will be ex-
pected to work ten hours day at ac-
tual road-making, including all the
mechanical appliances, from welding
the pick and shovel to running the
most elaborate machinery. While
other collegiaus are training in such
athletics as rowing, running, leaping,
baseball and football, these sturdy
youths of Rhode Island will be bend

The clearing out of the old brick
partition from the crypt of the Capitol.
which was begun some time ago, has
been completed, and the whole place
has been painted. The effect is even
more wonderful than it promised to
be. [ doubt if there is anything
more impressive in the architecture Of
this Capital City than is this crypt. It
is solemnly, sombreiy grand. Its
grandeur disclosed for the first time
in twenty years, it seems as if it had
just been dug from the earth, where it
had laid buried since an age of archi-
tectural splendor. There is nothing
ornate about it in color or form. 1t
is simply forest of perfectly plain
columns standing close together and
filling in an immense circle - as
large as the rotunda above-the col
umns supporting network of inter-
lacing arches. The intersectine
arches make sharp angles, though the
swell of each orch is full and round.
The vaulted ceiling thus formed is low
enough, together with the short, thick
columns, to give the chamber the ap-
pearance of great size and to render it
grandly sombre. I believe it would
be impossible for any one to enter
this crypt, as it now is, its entire out
line and proportion disclosed, for the
first time without pausing at the en-
trance with sense of awe and won-

The opportunities for instruction in
building different kinds of roads af-
forded occasionally at fairs and insti-
tutes, and by sample sections that
have been laid under Government
auspices, have been very valuable,
and have aroused.the people somewhat
to realization of the Importance OF
regular instruction on this subject.
The Worcester (NTass.) Gazette sug-
gests that it would be well if the State
spent portion OF the enormous sum
appropriated annually for the highway
system in holding institutes Of instruc-
ton for highway supervisors, commits
sioners, selectmen, and all others who
have to do with road-building. II
thinks the trouble with the highway
builder usually is that he does moi
consider his business o profession,
and needs to learn from the experience
of others. "By establishing schoo
for instruction in road-building, the
State could do a greater service to The
public than by using the amount such
o school would cost in building mac
adam roads through the country"

GOOD ROADS NOTES.


A veteran Michigan farmer, writing
to the Grand Rapids Press, says:
Toll roads do not meet the wants of
the farmer; he wants free roads, not
toll roads, and wants all who use them
to help make them at cost that viii
not be burdensome on the farmer.
The toll roads are too costly for the
farmer. To get the products of the
farm to market he now pays enough
taxes in the way of tolls to pay for the
toll roads in five years at price they
could be built for now. Though the
tax is paid indirectly it is paid.
Farmers, as class, are opposed to
monopolies, aud yet they grant fran
chises to toll road companies which
are, on small scale, greater monopo-
lies than any of the railroad corpora
tions of the State.
''These toll roads are not only 3
public nuisance, but the owners of
them are the worst tax dodgers OF the
State, railroad corporations not ex-
cepted. The farmers in many parts
OF the county cannot get into the city
without being compelled to pay toll,
VI Sioo uLiNO u iOho tlolulCG OuO VI
their way. The farmers wife cannot
get into the city with small basket
of eggs, or few pounds of butter,
without paying toll almost as much
as she receives for what she has to
sell.
"The farmer is opposed to high
rates of interest, and if he wants 70
borrow money and the lender charged
him fifteen per cent. for the use of it,
he would decline the offer with indigna-
tion, and yet the same farmer votes
franchises to corporations which make
him pay, though indirectly, but none
the less surely, over twenty-five per
cent. on the money used to build toll
roads for his accommodation, if the
cost Of the roads was figured at what
it would cost to build them at the
present time. The railroads of the
State are required by law to pay taxes
on gross receipts, but the toll roads
only on net receipts. The toll-road
lobbyist, when at Lansing, beats the
railroad lobbyist two to one. You
truly say that il IS somewhat surpris-
ing that the farmers, in view of all the
facts, are not more generally in favor
OF system that will give better
roads"

The Baltimore American says:
"There has been during the last two
years, and there still continues, a
very marked movement from the West
to the South. Hundreds of indus
trious end thrifty men, after a hard
nnd unsuccessful struggle in the
West, have given it up and come to
the South, to find good homes and
splendid opportunities to make a liv-
ing for themselves and their families.
They are pleased with the change
they have made, and the success Of
the new Maryland colonies has far ex-
ceeded even the fondest hopes of their
projectors" "

When Gloves Were Only Tor Ornament

It is interesting to recall tho fact
that gloves as badge of elegant dress
seem to antedate the use of gloves as
q protection to the hands. The Ro-
mans, Greeks and Persians wore gloves
on state occasions. AS early as the
days of Charlemagne the glove indus
try of France was started by granting
to certain monks the right to manufac-
ture gloves from the skins OF deer
which were killed for venison.

An eminent physician states that
typhoid fever can be washed out of
the system by water. He gives his
patients what would amount to eight
or ten ounces an hour of sterilized
water. In cases OF cholera, where the
system secrets large amount of fluid,
enormous quantities of hot water are
of great benefit.
