Between cities of large popu-

business force men to hasten to

goods and merchandise, the rail
road is no doubt destined to fill

ever be employed for ordinary

John |. Blair in his earlier days
owned a western railroad. along
the route of which he established
a series of lunchrCOms, at which
the employees were to be charged
fifty cents and all passengers
seventy five cents. Mr.. Blair
once dined at one of these places,
and, concluding his meal, laid
down a half dollar. "Hold on.'

chickens in coops and the passen-
ger not only found them ON the
table but had a chance to walk off
with one if he reached his landing
at night. Fortunately for the
champions of the turnpike they
had the concluding speech and
their last orator proved himself
worthy of the mighty task before
him. With "his eyes in a fine
frenzy rolling" and his two rows
of ivory shining like polished
steel muskrat trap, he jumped to
his feet and delivered this short
but irresistible speech: "Ef you
trabbel by dc turnpike and de
coach brakes down, dar you is;
but eff you trabbel by de ribber
and de boat splodes up, whar is
you?" Judges, spectators, and
even champions of the river, each
agreed that in case of accident he
would rather his friends should
be able to say "dar he is" than to
have them running wildly up and
down the river asking "whar is
he?" So the turnpike won by Il
unanimous vote.

ought to have been. The travel
ers said they arrived at "Den-
Miss, near the river, on the old
road. The Crossing farm was
large one-700 or 800 acres-and
extended from Il short distance
above the turnpike crossing to Il
considerable distance below the
old road crossing, and the old
house, at the old crossing, was one
or two hundred yards west of the
river. Havingalways understood
that DenniSon built and kept the
tavern at the turnpike crossing
and owned the whole tract ofland,
| conjectured that he had kept
tavern at the old crossing and that
this was the place meant by the
Philadelphia travellers when they
had arrived at "Dennis s.. The
old house was Il wooden structure
of good size for its time. 1t was

left open, and Mr.. Megraw's
sheep used to go in it to rest in
the shade or escape the rain.
During a violent storm lightning
struck down the chimney and kill

which Mr.. Megraw, to prevent
future mishaps of the kind, de

Bedford to Philadelphia at the
time of the "Whiskey Insurrec-
ton" in 1894.
