Formerly all shingles made in the

Those used in Maine, New Hamp-

shingles were used. In the shlngle

Of the block. This made a rough sur
face on the shingles, which was said
to hold the water and made them rot
quickly. In 1865 there began to come
into use machines made In Gardiner
and Bangor Me-, which cut the block
on the side instead of the end. The
shingles sawed in this way had a sur
face almost as smooth as If shaved.

These machines caused revolution in

that Angleifelected would gointo the

The Quay or anti Quay question
did not enter into the contest here.
All good Republicans worked and
voted for the straight ticket and in
one township only does it appear
that there was disaffection. There
the ticket for representative was
cut and while the total result was
not changed it merely shows the
ingratitude of a man after being
kept in office by the party for nine
years.

The Right of Way Rule.

The rule most often applied in cities and
worked out on equitable principles imposes
on the city the expenses involved outside

very heavy, sometimes very light, as the
circumstances control in the particular
cases. OF the first class Philadelphia fur
nishes a striking instance. In the abolish
ment of grade crossings along the line Of
the Philadelphia and Trenton railroad as
authorized by ordinance approved March %
1887. the railroad company at its own ex-
pense changed the elevation Of its railroad
and constructed all the bridges and other
