al High Compliment.

We clip the following from the
Washington Post, which is de-
serving compliment to our young
friend Mr.. j. Fred Holloway, of
this city. The play "Fedora,"
which has been presented to the
American people by the distin-
guished French tragedienue, Sarah
Bernhardt and also by the late
Fannie Davenport, is at the Lafay-
cite Theatre in Washington, ID. O.,
this week, and is presented by the
Bellows Stock Company:
LILLIAN Lawrence makes Fedora
very beautiful and contradictory

idea of the author. White Whit.

trench at the upper side to carry
the water along the side of the
road but instead let it follow the
rut made by the wagon wheels to
the foot of the hill.
Would not be better. and take
but little more time to crush the
tone and fill these holes. than to
cast them over the bank, and then
fill the holes with rubbish?
The stones will make a solid and
permanent road.
If we were to lecture on this
subject, our first would be drain
age, and second, crush up the rock
on the roads.
In filing the holes with stone,
it is not necessary to fill them too
high. so as to make them rough
and uneven; by being too high
they cause the wheels to cut a hole
on either side.
Yours, for better roads,

Whole Family Murdered.

Welch, Feb. 27.-Last night it
was discovered that five of six
members of the Earl family, liv-
ing about 3 miles from here, had
been murdered and that the head
of the household had disappeared.
No search has yet been made for
his body, although it is generally
believed he has been killed. His
vile had her face mashed with
some blunt instrument. One of
her sons had been shot through
the head and the throats of three
others had been cut.
None of the family had been
seen since Thursday last, and it
is thought that they were killed on
that night. There is no clue to
the perpetrator of the deed. The
Earls originally came from Iowa
