ROAD DRAGGING EXPERIENCES
Pennsylvania Supervisor Tells of Value
of Using the Drag.

OF using the Ora9'
Supervisor Albert Croft of East
Hempfield township, Lancaster coun-
ty, Pa, writes about the drag as fol-
lows:
First of all, road dragging smooths
the roads. We have found that out
since we have been using the drag.
The second thing Is that road drag
ging makes the rOadbed frmer and
enables it to shed water quicker than
a road which has been undragged and
neglected. This is another of our ex-
periences. The third thing we have
shown has been that little dragging
done at the right time Is worth a lot
more than dragging done in the thick
dust. This latter dusty condition of
the road is not the time to work on
the road with drag, but any other
time will do. though the best time OF
all is right after rain. When we
first began to drag the township roads
the neighbors. many Of them. were
skepticul. So were we. But as things
wen, on the proof was demonstrated,
and now we are beginning to wonder
why we did not adopt 1t years ago.
THE principle of working up the
soft. sticky mud of a clay or loan
character means that it will grow hard
when left to the rays of the sun, and
il is this idea of working up soft
roadbed after every rain. Of smearing
over the entire road surface thin
layer of soft, pliabe mud which will
become dry and hard, that now real
ize is giving us our solid roadbeds
where the drag is working. Our super
visor board pays the farmers who drag
the roads by their farms 30 cents per
hour for their labor We are planning
to put more drags on our township
roads very soon. We have forty-four
miles of dirt roads in East Hemptied
township. our assessed valuation Is
$3,OOO,OOO. and our road tax Is = mills

BELL BOY SAVES GUEST
Eagle River Boy Forces Man
Into Shaft to Prevent His
Being Caught By Descend
ing Car.

Robert Olmstead, an Eagle
River boy who is now in the en-
plov of a hotel at San Diego, Cal,
as bell boy, is given the follow
ing write-up regarding the saw
ing Of a guests life:
The presence of mind of Bob
Olmstead, a bell boy employed
at the Hotel Brewster, prevented
serious consequences from an ele-
vator accident at that hosiery
yesterday morning, and may
have saved the life Of a guest,
M Fl. Ludlow, of San Francisco.
Ludlow, who was in a hurry
to go up stairs, flung open the
elevator doors on the first floor
yesterday morning and stepped
out into the shaft, not noticing
that it was empty. At the same
time, the elevator was rapidly
descending from the floor above,
the bottom of the cage being but
a few feet above the head of the
guest. Seeing that there was
not time to pull the guest back
from the opening, young Ohm
stead ran forward and pushed
him into the we'll, a drop Of
about six feet, at the same time
reaching out, grasping the cable,
and bringing the car to a full
stop, without further injuring
Ludlow
In stopping the ELEVATOR, the
bell BOYS arm was badly bruised
while Ludlow sustained a strain
ed ankle and a bruised leg from
his fall. The guest, however,
was thankful to escape with
such slight injuries. A physician
attended both victims of the
accident

JUST FISH STORIES
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES

A new departure in fish lore is
brought out for the edihcation
of Wisconsin sportsmen. namely
the catching of a 9rayl1ng, a
fresh water fish which is not
now, generally speaking, within
the memory of the present gener-
alton of fishermen. A grayhng
weight between one and one and
a half pounds was taken out OF
Muskrat creek last week by
lanes Evans of Rummeles.
When Mr.. Evans landed the fish
he was of the opinion that he
had captured an albino trout,
but the minute scales upon the
fish disapproved of that theory.
1t was shown to E. F. Harvard
who declared it Crawling, and
who later on described the fish
to the fish story man. He was
ace-high for the writer wouldn't
know CRAWLING if one came
ambling up the street placarded,
Dr. w J. Anderson OF Chicago,
who lust finished a fishing peri
Cd here couple weeks ago, had
sent August We'll book on fish
containing q description Of a
Crawling within its covers. The
description given by Mr.. Hay
ward of this fish TALES with the
one given in the book. 1t is a
graceful, trinity built and deli
cate-looking fish, colored more
like "mother-of-pearl' than any
fish known. The Crawling family
consists of three species: Michi-
igan, Montana, and Arctic, al
| though authority also states
that this fish is native of Scot
land. Undoubtedly the three
former species are termed Amer
lean grayling" The habits of
| this fish are identical with those
of a trout but is not classed
with that family. Mr. Evans
Crawling measured IA inches in
length.
Bass fishing in the Cisco chain
of lakes, upon which are situated
! the resorts of Mrs. Miller, {. A.
Bent and John Frank, is now IN
its prime, and numerous fine
catches are beingreported. Black
bass are now biting the lure

fish, the Oswege.

drove on the bridge and asked
for assistance. His leg being
crushed SO badly it was deemed
necessary to take him to the
hospital at Ashland, and, ac-
companied by Mrs. Langili and

evening on the limited.
1t is probable his foot will
have to be amputated.
4 The attitude of Conductor Dan
Duvall OF Amigo, who makes the
Sunday run on train No. 12l is
Without parallel. 1t is indeed
hard to believe that any man is
so case hardened that he would
wllfully allow a fellow man to
suffer, refusing to lend him as
sistance not knowing whether
he was dead or dying, not seem
ing to care If he was, but presum-
ing to assume that because HE
was not the direct cause Of the
disaster he was not to be held
liable, nor need others think for
moment they could presume to
interfere in his duties or doubt
that he was not the man of
authority.
Was Conductor Duvall under
the impression Sunday morning
that the officials of the North
western would make him walk
the carpet if he stopped strain
to succor a man in distress or
for permitting others to halt him
in his duties iii order chat they
might aid? If he was he under
estimates the milk Of hur an
kindness in the body of men who
controls the destinies of the {. &
NV.
One would be lead to believe
that this conductor is one who,
having his orders, follows them
out to the letter regardless ofthe
consequences. At least his re-
marks on his return trip Sunday
evening, when questioned as to
why he would not stop his train
knowing himself that fellow
being needed help, would tend to
draw that conclusion. He said
his orders were explicit and must
be obeved.
Let us see if he follows out
those orders. Sunday morning
August 1st he permitted two
passengers to ride on the engine
tender from Eagle River up the
line inquiries reveal the fact
that strict orders from the rail
road officials permit of no person
riding on an engine except a
pilot. engineer or fireman. The
parties who rode the engine ten
der were two Of the following
three: A. M. Villas, A. H. Villas,
Chicago; Dr. D. A. Johnston,
Colorado Springs. These three
men are now somewhere on the
Cisco chain of lakes on a canoe
trip. They expressed their canoe
Sunday morning to Cisco. The
express car being full the canoe
was put upon the tender and
with the conductors sanction
two of the men allowed to ride
with it as far as State Line where
it was reloaded in the smoker.
A couple of peices of rope would
have held it Just as securely and
the railway company would not
have been liable for the death
of two more men had they been
iolted off. 1t was not a case OF
succor to these two men when
! the rules of the road were
broken, and furthermore no
train man can show any rule
laid down to him whereby he is
to refuse to lend assistance IN
dire distress. such as in Mr..
Langill's case.

Sunday morning is unexplained.
