BugabOOS.

Judging from reports Laporte is
the haunt, stamping ground or at
least a place for the nocturnal visit
of a certain spook, phantom or hui
man prowler known as the "woman
in black. The western part of the
village seems to be the only place
in which this mysterious ching
stalks on dark nights. 1t has been
seen by various persons at various
times and observers are emphatic in
in their assertions that they really
saw it, and deny that it is an i'm
aginary being brought before their
eyes by over indulgence of red-eye.
1t is said to appear as a woman
dressed in sort of shroud, black
as the night in which it appears.
The dress or drapery unlike that OF
the statues at Harrisburg, hangs
from the head to a little below the
knees, like a long cape. This may
be the style in spookdom. 1t
would also be quite handy to have
it thus in case the spook wished to
make a hasty exit from the gaze of
the startled spectator. The black
lady is of medium heighth and does
no harm so far as is known; don't
aven make a noise like Laporte
wind mill on a windy night, but
just appears and disappears like
any orderly spook would do. This
describes it as well as is possible
with the information submitted
Any further enlightenment upon
the subject will be appreciated and
should be addressed to the mystery
editor of this paper.

Railroad to Be Sold.

These be parlous times for rail-
roads. There is the little Eagles
Mere Railroad, running from Sones-
town to Eagles Mere, in Sullivan
county, that is to be sold at Sheriff
sale for non-payment of taxes
amounting to nearly $4,000, The
road is seven miles long and has a
grade of nearly two hundred feet
to the mile. 1t is 50 crooked that
they can't have steps on the side of
the ears, because the COW catcher
on the locomotive would scrape
them off when they went around
the curves. The road is a narrow
gauge one, and the cars are the
size of an old fashioned Demo-
crat wagon, while the locomotives
are of the cabbage cutter" order,
with all the cogs and whirligigs i'm
mediately under the boiler. They
charge $1.O0 per passenger for a
trip over the road, and so cents adj
ditional if he has suit case.
When it SHOWS in the fall the rail-
road is shut down until fine weather
the next spring. And still they
can't pay expenses. Canton Senti-

Advocates Bond Issue.
The Philadelphia Inquirer in

The Philadelphia Inquirer in its
issue of January 18th. editorially
says:-There is just one way to
get improved roads and that is to
build them. To do so requires
money. How are we going to OBJ
tain the money? The answer is
simple-borrow it. The State is
without debt, Why shouldn't it
borrow? We are glad to see that
the Governor advocates the issue of
bonds for this purpose. But the
issue cannot be made without a
constitutional amendment. Such
an amendment would have to be
adopted not only by the existing
Legislature but by the succeeding
one two years from now. Then it
would have to be submitted to the
vote of the people in the November
election of 1913. Thus there is
time in which to devise and adopt
to quote the words of the Governor,
"a general plan of Statewide road
Improvement" There must be a
comprehensive scheme, dealing fair
ly with all sections, he contends.
He is against the piecemeal build
ing. He believes that the proper
way to go at it is to open up good
roads connecting the county seats
as starter. But there has got to
be comprehensive scheme, other
wise he will not authorize the
spending of money. This is all
very, very sensible.

Great Earth Slide Into Panama Canal.
Another great earth slide a mile
long has started to move in the Guile
bra cut in the Panama canal.
The slide has already completely
covered the thirty-five-foot bank OF the
canal opposite the towpath with $780,
900 cubic yards of material.
The slide began, according to the
canal record, Jan. IS, on the west
bank of the canal, opposite the Guile
bra hotel.
Up to Jan 25 the earth had not en-
croached on the railroad tracks in the
lower part of the cut to any extent,
and the regular operations there were
not interfered with. Some hasty
shifting of frame houses became ne
cessary to save them from the earth
slide.
