Emmitsburg Pike Being Re
paired.

The Good Roads Commission now
has the crushing plant on the Sunday
Farm, along the Emmitsburg Pike in
operation, and it is expected that within
few weeks the plant will be running to
its full capacity. which is 100 tons crushed
stone daily.
Leo T. Downey, of this city, who is
in charge of the work being done in this
section, stated that the purpose of the
commission is to repair the Emmiisburg
Pike this fall, taking the worst places
One small bridge has been erected
near Thurmont, and another iron bridge
will take the place of wooden one on
the other side Of Thurmont. The iron
bridge near Lewistown is also to be
repaired.
Word has been received by Mr..
Downey that a steam roller will probably
be sent here for use on the Emmitsburg
Pike. In case this is done all of the
repair work will be rolled as it is put
down. and this will cause teams to pass
over the roads as soon as possible.
In the spring the work will be re-
sumed and the II miles Of pike placed
in first class condition.

only through ceaseless vigilance and
the hardest kind OF work had Portage,
on the Wisconsin river, city of g.
900 people. been saved from the fate
of Black River Falls. 1t is felt that
the danger there is over unless there
should be further rains higher up on
the Wisconsin.
The river at Portage, which reached
q stage Of thirteen feet and kept great
crews of men busy all night fighting
to save the levee, the destruction of
which would have meant the loss of
many thousands of dollars worth of
property. is reported at the weather
bureau here to be falling slightly.
Commissioner Bellinghausen of the
state levee commission warned the
city officers and public that IL the
levees broke wall of water twelve
feet high would be driven through

confidently that they are in position

Their Tombstone

From the New York Press
 There is a certain natural pride felt, after success has come, in wearing me epthet given in contempt by those who prophesied failure. InstanceN are not un- common of triumphant sects and parties, and even nations, retaining the very title first given them by their enemies. case in point Is Tombstone, Ariz. How did It come to have such name? It was not borrowed or stolen from any other place on the globe, nor even suggested by any novel or romance.
 The story is that two young men, broth CTS, when about to start from Tucson on prospecting tour into the Dragon mountains. Sonora, or somewhere else, were advised to give up the undertaking for if they perished they would find "tombstones" instead. The boys bravely bade goodby to their friends. though em- rhatically warned that they never would return alive. The prospectors set off. and following the 'blind trail' came to the plain and made their camp. On eXamlna- tion they found large ledge of ore crop ping out several feet, all marked and rich with the precious metal. I've have found our tombstone!' they exclaimed. and no ether name would do to designate the camp.
 The town has kept the name which, if not poetical, Is certainly original. A val uable tombstone too. it must be con- fessed. for the Schieffellm brothers sold their interest Il the mine and mill late in the sos for something like million dol lars
