IN SCRAP OVER MAUSOLEUM
New York Woman objects to Having
U~ncongeniaI Company in Her
Last Resting Place.

New York.-Miss Matilda Carlson
intention of dying, but, according to
her oWn story told in supreme court,
when her time does come, she does not
want to await the Angel Gabriels
trumpet in uncongenial company.
For upwards of forty years Miss
Carlson told Justice Greenbaum, she
and her sister, Sophia Carlson, toiled
al domestic servants in various New
York households and saved their
money with a view toward providing
themselves with suitable last resting
places" With the accumulated saw
ings a mausoleum in Woodlawn ceme-
terry was built.
At the time the purchase was made
the Carlsons made provision for the
interment of their nephew, Nils Fegel-
gren, and his wife and daughter in
the same vault. The two families
were then N good terms. Recently
there was a falling out between the
relatives and now Miss Carlson is
seeking to have the names of the
F~egelgrens stricken from the a
soleum deed.
The plaintiff said she and her sis
ter paid $1,000 for the plot of ground
and the ~mausoleum, which she testi-
fed, was built with a window in it
and large enough for a person to walk
about inside. The body of Sophia
Carlson, who died a short time ago, is
now entombed there.

STILL AGAIN WORKS
HMountain Dew Plant has Been
Buried SO Years.
United States MarshaIs Hunt WiIda
OF Wayne County, w. Va, for
Giant Still.

Huntington, w. Va.-County anC
state prohibition officers and United
States marshals are searching the
wllds Of Wayne county, where q
gigantic copper still is again in oper.
alton, after being buried for half a
century. Fifty years ago a ''mountain
dew" was manufactured in this Sec
ton which was superior to legalized
brands. wash Farley's Best was a
famous brand Of whisky in this Sec
ton.
Making whisky was then a legal and
much appreciated occupation. The
authorities usually ran a small still in
addition to arresting a few murderers
and thieves. 1t was no disgrace then
to u a copper can and coil. The abil-
ity to turn out good whisky was an
accomplishment, and many a farmer
would employ a hired man if he knew
nothing else about him except that he
could make good whisky.
1t was back in 1859, 1860 and 1861.
that Uncle" John Jones made 100
per cent pure liquor. He lived on
Lick creek, nea the Lincoln Wayne
county line, and there turned out
whisky as pure as the mountain dew,
sweet as honey and with a kick like
a cranky fiivver. "Uncle" John had
a reputation for "souring''' his mash
just right, distilling just long enough
and turning out a run" of liquor that
was much In demand.
Then came federal legislation put
ting a high license on the business of
distilling, and "Uncle" John decided
to quit. He buried the still after
carefully drawing a map showing its
exact location. A few days ago de-
s%cendants of Uncle" John found this
map under the rafters of a barn.
During the last few days a new and
excellent brand of liquor has been ap-
pearing in these parts. Veterans de-
clared it was like "Uncle' Johns.
Then the secret leaked out.
The old still had been unearthed,
and with a little practice the finder
able to distill a brand just like
the famous Uncle" John brand. 1t
is known the still is located in the
Lick creek region, but the officers
have as yet been unable to find it. 1t
said to be the largest, finest and
most complete whisky making plant in
West Virginia. The whisky is being
put out in great quantities through
Wayne and Lincoln counties.

These taxes are to be collected

other words, it is the intention of
the law that this tax must be
borne by the consumer and that
the stamp must be affixed by the
retailer at the time the sale is
made and the price charged for
the preparation must not include
the stamp, but the consumer must
pay for the stamp as required by
the law. The law specifically
provides that the price of the

tax in any amount exceeding the

How Piesidine Elder hogard Got
His Start.

Not many people who know
our popular Presiding Elder
Rev. W. F. Hogard know that
he began his career as country
editor, in the hills of Clinton
He started a paper at Albany
the county seat of Clinton. He
bought him country Campbell
press, at that time a fine press.
He had never seen one, but he
set up that press, no little job
for experienced machinist and
had it running in less than a
week. He did not know the
boxes in type case and of course
had never set a line of type, but
ne learned and not only wrote
the matter for his paper but
put it in print. While he was
publishing his country weekly
he printed 200 page book and
bound it handsomely. It was there
in print shop he learned his
patience and contracted the
habit of doing things, which
enabled him to put over the
top the centenary drive in the
Elizabethtown District. He
said he never was a printers
devil but he felt like one many

The School Book Decision

When attorneys in the State
Text Book case represented to
Judge Robert L Stout that
twenty.six firms would be f.
nancially eff ected by reopening
the school book question, the
Judge replied that he Was very
sorry, but that the school chill
dren must also be considered. 1t
is said that the contracts so
carelessly tossed over to certain
firms will amount to $4,000, 900
in five years. This did not awe
Judge Stout, because he realized
that the six millions would come
out of the pockets of the people
of Kentucky, and that their
right to be considered was above
every other right. The Judge
looked past the business men
with fingers already closing over
the big money and saw the
thousands and thousands of
little school children of Kentucky
saw poor and ambitious boys
struggling, with every con-
ceivable drawback, to get an
education-and he considered
their interest first! God bless
him!
Readers of the Sun, take my
advice and give your fullest at
tention to every phase of this
matter which may be brought
out that you may ascertain with
how much thought, and how
much anxiety for the young
boys and girls of Kentucky
the chief treasures of our
Commonwealth-this work of
book selecting has been done!
All who have charge of any
phase of the education of the
little children of Kentucky
whether school teachers, super.
intendents, or any one else,
have committed to them the
most priceless trust which the
State of Kentucky can give.
But it is up to you, gentle
reader and to me, to see how
that is executed. And II we
stand for even careless or hasty
or perfunctory execution Of
such duties, it were better, as
He said, that a milestone were
hanged about our necks and
that we were drowned in the

Three types of road, two OF which
are under consideration for Wayne
county's road program embracing the
building of thirty miles of hard-sur-
faced main market highways, and the
third of which is similar to the btu
minous macadam that has been so
exploited here, are the subjects of
several tables and analyses OF main
tenance costs in the Ohio State High
way Commissions 1916 and 1917 re-
ports.
The third type is bituminous con-
crete, a much sturdier road and less
liable to go to pieces than the btu
minous macadam. "Bituminous ma
cadam is not comparable to brick or
concrete" says Chief Engineer H. K.
Bishop OF the new Indiana State High
way Commission. 'Bituminous con-
crete is more comparable to brick and

Bltumlnous Macadam Eliminated
Although bituminous macadam has
practically been eliminated from the
possibilities for Wayne county roads
because of the vigorous protests
against its use by the petitioners for
the Hagerstown road before the COM
missioners last Monday, the figures
on the maintenance of bituminous
concrete are interesting. as moreover,
cur own chief state engineer considers
it a sturdier type of road than btu
minous macadam.
In 1916 the total bituminous con-
crete road given in the report of the
commission is slightly under q mile.
and there was no maintenance report
made.
During the next year. however. the
total mileage of this type of road is
given at 26.77 miles. 1t is evident
that almost twenty-six miles of 1t we're
built between the two years. and that
this twenty-six miles were at the most
only a year old. Under these condi-
tions any road should show prac.
tically negligible cost of maintenance
and repair Yet what do these new
bituminous concrete roads, less than
q year old. show?
Costs s15e Per Mile
The total cost of maintenance OF
the twenty-six miles Is $4,157, or an
average of $156 per mile for mainten
ance alone. OF this sum, ST. was
spent on re-surfacing. The commits
sion reports also that the bituminous
concrete pavement is especially sus
ceptible to being plucked out by the
wheels of passing vehicles and the
hoofs Of horses.
Yet the new type of pavement which
must withstand the strain and shove
of the wheels of hundreds of heavy
trucks and Of high-powered fast-driv
ing automobiles, must be especial.
strong of surface and able to bea1
these strains without ruin.
1t is these very stresses to which
bituminous concrete and bituminou:
macadam are most susceptible. There
fore it is beyond doubt that this tire
mendous first-year cost of mainten
ance would soon be doubled and trip
led, and would go on rising until !
became in a very few years, cheaper t
rebuild than TO patch up the surfac
again. Added to the first cost o
$50 1000 a mile or more, it would be
very expensive mistake for the count
to put in bituminous macadam or BIZ
luminous concrete surfaces on maj
ket highway, and then pay heavy an
constantly increasing costs for mair
tenance.
The concrete roads of Ohio on whic,
maintenance reports were made, mes
surfing in 1919 203 miles, cost an aver
age OF $51 for surface work and $22
