Because of it siui plicity, Its eflieieury ami it rhrap neas, both in roust ruetiou and op eratiou, it in destined to come more and wore into geucrul uws. With the drag properly built and it use well understood, the maintenance of earth roads becotus a simple and inexpensive matter. At the preeent time there are ap proximately 2,000.000 inih-s ot earth roads in the Cuitcd Slates. Home of the niowt important of these roads will eveutualiy le iniprovel with stone, gravel ami other mate rials. Many others which are cqu ally important cannot lie mi im proved on account of lack of funds or suitable materials, while ft ill others will not rviiire such treat ment because of the light trallic to which they are subjected. For these reasons the majority of our roads must be maintained Hi earth roads for many years to come. This mtiHt lie done by inexpensive methods, and the split-log drag will lie a powerful aid if economy is the criterion demanded. la the construction of this itu plement, rare should be taken to make it so light that one man ran lift it with ease, a light drag re npouding more readily to various methods of hitching than a heavy one, as well as to the shifting of the position of the operator. The liest material for a split-log drag is a dry, red redar log, though led elm and walnut are excellent, and box elder, soft maple, or even wil low are superior to oak, hickory or ash. The log should be between 7 and 10 feet long and from 10 to 1'.' inches iu diameter at the butt end. It should lie split carefully as near the center as possible, and the heaviest and best slab chosen fur the front, lu the front slab, 4 in ches from the end which is to drag in the middle of the road, Isire a a inch hole which is to receive a cross stake. At a distance of 2'.' inches from the other end of the front slab, locate the renter for another crocs stake. The hole for the middle stake will lie on a line connecting and half way between the two. Then place the back slab in position aud from the end which is to drag in the middle of the road measure 20 iucbes fur the renter of one cross stake, and ti inches from the other end locate the center of hand wheel track or rut the lull length of the imrtiou to lie dragged, and made to return iu the same manner over the other half of the roadway. Such tieatmeut will move the earth towards the center of the roadway aud raise it gradu ally above the surrounding level. the Iwst results have beru ob tained by dragging roads ouce each way after each heavy rain. In tome rases, however, one dragging every three or four weeks has been found sufficient to keep a road in good condition. When the soil is moist but not sticky the drag does its best work. V the soil in a Held will bake if ploughed wet. so the road w ill bake if the drag is used on it when it is wet. If the roadway is full of holes or badly rutted, the drag should be used once when the ground is soil and slushy. This is pai ticittarly applicable liefore a cold spell in winter, wheu it is possible to so prepare the surface that it will freeze smooth. Not infrequently conditions are met which may lie overcome by a slight change in Urn manner of hitching. Shortening the chain tends to lift the front slab and make the rutting slight, while a longer hitch causes the front slab to si uk more deeply into the earth and act oil the principle of a plow. If a furrow of earth is to be moved, the doubletree should be Attached close to the ditch end of the drag, and the driver should stand with our foot on the extreme forward end of the front slab. Conditions are so varied in dif ferent localities, however, that it is unite impossible to lay down spe cilie rules. Certain sections ot a roadway will require more atten tion than others, liecause of steep grades, wet weather springs, soil conditions, exposure to sun and wind, washes, etc. There is one condition, however, in which spe rial attention should lie given. Clay roads under persistent drag ging frequently become too high in the renter. This may lie correct ed by dragging the earth towards the center of the road twice, aud away from it once. There is no question as to the economy of this road making im plement, either lu li rat cost or in operation. In six counties iu Kan sas iu KKMi the cost of maintaining ordinary earth roads, without the aid of the split-log drag, averaged 12.50 a mile. These figure were furnished by Trof. W. C. Hoad of the University of Kansas, who se cured them from official records of the counties. Some figures furnished by F. P. the opposite stake. The hole for Sanlsirn and U. II. Aishtou, gen the center stake should lie located Ural manager of the Chicago aud half wav lictween the two. All these holes should lie carefully bored perpeudieulur or at right angles to the face of the split log. If these directions are followed it will be found that when the holes of the front and bark slabs are brought opposite each other, one end of the back slab will be 1 ti in rbea nearer the center of the road way than the front one. That gives what is knowu as "set back." The stakes, which are 30 inches long, will bold the slabs this distance apart When the stakes have lieeu firmly wedged into their wickets, a brace about 2 inches thick and 4 inches wide may be placed diagon Northwestern railroad, have re vealed tho wonders of this simple device. Mr. Sanborn said: "The least expense per mile per annum for split log dragging was 1.50, the greatest a little over ii, and tho average expense per mile for 5$ miles a little over :). I have lived along this road all my life and never in 40 years have 1 seen it freer from mud and dust, despite the fact that during the season we have experienced the extremes of weather conditions." The testimony of Mr. Aishton is equally strong.

The defense was able, but introduced no evidence, aud the ehxiueut, moving speech of Mr. Charles U. Harris in their defense, presenting their case with surpris ing cleverness and force, only aroused a deep sympathy for the men aud created the wish that they might be inuorent There was a highly sensatloual development iu the trial yesterday. John T. Mi-Carthy, a special officer of Itoston, Mass., was a witness for the government, and it cropped out about bis criminal record, being an escied convict from the North Caroliua penitentiary, where he is still wanted, having been pardoned by the President of the United States and by the Governor of the State of Vermont A few years ago he was a safe blower robber, aud his testimony was that of expert criminal. He disclosed a part of his criminal record and his testi mony was most surprising. He was convicted at Halifax, X. C, in 1!H1 of burglary and sentenced to 10 years in the peuiientiary, from which be escaped after serving one year. He was granted immunity from arrest while in North Carolina by Governor Glenn, in considera tion of reformation, suliaequeut con duct, and services rendered. The governnmeiit secured this immuni ty for McCarthy In order tuat lie might testify in this yeggmen's case, lint notwithstanding tueuov ernor's order the State's prison au thorities Wednesday had McCar thy arrested. The Governor was notified at once. He was Incensed at the action aud called to the 'phone one of the prison authori ties. A brief colloquy occurred over the wire, In which the Gover nor ordered McCarthy released an 1 threatened the penitentiary officer with arrest if he interfered with the executive order. McCarthy was Immediately set at liberty. James C. Wilson of I'clzer, 8. C, father of Thomas E. Wilson, alias Charlie Williams, alias "I'el.er Ivddio," was a witness yesterday for the government, identifying his son, the only one of twelve chil dren to go wrong. Tears iioweti down bis bronzed face and the touching scene struck the heart of uiany. Afler the verdict was an nounced and the judgment given, the old gentleman, resting his head upon the stub of his right arm, wept like a child, while his son and Leouard puffed away at the cigarettes. The gray headed fath er told the boy goodbye kindly, and said he would never see him again, but the boy showed no sym pathy or affection. The only emo tion he showed was one of fear, when he turned ghastly white, as tho jury left the court room; but when the verdict was announced Williams and Leonard laughed; Scanlan, the auburn bearded, most daring looking member of the quin tette, and Shaw aud Hallman up- iieared serious enough.

All the party, except the gen tlemen mentioned ubove, alter de riding to cross the river, watted to the other shore aud proceeded w itn their pastime. Messrs. Davis and Aldrige were wading in the water some distance from the bank, and Messrs. Cagle and Tyson were sitting on the bank of the stream on the Anson side. Suddenly Mr. lavis, who could not swim, lost his nerve and start ed to return to the bank, but just as he did so his feet were washed from under him, the water lieing very swift at this poiut. He strug gled to regain his feet, but was not able to do so, and, just as ho was being washed down into the deep water a few feet liclow the shoals Mr. Aldrige went to his assistance. As soou as Mr. Aldrige got in reach the drowning man sei.ed him, and if it had not lieeu for the timely assistance of Mr. Cagle, he too would have met a watery grave, as ho was sinking the third time alien Mr. Cagle reached him aud caught him by the hair and swam to the bank with him. Tho lsidy of Mr. Davis was found by a numerous searching party aliout H o'clock Sunday morning, and the remains were buried at Concord church Sunday afternoon, Rev. M. T. Steele conducting the exercises. Mr. Davis was almuMS years of age and is survived by a wife and eight childreii. He was an industrious man and was well thought of by bis neighbors. At the point where the accident occurred no less than seven persons have lieeu drowned since the war. The water runs very swiftly as it Hows over the shoal, and the dan ger to persons who risk themselves iu it is iu having their feet washed from under them. It is said by those familiar with (he place that if this happens the unfortunate one is almost sure to lie washed down a few yards into deep water, where there is a suck hole that only the strongest of swimmers ran success fully cope with. The first man of whom there is any record of having Ih'CH drowned at this shoal was named I'ruice, who met his death there over 100 years ago. 11 is remains were mined nearby, 111 an Indian graveyard, at the foot of a walnut tree. This tree, which was known in the neighborhood as the rnnce walnut tree, grew to a great size ami was cut and sold for lumber a few years ag- Life 5entence for Jlurderer.

She met him in the cemetery and it is be lieved he rriminally assaulted her and then shot her. He claimed she shot herself with his pistol. The first trial resulted in a mistrial. Hale is of a family of murderers. His brother Roy is iu the en for twenty years for murder, having killed a brother of Lilly Davis; another brother is under indict ment and a brother ln law is serv ing 20 years for highway robliery in the North Carolina prison.
