The stones thrown into heaps by the roadside are pur chased by the district road repairing commission. Poor men, who other wise would have to be supported by the almshouses, are hired to break the stones, and then are trained to the work of repairing the roadbed. The money to pay the men is made by auctioning off to the highest bidder the crop from fruit trees that wore planted on both sides of the highwry when it was built, and which are nourished well by the manure that falls along the road and Is pushed at intervals by a road tender upon their roots.

The most terrible thing about the catastrophe Is the slowness of the movement Cracks appear on . the fares of the houses, and slowly widen before the eyes of the terrified Ipectators, while the crash of trees slowly torn up by the roots, and the grinding of rocks sound along tne hillside. Every day the peasants fear to see the graveyard of Cornlglio torn open. Terror reigns throughout tbf whole vallc-y- o ever-widenin- g . Statesmen Exchange Courtesies.

The reception of the Woman's Relief Corps, Ladies of the O. A. R. and of t'ae Womans Auxiliary Committee have been settled upon as to place. There was very strong talk of holding these receptions in the rotunda of the capitol, and all arrangements had been made to put a measure through congress for that purpose. While the historic rotunda Is large enough, the provisions for ingress and egress are very jmcir, and remembering the trouble on this ten years ago. Mrs. Ellen Spoil-e- r Mussey, chairman of the committee. felt that she would like to have even roomier quarters for these great events if possible. The result is that the receptions will all be held in Convention hall. This is to be magnificently decorated for the various fund ions of the week. It is to begin by holding a great religious and patriotic sorviee on Sunday, Oet. 5. T.tere is a splendid chorus of 5u0 mixed voices now in training for the musical features of this service. It is thought that a great religious concert, with eminent Foioists, will lie the feature or Sunday afternoon. On Monday afternoon a mass meeting will lie held. At this meeting a formal welcome will lie tendered by the citizens' aud executive committee to the Grand Army ir the Republic, the Woman's Relief Corps. I.adies of the G. A.

In the evening though this data may lie changed to J ednesday even-ing, to suit the pli&Ture of prominent people who desire to be present will be hold the three great womans receptions. The rational president of the Ladies of the G. A. R., Mrs. Emma Wall, will hold her reception from 7 to 8 oclock, and will be assisted by her staff and all past national officers who are In the city. From 8 to o'rlock the national of the Womans Relief president Corps, Mrs. Oalista Robinson Jones, assisted by her whole staff and such pait rational offi.x;rg as are in the city, will receive the commander-in-eliie- f art! his staff and all visiting veterans and ladles. At 0 oclock Mrs. Ulysses S. Grant, chairman of the reception committee, assisted by Mrs. Ellen Spencer Mus- chairman of the womans auxili- ary committee, and all the national officers of all the woman's orders, and the members of the executive committee, will take their places in line for the grand reception. It Is thought tiat this will be the most gorgeous affair that lias ever been given at a rational encampment.
