Upper Falls, 18th District.-Oh mercy
Messrs Editors, what bad roads! VIII Jupiter
Puvius never leave the skies If travelling and
freighting is as it is here over the entire county,
what a universal wall must be going up Ut
course nobody is responsible (but Providence) and
each returning breakup of winter will bring the
same roads until-yes, until we send delegates
to the Legislature who will rise above the exigen-
cies of party and distribution of office. Is any
body willing to admit the wealthiest county in
the State is not able to make and preserve better
roads than we have now; that our road sys-
tenn is perfect, or that the money now levied and
expended is put on where and in manner to do
the most good.
The management of the Franknville factory
has been storing up cotton for some time past in
anticipation of the start which occurred this week.
The cotton was hauled from Magnolia and the
team, during the latter part of last week, had to
make circuit for q mile to deliver its load.
Wheelwrights have been doing good business
in repairing axles and single-trees broken in the
various struggles to reach something like terra
f,ma from the almost bottomless pits that dot all
our roads at quickly recurring intervals. Mention
roads to WAGNER and the air grows blue. If
all the maIedctons uttered this and preceding
weeks collected and piled upon our irritable,
excitable supervisor, Ossa upon Pelion would be
nothing to it, and he'd be more than in his usual
condition-mad.
It is rumored here that an effort is being
made to replace our Justice of the Peace with
some other. Careful inquiry ilicits the fact that
such a change is not desired and has not been So
licted from this quarter. Also that Squire
Schultz is considered as being eminently we'll
qualified for the position, and that the location of
his office is convenient for all. The matter is be-
ing engineered by those who do not live in the
neighborhood, and it is not thought much honor
can accrue to the parties by removing an honest
off m "a wis of
the local constituency. 1t may be added that no
one was removed to make room for Mr.. Schultz.
He was appointed to fill long-standing vacancy.

Perry Hall, 18th District.-Travel with

Perry Hall, 18th District with
| loaded teams has been next to an impossibiity
the past week in this section, and it is doubt
the case throughout the county. The old, ever
recurring cry of year after year is heard on all
sides, "the bottoms are out of the roads, and this
in spite of the expenditure of eighty-odd $751;
2OO) thousand dollars per annum. Eighty-one
thousand and odd dollars virtually thrown away,
| for shoveling earth and road washings amount to
that and nothing more far permanency is
concerned, or indeed, road making, it makes them
little smoother in summer and fall, but it gives
more dust during those seasons and more mud
| winter and spring. All this money thrown away
| and good stone going ga begging" for somebody
to break and utilize it. The road-sides and fields
over the entire country, with few exceptions, are
| lined with them. Even yards upon yards of the
usually good gravel roads Of our friend and neigh
Dor, Snyder, quake and shiver upon the approach
of heavy teams, showing they are not to be de-
| pended upon at times.
The legislator or county official who devises
and successfully operates plan by which our
principal roads will be covered with hard "detal'
instead of freshly loosened earth, will hand his
name down to posterity as great public bene-
factor and prove his possession ofcapacity beyond
the ordinary run of such incumbents, who are
usually satisfied to move along in old ruts in
more ways than one, and content with the mere
routine of office work and the monthly check of
the treasure.
Petitions are in circulation to divide the dis
trict into four precincts The one presented here
to-day was numerously signed and the division
asked for would seem to be a convenience demand
ed, as numbers of our people have now to travel
seven and eight miles to vote, the extreme end of
the district being full ten miles by road from the
polls in the first precinct. Where else in the
county is this the case Politicians-and what a
sad lot the district has-do not seem to favor the
proposed change, and argue the increased ex-
pense as if they were not paying for the increas-
ed facilities other districts have. Politicians do
not want any change that will in any way have
tendency to emancipate the voters from their
rule, and they think that this scattering of the
vote will release some whom they have hitherto
held under their thumbs.
The 18th district has the largest landed area in
the county, as the petition says, and is suscepti-
BILE of easy division into four nearly equal parts,
larger than any of those precincts of adjoining
districts. The division will come sooner or later
and the one who accomplshes it will receive the
thanks of an accommodated people. We here
have thckly settled country, ever increasing in
numbers, and with polling place any where from
the Camp Chapel road to Perry Hall, our entire
voting population would turn out, which has not
been the case heretofore. SILVER SPRING.

CHICAGO, Jan. 2l.-Au unlooked-foi

which has upset all calculations, and may
have a marked influence in the final dispo-
sition OF thiIperplexng matter In May the
proprietor OF the Palmer House refused to
renew the lease Of the hotel ticket office
held by Joseph Couthoui, upon whom the
Chicago railroads We're united as the proper
man for the position. In his stead George
Frank was installed. Mr. Frank was
inexperienced aud all but four withdrew
their tickets, establishing Couthoui at No.
81 Monroe street In union Office. Franks
lease at tue Pa mer house will expire May

Chicago Passenger Agents Association, a
majority of the roads requested Mr.. Palmer
TO reinstate Mr.. Couthoui. Mr.. Palmer re.
pied that he would under no circumstan-
ces rent the Office to the former agent,
and his decision WAS accepted as final.
The eastern roads, with the exception
OF two, thereupon voted to abolish all
outside Offices, and the hotel proprletors
were presented with the unpleasant pros

NEW YORK, Jan. 2l.-A sad case Of in
sanity, caused by unrequitted love, was
brought before Justice Welde at Essex
Market. Olga Sladen, pretty naxen-
haired girl. Is years old. stood before the
Magistrate, presenting pitiful sight. Her
blonde hair hung down upon her shoulders
almost hiding he: face, while her blue eyes
sparkled with an unusual lustre. She
seemed unconscious OF what was going on
about her, aud she would raise her head
aud cry out: 'Oh, Henry, forgive you
for your falscness. | forgive this cruel
world also Mrs. Scbaben. OF No. 1919
Eldridge street, with whom Olga lived. told
the Justice the story OF the poor girls mis-.
fortune. she said Olga came to this cOun-
try about TWO years ago and earned her
living as goyeruess and chi drens' com
panion. She had no friands or relatives,
but was apparently happy and light
hearted. In the early part OF the past year
she met German youth who
PROFEssED GREAT LOVE
for her. The two spent their leisure time
together, and Oiga's great delight was to
refer to the near approach OF her wedding
day. For some reason or OF her the Young
lovers ardent affection wsned, and about
month before Christmas last he ceased TO
visit her, but sent letter, saying, that the
past had been but the effusion OF silly
youth. The letter caused profound
change in the girl. She became morose.
and shortly after confessed to Mrs. Schabrr
that she had been betrayed and WAS about

described as touching in the extreme, and
II WAS with difficulty that she could be in.

Her days after this were spent In cal ling

child. At first she was quite docile, and
Mrs. Schaber was 10th to have her put in.

cover, but treatment proved futile and It
was deemed advisable to have her sent to
the Island. Justice Welde was much az
fected by the story and committed her to
the care Of the Commissioners Of Charities

threw her arms about the neck Of the Of.
