THE subject Of road making has become one
Of very general interest in every part Of the
United states. Pennsylvania, if the state
ment of the Philadelphia Times DO accurate
is like Virginia in one respect-tbat Is in the
lack OF practical knowledge rs to how roads
should be made. and unlike Virginia il an
other respect. that is, in having an abund-
ance of money to carry out any feasible plan
which might be proposed for putting the
roads Of the Commonwealth in good order.
According TO the Times "a great deal Of
money is raised by taxation and spent every
year in Pennsylvania for the improvement Of
country roads. the most Of which Is
simply wasted. The roads are repaired at the
worst season Of the year with the worst
material-clay out of the ditch at tho road
side-aDd this farce is repeated year after
year. with results that need not 10 men

mile of good road is spread over ten miles TO
make the ten miles highway of pulverized

quagmire the rest OF the time.

The new structure which Is now approaching

attention from those who pass along the street
and STOP TO observe the vast Improvement be-
tween the old structures which once occupied
this important space aud those BY which it is now
being so rapidly appropriated.
Tie triangle directly opposite the Palace Hotel

structures already erected and about to be built
will serve as models for others TO be constructed
In its immediate vicinity, or in other sections Of
the city.
The building at 626 Market street, while less
prctenlious as to size than some Others, is fully
equal IN architectural merit To any OF them. Its
style OF architecture Is symmetrical ana pleasing,
aud the m terial of which IL is constructed Conn
pressed brick and red sand stone) will offer 4
pleasant contrast to the observation; but what
makes the building especially notable is the
character OF the sculpture, which has been
pended on The stone work Of the front. This has
been displayed on The capitals aud tile Pillars
which support the front and upon the arch which
fronts the bird story. While only portion of the
carving has been completed, yet the elegant de-
sign OF the work ana the BEAUTIFUL finish of its
execution are attracting surprising amount Of
attention from artists and coanoSseurS who
realize that this city has finally attracted sculp
tors worthy OF the name, and difficult TO suTpass
In their profession.

SANTA CRUZ CHOSEN.
The Second Brigade, N. G. G., Will
Camp at the Seaside.

Santa Cruz was chosen yesterday after
noon by the brigade and regimental COM
manders as the place for the encampment of

A committee will visit the City of the Holy
Cross on Wednesday evening and make the
necessary arrangements. General Dickn-
son has determined that the brigade shall

and all that the citizens of Santa Cruz will
be asked 10 furnish will be the camp ground,
water, fuel, light and forage.
A committee will also visit the railroad
company, TO the end that the same rate of
transportation may be obtained as in 1890,
namely: 81 80 for those in uniform
All the indications are that the brigade
encampment will be most successful affair,
the day and time for departure being one of
the first elements promising such success.
The camp will undoubtedly be pitched on
the field where the brigade was in 1890 and
the division in 1885, though its disposition
may differ somewhat
