ber of years terror to the people of that
region, and her crimes and cruelties far
exceed those of the ordinary brigand in
Turkey or Servia. NIila is accuscu of
fourteen murders and numerous robber-

her deeds of blood was that she horribly
mutilated her victims. In audacity and
cruelty she had few equals among out
laws. She is not good looking and has
nose like hawk.

remedy is "There is but one way and
but one system that will ever give us the
kind of roads we need, 1t must be done
bya sygtcrfi or taxation that will fall

be done by placing reasonable

reasonable poll tax upon every man of
every calling, and then build the roads by
contract, just as railroads are built"

York the Sun says: !"Mr. Gustave Stein,
who was recently bitten by spider, died
at 8 o'clock this morning. His physi-
clans ascribe his death to pneumonia, but
this does not preclude the poison from the
spider from being the original and the
true cause of death. The bite was fol-
lowed by blood poisoning, which in time
gave way to hypostatic pneumonia, the
result OF the PATIENTS enfeebled condition
from the assesses formed by blood
poisoning. This form of pneumonia

arises from exposure Of the air passages
in the lungs to sudden and prolonged
