Road Building on Long Island.

Three towns on Long Island,
which may be regarded as suburbs
of Brooklyn, have set an example
in road building which might be
initiated to good purpose in Mary
land. The village of Merrick, re-
lying alone on local taxation for
funds, recently completed a ma
cadam road five miles in length, in
Guiding the village streets and the
main road leading some dis
lance out Of town in both direc-
lions. Jamaica and Hemstead are
engaged in similar work, to be fin
ished before winter.
These roads are described as being
excellent pieces of highway con-
struction. The original soil was
removed and a roadbed made out
of rock and cement, Smoother
than pavement and hardly less en-
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1893-09-21

during" 1t is also believed that
the start thus effected wi result in
connecting these towns with the
paved streets in Brooklyn and in
changing some of Long islands
quagamires into level highways over
which it will be not only possible
but pleasurable to drive.
The Same thing is needed in the
MARYLAND towns. Their streets
should be macadamized and the
work extended BY degrees into the
outlying districts. The insufferable
dust of summer and the mud of
winter are not creditable to the vii
lagos where they are endured. To
say nothing of the comfort of the
people, the streets of every town in
Maryland ought to be changed into
macadam roads for the sake of gen
eral Improvement and progress.
The subject is worth rejecting
upon with view to very general
road Improvement in Maryland, be-
ginning in the countyseats and
larger towns and extending finally
all over the commonwealth.

Fires Caused by TrampS.

In the fall and winter months
tramps, who invade all sections of
the county, are in the habit of
sleeping in barns and hay barracks.
1t is believed that many of the fires
which occur in such places are at
tributable to carelessness in the use
of matches by these itinerants. 1t
is urged that vigilance should be
used by the authorities to prevent
tramps from wandering about the
county.

of Major Wilmer Mclean, aged Is,

The Roads of the French.

Thorough construction, vlgllant
watching and prompt repair are the
secrets of French successwith roads.
They tare of Jhree kinds-national,
depar ment and township. The
general rule in the rural districts is
to sacr flee the straight line in order
to follow the valleys as much as
possible, rising by gentle grades
where this is required. Side drain
age is provided for, and the road of
course is highest in the middle, the
sides sloping transversely about an
inch to the yard. matchmaking is
the rule of construction, except for
the towns, aid the layer of broken
stones is usually placed directly on
the beaten ground, though some
times a layer of sand or stones
lnterycnes to help the drainage.
To the removal of old material,
worn and wasted by use, the French
give great attention. After their
roads are finished they are carefully
rolled by the compressor which
consists of one or two heavy cYlln-
ders drawn by horses or propelled
by steam. For nearly half u CEN
fury the French engineers have
generally used on roadways built
for heavy traffic basatic rock where
it can be had near by, Its cost is
about 81 800 for the amount used
on mile of road, and Mr.. LOOMS
says that it is not only far better
but about 80 per cent. cheaper than
the crushed granite formerly so
much employed. New York Sun.

Plans for a Lake.

The Mountain Lake Park Asso-
citation have accepted the plans for
the new lake which Mr.. }. j. Whet-
stone, civil engineer, has been
working on for the past two weeks.
They will probably commence the
work of building in a short time,
and when it is completed they will
have one of the finest lakes that is
to be found on any mountain. The
lake will have surface Of boating
water of about twenty acres, and
there will be two islands built near
either end. The water will not be
less than three feet deep at any
place, and will be fed from twenty
eight fine, fresh flowing springs,
situated just short distance above
the site.
Besides this lake the association
will probably put a small dam
across the Little Yough river, which
by doing a little excavating, will
give them a distance of about two
thousand feet of water sufficiently
deep to make good boating, and it
will answer another purpose when
they complete the plan for sewer
age of the park, which they will
most likely do the early part of the
coming year, for the fall is so slight
in the river during the dry weather
there would scarcely be sufficient
water to carry away the sewerage,
and by having a dam above the
point where it comes in they could
let the water off at such intervals
as would be necessary, and so flush
the lower part of the stream and
carry away all accumulations from
the sewers.
The association have also decided
to give SO, 900 to assist in the ex-
tension of the Confluence and Oak
land railroad from Friendsville to
Oakland, and it Is the general
opinion of the public that work will
be commenced on that road in
very short time. 1t is understood
that j. j. MILESTONE will have the
work in charge.

Hints for Girls,

Girls, word with YOU. Don't
go home with a young man who
won't go to church with you. If
your company is worth having at
all, it is equally GOO on the gong
and returning trip. Disabuse these
young fellows of the notion that
you will accept their company any
where it is their pleasure to tend it.
This will add to your self-respect
and in addition it will scatter big
crowd of gay Lotharies who hug
church steps at the close of evening
service as flies do to "a sugar hogs
head. Something ought to be done
to break up this pernicious habit of
loafng about sanctuary doors, which
has become an eye sore. If the tact
of the girls don't remedy the evil
the church authorities should invite
offenders inside, and if that fails,
turn the policemen loose among
them. They might at least seek
an alley to exhaust their p0or to-
bacco in, and for a store house for
stories that have no possible con-
nectlon with the sermon. Here's a
missionary work for you, young
ladies. Don't think you can re-
form man after you are yoked to
him. He'll come to terms with less
effort on this side of the altar.

a great many housekeepers are chary
about cooking game, as though there
were some mystery in its proper prepa-
ration, and a good deal OF nonsense has
been talked about rare" game which
has perpleXed and warned of the orii-
nary person, who has no appetite for
raw hesh. AS a rule, all dark-feshed
birds. like ducks and grouse. should be
cooked about as rare as roast beef, so
that the blood runs from the knife.
Birds with white flesh. like partridge.
should be as we'll done as barnyard
fowl. A simple rule for time allows
eighteen or twenty minutes roasting
for either Canyas-back or redhead duck.
fifteen minutes for teal. eighteen or
twenty minutes for grouse. twelve or
or fifteen minutes for doe birds, ten
minutes for either rlover or woodcock.
and eight or ten minutes for English
snipe. Tender, plump quail require from
fifteen to eighteen minutes, and the
average plump partridge from thirty
five to forty minutes. This implies the
hriskest heat the range oven can give a
heat that will turn a sheet OF writing
paper dark brown in ten minutes.
