Mr.. EDITon:-Thc Boar! Of Super
visors for the county met ERE today
and determined on road improvs {
ment.
They will let to contract at once
the grading, making and maintain
ing the public road from nashville te
Cane Charles. When thigis done ii
will be quickly followed |by letting
other roads. especially o wharves
and stations, that prodrt e may be
delivered cheaper.
1t is expected that within one yeal
Northampton will have 3he best and
cheapest roads in the Safe.
The idea now is that pll shall BIZ
done in good shape add kept so
The Board has Learned by work
already done that SYST I'm of road
making is more economical than the
present way of doing no ding; which
only wastes money. Judge Kendall
Commemorative attorney Spady
and the BOARD are united and pulling
together, backed by the people, and
it is Il strong team. North hampton is
going to the front.

BRUSSELS, Jan. 20.-Eight hundred un-
employed gathered near the Place de In
Constitution yesterday afternoon, and
were addressed by several anarchist agita-
tors. The speakers told the men that the
city belonged to the workers, and cXhorted
them to take all the food and clothes they
needed from the shops, The men raised
the cry, "fo the bourse;" about dozen
men drew bun6les of red flags from their
coats and dist sibuted them, and the mob
started down the avenue waving the flags
and shouting against the capitalists. AT
the Place Ruppe So en- gendarmcs tried to
stop them. but they were thrown down
and beaten before they could draw their
swords.
A call for reinforcements was sent out,
and sixty gendarmes reached the bourse
just as the foremost men were mounting
the steps. The gendarmes drew their sa-
bres and ordered the mob to dispersc. The
men still pushed their way up the steps.
The gendarmes then charged, cutting right
and left, while the workingmcn fought
back with clubs and stones. Several gen
darmes were slightly wounded and many
workingmen were cut. A gcndarme
I knocked down the leader with the fiat of
/ his sword and captured the large red flag
which the man had carried at the head Of
I the mob. After ten minutes struggle the
rioters were dispersed.
! Meantime the socialist and anarchist
| speakers had melted some 800 men about
1 half n mile from the buurse to attack the
shops. They broke into six baker shops,
took all the bread they wanted, and threw
the rest into the streets. AS they started
for another shop the police appeared with
