THERE has been question raised about
the legality of the appropriation of the
Board of Freehoders for stone roads.
The doubt arises from the fact that there
is difference of opinion about the amount
the Board was authorized to vote. The
amendments to the stone road law which
were put in early in the session, and
which we're passed after considerable
hard work on the part of some of our
Burlington county people-notably DR..
Parry and George Wildes-proyided that
the cost of stone roads in any county
should not exceed in any one year one
quarter of one per centum of the taXables
of the county for the preceding year.
Just before the Legislature adjourned a
bill was introduced and hastily rushed
through, creating the office of road com
missioner, who is to receive SIS per day
and expenses for every day he is engaged
in the duties of his office. The appoint
ment of supervisors was, by this act,
taken from the Board of Freeholders and
given to this commission. The same act
nut back the limit of costs of roads to one
half of one per centum. This part of the
law is not relished by Burlington county
taxpayers, who worked hard for the other
provision. and who felt that the basis OF
one-quarter of one per cent. was high
enough. They feel that great injustice
was done by the way in which the
amendment undoing all their work was
hastily pushed through. Just who is re
sponsible for this latest legislation we do
not know. Edward Burrough, of Cam
den. was made commissioner under the
new amendment

Legal Injustice to Women.

A young man and wife start out to-
gether in a small investment, depend
ing for profit ON the joint labor OF one
behind the counter, or both, as business
may require, the wife being the domes-
tic manager.
Nine times in ten, under my observa'
! tion, the wife works tho harder. Sh,
! works IN the kitchen; she worklsl th,
store; she does not indulge in lu1suries.
If, after 10 years of common toll, in
cluding the blessed relief of mother
hood and its joyful added cares, he, un-
der our lax divorce laws, should bru-
tally cast her off on one of the many
pretexts found now sufficient, the equi-
ty of that wife and mother in the prop
erty of which she fully halved the max
ing is not recognized except by caprice
of courts or license of flexible statutes.
must say that the disposition Of the
judiciary has been almost invariably
on the side of equity, but common law
and statutory bars still operate hardly
upon the wife and mother.
The mother, however abject her pow
erty, wants the child or the children
and will work herself TO the bone to
maintain and educate them. Under the
laws that lie on the books of most OF
our states, she cannot get her moiety of
the material goods TO which she is in
entitled, except after expense
and delay, If she succeed even then.
She rarely succeeds. - Philadelphia

Rendering Ca. burner. safer.

Electricity has not yet displaced gas
altogether as an illuminaDt, nor will
it do SO for a long while yet. A large
number of people, therefore, continue
to have practical interest in gas burn
ers. An attachment for such devices
has recently been patented by Benjamin
F. Field of Los Angeles, designed TO
serve a good purpose. One occasionally
hears of partial or complete suffocation
from carelessness in ext.nguishing gas
lights in sleeping rooms. Inexperience,
inattention, fatigue or possibly intoxi-
cation prevents the valve from being
properly closed when the gas is turned
off, and probably this has more than
the alleged blowing out of the light TO
do with the accidental asphyxiation re-
ported every now and then by the news
papers. Proceeding ON that theory, at
any rate, Mr.. Field afiixes to the valve
stem a light spiral spring, which con-
tinually tries TO shut of the gas. When
the gas is turned on, a jointed thumb
piece may be caught in any one of sew
rral notches and held there automatic
nlly. To put the light out, il is neces-
Jary only TO disengage the thumbpiece.
The spring then closes the valve and
closes it tight. The mechanism does
not interfere at all with the regulation
of the size of the me.-New York

An Arab CourtshIp.

Bashful lovers are almost an unknown
curiosity in Arabia, for Arab court
ship" is unceremonious, 20 say the least
of it. A young man sees girl whom
he would like 10 marry in another tribe.
He rides up at night, finds out where she
is sleeping, dashes mp TO her tent, snatches
her up in his arms, puts her before him
on his horse and sweeps away like the
wind. II he happens 10 be caught. he
is shot; if he is not, the tribe from which
he has stolen the girl pays them visit
in a few days. A priest of the tribe
joins the hands of the young man and
girl, and both tribes join in the festivi-
ties. Most of the brave men steal their
wives, but there are some few peace low
ing youths who do not. On a calm moon
light night you may see one of these lat

French stIIt walkers.

The majority of the people in the
western portion of the French province
of Gascony walk ON stills. That is a
district known as the Landcs, with a
sea line bounding the French side Of
the bay Of Biscay and extending at its
greatest breadth about 60 miles back
into the country. The Landes form one
of the widest and strangest parts of
France, and the inhabitants are fully
as strange and uncultivated as the black
pine forests, the dreary swamps and
the far spreading deserts Of fine white
sand which they inhabit Most Of them
are shepherds. and they elevate them
selves on stills five feet high in order to
be above the marshes and the sand
blasts. These stilt walkers present
strange and uncouth figures as they pro
gress over the wilderness of country in
attendance on their hocks, sometimes
at the rate of six or seven miles an hour.
They rest by the aid of Il third wooden
support, pursuing meanwhile their ever
lasting occupation of knitting.
In appearance the Landes shepherd
looks like an uncouth mass of dirty
wool. On his body he wears fleece
like rude paletot; his thighs and legs
on the outside are protected by greaves
of the same material and his feet in
cased in sabots and coarse woolen socks.
In some parts of Malaysia the natives
walk almost habitually on stills. Ma
ture and necessity have brought about
this result, rs excessive foundations of
river and sea often submerge the whole
surface of the land in many places.

Of the down town departments at pres
ent. A certain chief of division named
Smith is very popular with the ladies
of the department. He has under him
a clerk also named Smith. On New
Yesr's day the wife of Clerk Smith pre-
ICatS1 him with a son and heir, and on
the following day his friends in the de-
partment fairly swarmed around his
desk with congratulations. That morn
ing a modest little maidep clerk. whom
for present purposes we may style Miss
Jones, overheard two acquaintance In
the corridor talking about mother and
child' in hushed voices, and womanlike
she stopped to ask what the news was.
why, haven't you heardf" exclaim-
ed one of the conversants. "Mr. Smith
has had an addition TO his family--a
splendid big boy. We've all been in TO
offer our congratulations.
Indeed" cried Miss Jones. II must
go too.
Suiting the action to the word and
without pausing 10 reflect that there
were two Messrs. Smith, she started post
haste for the desk of the chief of divi-
sion. He was buried up to his ears In
work and did not notice her approach
till in her gentle little voice she said;
PLEASE accept my congratulations,
Mr.. Smith"
Chief Smith is a kindly man. His
friends of the other sex had been inter-
rupting his work all the morning with
wishes for happy new year, and in his
absorption he had fallen into a stereo-
typed way of answering without half
hearing the remark or noticing it's form.
So when he heard Miss Jones' light
treble saying something indicative OF
good wishes he merely raised his eyes
mechanically and responded with an
absent air:
Thank you, Miss Jones. The Same
to you!"
Miss Jones gave a little gasp and at
tempted to stammer out something ox-
planatory of which nothing was audible
to the clerks sitting around except the
words little stranger" Still the chief,
his mind full of his work, missed tho
entire purport of her speech. All he
observed was that the dear little lady
had not left her place at his side, and
thinking that possibly he had not spo-
ken distinctly enough the first time he
repeated in louder tone:
THE same to you, Miss Jones-and
many of theml'
This was too much both for Miss
Jones, who retreated to her room, blush
ing like peony, and for the surround
ing clerks, who roared till the Office
fairly shook. Ever since Jan. 2 IL has
been noticed that Miss Jones conducts
her business with Chief Smiths division
in writing or by messenger. - Kate

By this time the struggles of the beast
had again ceased. and wearied from his
double encounter he stood with his head
pulled down to the ground half astride
the desperate man, who was holding on
for life. Whether Major Worthington
was frightened or not it is hard to say,
probably he was, but there was no doubt
about his being angry when he saw lsam

made another effort for freedom and re-

tor in circle, he rolled him on the

stamped, but without relief. The des-
perate man clung to his hold with
grip that could not be broken. 1t was
the grip of death. Indeed it was now
a question of life or death.
Wearied down at last, the deer gave
himself and victim another breathing
spell, and the major continued:
