GOOD ROADS.
Remarks By Secretary Richardson of the
l.. A. W.

Secretary Percy Richardson of the
Maine division, L. A. W, Portland
civil engineer, addressed the meeting
of the Civic Progress League and Twin
City Cycle club il Lewiston Wednesday
evening. He spoke of the prejudice
against wheelmen on account of the rock.
less riding of few. He said the wheel
roads are because they push wheels over
them. Horses learned it long ago, but
men did not, because they let the horses
do the work. Portland's experience was
graphically described. With 500, 600
appropriated, about % per cent was
generally used for permanent improve
ments. Under the commission the per-
centage of ~ has been reached.
3 The commission put in as much paving
in one year with a street appropriation
of $76. 900 as the street commissioners
did in two years with appropriations
of $a2, 900 and $50. 600 The speaker gave
startling figures showing shameful
crcokedness in the construction of cross
walks during past years in Portland.
MIR. Richardson said: ~ have "A friend
in Portland who takes 90 wheelmen to
Europe each year and spends $40, 200.
Other Maine wheelmen go TO Massa-
chusetts and all the money they spend
would be retained in the State of Maine
if we only had good roads here. There is
no better locality than Maine for wheel
ing or for coasting parties if the roads
were good, and they would benefit the
state great deal if they toured here
Mr.. Richardson answered several cues
tions. He said the comm ssion was ad-
mitted to be success and that only the
details of the work were discussed. The
commissioner is the old city engineer
with his former salary of $1,000 and an
extra assistant in his Office.
The new system has caused an increase
of $500 a year and has already saved
$4,000.

and appraiser. at 1856 Washington Street.
He went to bed one night about six years
ago, seemingly in robust health. When
he awoke his left side was stiffsned by
the deadening of the nerves.
The interviewer sought out MIR. Ware
to get the facts He gave the interesting
particulars in his own way.
The first shock came very suddenly
while WAS asleep, but 1t was not lasting
In its effects. and in few weeks was
able to be about. A few months after,
when exhausted by work and drenched
with rain, L went home in very nervous
state. The result was n second and more
severe shock, after which my left arm
and leg were practically helpless
My grandfather, W no was o soldier in
the Revolutionary War, and lost au arm
in the struggle for American Independ
enoe, died finally of paralysis. NY father
also died of paralysis although it was COM
plicated with other troubles, and SO had
some knowledge of the fatal charac. or of
the disease which is hereditary in our
family. After the second shock I took
warning, for. in all probability. third
would carry me of.
Almost everything under the sun was
recommended to me and I tried all the
remedies that seemed likely to do any
good. electricity, massage and SPECIALISTS
put to no effect.
"The only thing found that helped
me was Or. Williams Pink Pills, and I
verify believe that it it hadn't been for
those pills would have been dead years
ago.
Eyes. still have slight reminder of
the last attack six years ago. My left
arm is not as strong as the other and my
left foot drags a little, as the paralysis

Mr.. Ware has every appearance of per-

office promptly at o'clock every morn

many men retire from active life. His

STATE TOPICS OF INTEREST.

Thirty odd creditors of the town of
Foxcroft in the recent Hale defalcation
met at tn Dover court house Thursday to
devise means for combining their suits
and securing one lawyer to act for them,
thus reducing the expense. No definite
action was taken except to appoint a
committee consisting of Messrs. A. P.
Clark, Freeman jackson, E. H. Whittier
and G. Z. Herring to take stops toward
securing an attorney, and report at some
future date.
A Lewiston man claims to have found
an asbestos mine in Maine He and his
father have been numbering in a remote
district, and it is supposed that the dis
covery was made while he was engaged
in logging or exploring operations.
Where he formerly lived III Canada there
are large asbestos mines. and he is we'll
satisfied that he has made no mistake in
identifying the mineral. He proposes,
he says, to get control of the tract Of
land where the mineral is.
