STRANGE FAMILY MEETING.

Brother Who Had Never Been One
Another Became Acquainted.
The recent Grand Army encampment
held at Buffalo was the cause of many
happy reunion, dramas in real life
of which the public knew little or moth
ing. An incident came to the notice
of a reporter yesterday of five brothers
who were visiting in this city, and who
We're all brought together for the first
time in their lives. The oldest had
broken the family tie before the young
est was born, and the other brothers
had been separated through other cir
cumstances, so that their meeting in
this city was the first time that all five
had been together.
The names of these five are William
Getchell, of West Haven, Mich, aged
fifty-eight years; Earl, Of New Haven
Conn.,, aged fifty-five; Martin c., of
Ovid, Mich, aged fifty-three; Frank A.
of Elmira, aged forty seven, and
Charles, Of No. r. Caledonia-ave., this
city, aged thirty-nine. All are strong
stalwart, robust and good-natured, and

The London Driver the Best in the
World.
The most striking contrast between
English and French character one may
see is afforded by the drivers in London
and Paris, writes Walter Wellman in
the Chicago Tines-Herald. The Lon
don driver is the best in the world. No
matter whether he is is on the box of an
omnibus or the high seat of a hanson
cab, he knows his business through and
through. He is never nervous, andnever
makes his horse nervous. He rarely uses
the whip. He is quiet, steady and alert
He takes chances that amaze his pas
sengers-slipping through narrow OPEN
ings, where hub grazes hub. But the
hubs never come into collision. One
may stay in London a week without
seeing a street accident, notwithStand-

ROAD DESTROYERS.
NARROW TIRES ARE THE HIGH
WAYS WORST ENEMY.
THE FINEST MACADAM SOON sUCCUMBS
TO THEIR USE-WIDE TIRES ARE
GOOD ROAD MAKERS.

The road question has been one that
I have studied much, as | have ridden n
wheel from the introduction of the first
two wheel velocipedes until the present
time, writes a correspondent of The l..
A. ". Bulletin. During these years
have pedaled over roads from the st.
Lawrence To the gulf and from the At
lantic coast to the Pacific. | do not
mean that | have ridden across the
states, but have taken i'll many parts ali
over the United States. so have had q
chance to see different styles of road
making and different mixtures that
make or spoil roads. l have come to the
conclusion that in about four fifths Of
the states wide tired wheels would turn
the now bad roads into smooth and
money saving ones. The balance can
only be made good by regular system,
engineered By adopts in the art Of road
making.
The counties now spend their money
each year by scraping the bitches and
piling this worthless filth in the road
way, to be rolled, cut cup and finally
washed down into the ditch again. Dur
ing this shifting process it becomes
ground up into fine powder, which can
not be rolled or packed down, making
fine soft grade of mud in wet weather
aud rrespondingly good dust in dry
weather. Wide tired wheels will be Of
little use in such places unless all this
fine dust is first scraped off and q
heavy course of crushed stone put on,
rolled thoroughly and covered with
gravel and again rolled, with plenty Of
crown at center for drainage. When this
is done, shut ont all narrow tired heavy
wagons. and good smooth road will
be insured. In the spring and fall go
over the road and fill up all soft or low
places; see that the bitches are not clog
ged il low places, causing the roadhed
to be flooded during storms.

the roads are fairly good as country

This gravel soon packs down and
after two or three moderate rains is in

the first hard rain; then, while 1t is
soft, along come the cutters, in the
shape of two inch tires. worn round on
