THE OBJECT IS GOOD ROADS
A National Movement in Which

j. Il. L. TupEer, the District Dele
Made an Interesting Report.

Mr.J. p. T. Trrrer, the accredited. dele
gate from the District to the national good
roads congress, recently held in Orlando,
Fla, has made Il roI ort TO The Con MISSION
ers summarizing he proceedings Of the kos-
sion.
The good roads congress, lis understood,
was the outcome OF Il coed deal OF asita-
toa throughout the country in the Interest
o: improved thoroughfarcs, the many thocs-
ands OF Interested bicyclists having had
much o Go with the movement, ana as the
result OF the sentiment thus awakened, aC-
coyding to Nj. Tuppcr's report, seventeen
states were represented, in addition to the
District Gen. oy Stone, CT the Department
of 4 Agriculture, presided.
The resolutions adopted by tn" congress,
Mr.. Tupper said, approve the use OF convict
labor in road making, and recommend Il
plan by which the expense OF building
highways and OF improvements shall be
divided between the state. county. and
the section benefited. The sentiment was
against having the general government
bear any part OF that expense, but 1t was
believed that great aid is afforded by the
collection OF data, as is now being done
through the Department of Agriculture.

the shock of the surprise, and glanced
quickly at my companion. who was al
ready a step or two in advance, as some
thing like feeling Of doubt flashed
through my mind. Thompson had spoken
OF his friends, and 1 had lightly con-
cluded that there was a lad in the
case, although he had not said so; and
now-what if it We're so? What if this
man who had saved my life-for I knew
that he must have done SO by his exer-
tions-what if this man were a rival?
A thousand tales of the readiness with
which girls can forget the absent flashed
through my mind, and for moment 1 was
ready to believe anything.
Thompson looked back and noticed my
hesitation. Come along" he said, in
low tone; this is the place."
/ followed him mechanically toward rne
house. Most OF the windows were dark,
but us we came in sight of the side OF
the well-known building, saw that a
broad band of light streamedfrom a French
window which opened on small piazza
that was more than half buried in gorgeous
creepers. 1 paused again for an instant;
indeed, L felt as if l dared not go on.
How often L had sat on that piazzai How
often / had wandered on just such night
as that under the shadows of the palms!
My companion appeared hardly to re-
member my presence now, but stepped
eagerly forward to the light. As he put
his foot on the step-it seemed to me
that he did it like one who felt sure of
his welcome, and 4 hot smart passed through
me as Ilooked-he halftlrned and dbeckOned
me to follow. l did SO like man in
a dream, and in another moment / stood
on the well-remembered spot.
The window was thrown widely open,
and In another instant l caught sight of
an arm and shoulder, and head bent
down, as its owner gaZed at something in
her lap. "Senorita MarGarita," my COM
panion almost whispered in low tone
yet there was something indescribabIy
sweet to my ear in the sound OF the first
word. To me, at any rate, she had not
been ''senorita, and my heart bounded at
the word, which in single moment gave

at the time it did not strike me as strange
atan Iwondered a little what Thompson
could mean by asking me 10 stick by him,
