When once the fact gets firmly estab-
llshed in the minds of the farmers Of
the United States that 1t is more ex-
pensive to maintain bad roads than to
make and keep in condition good roads
they will take active interest in the
question and an era OF road building
will begin which will add to their
wealth, prosperity and comfort, and
benefit the country at large as much
as has the laying Of railroad tracks and
the advance Of the steam locomotive.
Let those engaged in agriculture study
such figures as those recently issued by
the supervisor of New York, wherein he
shows that it costs half as much to
haul produce three miles by wagon aa
1t costs to haul it 500 miles on the rail-
road. The supervisor figures out that
with system of good macadam roads
the farmers would save an amount
each year equal to the interest on from
$40 to $50 an acre, according TO the
crop raised, and would increase the
value of their land either to sell OF
hold by like amount.

Emergency Measure.

Washington, April 2S.-The house
today passed, as an emergency war
measure, " bill empowering the presi-
dent to call out the volunteer forces
and providing for their organization.
Both the president and Secretary Alger
had urged the imperative necessity for
the passing Of the bill today, and Chair
man Hull, of the military affairs COM
mittee, drove it under whip and spur.
The bill was drafted at the war depart
ment, introduced in the house yester-
day and considered and reported by the
committee today. No such expedition
could have been possible except under
the stress of war pressure. The bill is
permanent in its character. The prin-
cipal change in the bill, as introduced,
was that the appointment OF all regi-
mental officers are to be made by the
governors Of the states instead Of by the
president, as was proposed originally
by the war department.. This con-
forms to the practices Of the civil war.

Immediately signed gave rise to few
disquieting reports, but it soon APP
peared from statements OF cabinet OFF,
GERS that the president had not the
slightest intention Of withholding his
signature, and that the delay IN attach
ing It was accounted for solely by his
desire to prepare full and complete
plan Of operation in the immediate
future, before taking the final step Of
turning the joint resolution into

As to the course of events in the i'm
mediate future, the only prediction
that can be made is one based on prec-
edents. According to these, Minister
Woodford will notify the Spanish gov
ernment of the action Of the govern
ment Of the United States, and should
the Spanish answer be unsatisfactory,
as ia expected, the next step would be
for him to ask for his passports and
leave Madrid. That would be followed
instantly by the withdrawal from
Washington OF Senior Polo, the Spanish
minister.
At this point it can be said that the
state department officials are confident
that the Spanish government will SO
shape every phase of the negotiations
as to oblige us to take the initiative at
every point
AAfter the withdrawal of the min
listers, and assuming that Spain does
not back down. will follow actual war,
but whether or not the first overt act
would be preceded by a formal declara-
tion OF war, which would insure the
immediate naturalization Of the powers,
or whether the North Atlantic squadron
will make its appearance off Havana al
a beginning, cannot be predicted.

ANIMALS AS MODELS.
Some of the Experiences OF nm Artist In

Some OF the experiences ot nm Artst sh
sketching From Life.
Leaves from the Sketch Book Of an
Animal Artist" is an article by Mere
dith Nugent in the St. Nicholas. Mr..
Nugent says; There was an elephant
in the Jardin-des-pl Planets that would
not pose unless he were paid for 1t, and
paid in advance. Then he took pay
ment in buns and pie, but II these were
not forthcoming, he would deliberately
walk to the farther end OF the enclosure
and turn his back. The only way to
get drawing OF this big fellow was to
engage some one to feed him mean
while. In the same gardens saw an
unusually interesting sight one morn
ing. A little sunbear with large
marrow bone In his shaggy paws was
resorting to all sorts OF bear devices to
get the sweet marrow. Suddenly he
lay down on his back, placed one end
Of the bone in his jaws, and with his
hind paws tipped the other end Of the
bone SO high up that the choice morsel
slipped into his mouth. II the animal
could only have understood the shouts
Of approval that greeted this perform
ance, think 1t would have turned his
head. In one OF the sketches you will
see how this feat was accomplished. As
a rule / find the models very good ma
tured. True, they keep sharp eye on
me for the first few days, but after
that are generally quite friendly. OF
course, there are some parts OF the
business they do not like. The oriole
never was happy when held him in
my hand for close inspection, but q
beautiful cat which rebelled when !
first placed her in bird cage-to keep
her in front OF me-grew SO fond OF
being there, and after finished my
drawings she cried and cried to be put
back into the cage. Intense curiosity
Is the great characteristic OF animals
when in the studio. They are as much
interested in you and the surroundings
as you are in them. This is especially
the case with birds. Leave the studio
but few minutes, and these two
legged fellows are hopping into every
thing. OF course they inspect the
paper on which you have been draw.

and occasionally vary these proceedings
by taking bath in the water bowl.
