The recent terrible disaster at a
grade crossing Of the Central Railroad
Of New Jersey at Seabright again calls
attention to the dangers Of such cross
ings. The fault in this instance rests
quite as much with the local authori-
ties as with the railroads or the state.
There is a law in New Jersey which is
extremely liberal toward villages and
towns in this respect. 1t requires local
taxpayers to pay only one-fourth Of the
cost Of removing grade crossings, the
rest Of the cost being divided between
the state and the railroad companies.
It is asserted by the railroad commits
sioners Of that state that in many of
the attempts made by them to do away
that at Seabright they have met with
stubborn refusal on the part of local
taxpayers to bear their share of the
expense, while in scarcely any instance
have railroad companies objected to
paying their share, one-half of the total
cost. The commissioners say that it is
next to impossible to get villages and
townships that would be benefited by
the removal of these deathtraps to
bear any part Of the expense Of the
work. 1t is the old difficulty of secur-
ing good roads. All committees are
eager for safe, broad, smooth and d.
rect highways, but many of them want
somebody else to pay the bill. The
public demand, however, is that some
thing should be done toward accelerat-
ing the present very slow work of
abolishing the deadly grade crossing.

Public Interest IN Road Building.
Public interest III the improvement Of
country highways is attested in sig
nificant manner by the presence Of
over 700 delegates at the good roads
convention recently held in Milwaukee.
AS Governor Scofeld said in his ad-
dress Of welcome at Milwaukee, the fu-
ture prosperity Of the industrial class
es will depend not upon large advances
in prices Of farm products, but rather
upon the ability to reduce to the mini
mum the cost Of production. If the
farmer had followed the example set
by the manufacturers and had studied
more closely the cost per pound of get
ting his products into a market, we
would now have much better roads
than we have.
Singularly enough. the farmers are
slOwest to appreciate the advantages
to be reaped from improved highways
The many defeats met by legislative
attempts to provide a system of state
aid for road building can nearly all be
traced to the opposition Of the farmers
The Curtis good roads bill which was
introduced in the last general assem-
bly, in New York state was a most
meritorious measure in that it embod-
led the results Of the experience of
those states that have made greatest
progress in road building. 1t embraced
the principle Of state cooperation in
the construction Of highways, which
has been found to be the only practical
and effective plan for inaugurating a
system of road building throughout a
state. Patches Of good roads in widely
separated counties are of little benefit
to the state as a whole The system
must be general and comprehensive,
based upon progressive plan that re-
quires the completion of certain
number Of miles Of roads each year.
Until farmers throughout the country
are more willing to give legislation Of
this character their hearty support
than they have heretofore been very
little progress is likely to be made in
practical road building.

Various industries are suffering from
the scarcity of steel, the mills being un-
able to keep upWith the demands. Some
railways find their work very much de-
layed, and several construction con-
tracts will fail of completion at con-
tract dates. In the meantime steel
mills are being worked to their full ca
pacity, and the capacity of plants is
being very materially increased. There
promises to be delay also in fulfilling
navy contracts.

On the banks of the James river,
close to where nearly three hun
dred years ago came the cavalier
to give to Southern manhood the up
lifting power of his genius, his
courage and his chivalry, they have
given her lasting sepulcher. The
breezes from every hillside, valley
and mountain of the Southland shall
bear sweetest benedictions to her
tomb, and the ripping waters of
the stream by which she rests,
fresh from the mountain tops which
pierce the blue skies which over
hang the mighty Alleghenies, shall
murmur softest requiem by her
grave, and as these flow into the
mighty ocean they will be taken up
by the chainless winds which
sweep with unbroken power over
the face of the great deep, and with
harmonious sweetness tell the story
to all the world of the marvellous
and wonderful love which the peo-
pie who fought for the lost but glo-
rifed cause Of the South feel for

loved Daughter of the Confed-

THE NEW CENSUS.

The twelfth Census will be the
biggest task of e-counting ever
undertaken.
1t will be a greater undertaking
than a census of Great Britain and
France combined.
Russia alone of nations has made
a count of over eighty million peo-
pie, but did not get such variety
of information.
The facts about Uncle Sans big
ness, industries, habits, religions
and education will be put upon
100, 100000 cards. The actual adj
dition and tabulation will all be
done by reckoning machines.
A thousand million questions
must be asked and answered to get
at the facts about population alone.
Then there are to be special re-
ports and tabulations of figures on
about forty special topics.
Census enumeration between
Alaska and Hawaii, where it will
involve a great amount of travelling,
and the most crowded areas of New
York, will present some variety.
These are the things the question
man will ask you;
Name, age, color, sex, married or
single, place of birth, birthplace OF
parents, alien or naturalized, num-
Der of years in the United States,
occupation, months employed, liter
acy, school attendance, ownership
of farms or homes.
If you're a farmer, merchant or
manufacturer there will be lot of
other questions.
The Census Bureau will need
100000 feet of floor space in a sin
gle building in Washington.

Helen Keller Riding a Wheel.

.lHelen Kellen, the wonderful young
girl who, although being blind,
deaf and dumb, deprived of so many
other senses, accomplishes as much
and even more than those gifted
with all their faculties, is learning
to ride a tandem. Although some
two or three years ago, under the
guidance of Col. T. w. Higginson,
she mounted a machine and rode a
short distance, today she really
took her first lesson under the guild
ance of Alfred st. Onge, an expert
and well-known bicycle rider. AT
a quarter past ? she started from
II Newbury street for a ride to
Jamaica Plain. Miss Keller seemed
to have no difficulty in mounting, and
started of with much self-con6dence
and as if she were quite used to rid
ing. She was given much good adj
vice by a party of interested small
boys who stood near, evidently
thinking their assistance invalua-
BILE. Miss Sullivan, her teacher,
accompanied her on her ride.
