GOOD ROADS.

As we have previously stated the
loss incurred by bad roads in the
United States amounts to about six
million dollars annually.
With these figures staring them in
the face we can not see how any
farmer-for the farmer is the man
upon whom this loss falls-can fail to
see the wisdom in spending few dol
lars each year for the cause OF good
roads.
This enormous loss falls more heav-
ilv upon the South than upon any
other section of the country, and it is
the South that needs country road
improvements more than any other
section, because its railroad facilities
are more limited than any other sec
tions and the haul to market Or ship
ping point is greater.
To give some idea Of the great
waste and energy and force that bad
roads incur. it is only necessary to
say that recent experiment by experts
shows the following results:
The load that one horse can move
on iron rails on a level road requires
a horse and a half on level asphalt
pavement, three and a half horses on
the best Belgian block pavement,
seven horses on cobblestones, 20
horses on ordinary dirt roads and 40
horses on sand"
They would go to show that the
farmer who hauls his products over
an ordinary dirt road, when it is even
in fair condition, is required to sup
ply Just twenty times as much power
as the railroad is required 10 supply
to move tho same amount of product.
In the Eastern part Of the State,
where the roads are sandy, this power
has to be doubled.
In a great many sections OF the
State rock for macadam is not avail
able, and good roads necessarily cost
more.
In the oil belts of Pennsylvania and
the adjacent territory. crude oil has
been used for road making with very
satisfactory results.
This oil is cheap and can be pur-
chased at the wells at small cost.
1t is claimed that a road treated to
the oil process 10 both water and dust
proof 1t is to be hoped. now, that .
new impetus has been given to road
building in this State, the good work
will 90 on until every county has
good roads. The money spent in
building good roads brings better and
surer interest than any investment
the farmer can make.
When the farmers OF North Caro-
lima realize this they will have taken
= long step forward.-Charlotte Ne'os'

proprietor. The child identified Woertz as
the man who sold her the liquor and he
followed in the case of McCaffery A
pitcher and can of beer are now in the
Fifth precinct as evidence.
The Epworth League Union has started
off on another tack in an effort to enforce

There was considerable excitement at
four o'clock yesterday afternoon on Mer-
Ger street, between Varick and Monmouth
streets, when horse attached to light
wagon owned by Mr.. Neil Murray, and
occupied by himself and friend, took
fright at a bicyclist who shot past him.
The horse dashed madly up the asphalt
pavement which leads to the Boulevard,
making bicyclists and everyone on the
street run upon stoops of the houses
and seek other places of safety.
The street was crowded at the time with
carriages and bicycle riders going to and
from the Boulevard, and there were some
people who had very narrow escapes from
serious injury. The two men in the
wagon had to jump for their lives, as they
were unable to control the animal The
wagon and horse came to a stop when
the body struck lamp post in front of
ST. Bridget's Hall, near Monmouth street,
tearing it from its running gear and
smashing the large panes of glass to
small pieces and wreeking the iron post

LAUD MRS, NATION.
Speakers at Methodist Tenn
perance Meeting Liken
Her to John Brown.

The anniversary exercises of the Total
Abstinence and Prohibition Society were
held last Saturday evening at Hedding
M. e. Church on Montgomery street. The
meeting was presided over by the Rev.
A. L. Wilson. who spoke of the good
work being done by Mrs. Nation and
showed that the cause of temperance
was not yet dead The next speaker was
the Rev. c. P. Woodruff, of Dover, N j.,
who said that the question of the twen-
tieth century was the liquor question and
the legislation needed by sober and hon
est men to overcome it. Thousands of
men daily have temptations thrown in
their way, and there is no doubt that
there are unfortunates everywhere.
DR.. Woodruff after dwelling on the
curse of liquor, likened Mrs. Nation to
John Brown, who came from Kansas to
Virginia to free the slaves.
"They surrounded that old man with
soldiers said the speaker, ''and cut and
slashed him. then nursed him back to
life to hang him, but back of it all was
black cloud of slavery. which in five
years ended in a bloody strife and then
there were no more bondmen. Now, in
these later days, from Kansas comes a
hatchet Her attacks upon the saloons
have caused CONSERVATION. Religious
and LIQUOR papers have discussed her
crusade, and it has been declared that
she is insane. Carrie Nation with her
hatchet shifting here and there has
caused terror. The cause of prohibition
is the great shadow of the present day
and God grant that it may grow to such
proportions that it will be felt"
Tne Rev. ]. A. Hensey Of Bayonne said
that the liquor question was the problem
of the Twentieth Century. He told how
at the beginning of the Nineteenth Cen
tury the drinking habit fiourished, even
among pastors, and weddings, christen-
ings, funerals and other functions would
be made excuses to drink, and no man
was an execution.

NO SUNDAY BALL.
Chief Muryhy Says Only
Games That Don't Pay
May Be Played.

The proposed game of baseball between
the Jersey City Baseball Club and the
Star Athletic Club of Newark, which was
scheduled to open the local season yes
terday afternoon at the Johnston avenue
grounds, was not played because the
police authorities notified the manage
ment of the local organizatio that the
playing of the game would constitute
breaking the Sabbath observance law.
The Newark team was notified and it re-
manned at home. A crowd of several
hundred baseball enthusiasts went to the
grounds only to be told that the game
was called off. Many questions were
asked and the authorities came in for
severe criticism. A patrolman was at the
grounds in order to see that no game was
played and he had instructions to arrest
anyone who broke the law.
This action on the part of the police
leads the managers of semi-professional
and amateur teams to believe that the
National game will not be seen in this
city this season beyond a fewminorcon-
tests between teams composed of boys.
over the law, but it will probably not
succeed
Chief Murphy, when seen about the
matter this morning, said:-"If boys wish
to amuse themselves on Sunday by play
ing ball they may go to the lots and play
as much as they please so long as they do
not interfere with other people. l be-
lieve it is a good healthy sport tending
to develop the manhood of the young men
but the peace and quiet of Sunday must
be maintained and that large portion of
the citizens of the city who seek rest in
their homes must be protected from the
noise of large crowds of boys and men
who tramp through the streets making
much noise This condition of affairs at
tends only the games played between big
teams at grounds where admissions are
charged. The small games are not Of
fensive but the semi-professionals draw
large crowds that cause disturbance.
THE law says that games shall not be
played for gain, and so long as an ad-
mission is charged or money is obtained
in any way from the spectators for the
privilege of seeing the games, they will
not be permitted to go on. We will not
allow any such arrangement as that ,prac-
ticed the last few Sundays of last season
when score cards were sold, the buying
of which gave the purchaser the right to
enter the grounds. If games are played
and we learn that players are being paid
for their services it shall be considered
that they are liable under the law"
IF two prominent semf-professional
teams, such as the Jersey City Club and
the West New York Field Club were to
play on the Johnston avenue grounds and
no admission was charged would the
game be allowed to go on?' the Chief was
"Yes: but if we learn that any one
gains money by the game we shall act"
