BY THEODORE STANTON.

The widespread and we'll organized ef- forts which are being made in the United States to improve the public roads, de- serve the highest praise and encourage ment, especially the latter Much en- couragement may be found in the his- tory of the same work in European coun- tries, where, as rule the highways are now so fine, but where, not many years ago, they were scarcely better than those in the United States.
 Let us look at France for an instance, which, taken all in all, possesses perhaps the best road system in the world, as all cyclists will admit. What is the lesson taught by an examination of the history, results and present condition of her great national state and municipal road build ing efforts?
 The magnificent roads of France, which are found in good condition and numer- ous all over her vast territory, even in the steepest mountain regions, do not, as whole, date further back than the reign of Louis Philippe. Sixty or seventy years ago, outside of few great miii- tary highways, which. even they. were more admirable for their breadth than their smoothness, France was no better off than the United States
 In the early part of the past century the French peasantry knew how to ride. The only expeditions way in which they could get about was astride horse. This is one of the reasons, by the way, why the first Napoleon had so much and such good cavalry. But today the French peasant not only does not know how

S1 TRENTON is being directed to
 fAN President Roosevelt's literary /-\ work just now because he Is
 the first man of letters to oc- cupy the Presidential chair since Thomas Jefferson. MT. Roosevelt has been writer for twenty years, or nearly half his life. and his productions have been widely read. It is but natural. however, now that he Is at the head of the na- tional government, that a larger propor- tion of the people should turn to see world of letters.
 His first publication was an historical work It appeared when he had been only year out of college. He was grad uated from Harvard in 1880. and "The Naval War of 1872; or the History of the United States Navy During the Last War With Great Britain" by Theodore Roosevelt. was published in 1882 It will be noticed that his investigations into history, the conduct of the navies. and warfare were begun in his earliest man. hood The Nation said of his first book:
 ''The impartiality of the authors judg- ments and the thoroughness with which the evidence Is sifted are remarkable and worthy of high praise
 MT. Roosevelt's next work, published three years later, was entitled Hunting Trips of Ranchman; Sketches of Sport on the Northern Cattle Plains, Together With Personal Experiences of Life on a Cattle Ranch" It was illustrated by A. B. Frost. R. Swain Clifford. J. c. Beard, Fannie E. Clifford and Henry Sandman. and was published in 1885 by the Putnams in the ''Medora Edition" quarto. limited to 800 copies, and sold by subscription at s15. Of the authors work the Nation said:
 His style is simple and devoid of pre- tense of fine writing, yet his descriptions of scenery are often most eloquent"
 In 1887 MT. Roosevelt wrote the Life of Thomas Hart Benton." and in the fol- lowing year "Gouverneur Norris" both duodecimo volumes. published in the "American Statesman series by Tough ton Mifflin & Co.,, at Boston. In the same year another duodecimo volume by him was published by the Putnams under the title Essays on Practical Politics." It was in the series, Questions of the Day" His most impeetant work appear ing that year. 1Sss however. was Ranch Life and the Hunting Trail" a folio vol ume published by the Century Company and illustrated by Frederick Remington. The Saturday Review said of the book:
 If 1t be true that ranching-that is. stock raising on the plains is. in its present form. doomed. and can hardly outlive the century, all the more grateful ought We to be to Mir. Theodore Roose- welt for having stereotyped it's essential featnreg and ad ff ir n attractive form as the present volume"
 The Century Company published c new popular edition of this work in 1896, an octave volume of 1s8 pages in cloth COW CTS. In the following year the first two volumes of the work, which has been

A BOYS SPLEEN REMOVED.
One of the Rarest Surgical Operations
 Performed In New York.
From the New York Times.

From the New York Times.
 The spleen was removed from Mich ael Vitele, years old, to Harlem Hospital recently. This is one of the rarest surgical operations, and it was said that there are only three other known cases of it's having been per- formed successfully. Many doctors called at the hospital to learn what they could of the matter. They are interested because little Is known def initely as to the functions of the spleen.
 The Vitele boy lives with his parents at IF East One Hundred and Eff teenth street. He was run over by milk wagon and was carried uncon- scious to the hospital in an ambulance. House Surgeon w. T. Bivings and pr. I,orman Haubold, professor of surgery at the Bellevue Medical College, made an incision five or six inches long in the child's stomach on the radial line and found the spleen had been torn from its connections with the other viscera. They cut it out and sewed up the wounds, and few hours later said he little one was doing well, and that there was every chance of his recov- cry.
 When the spleen of dog is removed the animal immediately develops a most voracious appetite, eating two or three times its own weight, but is never known to live longer than six months. If monkeys spleen is taken out the creature can live in tempera- ture of 90 degrees, but the minute it is either lowered or raised the animal dies.
 Two of the cases performed on hu- man beings were by Dr. Charles Nc Burney, one of the patients being a champion runner of the New York Athletic Club, who was operated on about five years ago, and one Rough hider, who was operated on about two years ago. The other operation was performed by Dr. Frank c. Hartley and Dr. Theodore Kuene about four years ago. Dr. Haubold has ordered that repeated examinations be made of the blood of the Vitele boy, in the hope Of discovering if the function of the spleen Is hematopeticol, as is gener- ally believed by physicians.

called perhaps Mir. Roosevelt's most sub- stantial literary achievement, the Win ming of the West" were issued by the Putnams. The whole work Is in five vol umes, octave. with maps. The third vol ume came out in 1894. Its subtitle Is "The Founding of the Trans-Alleghany Commonwealths," and it deals with the period from 17S4 to 179O. In the preface MT. Roosevelt says:
 ''The period covered in this volume in- cludes the seven years immediately suc- ceeding the close of the revolutionary war It was during these seven years that the Constitution was adopted, and actually went into effect, an event. if possible, even more momentus for the West than for the East. The time was one of vital importance to the whole na tion; alike to the people of the inland frontier and to those of the seaboard. The course of events during these years determined whether we should become a mighty nation or a mere snarl of weak and quarrelsome little commonwealths, with history as bloody and meaningless as that of the Spanish-American States"
 MT. Roosevelt's study of the Constitur ton, it will be observed from this, be- gan with its adoption and first workings and he obtained an early insight into the ldtent pOSSlD1ltleS or the pr1nClpleS or American expansion, which he was later to assist in working out In the fourth volume, issued in 1896, he was still en- gagged with this phase of American de- velopment. The volume is Louisiana and the Northwest, 1791 to 1S07."
 In 1891 MT. Roosevelt published his "New York" in the Historic Towns" series of Longmans, Green & Co. A new edition with a postscript was published in 1895. The work Is a volume of 2s2 pages duodecimo. MT. Roosevelt says of 1t and in it.
 Tt has been my aim less to collect new facts than to draw from the immense store house of facts already collected those which were of real importance in New York history, and to show their true meaning and their relations to one an- other; to sketch the workings of the towns life, social, commercial and po- litical. at successive periods, with their sharp transformations and contrasts, and to trace the causes which gradually changed a little Dutch trading hamlet into huge American city"
 "The Wilderness Hunter; An Account of the Big Game of the United States, and It's Chase With Horse Hound and Rifle" was published by the Putnams in 1893 in an octave volume of cloth covers This book Is illustrated by A. B. Frost, J. Carter Beard. Henry Sandman and Frederick Remington. and many of the illustrations are not ideal drawings. but studies of animals which MT. Roosevelt himself killed. It is described in the American catalogue as "a volume full of interesting gossip on sport. Mir Roose- welt describes the American wilderness and the heroes of frontier life-Boone, Crockett, Houston, Carson. He then pie lures life on ranch and the work of cattle raising

NoaO Comes Me Arz5hcsal HorseAasr.

IS elastic and strong-not so strong as real horsehair. but resembling it in some respects. It Is used for weaving various kinds of heavy fabrics.
 The principal objection to artificial silk from collodfon is that it is brittle. Fa- brics made of it, though glossy and beau- tiful at first, do not wear satisfactorily and their crinkles do not smooth them selves out like those of real silk As yet the fibre produced by the silkworm stands unrivalled by any imitation. The coun- terfeit horsehair. however. may prove it. self valuable.
 For some years past there has been on the market so-called artificial horse hair, made from the Spanish moss which grows upon trees in Louisiana Florida and other Southern states. It is gathered and treated chemically to remove the out CT coat of it's flores, which. after being thus handled, appear as long, black fila- ments Immense quantities of 1t are made up into mattresses and utilized aa stuf- fing for furniture.

INTERESTING CHAT
 WITH MRS. PEARY

Washington.-Mrs Robert B. Peary and her little daughter are the lionesses of the hour.
 At her mothers home in Twelfth street Northwest Mrs. Peary is besieged by visi- tors, all anxious to hear from her own lips about housekeeping in the ice fields.
 Among the American friends she sits, the picture of glowing health, and laughs at their efforts to make heroine of her.
 "The Arctic regions have not the ter TOTS for me they once had" she says. laughingiy. Only the inexperienced need fear snow and Ice.
 When I first went north eleven years ago I was very much disappointed to find so little cold weather. This sounds strange. but it Is a fact that I have suf- fered more from cold in Brooklyn than ever did while in search of the Pole.
 'The cold there, while intense, is dry. and really one does not suffer so much from 1t there as here. except on occa- sions''-
 A look as of some terrible memory came into the brown eyes of the explorers wife.
 She was probably thinking of the freez- ing accident which, before she reached her husband on the relief boat Wind ward, had robbed him of seven toes.

OMETHING new in the way of flores is artificial horsehair,"
 which is made of the same mate rial as the new kind of imitation

silk, derived from collodion
 The collodion, of a giuclilxe consistency, is passed through a glass tube that is provided with hundrdes of cocks. The spouts of the cocks are of glass, and each one is pierced by a small hole of about the diameter of thread of silk spun from cocoon. When the cocks are open ed the collodion issues from them in de- iicate threads, which. while yet in soft and ''tacky'' state, are wound tobether so as to form flores of the thickness of horsehairs.
 As the threads emerge from the cocks the alcohol and ether contained in the colodion is dissolved by the water through which they pass. After drying, the fibre
