Argument for Good Rosds.
From the Portland OreRonisn.

From the Portland Oregonisn.
After careful inquiry IL hss been
found that the average haul Of the
American farmer In getting his
produce to market or TO the nearest
shipping station Ii twelve miles, and
the average co-t Of hauling over the
common country roads Is IS cents
per ton per mile, or 81 per ton for .
tweive-mile haul. An estimate
places the total tons hauled at 300,-
000, 900 per year. On the estimate
of SO per ton for twelve miles this
would make the total cost OF getting
the surplus products of the farm TO
the local market or TO the railraad
no less than 500, 900, 900 figure
greater than the operating expenses
Of all the rzilrosds Of the United
States. If anything could make m
argument for good wagon roads this
statement surly will.

BREAKING NEWS TO MRS. Mckinley.
1t Is Most Gently Borne by DIR Rixey
She Bears it Bravely.

1t Is Most Gently Borne by DIR Rixey.
She Bears it Bravely.
Buffalo, Sept. 6.-Immediately
the President was cared for at the
Exposition Grounds-HOspital, D.rec-
tor w. l. Buchanan started for the
Milburn residence to forestall any
information that might reach there
by telephone or otherwi-e. Very
luckily, he was the first to arrive
with the information. The Niagara
Falls trip had tired Mrs. Mckinley,
and on returning to the Milburn
residence she took leave of her nieces
the Misses Barber, and the Presi-
dents niece, Miss Duncan, as well
as their hostess, Mrs. Milburn, and
went to her room to rest.
Mr.. Bunchanan broke the news as
gently as possible to the nieces, and
consulted with them and Mrs. Mil
burn as to the best course to pursue
in breaking the news to Mrs. Nc
Kinley. 1t was finally decided that
on her awakening, or shortly there
after, Mr.. Buchanan should break
the news to her, if, in the mean
time, her physician, DIR. Rixey, had
not arrived.
TAKES UP HER CROCHETING.
Mrs. Mckinley awoke from her
sleep at about 5:3G O'Clock. She
was feeling splendldly, she said, and
at once took up her crocheting,
which, as is well known, is one of
her favOrite diversions. Immediate
ly on Mr.. Buchanan's arrival at the
Milburn home he had telephone
communication there cut off, as he
decided this the wisest course to
pursue, lest Mrs. Mckinley, hearing
the continued ringing of the 'phone
bell, might inquire what it meant.
While the light of day remained
Mrs. Mckinley continued with hel
crocheting, keeping to her room
When it became dust, and the Presi
dent had not arrived, she began tt
feel anxious concerning him. 81
wonder why he does not come," she
asked one Of her nieces. There was
no clock in Mrs. McKinley's room
and when it was o'clock she haC
no idea it so late, and this is when
she began to feel anxious concerning
her husband, for he was to return
to Mr.. Milburn's house about
O'Clock.
DIR. RIXEY ARRIVES.
About O'Clock, DIR. Rixey ar
rived at the Milburn residence H,
had been driven hurriedly doWI

AS he came up Mr.. Buchanan wa
out on the lawn conversing with
reporter. at 1886, DR.. Rixey cam
out of the house, accompanied b.
Col. Webb Hayes, son of ex-Presi
dent Hayes, who is friend o
President McKinley's. They enter
ed carriage and returned to tn
exposition hospital. After Dr.
Rixey had gone, Director Genera
Buchanan said that the doctor ha'
broken the news in most gentl
manner to Mrs. Mckinley. He sal
she stood it bravely, though COZ
siderably affected.
If it was possible to bring him t
her, she wanted it done. DIR. Rixe
f assured her that the President coul
be brought safely from the expos
tion grounds, and when he left tn
house it was to complete all arrange
ments for the removal of the Pres

Miss Bosley Dead.

1t will be remembered that few
weeks since, Miss Bosley, of Danville,
KY, visited her friend, Miss Mabel
Hamilton, in this city. A party was
given in her honor and her visit was
expected to be delightful one. In a
few days she was taken i'll with typhoid
fever. Her friends were telegraphed,
and an uncle came, her mother being
ill with same disease. She was placed
on cot and taken to her home. Sab
bath evening telegram was received
in this city with the. sad message that
Fleecie had died at noon. Many hearts
are saddened in this city, that one so
young and beautiful, should be taken
from her loved ones. The mother
has recovered so that she is able to sit
up, but the death of her daughter will
be terrible shock. Miss Bosley was a
roommate of Miss Hamilton's while
they attended school at Oxford.

HARRISON GRANGE
Adopt Resolutions on the Death
Of Newell Marquis.

Resolutions adopted by Harrison
Grange, No. 37S, P. of H., Logan coun-
ty, Ohio, on the death of Brother
Newell Marquis, who departed this life
August Goth, 1901, in the 77th year OF
his age:
Whereas, Death, the silent messen-
ger, has again crossed our threshold
and taken from our Grange and So
ciety our worthy brother, Newell Mar
quis, it seems fitting that in his death,
we review his good deeds and worthy
acts. He became a member of the
Grange in 1874, and was an earnest
worker both in the subordinate and
Pomona Grange, always true to its
principles and faithful in attendance at
the meetings for over a quarter o. a
century. Therefore,
Resolved, That in the death of
Brother Marquis this Grange has lost a
useful and honored member, the family
a devoted father (the mother having
preceded himl and the community a
valuable citizen. Therefore,
Resolved. That the grief stricken
family have the heartfelt sympathy of
the Grange in their sad affliction, pray
ing that "He who is too wise to err,
and too good to be unkind," may be
their solace and comfort. Therefore,
Resolved, That the Grange set
apart a page of their minute book and
record thereon this memorial, and that
a copy of the same be forwarded to the
family our departed brother, and also
a copy sent to each of the Bellefon-
taine papers, and the American Grange
Bull etin for publication.

Escape Almost Miraculous.

Leonard Royer, a twelve year old
lad came peacefully riding bicycle
down Chillicothe avenue, Saturday
evening about dusk. Close behind
were horse and buggy. In the buggy
were a woman and several children.
In an instant there was crash, and as
we looked we saw the boy under the
horses hoofs, it seemed, with the
wheels of, the buggy on the bicycle,
The horse was stopped-the boy crawled
out from under the buggy, then the
horse went forward few steps and the
bicycle was lifted up. One spoke OF the
bicycle was broken but the boy was
not hurt although the horse and buggy
passed over him, but he will quicken
his pace when he sees the next buggy
coming

Springfield Ministers
Do Good Work.

Springfield, o., Aug. 25.-Agitation
against Sunday desecration, promoted
by the ministers of the city over a
period of several weeks, bore first
fruits today, balloon ascensions being
stopped by the police both at Snyder's
Park and Bechtel avenue.
Action was taken by the police on the
complaint of several prominent citi-
zens, and it is believed an effort will
be made to suppress all Sunday amuse-
ment feat ures at Spring Grove and Is
land Park, the police having jurisdic-
ton that far from the corporation line.

The First Presbyterian church was
well filed Sunday to hear an excellent
sermon by DIR. Kalb on Sunday OBJ
servance, and our only regret was that
every Christian, for it was only meant
for Christians, could not have heard it.
At the close of sermon more than $50
persons signed the petition asking that
the gates of the State Fair may be
closed on Sunday.
After it was known that DIR. Kalb
would preach on Sabbath Observance
a number of threatening letters were
received by him, but the writers
might have known that they would
make him all the stronger in his con-
victions.
