A domestic tragedy. based upon jeal-

occurred in Davis park. this morning.
The principals were Amid Fayed. his
wife Amelia. and the latter's friend.
Selim wheby, all syrians.
The Fayeds reside in little cottage
ut 213 Atwelrs avenue. The husband,
who is 35 years old, peddler and became
quite prominent last winter on account OF
a lawsuit begun which resulted in per-
jury proceedings which are still unde-
termined. ..-.-
Fayed has long been kns-vn as a
very jealous person. He rea lted even
the slightest attention to his wife OF
any OF their countrymen and there was
no surprise expressed today when
II was known that he had attempted to
kill her.
Among those whom she appears 10 have
looked upon favoraby was Selim Whehy.
At 5 O'Clock this morning while her
husband was still asleep, Mrs. Fayed
stole from the bed and quietly dressing
herself left the house.
About two hours later Fayed awoke
and missed his wife. He was but few
minutes In getting his lothes on and
starting on a searching expedition.
He soon got a tip as TO the direction
his wife had taken and whom she had
gone 10 meet.
AT s:so he reached Davis park and
caught sight OF his intended victims.
They were seated on a bench and so
earnestly engaged in a conversation that
they did not see Fayed until he was close
upon them.
DESPERATE STRUGGLE.
Wheby sized up the situation with such
celebrity and acted so quickly that he NO
doubt saved the husband from becoming
a murderer
Fayed had a revolver in his hand and
made dosh ~ his wife.
Whehy darted toward the irate husband
and seized the lstter's right wrist
There followed brief but desperate
struggle.
Fsyed fired one shot, the bullet Just
0Assing Wheby's head.
The muzzle OF the weapon was detected
as Wheby strove TO disarm the now fren.
zed husband.
Just then a second shot was fred and
Mrs Fayed fell.
The husband now desisted. his anger
was suddenly cooled lie no longer sought
for blood.

FAVOR OILED ROADS.
Crude OIL Better Than Water
for Laying Dust.

The use of oil on highways is steadily
increasing in favor. In Moline, H., oil
has been tried in place Of water as a
remedy for dust. and the results have
been most satisfactory. Bourbon, Ind,
is considering the idea Of sprinkling
the streets with oil The dust prob
lem there is a very serious one during
the summer months. for there are no
gravel beds from which to construct
roads. The towns Of California, which
have been doing more in this line than
those Of any other state, are testify
ing to the great benefits derived from
oil on the highways, by the continued
use they are making of this means Of
LAYING the dust. The board of super
visors of Sacramento are greatly in
favor of oiled roads. Three hundred
to $50 barrels Of oil mile are al times
necessary for the permanent packing
OF a sand road, but in many cases only
$50 barrels need be used. The roads
of California are, in most cases. of
sand, and the great benefits derived
from the consolidating of this sand
with the oil is continually testified to
by those in charge Of the highways
Not only is the oil better dust layer
and a more permanent one. but II
is also more economical than water.
inasmuch as the roads need to be
oiled but once or twice year. while
sprinkling with water must be done
every little while.

COUNTRY R0ADSIDES.
Keep Them Neat and clean, because
IL Pays 90 lie Tidy and Attrnc-
tive Anywhere.

For the last 80 years every one who
could eiiord TO take vacation has
been going to Europe for IL. Only in
the last few seasons have Americans
begun to discover that II Is fashion
able to stay in this country. OF
course everybody knew long ago that
this country had finer scenery, of
any sort mentionable, than can be
found IN Europe, but what was lack
ing was the endorsement Of fashion.
Now we have got that. 1t is now per-
fectly proper for any one, no matter
how rich he is, to spend his yaca-
tons in the land of the free"
Other signs are not wanting to
show The remarkable increase in out
door life. The sales of automobiles
indicates it, for one thing. The de-
mand for good roads, also connected
with bicycling and automobiling
rather than with hauling hay to mar
ket, testiies to the fact that people
are wanting to get out into the coun-
try to see things. All these move
ments, though they get their initia-
tive largely from the city people. are
of such great Importance to rural in
terests, and touch the farm life in
so many ways, that no thoughtful
farmer can disregard them.
The condition of the country roads
and roadsides not merely influences.
but very largely determines, the
course of vacation travel; and, to
certain extent, the courses of bust
ness traffic. A very hurried inquiry
after real estate in any neighbor-
hood will show how matters stand.
On a certain road where travel is
good, and where both the roadbed
and the roadside are kept up as they
ought TO be, farms will sell for % 10
50 per cent. more than on another
street mile away where the road is
a succession of ruts and mud-holes
and the roadside panorama of di-
lapidated outbuldings, tin-can dumps |
and poison ivy tangles.
So much has been said about good |
roads that il is not worth while to |
add anything TO that discussion now,
but attention should not be too much |
diverted from the protection. pre-
servation and improvement OF the
roadsides. The road master or com
missioner in great many cases can
do a great deal at little or no ex-
pense to make the roadsides more
agreeable. if only he is man OF
taste and has his mind on the mat
ter. Sign boards at the crossroads
should be supplied everywhere, OBJ
jectionable buildings can often be
removed, attractive trees can be pre-
served, convenient watering troughs
can be located, and dozens Of other
things done for the convenience and
satisfaction of the public. The les
son which we are just beginning to
learn is that such things pay. 1t
pays 20 be clean and tidy anywhere,
in public or in private.-F. A. Waugh,
