BROWNLOW ENDORSED.

Bill 1880.

In a recent communication to Con-
gresham Brownlow, Mr.. r. w. Rich
ardsoh, secretary of the National Good
Roads association, supports the
Brownlow bill in the following lam
guage:
Il have carefully read copy of
your bill, being H. R. 1859, creating
bureau of public roads in the depart
ment of agriculture, and providing for
system of national, state and local
cooperation in highway improvement.
/ desire to commend you for your in
itiative in this most important and
necessary public improvement. 1t
seems passing strange that the peo-
pie of the United States who are so
progressive in every other avenue of
commercial and industrial develop
ment should SO continuously neglect
to give even reasonable consideration
to the public roads. 1t is safe to es-
innate that more than 90 per cent. of
the area of the states of the union is
without improved roads, enduring al
most impassab bic mud in winter and in

MEN AND AFFAIRS.

Senator Patterson, of Colorado, was
territorial delegate from Colorado be-
fore its admission as state. Senator
Dubois was twice congressional dele
gate from Idaho, and Senator Elkins,
of West Virginia, was twice elected
territorial delegate from New Mexico.
Senator Cullom, of Illinois, served
three terms in the house of representa-
tives before his election as governor
and subsequent election to the SEN
ate. The two Kentucky senator's,
Blackburn and Williams, have served
in the house; so have the two senator's
from Maine, Frye and Hale. Senator
Burrows, of Michigan, had six and Sen
ator Nelson, of Minnesota, three terms
in the lower house before being elected
to the senate.
When the skeleton of the first gorilla
brought to Europe by Paul Du Chaillu
was on show in London the public was
admitted on presentation of cards.
The late duke of Argyle wrote to Du
Chaillu that on such and such day
''the duke of Argyle proposed to visit
the gorilla" Du Chaillu, who was Of
a very quick temper and refused to be
patronized, at once wrote back that
the gorilla was to be seen every day
between certain hours and that if the
duke of Argyle presented his card he
would no doubt be admitted like the

Constable, the eminent British paint

"That picture was painted by me. had
a notion that some of you didn't like
my work, and this is pretty convinc-

from their stupefaction the head car
penter was hidden to bring back the
picture. But Constable would not have
it. "Out it goes!" he said, grimly.

away. With the common latch, which
must slide up an incline, the catch cam
not be very deep unless the snout is
made very long, in which case it is still
more in the way and liable to be broken
off. With this one it may be as deep as
you want it.

slot An which it plays up and down is

nailed on. Two quarter-inch holes al

ter U, to pass vertically through, being
held there by gimlet-pointed screws

of this U is bent into knee, as shown
latch and hold it up as long as the gate
is open, if that is a week or more. When
it is shut the catch strikes that part
of the wire which entered below the
latch, pushes it from under and allows
it to drop into the catch, which, as
shown, is made of half inch rod, bent
at right angle, and extends only the
thickness of the latch from the post
round out with bark on-being shown
here as it allows a palmer view. The
latch itself is omitted in Fig. 2. No 9
soft wire will do if given two or three
turns around rod, like safety pin, as
shown at b.
We use old bed spring wire, heating
it a little to take out some of the tenn
per. 1t does not need the spiral turns.
The screws allow the wire to be loos-
ened and raised in case the gate says
and gets the latch out of line with the
catch. If the gate is properly hung this
arrangement will not be needed; but
it is difficult to hang one so it will not
sag. The same effect may be obtained
by other devices, which will be given if
desired.

RELIABLE. FARM GATE.
Although 1t Is a Splendid Device, Its
Inventor Has Concluded Not to
Patent 1t.

Herewith are some cuts illustrating q
latch which the writer invented and
has been using for several years, and
found very handy, as it is sure to catch
if given half a chance, and be sure to
hold. There is no long snout stretch
ing out to catch in your stirrup or har-
ness as you pass through with horse,
and wish to open only wide enough to
get through conveniently. 1t is the
very thing where you wish to put a
lever on top to enable one to open it
from a horse and ride through. If the
gate is so hung that it will fall shut,
you can throw it wide open, ride
through and go ahead with the full as
surance that it will be shut and secure
ly fastened before you are ten steps

MEN OF MEANS.

Henry Roso, the wealthy Cuban
planter, who, it is said, gave the great
er part of his fortune in aid of the Gu
ban revolutionists, is confined in New
York asylum for the insane. Mr..
Roso's estate, which at one time was in
the millions, has dwindled, it is said, to
$4,000.
Some of the present Astor millions
had their origin in the Bowery. Will
liam B. Astor's Uncle Henry, a cele-
brated butcher Of that famous thor
oughfare, left him his accommodations
of lifetime about 100000. This,
well invested in 1876 or thereabouts,
had much to do with building up the
vast Astor estate.
The man who has profted most by
the recent Wall street declines is gen.
orally supposed to be Harry We'll, the
St. Louis operator. Mr.. Wells win
nings are estimated to be between 3d.
100000 and 100000. Over a month

A LEXINGTON CLUB Co-OPERATES =
The Lexington Leader says:
1.-The Woman's Club has decided to
have department. of Public Interest
this year and Mrs. Jere Morton will be
the chairman, assisted by a large num-
Der of the most prominent members of
the club.
"The department. has decided to take
for its first work the continuation of the
project started by the Woman's Club of
Paris to secure line of trees from Lex
ing5on to Paris along the interurban
road. The club here proposes to see to
the matter for this half of the line, and
a committee of ladies will visit the
farmers all along the route to see to the
matter for this half of the line. The
requests will require only simple and
easy task of the land owners, and that
is to plant a double row of walnuts
along the traction line from Lexington
half way to Paris.
1.-The planting is easy as the waluuts
only have to be gathered and pressed
into the earth with foot or stick They
will then sprout and begin sending up
see 'lings which in the years to come will
make fine lines of noble forest trees, q
grand monument in a land growing
sterile and cold for want of the shade
trees which are its right by nature"

hint from officials to violators will cor

idea that they have a righG to Craze their
