gineer, but the force is managed and
the method Of working is determined
by the superintendent. The gang IL
supplied with complete outfit Of ma
chimes for making dirt roads and, in ad-
dition TO surfacing, does such grading
as may be necessary. 1t is estimated
that In five years more all the roads In
the county will be Of easy grade and
properly surfaced. 1t has been found
by experience that mixture Of clay
and sand makes remarkably hard
surface, almost impervlous to water.
while giving sure foothold for the
horses.
The method pursued in working the
roads is that, where the foundation is
sandy. clay is hauled in, and vice versa;
where the foundation Is clay, sand IS
added. The roads are crowned so as to
shed the water into the side trenches
No curbing is used, but on the steep
inclines half round sewer pipes are
sometimes placed to prevent the side
drain from washing out. The height
of the crown is determined by the su-
perlntendent, who is governed by the
grade.
There are in the county about 1876
miles of public roads. The cost OF
maintaining the gangis about $4,000
a year, which includes $4,000 paid to
the city OF Macon for her interest in
the convicts.

the largest sum ever appropriated at

Schenectady county, n. Y, has sue
cessfully tried the experiment of plae-
Ing the prisoners confined In the coun.
y jail upon the roads In working out a
contract for road improvement which
was awarded to the county. One re-
suit Of this is the avoidance of Sche-
nectady county by tramps.
That Florida viii soon be among the
states that lead In the mileage of good
roads is indicated by the fact that
there is now over 100000 available in
the internal improvement fund and
that there is reserve of 5000 900
acres OF swamp and overfiowed lands,
worth from 81 10 S. an acre. BY a re-
cent act OF the legislature this was
made available for the building OF
hard roads.-Good Roads Magazine.

The subject of good roads cannot be
much longer kept in the background
says Farm and Ranch Trolley cars

phones and free rural mail delivery arc
good enough In their way. but paved
country roads are necessary TO the well
being and happiness of the rural dis
tricts. When this Is accomplished then
will the best elements Of city life seek

from the evils OF city life to evade the
heavy taxation necessary TO support
urban peculation, and TO enjoy the free.

and din Of the city streets.

Contents Saved. Partial
Insurance.

1t is with the greatest regret that
the citizens of Las Vegas, this morn
ing, received the news of the burn
ing OF Ell Por, enir, margarine Rom
eros beautiful resort sixteen miles
away in the mountains. The fire orr
ginated on the roof. about a chimney.
that was evidently effective. Every
effort was made to get water upon
the rapidly increasing flame, but only
an inch and a half hose was available,
and this proved utterly useless. All
the people in the hotel and near by
endeavored to save the con-
tents, when it was found the building
must go. Willing workers removed
the valuable piano, but so quickly did
the flames make Roadway on the in
fiamable structure of frame and logs,
that almost nothing else could be ia
ken out. The building is a total loss.
The total amount of insurance car
ried was $4,100, $4,000 in one of Mr..
Henry's companies and $1,000 in
CoiipdiiiSo represented ny Wi. 3
The building and contents could not be
replaced for $4,000. Coming just at
the opening of the summer season
when accommodations had been eD-
gagged by many, and the whole house
had been put in order to receive
guests. the fire is particularly disas,
strous.
Mr.. Romero had left Ell Porvenir at
six o'clock to come to the city. The
fire broke out at seven. At the Hot
Springs Mr.. Romero was informed OF
the loss of his hotel and hastened
back to verify the alarming report
Porvenir resort was one Of the
most popular in New Mexico. The
situation is one of ideal beauty. 1t is
feared that it will be impossible to
receive guests there this summer
though that the mountain house will
be rebuilt is a certainty.

to observe her coming unostentati-
ously back. 1t was soon learned that
a sixty-foot bridge, some three miles
south was ablaze. No. 2 had been
stopped on the wrong side of the
bridge. The passengers had ordered
a sumptuous dinner at the Castaneda,
and no doubt there is wailing and
gnashing of teeth, down the line. A
number of passengers were, however,
brought to the city in hacks.
AS soon as No. l returned, all the
