TWO SUITS AGAINST COUNTY
NEW METHOD OF ROAD WORKING
CAUSES ACTIONS FOR DAMAGES.
Plaintiffs AIIege That They Have Been
Damaged by the Widening of Highways
and Destruction of Shade Trees.

The improvement OF the public
roads of Terrell county, under the
system inaugurated for working the
highways some time ago, has resulted
in two suits for damages against the
county.
Attorneys M. G. Edwards and W. H.
Gurr have filed in the Office of the
clerk of the superior court suits
against the county for Mrs. Emma
York and j. W. Gurr On account of al
legged damage to them in working the
roads along their premises.
In each case 1t is alleged that the
road was laid out at a time when the
twenJy-foot road law was In force, and
was made only twenty feet wide; that
the road was recently made twenty
FIVE feet wide, and all of the increase was
taken from the land belonging to them
and none from the land OF adjoining
owners. It is also alleged that changes
were made in the road in front of their
dwelling houses which were very dam
aging to them, in that their shade
trees were destroyed and their yards
ditched; that this act on the part OF
the road authorities was without ex-
cuse and very damaging and annoying
to them, and of no benefit to the pub
lie.
They allege that these acts were
done over their protests at the time,
and without having their property con-
demned and damages assessed as re-
quired by law; that 1t was despotlc
exercise of authority, and that the road
superintendent and county both ought
to be required to pay the damages. The
damage asked is $4,000 in each case.
The results of these suits are await
ed with much interest throughout the
county.
The roads are being rapidly improved
under the present system OF working
them, and in little while no county
in the state will be able to show better
highways.

they showed by copying literally In
less than a month after the first of
the Fables of the Street" had been
printed George AIDES $18 a weekdays
were gone forever. To-day his an
nual income must approach six fig
ures.
He has said himself that he owes
his success primarily to the fact that
his father was the first resident of his
Indiana village to own a two-horse,
two-seated covered carriage. The own
ership of this carriage greatly en-
HANGED his standing with the neigh
bors. 1t also entailed upon him the
entertainment of most notables who
visited the place. No other carriage in
the town was so suitable as AIDE
seniors to show them around in, and
naturally AIDE junior generally went
with them. In this way he got ac-
quainted with visiting lecturers poll
ttcians, capitalists and what not, and
from them he heard the siren song
that lured him to Chicago, but not to
destruction.
AIDE now locks only two yearssof be-
ing 40. He is tall, rather lank keeps
his face smooth shaven, and often car
ries his hands in his pockets. When
he receives a guest in his room he
likes to take his coat off and roll his
shirt sleeves up to a point above his
elbows as he talks.
He doesn't put on Jugs, and in many
ways he is naive and ingenious. He is
afraid of audiences, too. and he has
never seen a first night performance
of any of his own plays.
Once he ventured on the stage Of a
theater in which one of his pieces was
being performed. It was while, be-
tween two scenes, a dark change"
was being made. At this theater there
is row of electric lights, just in front
of the stage, which so blinds the eyes
OF those in the audience that they
can't see what is going on behind the
lights, so that no curtain is rung down
for the change. Taking a look at the
audience at such time is lots nicer
than gazing through a peep hole, and
one night AIDE tried it. He had a
mighty good time, too, hunting up the
interested auditors in the sea of faces
before him, which he could see per-
fectly though himself unseen. Later
ne said he wished IL hadn't been so
good time. Anyway, he got so thor
oughly interested that he heard never
a word of the whispered warnings
that 1t was time to turn on the light.
When the light went up he was
standing almost in the center of the
stage looking intently out upon the
auditorium. There was a burst Of
applause, also a much discounted
dramatic author who rushed precipit-
ably into the wings.
Mr.. AIDE has a farm near South
Bend where he spends his summers.
Before he was in the newspaper line
ne used to write ads for a certain
