PUERTO PLATA, Santo Domingo
March 30.-If the West Indian tourist
bent upon a study of political and scio-
logical conditions IN Santo Domingo
were 20 confine his researches 20 this
would inevitably conclude that the
Dominican republic is grieyously mis-
understood and its thrift and intelIi-
gcnce generally underestimate.
Here is a delightful little community
which has had the saving grace 10 elect

terms an American citizen-a Boston

cipality which fosters common schools
and kindergartens, keeps its streets as
clean as New England housewife S

ance of good water works, sanitary Or
thodoXy, churches and libraries, and
which has so sublime faith in the
honesty OF its citizens that it goes forth
to the gayeties of the Mardf Gras bal
masque and dances the fandango all
night without taking the trouble to lock

has marked as this latter day outpost
of his militant Monroe Doctrine.
1t is the coast terminal of the Puerto
Plata and Santiago railroad. one of the
two railways now in operation on the
island. Financed and constructed orig
inally by the American capitalists con-
stituting the Santo Domingo Improve
ment Company, this road is one of the
chief factors IN the controversy which
has led to the convention under which

Our MdCdddm Streets.

The expert road builders scnta
out by the agricultural department
of the U. S. government have COM
pletcd 1893 lineal feet 40 feet wide of
most excellent macadam road, begin
ming at the brick stable on Bachelor
street to Main street thence east on
Main street to the new Baptist
church. This work is an object
lesson for the town and county to
be. governed by in the future. Mr..
A. N. Johnson highway engineer
and Mr.. j. II. Dodge experts have
been in charge of the work. They
have done an excellent piece of
work and it will prove most last
ing benefit to the city, and the
knowledge gained by this practical
demonstration will also prove to be
a great advantage to the road build
ers of our city and county. To
read how to build a macadam
road and to see it done are two very
different things, for when we read
OF it, we can form a very good idea
of how it can be done, but we lack
the practical side, which is given
us in the demonstration, when we
see it done. The completion of
this work, in the most improved
and modern manner of road build
ing is of great Importance to this
county, and we hope our road
builders will profit by the lesson
taught by these experts. There is
much to be considered in road
building, first, the proper grade to
be given, second, the selection of
proper material, 3D., the proper
manner of putting on the material
to make a good, substantial, lasting
and permanent road, such as will
not wear by weather or travel, all
of this can be done, if the example
set by these experts be faithfully
followed.

ALL DISpENSARIES MUST CON-
PLY WITH THE LAW.
State Board issues Orders
About Failure to Observe
Regulations.

Columbia, July 1S.-The State
board of directors Of tho dispensary
today passed a strong resolution
calling upon the county boards of
control 70 enforce the law. The
resolution cites that there is COM
plant as to the neglect of the re-
quest books and of drinking on the
premises in many counties and the
county boards are informed that
failure to comply with the law is
the reason for removal of the dis
pensers. The county board can
also be removed for cause and the
State board calls attention to that
section of the law covering the use
of request books and drinking on
the premises.
Recently dispenser in Claren-
don county was presented by the
grand jury for failure to use the
books and a member of the State
board said today that this feature
of the law would be looked into
very closely from now on.
The only other important business
done by the board was in regard to
the special prices on case goods.
Heretofore the dispenser would often
make special price on certain
Zines of goods by the case, the OBJ
ject being to get some of the bust
ness that had been going out of the
State. 1t was found, however, that
there were several ways to violate
the law under this plan and the
special price will be discontinued.
There is an exception in regard to
clubs, but the requests must come
in through the county dispenser
and signed by the officers of tht
club.

Special to Times Republican.
Iowa City, May 15.-Saturday's dual
meet with Ames, which the State UNI
versity lost by eleven points, mas not
only failed to clarity the track situa-
ton in the state. but has further COM
plicated it. 1t has been currently be-
ieved that the winner of that dual
meet would be the winner In the state
meet Also that Ames would win
handily by forty to sixty points. Any
such decisive score would have remov-
ed Iowa from the running and in GER
tain quarters it will be believed that
the score made by Watson's agricul-
turists will insure them the premier
ship in the state this year, yet those
who are on the inside of the state
situation know that Watson was far
from happy over the showing made
by his team.

close to the last hurdles.
Grinnell, contrary to general expec-
tation will be 81 factor to be reckoned
with. F'irsts in the two hurdles and
the discus will give her points enough
to start the state meet among the Big
Three, which this year will consist Of
Ames, Iowa and Grinnell. Obliged to
give up the five hrsts that Watson
scored against Iowa In the two dashes,
the two hurdles and the discus and
content to accept seconds or thirds In
all five events, Ames Is not going to
class especially strong as compared
with either Iowa, Grinnell or Normal.
There is little doubt but that this
years state meet will be the most In
teresting in the history OF the inter-
scholastic association.

GrinneII Won From Cornell.
Special to Times-Repubiican:

Grinnell, May 15.--The hardest
fought game of the season in base ball
took place on Ward field on Saturday
afternoon between Cornell College Of
Mt Vernon and Iowa College Of Grin
nell. The ground was very sticky and
there was some rain during the game
which made playing hard and account
ed partly for some of the few errors
that We're made. The batteries were so
well balanced that it was a toss up
which was the better, and the teams
were better matched all around than
any playing together here this season.
The fact that the game was fast from
the first and that the visitors did not
score until the third inning when they
made one run and that the home team
did not score until the third inning
when they made one run and that the
home team did not score until the
eighth inning and required the last
half of the eleventh to win their other
two scores, tells the story we'll. Quite
largely it was one. two, three game
with the pitchers honors even. There
was some discussion of umpires de.
cisions, by the visitors. but on the
whole it was a clean game, sportman-
like and Satisfactory. The lineup was
as follows:
Cornell Moore, first base; Miller,
center field; Hayes, left field: Raglan,
pitch; Olsen, right field; McQuilken.
third base; Henderson, second base;
Wheeler, catch; Bryant. short-stop.
Grinnell valerius. catch; Morgan,
second base; Davis, center field; Bar
Der, third base; Smithson, pitch; Wild
