Good Roads Convention.

OOOo NO0O0 SOOVSuDSuUu1 |
Tfmes-D Democrat April 30.
The Interstate Good Roads As
s~ociation meeting at Baton Rouge
came to an end yesterday, after
passing resolutions recommend
ing Federal aid in road building
and the utilization of tramp, vag-
rant and short-term convict
labor in the construction and
maintenance of the public roads
of the country. The convention
has done earnest work and has
accomplished much to increase
the interest in the movement for
good roads-one of the crying
needs of most sections of the
country. The cost of badly con-
structed and ill. kept roads in
this country has been demon
strated to be q heavy impost on
the inhabitants of the rural dis
tricts, farmers reaching rail-
road stations with their produce
at a cost which cuts down the
profit on their business almost
to the vanishing point. While
every attention has been paid to
the construction of steel high
ways, nothing of Importance has
been done in many sections to
better the system of feeding
those roads. Few of the farms
OF the country comparatively lie
along the railway tracks and
farmers must haul their produce
considerable distances to reach
freight stations, however close
those stations may be to each
other. In their entirety the dirt
roads of q country are of more
Importance than the railroads,
for it frequently costs more to
get q wagon load of freight to the
nearest station than it does to
send it across the continent
after it has reached the station.
The farmers and residents IF
the rural districts are, there
fore, most interested in the
movement, but it is nevertheless
one which affects every citizen of
the republic.
Since the movement first began
as the outcome of the bicycle
craze, it has grown materially,
and good roads have begun to
appear in sections where only
mud puddles in . track between
the trees were known before.
That permanent wagon roads
can be constructed with the
proper effort is amply demon.
strated. Some Of the best roads
now existing il Europe were
constructed by the conquering
iegions Of Rome, the greatest o.
all road builders. Their methods
are quite well known, and equally
IS good roads can be built now il
the proper effort Is made. Prop
er selection OF the material al
hand and proper drainage is all
that Is necessary to insure roads
opened to tranic in every con.
dition ct weather, and such
roads will py the cost of their
construction in . very short
time. The problem is one that
SHOULD receive the attention Of
county, State and national gov
ernmenta. End the plan outlined
b. the convention at Baton
Renee Il entitled to the closest
and most intelligent considers.

THE DANCE IN SPAIN.
1t Is an Essential Part Of the Life o
the People.

1t Ii an Essential Part of the Life of
the People.
Dancing is a universal instinct with
Spanish women. The great annual feria
at Seville is largely an orgy Of dancing.
As evening approaches everywhere one
begins to hear the sound Of castanets
and to see the gracious movements Of
the seguidilla, the universal Andalu-
sian dance.
But the fundamental instincts Of the
Spaniard for dancing and the serious
and profound way in which it express
es the temperament of the people are
perhaps shown by nothing else SO
much as by the existence Of religious
dancing In Spain. At the time Of St.
Thomas Of Villaneuva. bishop Of Va
lencia. it was customary to dance be-
fore the sacred elements in the church
es Of Seville, Toledo, Jerez and Valen-
cha. Religious dancing continued to be
common in Catalonia and In Roussillon
(the most Spanish Of the French prov
inces) up to the seventeenth century.
But a real and unique survival OF re-
ngious dancing II the dance Of the
seises in Seville cathedral. when the
choristers. wearing the same costume
40 they were 400 years ago. perform q
dance to the accompaniment OF casta
nets in the space between the high al
tar and the choir.

The Crop That Was Raised by Meis-

the crop That Was RAISED by Me10s
sonier's Clever Gardener.
Meissonier like many other celebri-
ties, had passon for gardening. His
gardener, an accomplished botanist
knew to perfection the seeds of every
plant. and his master had often tried
In vain to throw him off his guard.
This time have him." the artist re-
marked to a party of friends at the
dinner table. And he showed them q
packet containing the dried roe of a
herring. He then sent for the garden
er.
do you know this seed?" Meissonier
inquired.
The gardener carefully scrutinized
the grains.
"Why not:" he said at last. "They
are the seeds of the 'Polpus finsamus,'
very rare tropical plant"
"How long will they be coming up?"
Meissonier asked with chuckle of sup.
pressed eXultatiOn.
about a fortnight" was the reply.
Two weeks later the guests were
again assembled at Meissonier'G table,
and after dinner the gardener was an
nOunced.
IN. Meissonier," the man said, 1.-The
seed has just come up"
"Ah, you surprise me" the artist ex'
claimed as he rose and led the way
into the garden to examine the botan
ical phenomenon.
The gardener lifted glass shade and
disclosed to view a small bed will
three rows Of picked behring's heads
peeping out of the earth. Everybody
laughed. Meissonier dismissed thu
gardener on the spot, but took him or
again next day
