AUTO ROUTES
TO The SHORE
New Course After Leaving AM
boy Bridge Going South The
Course to Atlantic City.

A new Amboy bridge route to the
coast has been found and was COM
municated to the New York Herald
yesterday. A few days ago the Her
aid published an article telling of the
disappointment of ~autoists over the
Amboy bridge route because OF the
bad stretch of road between Morgan
and Keyport. The Herald article
yesterday is as follows:
Automobiles who travel from
New York to the Jersey coast re-
sorts will be pleased to learn that
they may avail themselves of the
Z short route via the new Amboy
bridge without encountering the bad
stretch of road between the bridge
and Keyport.
when leaving the bridge going
south automobiles should pass
through Stevens venue to Border
town avenue" directs this corre-
spondent, land instead of following
the trolley track where 1t leaves Bor-
dentown avenue should continue
straight ahead for about another
mile to where this road crosses what
is known as the Cheesequake road,
turning to the left and south at this
point. This is a good hard gravel
road in splendid condition, and Is
only about three miles longer than
the road by way of C~heesequake
creek and Laurance Harbor to Key
port.
"All the road maps designate the
latter road as the only way to reach
points south of South Amboy, while
the main highway is the n describ-
ed above and passing through the
town of Cheesequake."-
TRENTON, July 9.-State Road
Commissioner N. G. Hutchinson, OF
this city, has just placed his seal OF
approval on the plans for the inn
provement of the Hammonton and
Atsion highway, an important link In
the ,lne of improved roads to Atlantic
City. This announcement will be
hailed with delight by hundreds of
automobilists from all parts of the
state and from other states, as well
as by the adjacent property owners
and others who have occasion to use
this stretch OF road.
Automobilists who go to Atlantic
City by way of Trenton now lave
to go around by Camden to find good
roads. Improved roads are to be
found from Trenton south, through
Mount Holly, to Indian Hills. Be
ginning at the latter point there is
a gap with no good roads until Ham
monitor is reached.

TO RECOVER FUNDS
FROM Mr.. BURSUM.

Attorney General Reid Announces In
tention to Bring Civil Suit.
Albuquerque Journal, Sept. "a
Attorney General w. c. Reid, who
was present with Governor Hagerman
Saturday at the hearing in Socorro
of the charges against Sheriff Lean
dro Baca of Socorro county, passed
through Albuquerque yesterday on
his way to Santa Fe.
The cordial reception given to
Governor Hagerman in Socorro yes
terday,'' said Captain Reid, ''was very
pleasing to him and mis- friends. 1t
shows conclusively that the people
appreciate his efforts to give them a
clean administration, and they are
with him in the fight against graft
Discussing the recent failure of the
grand jury in Santa Fe to return an
indictment against H. o. Bursum and
others in connection with the expo
sures made by the investigation of
penitentiary affairs, Captain Reid ex-
pressed very frankly his opinion of
the action of the grand jury, and in
institute civil proceedings against
Mr.. Bursum to recover money held
to be due the Territory from him as
superintendent of the penitentiary.
''To people acquainted with condi-
tions in parts of this Territory, the
failure of the grand jurb to find an
indictment was not surprising" said
the attorney general. tIt certainly
does not indicate the innocence of
any of the accused. In the face of
facts showing thousands of dollars
unaccounted for by Mr.. Bursum, the
failure of the grand jury to indict in
dicates a condition in the courts OF
Justice more serious to the people
than the theft of a few thousand dol
lars
"The Territory, by the report OF
the Colorado Trust Company, has
pointed out to Mr.. Bursum his short
age. He pretends not to see it, and
as yet has made no offer to reimburse
the Territory. This makes it neces-
sary for me, as attorney general, to
commence an action against him to
recover the amount which we know
to be due from him.

FIRST DAY OF THE FAIR.

Races and Ball Game the Leading At
| fractions More to Follow.
| This was the first day of the Ros
well Fair, and although the morning
opened dark and gloomy, with driz
zling rain, the clouds were not long
| in rolling away, and the spirits OF
the managers of the Association rose
accordingly. The dark morning was
a dampener on the first day, however
because it caused exhibitors to hold
back in the matter of bringing in
their fine products, so that at noon
there were less than a dozen individ-
ual exhibits on the entire grounds. 1t
was predicted by Col. A. E. Page, who
is in charge of the Floral Hall, that
many more would come in this after
noon, and that the hall would pre-
sent an attractive appearance.
Among the exhibitors who came
out in spite of the bad weather. were
Mr.. Pickering with a fine display of
many varieties of apples. Mr.. Santhe-
son, of the Alameda Greenhouse, had
a fine lot of flowers. Mr.. Wilson. the
gardener, occupied a large section
with mis- display of fruits, vegetables
and grains. There were some tempt
ing displays of canned goods, pre-
serves, ETC., in the culinary depart
ment. No live stock had been brought
in UP to noon today
The afternoon was an interesting
one to the few people who went out,
in spite of the Insignificant agricultu-
raj and fruit exhibition. A ball game
between the Military Institute and
Roswell town teams was on the pro-
gram for 2:30, and there were four
| races, as follows:

lin Barber Shop Burned.
The grocery store and meat mar
ket of u. F. Deem and the McLaugh-

completely destroyed by fire at 4:30
o'clock this morning. The fire broke
out in the Deem building and spread
to the barber shop before it could
be gotten under control. A large ho-
tel building was saved only after
hard work. The cause of the fire is
unknown. The Deem building was in
sured to the amount of $500 and the
contents to the amount of $500, but
the loss exceeded these amounts by
$500. Nothing in the Deem store was
saved. The contents of the barber
shop were saved, and the building
was fully insured. Mr.. Deem moved
from Roswell to Hagerman and set
up the store and market only a few
