according to the best and most up-to-
date method. | firmly believe that in
every way much better and more salts
factory results can be obtained from the
expenditure of the States highway money
under more complete and rigid supervi-
sion. IT Is utterly impossible for one man
to properly supervise the expenditure of
over $780, 900 distributed in small and
varying amounts in every town in the
State. In the expenditure of this money
SIC should aim at two important results:
First, to procure its expenditure in ac-
cordance with the best scientific meth
DDS ard secondly, to have these sections
Of permanent road 50 located that in the
end they will form continuous lines of
permanent highways. The only way to
bring about these results is to provide
more supervision for the work. The State
commissioner should give his entire time
to outlining the work and to its general
supervision and should be a saared Of
f1cer with reasonable allowance for Of
fee and clerical expenses There should
also be a supervisor for each county ap-
pointed by the State highway commits
sioner, with the approval Of the COVER
nor. The State highway fund should be

Every nerve is live wire
connecting some part of the
body with the brain. They are
SO numerous that if you pene-
tratc the skin with the point Of
needle you will touch a nerve
and receive a shock-pain it is
called. Aches and pains come
from a pressure, strain or in
jury to nerve the more prom
inent the nerve the greater the
pain. When the pain comes
from a large nerve it is called
Neuralgia
whether it be the facial nerves,
or the heart, stomach, sciatic
or other prominent nerve
branch. To stop pain, then,
you must relieve the strain or

Premier Refterates That He is Anxiaul
 to Retire.

to Retire.
 St. Petersburg. July 5.--Prenier Co., remykin and all members of the min lstry except M. 5tolypin, were present at today's sitting of the Council of the Empire. The tone of their remarks tended to confirm the Rechts surmfse that the fall of the ministry has been postponed on account of the refusal of the Constitutional Democrats to par tieipate in a coalition cabinet Pre- mier Goremykin today reiterated in private conversation the statement that he was anxious to retire.
 The Council of the Empire today con- firned the credentials of all its meln- bers, though there remains some Quess ton as to the validity of the election of NJ. Oushakoff on account of his hav- ing been convicted and exiIed to sibe- ria forty years ago for participation in the first plot to assassinate Alexander II. M. Oushakoff subsequently, was pardoned and changed his views, being now considered almost reactionary.
 The method the Government is adopt ing to counteraet the revolutionary spirit among the workmen is illustrated by proclamation issued today by the Prefect of Police of Moscow. While prohibiting under heavy penalty open air meetings, the carrying of arms and the melting of strikes. 1t orders em- ployers of manual artisans. such as bakers, carpenters and shoemakerg to introduce the ten hour day instead of the twelve hour day. not to require sun day labor and to improve the food and lodgings of employees under the same penalties as are invoked against the workmen.
 Police activity against the ''patriots.' who are trying to incite aantt-Jewlsh uprisings is reported from various sec- tions of the country. The local au- thorlties evidently have taken warning from the change in sentiment in officiai circles at St. Petersburg since public ity was given to the Bialystok events The policemen of Bialystok who were caught firing the revolver shots which were attributed to Jewish revolution ists, precipitating a renewal of the massacre there. have been dismissed from the service. He pleaded that he was drunk at the time and had no in- tention of provoking a renewal of the excesses.

ODIy Five Americans Have Been Seized
 With the Disease.

Manila, July 6.-The cholera situ- alton has improved. The report at 6 o'clock last night showed nineteen new eases since midnight of July 1, and ten deaths. The report for July f shows twenty eight cases and nineteen deaths. Two Americans, Robert Imobertz and - Hart are dead, but to date only i've Americans have been seized with the disease.
 Thus far cholera has not appeared in the American section of the city. The Americans who have been stricken live in the native sections of Manila The Bureau of Health has refused to permit the sale of food stuff that may have been liable to infection.
 The efforts of the doctors engaged in combating the disease show results in the decrease in the number of new eases reported. While the disease ,s stronger than the great epidemic of 1892 the authorities believe that they have the situation under control.

GRAND CHALLENGE CUP.
Capture by the Belgians the Cause O
 NFmch Comment.

Much Comment
 London. Judy e.--The capture of the grand challenge cup at Henley by the Belgian crew representing the Club Natique de Grand provoked much newspaper comment and searching of the British and foreign style of row ing, the majority of rowing men still apearing to pin their faith to the Eton swing as against the Belgian's short stroke and are inclined to think that had the Leanders been able to put on 8 representative to defend the cup the Belgians would have been defeated.
 The Daily Graphi thinks the incl dent is likely to accentuate the anti fireign agitation and expresses the hope that if any change is made it will be in the direction of provoking and endowing and extra national race at Henley and not for the exclusion of foreigners, adding that if any case the proposal of MT. Fletcher. the ox- ford coach. that no further entries for the Henl eyregatta of any American rowing club be accepted should be adopted it will be almost national calamity.
