The aged Francis Joseph, Emperor, never suf-
fers from headaches. He smokes two light cigars
a day, although he formerly consumed from ten
to fifteen strong Virginia ones each day. He
drinks daily two glasses of beer and some light
wine, and takes good care of his health by neces-
sary exercise. Francis Joseph has outlived many
OF the prophets who for the last quarter of a
century have been so freely predicting how the
Austriap-Ilungarian Empire will be dissolved
when the aged ruler shall have passed away.

In some Of the "down State papers attention
is called to the fact that taxes are lower in Della
ware than they are in our neighboring State Of
Maryland. But even if this is true, it should
not be used TO encourage a raid on the State
treasury. There was disposition enough at the
last Legislature to spend money, and if encour-
agement is given that we should increase our ex-
penditures simply because we have no State tax
lavishness will run riot The idea at Dover ap-
parently was to raise salaries all round. Increas-
ing taxes simply to advance salaries OF officials
is poor policy, The last year was anything but
a prosperous one for the rural sections OF Della
ware, and advance in State expenses under such
conditions will surely be resented.

Road improvement already has begun in Sus-
sex county, and there is disposition there to
better the highways. A special tax has been
levied to shell the State road from Milford to-
wards Georgetown 1t has been a question OF
whether shelling or caying this road would fulfil
the requirements OF the law. In improving the
road from Milford to Frederica the clay process
was used and State aid was secured. Although
the shell roads find favor, the Milford Chronicle
thinks that at a little more cost crushed stone
could be employed and such highway would last
ten times as long The stone roads would be
cheaper in the end.

Judge Charlie Finn celebrated
the 21st anniversary of his arrl-
val in Winslow Wednesday and
being in reminiscent mood gave
quite an interesting history OF
early days. The Judge said that
he was forced to come here by
adverse circumstances. He had
been in business in Coolidge,
which was then the division
between here and Albuquerque.
A fire had wiped out the town
and left him practically nothing
but a motage on some lots IN
Winslow, so he come here and
went into business in a building
which stood where the drug store
now stands on Front street, after
wards building the store that
now stands on the lot. The only
house off of Front street was the
one now occupied by Charlie
Woods. There were many tent
houses and every store had a
saloon attachment. Everything
wide open and money plentiful
and of course there were lots OF
gun play resulting in many fatall-
ties. There being plenty ofmoney
every one was correspondlngly
prosperous. The old timers are be-
coming scarce about the only ones
of the original High Binders
being: Messers. Breed, Demarest,
Henry Heide and Bill Daze, the
Others having mostly joined the
great procession and gone to
their reward. What was then
an oasis in the great American
desert has become prosperous
and enlighted community.
