The people of Wisconsin are pro-
gressive and up-tO date in many
ways, but if they understood the
real value of modern improved high
ways they would join IN pushing
this question to the front IN advance
of some of the other So called issues
of the day. The country roads in
this state are probably just about
the average-good when the wealth
er is good, and bad when the wealth
er condition are unfavorable. The
time is coming, however, and ap-
parently is near at hand, when
there will be a universal demand
for general improvement Of Wiscon-
SIN roads, and the people will not
be satisfied until this is accomplish
ed. One of the first steps neces-
sary to attain this end will be GER
tain desired changes in the state
laws, some of which are already
pending. Eventually it is to be
hoped a permanent good roads de-
partmtnt will be esta blished in con-
nection with the regular state
government, to have charge oyer
road improvements and mainten-
ance. When this is done WiscOn-
sin will begin to forge ahead as
good roads state, and when it gains
this reputation it will be of value to
the people in more ways than one.

A Convict Ship.

Readers of The Convict Ship will
be Interested to know that until re-
Gently one of these craft was in ex-
istence. The ship a few years ago
was moored in the Thames, between
Plackfriars and Westminster bridges.
It had taken to Australia in its time
$4,000 poor wretches exiled from
England for various offenses. The
vessel sank i'll Sydney harbor, but was
later raised and sailed to England.
1t had p cells, black hole and a
chapel. The ship began its voyages
to Australia in 1887 and sailed 81
years, in which time it carried to i'm
prisoament and exile 1852 men and
2O.319 women.

HIS DUTY AS HE SAW IT.

The widow of village grocer was

when Farmer Giles entered the es-
Enlistment, according to the Roches-

Tombstone Refuge for Cat.

One day this week, when the snow
was rapidly turning to slush, and
when st. Pauls chuTchyard was be-
reft of its wonted groups of luncheon.
hour strollers, one of the churchyard
cats, an unusually soiled and wild
looking specimen, vas seen perched
upon the narrow top of a weather
worn headstone. The space was I'M
comfortably narrow, and, to keep
from falling, the animal was forced
to clutch increasingly. But the stone
was dry, the churchyard walks were
flooded, so the cat stayed. a soiled bit
of white and black fur, suspicious
but apparently resigned.-New York

Value of the Thumb.

Solomon says thumbs up because
the thumb is said to be worth fully
one-third the entire value Of the hand.
The different fingers are far from
having all the same value before the
eyes of the law Much of the i'm
portance among them is the thumb.
for without it the hand no longer is q
pincers but merely a claw. The
French court allows in damages 15 to
35 per cent value for the right and
ten to Is per cent. for the left thumb.
The Austrian schedule gives from Is
per cent. for the left to SIS per cent.
for the right. In Germany 20 to %
per cent, and even as high az 1873 per
cent, has been awarded. The per-
csntage 10 based on 100 as the total
value Of the hand, industriousIy
speaking. before the accident.

Delivered the Goods.

The late Senator NJ S. Quay, of
Pennsylvania, kept all the letters his
constituents wrote TO him asking for
favors, says the Saturday Evening
Post. He had stacks Of them when
his last great fight for the senate came
along. Then he sorted out the letters,
eliminating those frona people who
were dead and or the back of each
letter wrote: Dear John or Bill:
Do you remember when you wrote me
this letter and do you remember that
/ did what you asked? | want your
help now in my fight for the senate.
Can I have it?" The politicians in
Pennsylvania say those letters mailed
to the original senders with cuay's re-
quest on the backs of them. had as
much as any one thing to do with
Quay's winning his fight.

COTTON NUYURS

New York, November 9.-iThe cotton
market opened steady at unchanged
prices to a decline of 10 points, d
losses being due to lower LlVerpooi
cables. During the early session prices
rallied on covering by shorts who
were probably Influenced by a state
ment from the December bull clique
who claimed hat the cotton repre-
sented by December contracts was
needed for shipment on foreign orders
and by bullish weekend figures. De-
cember advanced from 1892 to 10.44
and during the middle of the morning
prices ranged about net unchanged to
two points higher. The market clos
