THIRTY MILLIONS FOR ROADS.

Immense Outlay for Three Thousand
 Miles of ThoTough1are.
 Washington Herald.
 Lewis G. Friel, of New York, who is interested in the manufacture of motor cars, and who Is in this city on busi- ness, is at the New Willard. Speaking of road Improvements, Mir. Friel said that if good roads were provided so the farmers could have the benefit of easy hauls to market and to shipping points, the union of many such roads would make the highway for pleasure also.
 ''The State of New York is going in- to the matter in systematic way" continued Mir. Friel. 'Tt is to have a good roads cornnnIsson of three mem bers with sufficient salary to attract efficient men. It is proposed to build s,332 miles of main State roads at an outlay of $so,000, ,0oo. An additional amount of the same size is to be used

in cooperation with counties, dollar being appropriated for dollar in such work. In other words, it Is planned to spend $90.000,000 under systematic plans for the improvement of the high ways of the State. Some of the roads are to be trunk lines. Others are to be feeder to the main stem. While the figures are large, they do not begin to represent the loss which has been borne by farmers in many years be- cause of the expense of hauling the crops to market or tat railroad stations.
 .'The outlay will prove blessing. not only to the people of the present gen. eration, but to those of coming years. Once built on scientific plans and with honesty of construction, the expense of maintenance and repair need not be 8 serious drain. If othef States were to take up the subject in the same spirit as that which New York mant- fests, the hope of highway across the country would be realized without any consideration of the constitutional power of the Government to construct roads of the sort and without any fear on the part of the States of the en- croachments of the central authority.
 'No one doubts that roads will come in time The New York interests may hasten the consideration of the subject by the Legislatures of other Common wealths."

FELL IN LOVE WITH PICTURES New Orleans Man WedS
 English Girl. SHE WAS PEAc0CK'S MODEL American Reformed Gamblers Are
 In-London. Their Remarkable Romance of Crime. Attracts Much Interest--rhe Weeks News of the Eng-
 Iish Work.
SHE WAS PEAcocK's MODEL
BY ROBERT RRoDERrCTx.

London, Aug. s.--(Special) )-Earold Abbott Titcomb of New Orleans has given severe setback to the general idea that Americans are people without any taste for romance. Some time ago Mir. Tftcomb went to the Tate Gallery and was so struck with the portrait called "the sisters that he promptly fell in love with the original His first step was to write to the artist, and ask if he would sell him a copy of it.
 Mir. Peacock replied that he would give him the name of an artist friend, who would execute the copy, and in this way they got into correspondence, and then to personal interviews.
 Then at Mir. Peacock's studio Mir. Titcomb met the original of the paint ing, Miss Ethel BrignaIl. who happens to be the sister-in-law of the artist.
 When the picture was painted Miss Ethel Brignall was about sixteen. and she is little changed in appearance sine e except that she wears her hair up"
 She was also the model for MT. Pea cocks painting "EtheI", a charming schoolgirl study a year or two before, which was bought by the Chantrey Request.
 Mfr. TItcomb not only possessed him. self of the copy of the younger figure in '"rhe Sisters, he promptly showed a 0E1tF1 tQ secure tHS oIAk1nal, and he became suitor for the 1ady's hand in due form.
 On Wednesday Beddington Church was full, for the family are we'll known at Wellington, where Miss Brignall resided with her widowed mother at Withdean, Blenheimgartens one of the Queen Anne villa colonies or the Staf- ford-road. The bride. in white. with dregs of old lace and orange blossoms, was given away by her brother. Albert Erignall. She was attended by Master Haydon Peacock, her little nephew. who wore 6 pages dress of white satin of the Stuart period. The artists little nve year old son, who was the brides page, appears in the well-known pie xure ~Out of Everywhere Into Here representing baby sitting on the edge of a precipice-
 A necklace of pearls, valued at $5,- 900. was the bridegroom's present to fha bride.

NEW TARIFF
 FOR FRANCE It Is Advocated by Busi-
 ness Men. CONCESSIONS TO CANADA Chloroform Discovered to Be Remedy for Sunstroke. White Cross to Protect People Against Food Frauds win Hold Con-
 venson in Geneva
 Gossip of Paris.
BY HENRY nuRoIs.

Paris, Aug. s.--A new tariff is be- ing agitated for the business world of France.
 The question has been made acute by the specialization by the French Sem ate of the Franco-Canadian commer- cial treaty of last September. The con- cassions made to Canada are vigorous ly opposed by powerful French agri- cultural interests
 A reduction was made on the import dutu on agricultural machinery of from fifteen francs to nine francs per hun dred kilogrames. The importation di- rect from Canada is very small: but about s6, 100000 worth of American ma- chimes are imported into France and they could be given an ostensisle Ca- nadian origin to get the benefit of the reduced duty.
 It is reported here that the Interna- tional Harvester Company, the reaper trust, is founding colossal factories in Canada to secure the benefit of the concessions accorded by France. In view of the most favored nation clause which figures in nearly all commercial treates the proposal now most strongly advocated in France is to frame an extremely detailed tariff. enabling the Government to determine very strictly the produce of the coun- try of origin that Is to be favored.
 The loop holes in Frances protectives tariff of 1892 are seen to be much too wide It Is not proposed to make the new tariff more highly protective, but to have the protection more closely ap- piled.

suFragette in Court.

A little skirmish in the women's war for the vote was fought yesterday in the Seine Correctional Court.
 Madame Madeleine Lepelletier, doc tor of medicine, was the champion. At the mS2icipal elections last May she presented herself at the polling sta- ton of her district and said that she came to vote. On being refused she took stone from her pocket and threw 1t through the window. To defend her conduct she came to court surrounded by a cohort of young and charming women. She said: T broke the win dow because I wished to symbolic the women's agitation, to make the movement concrete"
 The Judge-By breaking windows7
 Madame peiletier-Certainly It was the act of teacher. wished to teach women the A c of revolt.
 The Judge-But you should address yourself to the legislators.
 Madame Lepelletier-But We are not. voters. They listen politely but with out interest. They are charming and platonic.
 The judge cut the discussion short by fining the lady s3.
 Remedy for Sunstrolxe.
 French physicians have found a new and--they claim-absolutely infallible remedy for sunstroke.
 It is chloroform.
 They state that the gravity of a case of sunstroke Is proportionate to the amount of fatigue the patien has un- dergone immediately preceding the at- tack. In it's worst form there is syn cope accompanied by intense cerebral disturbances liable to result fin death.
 The therapeutics of the malady have long been obscure. The commonest remedies have been bleeding, cold ap- pIications, etc The new treatment Is simply chloroform given by way of in- halation or swallowed in a dIlution Of water. The reason for this benencient action of chloroform in cases of sun stroke may be given in few words.
 The syncope, the collapse, the faint. ing, which are the most serious states are not due as has been thought to momentary paralysis of certain nerve ganglia, or to any exceptional rigidity of the cardiac muscles; they are due solely to the exceptional work the heart has been called upon to do. The heat has accelerated the normal rythn of the heart. It has overworked- 1t. The veritable paralysis which ensues is the logical consequence of this over exertion-
 On the other hand the very fatigua of the cardiac muscles permits the cfr- culatory system to be booded with yer. itable organic poisons, which ultimate ly come in contact with the cellular elements of the brain, irritate them and produce. by reflex action, a con vulsive condition of the cerebral cen. tres.
 Now chloroform caIms the movement of the heart, diminishes the excitabiI- ity of the nerve ganglia and-in al- most every instance--cures in a few

Rust of an Emperor.

During excavations in the court of the old Roman Theatre of Vienna, in the Tsere Department. some workmen from Grenoble have unearthed a bust of a Roman Emperor in marble, life- size. the head wreathed with a crown. to which is hung a double row of large pearls. The nose Is broken on the right side
 Outside of the cuirass is a large mar tial cloak dropping from the right shoulder and held by a golden clasp. This dress was reserved for Roman generals and during the Empire, for emperors Some parts of the bust are marked by dark stains, through it's long burial.
 From the expression of the face, and above all from the head dress, it Is be- lieved that the bust is that of Em- peror Nero.

They seem to look upon 1t as an amusement or mere physical exercise and many young men ana wo- men. admirably fitted to carry on this art give their attention to music, paint ing or literature.
 Another thing is that the social life is changing. The young men go in for sport The girls play bridge. The International Congress will, try and devise some plan for making dancing as popular an art as 1t used to be twenty years ago.

4 Drastic Measure.

measure of the most drastic char acter, entitled the Industrial Concilia- tion and Arbitration Act and Arbitra- tion Act Amendment Bill has just been introduced in the New Zealand House. The Bill provides that every worker who is a party to a strike Is liable to 6 fine of $50. and also for $5. for every week the strike continues. The pen alty for lockouts is $1,0oO.00 for each offence. and $250.00 weekly during the continuance of the lockout. Every in- Sdividual who incites, aids or abets
 strikes or 1ockouts. or assists any persons to become a party to them. is liable to a fine of S50.00. If 1t be an industrial union, trade union, employ- CT, or any person other than a worker, the penalty will be si.o00.00. The sec ton of the Amendment Act of 1905, which enabled strikers to be imprison- ed in the last resort, is repealed. Workers in industries the stoppage of which would affect dangerously the health or safety of the public or cause injury to or the destruction of the property. of employers. who strike without having given at least twenty. one days notice in writing, are liable to a fine of $5O.00 or three months Imprisonment.
 Any union convicted of aiding, in- citing, or instigating a strike by any of its members is to have it's registra- tion suspended for any period not ex- ceeding three years. The penalty for a breach of award Is $500.00 in the case of union, association. or employer, and $50.00 in the case of a worker.
 A concilatfon Council is created, to consist of one magistrate and two as- sessors The latter must be appointed by both parties to the dispute, and must be actually bona-flde workers or employers of the industry in respect of which the dispute has arisen.

 This will recalls the famous will of Cecil Rhodes who provided for Ameri- can and coloniaN "Rh odes Scholarships at the English Universities, and who made the inheritance of his Daleham estate conditional upon his future heirs during some substantial period of their life following some definite profession or business other. than the Army, as he objected to any expectant heir develop ing into what I call loafer."

Romnnce of Crlme.

A romance of crime is recalled by the arrival in London from America of a remarkable missionary trio. One is John F. Quinn the erstwhilIe prince of sharpers and gamblers and now found- CT of the International Anti Gambling Association of New York. Another is Edwin Moves, the only living of the four men who in 1873 committed the great forgery on the Bank of England known as the millions of money forg- cry" The third is George D. Lane, the secretary of the association mentioned.
 A brisk alert man of 73, says Lon- don paper. Mir. Moves litte suggests the clever criminal.
 Thirty-five years ago. in company with Austin and George Bidwell, and George Mcdonnell, he was sentenced to imprisonment for life for the crime by which bankers were defrauded of more than a hundred thousand pounds. The plans of the gang. which were al- most successful, contemplated haul of more than a million sterling.
 After serving twenty years in prison Edwin Moves and his companions were released on ticket of leave. The broth- CTS Bidwell died in America, George Mcdonnell was killed in San Francisco and only Moves is left.
 The rest of his life he intends to devote to reseuing men from the folly of gambling. which was his ruin.
