noY sToLE DEADLY eERMs.
With Desire To Be q Scientist LoOts a
 Laboratory.

New York Press.
 Enough germs of diseases to kill all New York if they were let loose to null tiply were found by two venturesome but shaky detectives when they broke in yesterday upon a boy of fourteen years, who, in hIs ardent pursuit of bac- astrological Knowledge, had stolen and was gloating over dozens of glass slides.
 Those little transparent plates, view ed by person who didn't know where the boy scientist had purloined them, would have called forth only the re- mark: Kind O dirty hey? Need to have those little specks cleaned off"
 Dirty specks! The man who said 1t would have turned gray with terror had he known that those pin-point- sized blotches were bacilli of smallpox, ty- rhoid fever. diphtheria, and the still deadiier typhus. Ambition to become a great sci Shtist had so seized upon young Irving Benton, of Brooklyn. that he was determined to get material for his studies, no matter how he got 1t. His mother is a scrubwoman earning so poor living that if cirrhosis cultures were on sale at bargain counters for a dime a tube she could not afford to buy one atom for her boy.
 So handicapped by poverty, but deter mined to get material for study, the boy stole it He was arrested yesterday aftv ernoon in his home, where he had fitted up laboratory. He was working over a culture of typhus germs when the de- tectives entered the house. In police headquarters the weeping youth admit ted he had stolen a microscope, an K ray machine and bacteria slides. so that he might be able to equip himself for a scientific career.
 The complainant against young Ben ton was Charles G. Smyth, superinten- dent of St. Johns hospital. Smyth felt pity for the boy. but felt 1t his duty to sign the complaint of burglary, So young. Benton was charged with break ing and entering St. Johns laboratory | and stealing therefrom a microscope valued at S250 and an X-ray machine, \ said by Smyth to be worth $1.2o0.

HISTORY OF POWERS SHOW IT

Washington, Dec. 12.-tSpeciall--- Because the assertion came by cable from France that the percentage of improved roads in tho United States was but TIA of the totable mileage or that approximately only 1So.o00 miles of the total mileage. of 2.150,0o0 has been in any degree improved. a wave of comment was created. and learned editors and students of econo- mics wondered why this nation was so far behind the nations of the Old World in this most important of all classes of public work.
 When, during the sessions of the International Good Roads Congress at Paris. Director Logan Waller Page of the once of Public Roads of the United States Department of Agricui- ture. quoted those far from encour- aging figures, the correspondents im- mediateiy seized upon them and sent them rushing under the Atlantic to this side; here to create discussion in various newspaper and magazine sane turns, and by millions of readers.
 And there wasn't anything new about it. The officials of the Offfcs of Public Roads in many bulletins. farmers re- ports. through the mediums of public addresses, and in many other ways, have taken delinquent States and coun- ty officials to task on innumerable oc- easions. because road building in the United States is an. incident rather than q great universal improving func- tion. There are scores of reasons why the United States should lead the world in good roads--many of them are economic. while one is sentimental.
 It Ia especially worthy of note at this time that from the very dawn of civilization the nations which have ruled the world have lead all others tn road building and road mainten- ance. If the links in this historic chain are to bind the United States to Egypt. Babylon. Carthage, Rome and France, a few hundred thousand miles of perfect highways must be laid with out delay.
 AEiIe of Cauaevvay.
 Of the five first nations just men toned, each has In turn held suprem- acy both as a world power and as roadbuilder. Tn ancient Egypt is found the first authentic record of a permanent road. Slightly to the east of the Great Pyramid of Cheops at Glzeh has been discovered the re- mains of stone causeway. It is about one mile in length, and archeologists believe 1t to have been a portion of a road built from the Arabian Noun tains to the site of the Great Pyra- mid. its purpose being to make easier the transporting of the material used In rearing that vast tomb. Inasmuch as historians date the construction of

mighty good asset for the state of wy.

in the past in the tremendous work
that is going on at our military posts.
1t will help us in the future. 1t is OF
great Importance to a state TO have
men in power with whom its repre-.

1t is also of great Importance to a
state to let candidates for high places

one disease that science has been able
to cure in all it's stages, and that IS
catarrh. Halls Catarrh Cure is the

constitutional disease, requires a con

WILL BUILD ADDITION
To THE GLIB CABIN

At the meeting last night of the Lar.
annie Sportsmen's club, at Harry Cor.
diners store, it was resolved to con.
vert the present automobile house at
the Carroll lakes. upon which the club
has a lease, into sleeping rooms for
hunters and to build an addition for
automobiles and horses. The club goes
out in considerable numbers at times,
and the present accommodations are
too small, being only large enough for
six men. 1t is hoped to made an add
tion that will double the sleeping ca.
pacity of the cabin and at the same
time provide shelter for two or three
automobiles and two or more teams of
horses. The lakes are good hunting
ground for game birds and are quite
popular with the members of the club.

Instruct Them For Taft

The action of the state central com.
mittee in endorsing Judge Taft for the
republican nomination for the presi.
OF the people all over the state. It
was a timely endorsement and one that
meets with the approval of the people.
Now, the only thing that remains Is
for the state convention to instruct
the Wyoming delegates to the Chicago
convention for Taft. 1t would thon
look as If the republican party of Wyo.
ming intended to make its own place
in the coming national convention in.
stead Of allowing the democrats to
place them in a false position.
The people of the state of Wyoming
are for Judge Taft and It is ABOUT Tina
that their wishes are considered.
With but six votes in the national
convention, the last state to be called
and an uninstructed delegation, where
would Wyoming stand? The delega.
ton is too small in number to mako
its vote worth very much to any can
didate, and the place of Wyoming in
the list of states makes 1t worth even
less in value than the number would
indicate. When the roll call comes to
Wyoming, in all probability the next
president of the United States will
have been named and this state can
only cast its vote for that person. Wy
oming is in a peculiar position. If II
does not instruct its delegation, it will
be allowed to drift along and no ono
will car for whom it votes. If it does
instruct its delegation the vote cast,
plus Mornings six votes, will nomi,
nate, and when the roll call of states
reaches that place the delegates to
the Chicago convention will not regret
been instructed.
A few of the newspapers throughout
the state think the delegation should
not be instructed. But in looking over
these papers we can remember that
they have always been strong advo.
Gates for instructed delegations from
heir counties to state conventions, etc.

DR.. V. T. Cooke, the expert Try
farmer. says it has been estimated that
the value of the stubble of an alfalfa
crop and the roots contained in the
upper 6l5 inches of the soil is $50 per
acre from the fertility standpoint
while in addition to the stubble the
whole DOT system contains as much
fertility as could be added to the soil
by an expenditure of S35 for CONNER
cial fertilizers. At the Wyoming TX.
pertinent station wheat following al
falfa yielded 80 bushels per acre and
when sown after other crops an aver
age of is bushels per acre. Oats after
alfalfa yielded rs bushels per acre, and
after other crops 81 bushels per acre.
