WHAT kind OF
ROADS TO BUILD
IS THE PUZZLE

BALTIMORE, Md, April 26.-The
cost per mile of the roads to be con-
structed under the State appropria-
ton of $5,000,00O is now the most i'm
portant question before the Good
Roads Commission.
The problem is whether to build
many miles of cheap roads or fewer
niles of expensive roads. AS the COM
MISSION is anxious to build good roads,
and as many miles as possible, the
question promises to be a knotty one.
The members of the commission
have discussed the question formally,
and as yet there does not seem to be
any decided opinion one way or the
other. The Commissioners say they
also are studying the suggestions made
to them on this point by interested cit
liens in different parts of the state.
There are three kinds of construc-
ton which thecommission might adopt
on the general run of the roads. In
special instances the situation will
make certain choice imperative, but
this is thought to be only slight per-
centage of the construction work
The model" road will cost from ST.
600 to $4,000 a mile and require 500
to $500 mile annually to maintain.
This kind of road is constructed ac-
cording to the latest methods and of
The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1909-04-26

the best materials, and is supposed to
outlive it's builders several times over.
The cheap roads, which are believed
by some residents Of the counties to
be serviceable, can be constructed at
a cost of from $4,000 to $500 a mile
and require an annual expenditure Of
from $35 to $50 mile annually. The
material for this road depends upon
the locality, and If good stone is near
by it can be used at low cost. Drain
age and cuts and other engineering
work are restricted by the low ex-
penditure.
The third kind of road is the me-
dunn between the two. This will cost
about $4,000 or $1,000 a mile and re-
quire $50 and 800 each year to main
tain 1t is estimated by those in favor
of this kind of road that all of the
necessary engineering can be done
within this figure
On turnpikes which have been
purchased by the commission it is es-
timated that a comparatively less
amount will have to be expended,
many of these roads being in good
condition at present and needing only
a topdressing and proper drainage and
grading.

A CLEAN KNocKDowN
Scored by One Horse Over Another on
Street To-day.

horse badly cut about the legs, a
laundry wagon smashed to pieces and q
harness in no better condition, was the
result Of a collision and runaway on
Washington street this afternoon. A. A.
Morris, the driver OF the laundry wagon,
which is the property Of Mrs L. A,
Houghton, tells the story as follows:
He left his horse standing in front Of
DR.. G. +. Camps residence and as he
came out he saw one Of Miles coal team
horses come dashing down the Washing
ton street hill at a lively pace. The coal
wagon struck his outfit and the horse
on the laundry wagon was thrown to
the ground, while the coal team went on
to be caught within few rods
The horse which was attached to the
laundry wagon regained his feet and
started down the street at mad gallop,
drawing the wagon along on its side
until the turn into Fl. III Cutters stable
was reached The beast turned in here,
smashing the shafts Of a wagon which
stood IN the yard as it turned in. This
veered the outfit to the other side Of
the driveway and it hanged against the
City hotel piazza. Continuing on, the
team ran into still another wagon that
stood in the yard and damaged this
somewhat, when the horse was caught.

LID OFF AT coNEY.
And Big Crowd Was Disappointed Not
to See a Clash.

New York May a4.--Two hundred
thousand persons, according TO esti-
mate, went down to Coney Island yes
terday afternoon and last night 10
watch the police clap on the lid as
threatened by Mayor McClellan's recent
declaration that the Sunday closing law
would be enforced. Those who expected
a clash between the law and showmen
were disappointed, for no friction what
ever occurred. All amusement resorts
ran as usual and only six arrests were
made during the day. Two Of these
were peddlers and two were for viola
ton Of the excise laws. The general
gayety Of the island was not disturbed,
which leads to the belief that gambling
and questionable places alone are to be
moested.
Coney Islanders are happy and pre-
diet a passing OF the much talked Of
blue cloud. Many amusement resort
proprietors had their shows labelled
with ludicrous notices announcing their
educational advantages. Luna Park
was placarded as the Institute Of
Sciences while other places were EN-.
blazoned with banners and signs setting
forth their altr1istic, moral and intel
lectual features.
