HIS BELFRY FULL OF BATS
A WE'LL DRESSED STRANGER
WHO SAID HE WAS FROM ST.
LOUIS DID QUEER STUNTS.

A crazy man struck Dawson Sun
day, arriving on the Seaboard Air
Line train at l o'clock in the after
noon, and from then until 3 o'clock
Monday, when he left on the train
over the same road, going in the di-
rection of Albany, he kept the po-
licemen busy watching him.
He registered as c. F. DeBuss of
st. Louis, Mo, and had papers and
credentials showing that he was a
representative of the Order of Rail-
way photographers of the United
States. He was perhaps 40 years
of age, was well-dressed and his gen
eral appearance indicated a prosper
Gus travelling man.
He was "off his nut" in several
respects, at times imagining that
some one wanted to kill him, and at
others that he had been hypnotized
and was still under the spell He
registered at both of the hotels, and
spent the greater part of Sunday
night walking the streets back and
forth between them, being in COM
pany with the officer who was on
duty almost constantly. About 8
O'Clock Monday morning he became
so troublesome that Chief of Police
Paschal was telephoned for and
came down from his home and re-
manned with him until day.
Upon his arrival in Dawson Sun
day he spent most of the afternoon
at the Seaboard depot with Agent
Melton, and early Monday morning
he called there again and remained
until his departure.
He conducted himself in a quiet
and orderly manner, and the casual
observer would not have detected
that there was anything wrong with
him.

whara Maine Stands.

L Z
Z While it is difficult to getg q fair
basis of comparison among the states
as to the expenditure for good roads,
| yet, by taking into consideration the
expenditures per mile, the per capita
expenditure, the mile Of road per in
habitant and the number of inhabi-
tants per mile of improved road, we
can get some idea of what the several
states are doing. Statistics of this
nature concerning all the states are
not available, but of twenty-five
states Washington with an expediture
of SPIT and Maine with an expendl-
ture of $2.12 per inhabitant are far in
the lead Washington expends SASS
for each mile of road and Maine $57.6'.
Washington has sixteen miles of road
for each inhabitant and Maine has
twenty-seven. Washington has two
hundred and sixty-two inhabitants per
mile of improved road as against two
hundred and lightweight inhabitants
rer mile in Maine The figures quoted
are of 1904; five years ago. There is
no doubt that in the last five years
both Washington and Maine have &C
quired more improved roads and mat
more money per mile and more money
per inhabitant has been expended.
However, while both states have i'm
proved, Maine has gone into the mat
ter so systematically that her relative
standing with Washington must have
been improved.
The climatic conditions in the two
states are somewhat alike. Both are
subject to the drying heat of summer
and the wash of spring rains and melt
ing snow Both states maintain good
roads under the worst possible condl-
tions and yet set the rest of the coun-
try an excellent example in determine
ton to conclude conditions as they
find them.
Alabama expends $31.47 per mile, Sc
cts per inhabitant, and maintains a
mile of improved road for every thirty
six inhabitants and about one thou
sand miles of improved road. Arkan-
sas expended $322S per mile or s1.O6
per inhabitant with thirty-siX inhabl-
tants for each mile of improved road
and five thousand five hundred and
ffty-seven miles of road.
Since these figures were compiled
the good roads work in this State has
been completely re-organized. Sys-
tematic methods, larger and more con-
slant appropriations and intelligent
direction are accomplishing wonders.
We are building roads which will make
dollars for the farmers and the mer
chant as we'll as furnish the best of
facilities for pleasure driving.

Some mischievous boys decided to
test him out. So they mounted the
ROOF ofehis cabin with length of hose
which they thrust down his chimney.
That night when the good man pray
ed for the Lord to send for him, ne
was startled by a deep voice from
above.
"I-s-a-a-c," it said, in sepulchral

So it may be that some of those who
prayed for the end of all things ter
restrial last Friday We're merely MAX
ing the best of what they deemed to
be the inevitable--a virtue, as it were,
of necessity.
1t seems increditable that any great
number of people can really desire the
destruction of the world, for it is a
beautiful one, and God has bountifully
filled it with good things for the en-
joyment of his children. Never, in the
history of the human race, were the
bountiful resources of nature so large
ly known and utilized for the happi-
ness of man as they are today, and
never was human progress more rap
id than it is at the present time The
plans of the Almighty are large plans.
They transcend finite comprehension.
We may not know them in their full
ness, or determine the hour of their
fulfllmcnt. Truly,
God moves in a mysterious way
