In an effort to locate her son, who has been lost to her for many months, Mrs. Sarah E. Jordan, of I've, Texas, has written to George Mauk of the Gila Valley railroad, begging him to give her any information he may have re- garding beer lost boy.
 The mother states in her letter that the missing son, n. B. Jordan, was at work in the local yards when he wrote to her last. This has been months ago and from the tone of the letter, the woman is heartbroken through failure to hear from him.

NEW YORK, May l5.--The waiting attitude adopted by the trading ele- ment was significant of the uncertain state of mind caused by the conflicting evidences of what has been going on in the market under cover during the week. Authorities agree in pointing out the signs of improvement in busi- ness, but the spectators remain doubt ful of how much of this is adequately discounted in the rise of prices.

in some lines are still promoting some
doubt and uncertainty, but the buying

these at their true value.

GOOD ROADS IN CALIFORNIA.
Much Wanted, and Yet Very DIE
cult to Get.
IN Francisco News Letter.

From the San Francisco News Letter.
Gov. Gillett is trying to have a measure
passed that will provide a fund to estab-
fish state roads connecting all important
points in California. The measure pro-
posed IS a good one, and it should pass,
as originally drafted and without amend
ment. 1t provides that $4,000, 900 be laid
aside for road construction. This road
construction will in no way interfere with
the mud hillocks being put up as roads
by the various counties, but it may act
as an example of what good road build
ing should be. for the intention is to i'm
port the services OF United States ex-
pert in roads and have him coach the
builders as to the best use to be made of
the local materials.
In a recently published pamphlet, issued
on the subject of good roads, 1t is report
ed that in one Of the central counties of
California the sum of $685., 600 was ex-
pended by the road, or county. commits
sioners in one year, and the further state
ment is made that this particular county
mas no roads worth the name 1t must
be remembered also that immense sums
of money had preceded the amount men
toned. This Is true OF one county, and 1t
may be said that it is practically true of
time that some other measures were
adopted to secure road representation for
every cent OF money expended: The state
engineer is practically a myth. There is
no objection possible. from any sane cit
izen, that the state engineer shall not be
raised from the Cimmerian obscurity that
surrounds his Office. and. together with
q number OF county road builders be
given q few lessons on highway construc-
ton by the federal experts. There ID

hidden and possibly venal reason for the
objections voiced against the governor 8
