State Road Work.

A statement made by Chairman Tucker
of the State Road Commission shows
that up to the end of the fiscal year, Sep
tember 80 last. the total expenditures on
State roads has been 81, ,o62, s5o.sI.
The commission had contracted. up to
that time. for 2so. IS miles and had com
pleted rIs.o5. The so-called average"
cost has been from $4,000 to $4,000 a
mile. Much, though, depends on the
location and the circumstances surround
ing the construction of each mile and it is
very difficult to judge the cost of one mile
in one section from the cost of mile in
another section. The bridges and cnl-
verts are built of concrete instead of in
old style, and this adds materially to the
cost of the roads per mile.

Audubon Society Formed

After some effort to arouse enthusiasm
in the work. w. Scott Way, of Talbot
county, founder of the California State
Audubon Association, has succeeded in
forming an Audubon Society at Easton,
Maryland. The purposes of the society
are for the protection of all non-game
birds, except birds of prey and such other
birds as are classed as harmful to agricul-
ture by the Department Of Agriculture at
Washington. Protes. is made against the
present open season for hunting squirrels
in Maryland, which permits the killing of
these animals while they have young de-
pendent upon them. A longer open sea
son than six weeks for the hunting of
rabbits and partridges is opposed, and
four weeks for the hunting of squirrels.
Declaration is made in favorof uniform
game laws for the,S State of Maryland, for
a further reduction in bag limits on all
species, against hunting on Sundays and
holidays and when there is snow on the
ground, and against the sale of all game.
The destruction Of bird life in the last
twenty years has been such as to alarm
every lover of nature. The threatened
determination of all beautiful birds in
this country. in order to satisfy the de-
mands for ornamental millinery. has led
70 the enactment in many states, of great
ly needed laws for the protection of wild
birds. and it is hoped to obtain the enact.
ment of laws in Maryland for the better
protection of birds.

County JaIls TO Be Discussed !.

The discussion of county jails in
Maryland at the State Conference Of
Charities and Correction. which meets in
Frederick, November r7th, r8th and 10TH,
will be of especial interest and importance
since it follows so closely upon the meet
ing of the International Prison Congress
In Washington.
If there was single keynote sounded
in that congress, it was that civilized
peoples must begin TO pay more and more
attention to the treatment of petty offend
ers, as they seem to constitute the crux
of the criminal problem in every country.
The Committee on County Homes and
County Jailsof the Maryland Conference
has been fortunate in securing DR.. Fred
erick Howard Wines, Statistician of the
Illinois Commission of Public Charities,
who will propose remedy for the con-
ditions in Maryland jails, many of which
are said to be very bad. DR.. Wines was
pioneer in American criminology and
so was notable figure at the recent
prison congress in Washington.

VISIT BOHEMIA MANOR.
Bohemians On pilgrimage To First
Settler OF Race In America.

Honoring the memory Of Augustine
Herman, the first Bohemian to settle on
American soil, members of the Bohemian
Historical Society Of Baltimore went on
Sunday, to Bohemia Manor, on the Bohe-
mia river, Cecil county, on its twenty
fifth annual pilgrimage to the place where
the race of Observation-Disclosures started.
The trip was made on the Rock Greek
Steamboat Company's steamer Clio.
Hundreds of residents of Cecil county
met the steamer, and the spacious lawns
of the old manor house were crowded.
Governor Crothers. who in letter to
Col. v. ]. Shimek, president of the So
ciety, promised to be present, was absent.
1t is said that he is a descendant of
Herman and was expected to deliver an
address, telling Of the accomplishments
of Maryland's first Bohemian settlers. 1t
was also planned to present him book
on Bohemians. entitled Bohemia and
the Cechs, by Prof Will S. Munroe, but
as the Governor did not appear the society
intends to give the book to the City Ii
brary or the Maryland Historical Society.
The memorial exercises were opened by
Mr.. Frank J. Pintner. who spoke in both
Bohemian and English. He said that
since Herman was the first Bohemian to
establish bis home in the Colony of Mary
land, the first to settle in America. it was
appropriate for present-day Americans to
commemorate him. He also pointed out
the fact that many of the most prominent
Maryland families are lineaIly connected
with Herman. II
Mr.. John F. Shimanek, who followed,
spoke in Bohemian. He said that Her
man, who contributed his share to the
making of Maryland, was an inspiration
TO every Observation-Disclosures.
Colonel Shimek made an address, in
which he urged practical idea for the
perpetuation Of Herman's memory. He
said the members Of the society and the
Bohemians of Baltimore were planning to
erect monument to Herman. and he
asked that all contribute financial support.
At the close of the addresses and after
wreath was placed on the gravestone,
now bedded in the walls of the manor
house, lusty voices sang the Bohemian
national anthem. This was followed by
thessingnifcant strains of sMy Country,
'.Tis of Thee"
