FOR ROAD PURPOSES
People of CoIesviIIe District,

Improve Highways.
Special correspoudence Of The Star.

ROCKVILLE. Md, June r. 1911.
At a special election held In Colesville
district Saturday the voters, by a vote Of
1876 to 50. decided In favor of bonding the
district in the amount OF $4,000 for the
purchase Of the eight and one-fourth
miles Of the Washington. Colesville and
Ashton turnpike lying in ColesviIle dis
trict. and to improve about a mile Of the
Columbia read. also in Colesville district.
OF the amount that will be raised by the
bond issue. 81 900 will be applied to buy
ing the turnpike and $1,000 to improving
the mile Of Columbia road About four
miles OF the Washington. Colesville and
Ashton turnpike are in Wheaton and
Olney districts. and sufficient money to
buy those sections has been raised by
subscription.
Bonds of $500 Each.
The bonds will be for $500 each and the
plan is to redeem one each yer The
expense will mean an increase Of IL $40
cents In the tax rate for Colesville dis
trict the first year, after which there will
be gradual decrease in the rate until
the bonds are all redeemed.
The turnpike will be turned over to the
county commissioners to be maintained
at county expense. The project means
the abolition Of the toll gates at Coles
vile, White Oak and near Sligo. which
will mean an annual saving to the farm
ers of Olney, Colesville and Wheaton dis
tricts of more than $4,000 paid in tolls.
or a net saving of about $500.
The proposition for a bond issue WAS
bitterly fought and the election was one
of the liveliest ever held In that section

Third, plant one and a half bush

New Orleans, Sept. IA. - Dead
shrimp by the million and fish by
the thousands are floating about
on the waters of Lake PUntchart-
rian, near the bulkheads at the
entrance of the new basin as
the result of a diet of molasses,
which found it's way into the lake
from the city sewers when 6OO,-
600 gallons were recently let loose
in the streets when a storage tank
burst. The molasses contained
about 2 1-2 per cent. potash to the
gallon. Unless the tides carry the
dead fish away, 1t Is predicted that
the odor will be SO great that the
residents will be forced to move
from West End.
