BL uE GRASS ROAD

F. A. NlMocks is NAMED AS SEC.
RETARY OF HIGHWAY; CON-
MlTTEE MEETS.

Definite marks for the famous Blue
Grass road were decided on yesterdG
at the meeting of the executive board
of the road, at Osceola. The selection
of r. A. Nimocks of this city to sue.
coed Secretary Scott Skinner Of Ores.
ton, resigned, was another Item OF
business transacted at the meeting.
Practically every county through
which the road passes was represented
at the meeting.
A white band, two feet deep in the
center of which in blue paint will be
Blue Grass Road" has been decided
on as the mark of the highway. These
will be placed on every other tele-
phone pole along the route. The mark
will be painted about six feet from the
ground on the poles. To signify cross
road the committee decided to put
markers on three successive poles on
either side of the cross road. The
cross roads will also be marked with
metal signs, with blue backgrounds
and white lettering. No decision was
made to indicate railroad. crossings
or low bridges, but this matter will be
taken up later.
The selection of Mr.. Nimocks as sec
rotary was the unanimous choice of
the. good roads boosters present at the
meeting. Mr.. Nimocks has on numer-
GUS occasions in the past showed his
enthusiasm for better roads and he
will make an excellent secretary.
That the Blue Grass Road is daily
gaining more friends was evidenced
by the presence Of a delegation Of ten
men from Melrose who attended the
meeting to inform the executive COM
mittee that work in lettering the
roads both east and west of Melrose
was progressing rapidly. Wednesday
the sum of $1,S25 was raised in one
lump by the Melrose boosters and yes
terday morning, previous to the start
Of the Melrose delegation, the sum Of
1915 was raised among the residents
west of Melrose. Assurance that $4,000
would be the total raised in the vicin-
ity of Melrose for better roads was
given the executive committee.

strain Of Spanish blood intermingled
Herewith.
He is now 76 years of age. He en-
listed in the army at the age of II, and
opposed the American invasion of 1847
but the war was over before he was
able to take much or any part therein.
Since that time Diaz has led an &C.
tive and warlike life. He has been
connected with all the revolutions, on
one side or the other, held most all
positions within the province OF gov
ernnlent; was forced on more than
one occasion to flee the country and
to reside for time in New Orleans
and other places In the south; was
several times arrested and made his
escape.
He kept up continual warfare dur
ing almoxt the entire time that Maxi
milan was emperor and kept the re-
publican cause alive during that dis
couraging season. On one occasion he
took 500 Austrian soldiers of the Inn
perial army prisoners. In 1867, on the
withdrawal of the French troops, lie
largely increased his own army and
with other generals fought the imper-
ial army and captured Puebla after
a bloody assault. He defeated the int
perial army also at San Lorenzo and
laid seige to the City of Mexico. He
drove Macmillan out of Mexico City
to make his last stand and meet his
fate at Quaretaro, and captured the
city June /, 1857.
In October following he was candi-
