SUMMER
And the Romance It Warmed

BY VIRGINIA L. wENrz

1t was that most gracious season Of
al the year perhaps-St. Martins
summer-when the spirit OF ripeness
which seems to have led once more
holds the land with its Intoxicating
breath The fields were studded with
tiny Michaelmas daisies, and the
hedgerows were brilliant with early
goldenrod. but somehow you fancied
you smelled the scent Of the roses and
mignonette as well
There was quite a group Of people
out on the small hotel veranda, and
most Of them were gossiping. Spin
ming up the poplar shaded country
road was a smart little trap. Across
the tennis courts the occupants were
plainly visible. They were James
Walsh and Mrs. John Burgess.
Il say. girls" cried one Of the group
on the veranda. ''it's a crying shame
to let that elderly person cut us out
with the richest man we have up here

Of grit or go or we'd take the wind

Then the quiet girl with the en-

PATRON
Of HIGHWAY Bill
Senior Senator From Illinois Father
of Measure Which May Have Fa.
Reaching Effect on Internal I'm
provements.

Washington, d. c., Oct, 20 Sena-
tor ullom, of Illinois, introduced .
b.i into the United States senate
which is one OF tile most far-reaching
measures inaugurated during the en-
ira session.
It provides for a gigantic system OF
seven great highways radiating from
this city to all sections Of the United
States.
Former Representative J. Floyd
King. of Louisiana, has been actively
back Of the movement and is bending
every effort to further the project. In
Motor Age" Of Aug. n, the details
of the proposed highway are outlined
in part as follows:
THE seven great national roads
provided for in the plan Will all have
one terminus in Washington. The
other eXtremities proposed are
Portland, Me, Buffalo, y. T., Seattle,
Wash, san Francisco. cal, San
Diego cal, Austin, Tex, and Miami.
Fla. The seven national roads will
be known as the Washington Nat
ional highway running from this
city to Portland, Me; Roosevelt high
way. Washington to Niagara Falls,
,i,r : d oh al tttSh itr I Il n
highway, direct to Chicago and
thence to Seattle: Jefferson highway,
running almost due west, traversing
Virginia. Iowa, Nebraska, Colorado.
Utah. Nevada and California; Great
highway, direct to Memphis and
thence southwest, through all the
southwestern states to San Diego;
Monroe highway, passing through
most OF the Southern states to New
Orleans aud thence to Austin, Tex;
and the Lee highway running along
the Atlantic coast to Miami, Fla,
The only states through which none
OF the roads will run. If the plan is
probable the routes will he changed so
Oregon, Missouri and Kansas. 1t is
probable the routes will be changed
that all of these states, with the eX
ception of Michigan, will be included
in the plan. Michigan is so situated
between the Great Lakes it is i'm
possible to include it.
1t is estimated the seven great
highways proposed would not exceed
combined length OF 10000 miles,
which at the estimate of $4,000 a
mile, would bring the cost of the
system up to the figure Of $144.Ooo,-
600.

ley.
Three of the women in the case
were sisters-Cricket, Dorsh and FL
len Cochran-and they were shown to
be the mothers of 16 of his children.
Deason also has five children by his
wife.
How Deason was able to maintain
these four families during the period
of Is years without action having been
taken against him does not appear
from the record, but his neighbors pro
fess they knew nothing about the con
ditions existing.
When the three women and Deason
faced Judge Buckley they were accom-
panied by their children, and admit
ted their guilt. The women we're sen.
fenced to one day each on the pro.
vision that they leave the county in
so days. Deason was given so days
in jail in one case and three sentences
of $500 fines and SO days were sus.
pended.
The trial of the case brought into
the courtroom an unusually large
crowd. Deason appeared calm and un.
moved. An effort was made to show
he was a Mormon, but this failed
Asked If he believed in polygamy, he
replied he did not.
The three sisters reside close to-
gether, and at one time, at least. dur.
ing their relations with Deacon, two
OF them were under the same roof
Deason is farmer, apparently mod
est and retiring.
The section around Couinsville is
sparsely settled with whites, and to
this fact Is ascribed the ignorance
professed by his neighbors as to his
relations with his wife and the three
other women. Deason appears to be
about fifty years old; his wife seems
close to the same age, and all three
OF the sisters might pass for forty.
