labor and teams to the construction of this road. John fLarter, Ed Favers, w. F. Locke and others are especially active in promoting the improvement. The road is to be extended to Lonoke and from Lonoke west to the pike near the Alexander place, which will make a c'rcuit of 54 miles of pike road.
 The Pine Bluff Road.
 Another road proposition conjem-' plates the construction of a pike on the south side of the Arkansas river firm Little Rock to Pine Bluff. This road will take in the old Pine Bluff highway from l. tile Rock, a distance of 46 miles between the couthouses of Pulaski and Jefferson counties. Nine miles of contemplated road out of Little Rock has been completed, and when the road is finished, will pass through Sweet Home, Wrights- SiiiC, w oOuSOA, dIICA, ANeuAiOAOs "SA7 ferscn, Springer, thence to Pine Bluff.
 About IS miles of the Jefferson county end of this road has already been graded to point seven miles south of the Parkir township line in Saline county To complete the roal from Pine Bluff to Little Rock, por- tion of it will have to be built through the Saline county township, which cannot be dcne under the road dis trict system, as Saline county is not included in the legislative act of 1909, author zing the creation of road im- provemert districts. This law only permits of the organization of such districts in Jefferson, Pulaski, Faulk- ner, Woodruff, Garland and Lincoln counties.
 Judge Asher Aiding.
 County Judge Joe Asher is active ly engaged in affording every assist ance in his power to aid the building of these rcals on each side of the riv- CT and to that end is cooperating in the work with the county judges of Jefferson, Lonoke and Saline counties.
 That the Saline county gap in the road may be constructed it is pro- posed that Perkins township be an nexed to Pulaski county, which can only he done by special act of the legislature, and the passage of such act will he asked of the legislature which meets in January next. In case the bill should become law, a road district would be organized in Perkins township, by which provis- ion would be made for the construc- ton of that part of the road. Should this act fail of passage, the legisla- ture will then be asked to enact a law creating special road district ir the township.

HIGHWAY SYSTEM
 WEARS PERFECTION
Little Rock Rapidly Getting in Touch With Towns in the Neigl'bor-
 ing Counties.

By degrees Little Beck is getting in close touch by the highway pike Eys- tenn with all the principal towns of neighboring courties says the Little Rock Gazette.
 Previous to the Civil war and be- fore there was mile of Tailrcad in the state there were roads known as the Batesville, Washington, Pine Bluff, Camden ard Hot Springs roads. Big overland stages carried the mails from these towns to Little Rock ard this tcwn-for it was. a town in those days to the principal towns i'm the state.
 A system of modern highways to all these places has been inaugural ed, the starting point being at Little. Rock. One of the best improvements of this kind $ now under way ard is intended tc bring Pine Bluff and in- termediate towns or each side of the Arkansas river in closer touch with Little Rcck
 The Alexander Pike.
 On tEe south side of the river there was completed four years ago pike 12 miles east from Argenta to the C.. N. Alexander place. After the com pletion of this coad District No. 3 was organized, extending from the Alexander place 14 miles, to a point 8 1-2 miles south of Scott Station.
 The read is new under construc- ton, about II miles of which has all ready been covered with course rock. The ertire length of this road has been graded and tiled and bridged with concrete structures. The dis trict in which the third. section of this read is to be built was organized about three months ago. It will eX- tend south a distance of 6 1-2 miles to the Jefferson, county line. About twc-thirds of this read has been graded, and the remainder will be graded within the next six weeks. The distance from the north approach to the free bridge in Argenta to the Jefferson county line. is g .1-2 miles. It is proposed by the .Jefferscn coun- ty pecple,to extend this road in that county to Pine Bluff, distance of about 27 miles. This road is now be- ing graded under the direction of Judge c. M. Ph'lpot, county judge of Jefferson county. .

 While these improvements are be- ing made the people of Lonoke coun- ty are at work grading read west srom England, a distance of eight miles. Farmers and business men of England and vicinity are contributing

National Body Will End Long Session Unless Taft
 Vetoes Measures.
SUB FOR PARCELS POST
Good Roads Amendment is Also Lost Fear For Sugar Tariff
 Excise Tax.

Washington, Aug 12.-Majority Leader Underwood of the House pre- diets an adjournment of Congress this week unless President Taft vetoes the executive, legislative and judicial ap- propriations bill. MT. Taft has said that he will veto the measure be- cause of it's amendments to abolish the commerce court and limit the tenure of office of civil service en- ployes to seven years. Mr. Underwood will attempt to pass the wool revision bill over the Presidents veto. Failing in this he will not attempt to press any more tariff legislation.
 President Taft today personally told Chairman Fitzgerald of the House ap- propriations committee that he would veto the executive, legislative and ju- dicial appropriation bill if it came to him with the amendments referred to. Mr. Fitzgerald is said to have replied that an attempt to pass it over the veto surely would he made.
 Fear For Sugar Bill.
 Failure of the sugar tariff bill and the excise tax measure was feared to- day by Democratic leaders of the House. Both bills are in conference. House conferees insist upon sugar tariff reduction much below the basis the Senate will accept. There ap- 6 0r l. broken.
 Adopt Parcels Post.
 The Senate today adopted the Bourne-Bristow parcels post plan as a substitute for the House parcels post provision in the postoffice appropria- tion bill. The Bourne-Bristow plan would divide the country into eight zones. Within fifty-mile radius the rate would be fixed at cents for the first pound and cents for each addi- E tional pound of first matter A grad uate to cover the other zones would increase to 12 cents pound in the eighth zone, covering points more than 1,800 miles apart. The House provision outlined straight 12-cent rate on parcels weighing up to eleven pounds.
 Good Roads Lost. <; Senator Overman's good roads amendment to the postoffce bill to ap- propriate $25O,0 for highway work in each State, to be available when a state appropriates like sum. was de- feated today.
 The Shackleford good roads feature of the bill adopted in the House would give general aid to the main- tenance of all roads used for public purposes.
 In place of the House provision the Senate composed good roads com mittee to investigate the subject of fed eral aid to road building before any appropriations are made. Southern members of the Senate, including Senators Swanson, Martin, Overman, Simmons and Smith of Georgia. advo- cated the adoption of the House pro- vision. By vote of g to 21 the Sen- ate finally struck out the House pro- vision and adopted an amendment providing commission of three sena- tors and three members of the House to make an inquiry and report on Fed eral aid at the earliest practicable date.

HE GOTkA.CHANCE

Dl.lIuere has a tender heart and an
impressionable mind. Not only does
he sorrow over troubles visible, but,
being blessed with an imagination, he
suffers over those concealed from Or
binary mortals. When it comes to
reading, Dillmere, because Of his tenn
permanent, should select something
soothing and smild. 1t vas a malig
nant fate that led him into the snare
of the book agent who was selling
The Worlds Greatest Crimes" at re-
duced rates and in an attractive cloth
binding.
When Dillmere reached home that
aim. She was pointing to the opened
bundle of books much as one of a re-
lined disposition might point at viper
or dynamite bomb.
what on earth" she began at
once, do you mean by buying that
stuff, James Dillmere? Why, if
caught Jimmy with volume of crimes
n his hand"
"You aren't going to-" said Dillmere
They are not for Jimmy's youthful
intelligence. A mature mind can read
without harm about deeds of VIC
lence-'
THAT book agent must have been a
good talker," said Mrs Dillmere,
grimly. You'll have to keep those
books on your closet shelf or Johnny
and 1 don't see, anyhow, why on
earth you should want to read such
things when there are so many nice
books"
I'm tired of nice books" said Dill
mere recklesly. I've had a surfeit Of
recipes for tatting and prescriptions
for making a china cabinet out of
packing box. My mind needs stimu-
lating. Anyhow, it is a matter of edu-
cation. l am ashamed to be ignorant
of what has happened in the world"
After dinner Dillmere retired into
the fastness of an easy chair with his
books and promptly was lost to his
family.
HIM" coughed Mrs. DiIlmere at
last in desperation, 81 looked at new
coats for Johnny today"
Silence.
HIM" began she again. "Grace
telephoned that her uncle was dead.
I wonder if he left anything? She's
always expected that he would"
Silence.
Mrs. DiIlmere looked at her husband.
His eyes were popping out of his head
and he breathed deeply. James" she
proceeded in a conversational voice,
"the bank failed today. Your father
murdered your mother. I fell down
stairs and broke my neck"
"Umu" answered James vacantly.
Mrs. Dillmere rose and swept the
book from his hands.
"Why don't you listen to me?" she
demanded.
"Whew!" breathed her husband.
