Be Improved In and Near
Bladensburg.

EVANSVILLE, April 13.-One of the
laws enacted at the recent session Of the
Maryland legislature which is of distinct
Importance to the residents of this section
of the state, and incidentally of in
terest to the automobiles Of Washington,
was the act appropriating $4,000 for the
building of d macadam roadway on the
line of the Washington Baltimore bouie-
ward between College Park and Lakeland,
and within the corporate limits of Bla-
densburg. Under this appropriation the
same road between the District of Co.
lumbia line and the east entrance to
Bladensburg will be repaired This road
was constructed several years ago by the
state authorities, but when the Washing
ton Spa Spring and Gretta railway was
built in the roadway the highway was
left I'm an almost impossible condition.
The appropriation was included in the
general appropriation for roads intro
duced by Senator Benson of Baltimore
county.
The opening of spring is attracting a
large number of homeseekers to Hyatts-
Vile and vicinity. The town proper has
an assessable basis of about 81. soc, OCO and
increases are made each year. The tax
rate Is 10 cents on each 500 and water
plant, sewerage system and electric nights
are maintained. There are several miles
of granolithic sidewalks and during the
past year $13,C0O was expended for perma-
nent gravel roadway.
During the coming summer new $500
school houses will be erected in Brent
wood and Riverdale.

Special Cabegram to The Star.
PARIS. April 13.-The defeat of NJ
Vedrines, the champion aviator, in the
election at Lmoux precipitated riot.
Dragons had to be sent for from Car
cassonne to prevent the burning down of
the public buildings. Some trouble was
expected If M. Vedrines was not elected,
as his partisans had become very ardent,
and passion in the south is always likely
to go to extremes; but 1t was not thought
that his followers would become so en-
phatic.
The election was exciting and partisan
feeling ran high. Finally, late in the even
ing, the result was announced. NJ. Bon
nail, the opponent of M. Vedrines, was
elected by 1892 votes, to 6,997 for NJ.
vedrines. who, therefore. lost his election
by 695 votes. A crowd at once gathered
at Lmoux. There were protests against
the election, the figures Of which it was
alleged had been tempered with. A riot
Gus crowd Of about 1900 persons laid
siege to the subprefecture in the morning.
Half an hour later they broke through
the iron grating, and were massed inside
the courtyard. NJ. Vedrines appeared and
tried to persuade them to maintain the
peace. He CALAMITY remarked that If
they were too noisy they would disturb
the sleep of the subprefect's wife.
The aviator's followers paid no atten-
ton to him, however, and broke into the
buildings, searching every room for his
opponent; but, not finding M. Bonnail,
whom they said they were going to lynch,
they dragged a big stone statue from it's
pedestal, carried 1t to the River Aude,
and threw 1t into the water M. Vedrines,
seeing that he could not restrain the
riotous propensity of his followers, left
them, struggling his shoulders. A few
minutes later a detachment of dragons
which had been sent for arrived at a
gallop, and expelled the intruders from
the subprefecture. The authorities are
now making an inquiry to discover the
r.ngleaders of the riot.
