Good Road Notes.
Contributed

NSNtiNii
 Pennsylvania is going to roiht the way toward an upward and onward move. ment for the cause of good roads.
 The State intends to spend s5O. O00,- 000 in the next two years on the inn provement of highways, which is the greatest amount ever expended by any state in the history of the repub- lie.
 several cities in Indiana are study ing plans to have fine macadam roads connecting each other, so that in any emergency the fire departments can be combined and thus have mutual protection against heavy fire losses.
 No state or county can lay claim to system of good roads unless con- structed under the direction of a civil engineer. 1t takes exactly the same kind of skill and efficiency to deter mine plans and specifications for a public highway that it does for q railroad, leyee or canal It is only through an engineer that d contrac. tor can know precisely what he is doing and the public get full value for what is expended
 When roads and iron bridges are constructed they should not be aban- doned to fate, they should be care fully Inspected not less than twice a year and receive promptly such minor repairs as may be necessary to Keep them up to the standard. Pro- perly cared for, the expense of main tenance is a mere pittance, but if neglected they become at times use less and do not give to the people the consideration of value for which their money was spent.

 The money situation is by far the most serious at present and the for eign residents have fled taking large sums with them. only thirty Amer jeans remain here and there are no women or children The rebels have resorted to desperate means to ob- tain money and this more than the fear of an expected attack from the federal cavalry of Villa and Rabago. who are now reported making q de- tour overland fram Parral, has caused an exodus here.
 Today the rebels took $50,000 worth of supplies and clothing from d big store here. At another store S25.000 worth has been taken. The saloons and gambling houses have been clos ed, as in the past few days more than 4,O0O rebel troops have been in the city receiving pay. The city is quiet as result

 They had Destroyed it.
ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH

HAVANA, June 2.-Gen. E,stenez, commander of the negro revolutionists, captured. and burned the town of La maya, thirty miles from Santiago This information was given out by the gov ernment tonight.
 The town was garrisoned by fifty regulars. The rebels numbered 800 and the citizens rallied to the support of the garrison. but all were compelled to flee. losing several men. Estenez then entered, sacked and burned the town. The garrison reassembling, made an onslaught on the rebels, who became confused and retreated to the hills but the town by that time was destroyed. It was a small place of seventy houses inhabited mostly by negroes.
 RumOrs with a vague basis con tinue to be circulated of an uprising in Havana province.

FRED STRONG THIEF
 HE CAN'T HELP II
Prisoner Was Taken Back to Los
 Angeles Yesterday.

An officer from Los Angeles ar rived in the city yesterday after Fred Strong who was picked up here last week on telegram from Sheriff Hammels of Los Angeles It was not stated in the telegram why Strong was wanted and from what could be gathered from the remarks of the officer who came after him. he seems to be wanted only on general prin- ciples
 The man is a chronic petty crim- inal who has been devastating the chickencoops of Los Angeles and yi- cinity. He is looked upon. however. as an insane man rather than a criminal and an effort will be made to send him to an asylum
 Probably the authorities would not have decided upon such disposition Of his case if he had not bought d bicycle of local dealer on the in stallment plan and have taken it out of the country after making one pay ment of $5.
 On his arrival in the city he sold the wheel to a young man employed at Gass Bros for $25 The Los An geles officer secured possession of the wheel and took it back with him

AN AMERICAN WOMAN
 WITH ACTIVE CARRIER
Madame Morajeska a Guest at Phoe
 nix Last Week.

The most restless, energetic woman in America was guest of the Hotel Adams last week, leaving the city on Saturday morning. She is Madame Alice Morajeska who came here on business connected with the sale of a group of valuable mining claims about thirty miles from Red Rock where she has been for some time experimenting operations. Madame Morajeska, of dis tinguished Baltimore family was edu- cated in Boston and soon after en- gagged in journalism. Later. she be- came the author of magazine articles
 and books and took deep interest in the lives of Indians. She lived at different times with various tribes continuing her literary work
 Early in the nineties she was mar ried to Col. Charles Crane of Los Angeles and for the first time visit ed Arizona The object of her com ing was to visit Cochise's stronghold
 to investigate certain stories she had heard about that picturesque natural ! fortress.
 Dressed in men's clothing and ac- companied by Captain Jeffords form erly an agent among the Apaches and later created an honorary chief by them, she made the trip overland l from Tucson She gathered material there for an interesting story which
 has been written but will not be printed until after the death of Cap tain Jeffords who is now an octo-
 genarian That journey was made , sixteen years ago.
 ] Mrs. Crane joined the first rush tc the KIondike and after remaining
 there for three years she became the manager of a mining company in (which d great deal of eastern capital was interested A year late she went east to confer with stockholders in New York and Philadelphia and on ! that trip she visited Washington where she succeeded in getting i through congress q bill extending the l land laws of the United States tC 1 Alaska During her stay in the north
 she had become interested in the
 Indians of that region and was ap-
 pointed d special commissioner of the 1 bureau of ethnologY to make d sturN of the Indians of Alaska as well al those who live on the other side o1 Bering Strait Col Crane in the meantime had died and while travel ing in Siberia she met Count Mora jeska and they were soon after mar ried
 Disposing of her affairs in thj north Madame Morajeska and he1 husband settled near Los Angeles where they remained for q time bu Madame MOrajeska was again over come by the spirit of restlessness ana she came to Arizona to look after thu lmining property she had acquired a the time of her visit to the territor! several years before.
 Her visit to Washington, just de ,scribed. was a memorable one and th' papers of the capital were filled witt descriptions of her active career Sh' especially attracted the attention O
