ROMEO CAUGHT IN CHIMNEY
Curious Antics of a Breton Lover
Arouse Excitement in Village
in Brittany.

This story comes straight from Nor
laix, very modern place in Brittany
Our Romeo like Chaucer's hero, was
caught in the chimney. He was go
ing to his sweetheart, instead of run
ming away from her. The pretty
Juliette was a distance of some seven
miles from his home. The enamored
Romeo tramped it on foot all that
distance. At night he reached the
house, and called, but got no answer.
AS the door was shut he decided to
try the roof. On the roof he found
the chimney. and it seemed to him
that was quite wide enough to let him
down. He descended for some dis
lance, but then. as he came near the
fireplace, the chimney narrowed. He
slipped and got in a narrow neck.
Here he was caught, unable to move
up or down. Before long he felt "a
suffocating sensation. If the thing
lasted much longer it would be the
end of him. He could stand 1t no
more. After groaning he yelled. and
he beloved so well that not only was
his sweetheart disturbed in her slum-
bers, but the whole village was ex-
cited.
The nearest chimney-sweep was
called, but he could not help him out.
The gendarmes woke up the mayor,
and he, with all the notables of the
place, went to look. They consulted
among them, and the only way to
hberate the captive lover was to pull
down part of the chimney. This was
done by some masons. and he was
presently released. but before being
allowed his freedom a police report
was drawn UP, with a view to inf1ict-
ing a series of fines for breaking into
a private Enclosure, damaging other
peoples property. waking up the au-
| thorities unnecessarily, and causing a
public scandal. Poor Romeo was very
sad when 1t was all over.-Paris Cor

OUTLOOK FOR
Big HIGHWAY
ENCOURAGING
GOOD PROGRESS HAS been
MADE During PAST YEAR
PRESIDENT OF QUEBEC MIAMI
ASSOCIATION BELIEVES ROAD
WILL BRING COUNTRIES CLOS
Err TOGETHER.

PLATTSBURGH, NY, Jan. Is -
Most gratifying progress has been
made during the season just closed
in the work of constructing the Que
bee Miami international highway.
Reports received by Howard D. Had
ley of this city, president of the
Quebec Miami international highway
association from the province of Que
bee, Can, the District of Columbia
and the ten states through which the
great highway leads show that while
rainy weather hampered the work of
the long dry fall made it possible to
continue the work much later than
usual New York state having al
ready spent $50, ZOO, 900 for good roads
voted last November another $780,
| 600, 900. 1t is significant that the
majority given by the voters in favor
of the second 100000 bond
issue, i. e., nearly 100000, was the
largest vote ever given a proposition
or candidate in the history of the
state.
| More than half of the entire $500
miles of the Quebec Miami road is
now finished, according to Mr.. Had
ley's reports about 400 more are
under construction, while plans are
being made this winter to get to
work on the remaining 700 miles so
that the entire road may be complet-
ed by the fall of 1914 The stretch
from Washington, D. G. to Montreal,
P. O., $40 miles in length, will be
practically all done according to pres
ent indications, by the middle of Jun
1918.
Mr.. Hadley figures that the Que
bee Miami highway will carry a
heavier traffic than any other trunk
highway in North America for at
least three reasons: 1t leads through
a region of very great historic inter
ests; it leads through a region of
matchless scenic attractiveness; fin
ally, and of course most important
of all, it will form the main artery
north and south, through the most
densely populated section of North
America
The ten states together with the
District of Columbia and Province Of
Quebec, through which the road Leads
have a total population of 81 1865
nearly one-third of the population OIL
continental United States and Cana
da. Nearly 16,O0O,0 900, or one-sixth Of
the total population of the United
States and Canada live within q
miles of this road.
There are not less than 81 cities
of more than $4,000 population alonf
the Quebec Miami road. Clever
of them, Quebec. Can, Schenectady
Troy, and Yonkers, N. Y, Hoboken
Camden, Elizabeth and Trenton, n
j., Wilmington, Del, Savannah, Ga.
and Jacksonville, Fla, have more
than $4,000 but less than 100, 900

700, 1000, and New York City has s.

600, 900.
In view of the fact that there are
10000, 900 people, large portion of
them wealthy or well to do, living on
or within easy reach of the Quebec
Miami highway it is interesting to
speculate on the amount Of traffic
this great artery of trade viii bear.
In this connection the figures show
ing the growth of the automobile in
dustry are interesting. 1t has had an
absolutely unparalleled growth. In
a single decade, from 1899 to 1909,
the percentage of increase in the
value of automobile products in the
United States was 5,14S.6, whereas
the percentage of increase over
similar period in the industry which
showed the next largest rate of
growth-that of copper, tin and sheet
iron-was but 1855. No interest of
mankind it is said has ever remote
ly approached this astonishing ex-
pansion. In 1912 not less than $780,
900 automobiles, exclusive of motor
trucks, were produced, or an increase
of $4,000 over the previous year.
1t is startling to know that so uni
{hA hi 10
that one machine is now in use for
every ITO persons in the United
States.
I'VE are planning a systematic
campaign said Mr.. Hadley, ito
bring about the completion of the in
ternational highway before the close
Of 1914, in time for the joint cele-
bration of century of peace be-
tween English speaking peoples, and
of half century of peace between
the north and south, since the close
of the civil war, for this Quebec Mi
ami international highway will form
the outward and visible bond of an
inward and invisible feeling of peace
and good will, not only between eau
ada, the best neighbor any country
ever had, and the United States, but
also between the north and south.
I'VE wish to emphasize by the
completion of this Quebec Miami
highway on the occasion of these
great peace celebrations the contrast
between being at peace, Gas we now
are, building good roads, and being
at war. building forts. as we were In
1915. We are very hopeful that these
great celebrations of long years Of
peace and prosperity and the compile
/ ton of this great international high
way in 1914 will mark the beginning
bf the actual reduction of war ex-
penditures by all the nations of the
earth. John Sherman said that the
way to resume specie payments was
to resume. And he was right. The
way to reduce war expenditures is to
reduce
Mr.. Hadley is just about as enthu-
siastic over the construction of the
inter coastal canal along the Allan
tic seaboard from Florida to Maine
as he is over the Quebec-Miami in
ternational highway. The two pro
iects go hand in hand for the de-
veIopment of the Atlantic coast states
the - criminal states.
There is every indication" con.
Guided Mr.. Hadley, that before the
end Of another year the people OF
every nation viii be demanding in nc
uncertain tones that a halt be made
on war expenditures and that a cor
responding increase be made in ex
penditures for improving our high
ways and our water ways The com
pletion of the Panama canal this yea
is going to start people thinking
about these things"
