FOUR Miles OF NEW
ROAD COMPLETED

Amelia. Va, July 15.-The regular
monthly meeting of the County Board
of Supervisors was held yesterday. a
settlement with Berkeley & Schmidt
for building the AIattoaX Road was
made Nearly four miles of excellent
road has been completed, and more
would have been done. but the people
along the road began 10 charge for
tho soil. though all of them did not.
This consumed so much of their money
as to cut them out OF nearly a mile
Of good road. which they needed far
more than the soil. Much OF tho soil
Used for roads Is worn out, and to go
deeper In the ground with good plow-
ing and subsoiling and the growth OF
peas is likely to make most of il as
good as ever. The board is leaning
to the construction of roads in those
sections where thore will be no charge
for soil.
a proposition was made to the board
by Mr.. Stacy that il, instead of turn
ing the road force back at the end OF
six months. and then going west. as
at present arranged, fund OF $4,000
would DO put up by citizens to buy
sufficient teams and wagons to double
the capacity of the force. and then
the road must continue on east till 1T
reaches the county line at Namoz:ne
Creek. 1t was shown that this could
be accomplished in about twelve
months after getting a full equipment
OF teams Then. with double force.
work in other sections could be car
rled on twice as fast, and nobody
would be tho loser. Every district
would greatly benefit by the increased
force. The board determined to allow
the force to continue on this route
twelve months after the present six
months engagement II the $4,000 Is
raised Efforts to secure the subscrip-
ton will begin at once. and very ltb-
eral contributions already have been
made.

AIM TO BE ULTRA ENGLISH
Chinese New Women Create Amuse-
ment in Their Efforts to Copy
Western Sisters.

Every Chinese girl" said Miss
Clara Lambert, with an indulgent
smile, lis trying to be as English as
she possibly can. 1t is the fashion,
and infinite pains and trouble are
taken to acquire knowledge of the
way things are done at home, so that
the educated young lady may initiate
her western sister,
Miss Lambert has been for over
twenty years in China. She is princi-
pal of the C. M. s.. Girls Boarding
school at Foochow.
Those girls are charming" she de-
clares. 1T is natural for them to be
sweet and gentle and courteous, for
their traditions all teach them that
their minds must be cultivated and
developed, while they must submit
themselves absolutely to the authority
Of parents and husbands.
Twenty years ago, when a Chinese
girl was really elegant, she used to
swing herself along leaning on a long
bamboo pole, for her feet were too
small for walking. Now the fashion
able ones are Is western as they
know how to be. They drill with the
boys in the government schools and
you see the dainty little persons
tramping along doing the German
~goose-step, under the impression that
they are quite English. They go off
on trips with a crowd of boys, all
smoking together, talking and laugh
ing, playing pranks, dressed in curious
garments, and fondly believing that
they are doing exactly what the incest
girls in England and America consider
good style.
"As to ideas of marriage" said Miss
Lambert, with an amused look on her
face, things are altogether upside
down. Parents or a go-between used
to arrange these affairs. The girls
have taken the matter into their own
hands; they write to ask the boys to
marry them. A young man called on
the principal of a mission school the
other day and made inquiries about
one Of her pupils. Why do you ask
these things?' she queried; don't you
know the girl?' No. he replied, not
at all surprised, but she has asked
me to marry her, and l wanted to
know something about er.'"-Londop

Movina Day for Mrs. Lynx.

The domestic life of the American
lynx is not often exposed to the OBJ
servation Of a sympathetic human
being. All the more interesting is
this little incident, of which a con.
tributor to the Outing Magazine was
a witness:
l watched a lynx family moving out
one day. 1t was an interesting sight.
l was cruising up a mountain road
to a clump of cedar timber, and had
no weapon except my ak. While
was creeping silently throughathe tim.
Der / heard a cat mewing. I seated
myself on a fallen log just at the
edge of the dense timber, and waited.
Presently I decided that the sound
came from a fallen hollow cedar, q
few rods from where / sat.
A lynx appeared at the opening,
looked back into the hollow, and
mewed encouragingly. She was join
ed by two half-grown kittens that
stood blinking at the bright sunlight,
The old one moved forward a few feet
and called to her brood. They tod.
died out, and joined her. She played
with them, cuffed them about, and bit
at them, mewing and purring the
while, exactly as a tabby does with
her family.
In a short time she moved on again,
stopped and coaxed them to follow.
1t took her half an hour to lead them
into the protection of the forest. Ny
ak was not an effective weapon, but
had l been otherwise armed, | could
not have brought myself to moles'
the mother and her young.

A letter that Rev. w. M. l. Evans,

amusing contribution to the discus
sion then going on in that neYspaper
