GOOD ROADS BOOST VALUES.
Farm Land Adjacent to Improved
Highways Scars in Price.

Washington Nov. 6.-The following
cases showing the relation between
improved roads and adjacent land val
ues are cited by the specialists Of the
office of public roads in the United
states department OF agriculture bull
letin No. 1876:
Manatee county. Florida, built sixty
four miles of uacadam and shell road.
From 1911 to 1912 land on the road il
creased in value $50 per acre. and land
mile away from the road showed an
Increase of SO per acre.
Spotsylvania county, Virginia, i'm
proved forty-one miles of road. and
land which formerly sold on an average
of s247i changed hands within three
years at an average OF s44.Ii per acre.
In Dnwiddle county, Virginia, where
i25 miles OF road We're built, land be-
tween FIVE and ten miles from Peters
burg advanced on an average from
s1525 to $50 an acre in about fifteen
instances, while land ten miles from
town increased on an average, in six
teen cases, 1882 an acre.
In Franklin county, New York, where
1874 miles of road were built eight
pieces of land selected at random
showed an increase OF 27.s per cent
while in Lee county. Virginia. which
built eighty-four miles of road, land
similarly advanced % per cent.
The construction of the bond-buiit
highways in several of the counties
herein mentioned has been Of decided
benefit to school attendance. In Spot
sylvania county one consolidated school
replaces three one-room schools, and

| In Dinwiddle county school attendance

on the improved roads, and several
school wagons carrying twentyfour
pupils each have been put in service.
In Lee county school attendance along

JEALOUS MAN A SUICIDE.
John Murray. Of Newton. Pens Note to
Sweetheart and Drinks CarnoIic Acid.

Newton. Nov. g. John T. Murray,
who has been making his home with the
S. r. Eaton family just north of the
city, committed suicide yesterday when
he drank a quantity of carbolic acid
which resulted in death within half
hour. He was suffering from melan-
cholia and had been in an intense fft Of
jealousy since Monday evening when
Mrs. John Dow. with whom he was in
love. refused to dance with him at
neighborhood dance. He insisted that
she not dance with anyone but himself.
and when she proceeded to terpsicore
With everyone else but him, he became
incensed and threatened suicide. In
fact his deed was the very act which
he has threatened many times.
After drinking the poison he wrote
a note and pushed it thru the screen
door into the room where his sweet
neart sat sewing. The note Instructed
Mrs. Dow to send trunk and watch
to Mr.. Murray's daughter at Almo.
Idaho. 1t also stated that burial should
be made in the clothes then worn and
the body not be taken to Newton.

'oAroR KILLED 80 PERsoNe.
After Tsrrorizins Two Villages Enorn
Gus Beast 10 Captured by Whites.

&rSoF toFFoFt3tU9 TWO VUuo9O0 GuoV"'
Gus Beast 10 Captured by Whites.
With other white companions have
often plunged into the waters Of the
Tuyra, a fairly large river which flows
into the gulf Of Panama after having
traversed immense stretches of impen-
etrable forests. Regularly score OF
50 OF al1igators assisted at our gam
bols. at distance of 80 or 40 yards
and we came to look upon them as
quite harmless.
After an absence of two years I re-
turned. and in two neighborine villages
found the inhabitants terrified. No
one dared to go near the river at night
fail: no one ventured, even Ii broad
daylight. to cross the stream in the
narrow canoes which are used by the
natives to carry bananas and veget-
a..,!es src.:. their plantations.
The cause OF this terror discovered
was an alligator that had devoured SO
persons In less than two months. sur
prislng some on the river bank, and lit
orally swapping others out of theiI
canoes. Thirty people-and the two
villages together only numbered ESQ
souls.
After a series OF fruitless attempts
we ended in capturing the brute with
baited hood-an enormous affair. to
which we fastened half pig!. The
creature was close on "a feet long. He
WAS so old that seaweed and MOSES
were growing between his scales, and
he presented the appearance of a tree
trunk that had been a long time sub
merged He was. we estimated. more
than 100 years old.

doctors. Whereas the claims are based
on cases which always, seem to get
well. or at least to show phenomenal
Improvement, after one or two IN.
jections, the cases which reacted In
this manner among the test series were
conspicuously few. The report does
not commit itself as to whether the
Improvement noted In these few cases
was due to the treatment, or to the
stimulus Of a great hope, or to unas-
signable causes which work improve
ment in some cases of every large
series: but 1t does point out distinctly
that If any one prefers the first ex-
PLANTATION he must in Justice attribute
also to the treatment the very distinct
and unusual deterioration in the condi-
ton of certain other patients which
progressed in some Of them to speedy
death. Aside from these more serious
cases 1t was shown that about one
fourth Of all the cases receiving the
treatment developed running sores or
Assesses at the place where they
were injected. happening which Dr.
friedman had admitted to be- I'M
favorable to a cure, but which he
claimed to have completely overcome
by his method Of injecting the ma
terial into the veins.
A long series of experiments with
the bacteria used by Friedman is
reported. which show that the germ Is
different from the varieties of tubercle
bacilli commonly known at the pres
ent time, and that far from making
small animals more resistant to tuber-
cular infection. 1t made majority OF
those inoculated more acceptable. The
report Is therefore in line with other
reports coming from scientific sources
here and abroad. which have refuted
DR.. Friedmanns claims to the dis
covery Of q specific cure for tuber-
culosis.

ACCUSES COLLEGE
STUDENTS OF TENDING
TOWARD IMMORTALITY.

Des Moines. Nov. Guy V. Aldr!ch.
secretary of the Young Mems Christian
Association at the State University of
Iowa, in an address before the coll
Iowa State Teachers Association, de-
clared that cigaret smoking. gambling.
'cribbing" and immortality among COL
lege and university students in the
state were on the increase.
Gambling has entirely 100 strong
a hold upon our students. / find that
there is pretty well-established idea
among college men that betting on
ones team is prime way to show ones
loyalty. Now and then, a case has
come to my attention of d man losing
all Of his available money. which has
led in few instances-to serious con-
Sequences he said.
Il am convinced that there is
much more Immortality among col
lege men than we dream of. In every
college. there seems to be group
who give themselves over to this sort
of thing. There is q greater tendency
toward this in larger centers. tho it OBJ
tains in practically every college. am
convinced that there should be series
of at least three addresses on Sex
Education, given each year TO the men,
under the auspices of the college. At
tendance on thes lectures should be
required. We now have In our state,
several men who are qualified to rende.
service OF this kind at a minimum
expense.
The cigaret habit seems to be on
the increase. Tobacco companies with
statesman-like methods, are spending
thousands of dollars advertising their
wares in college centers. Smoke houses
cater in their trade, to college men,
Current magazines give over whole
pages enlarging on the merits OF to-
bacco, all to the end that more college
! men acquire tine smoke habit every
year.
Drinking, as habit, is not gen.
eral-those cases that become known
are striking because Of their infre-
quency. In our larger institutions
there are always few who indulge
themselves. On every campus, q man
who becomes intoxicated, loses stand
| ing among the majority Of the student
body.
There is a great deal OF intel.
lectual dishonesty, more commonly
known as MISUNDERSTANDING II
| examinations, and in the class room
1t is surprising to find how genera
| this is. in almost every college. Ever
men who are assuming religious lead.
ership among their fellow students
have been found guilty of it. I
| seems difficult for the student min'
to see the relationship between thi
and dishonesty in the business world.
