wise of her than with affection ard ad-
miration."
Muttering something about her mind
being made up" Lady Nelson left the
room, and shortly afterward drove away
from the house. This was followed by a
separation and the Nelson's never again
lived together.
Had Nelson acted wisely he would have
tried to hush the incident as much as
possible, but as there was much gossip
at court regarding the attention he hao
shown Lady Hamilton, he felt it the
part of ehivalry to devote even more
marked attention TO her for the purpose
of what he called supporting her"
The last Lord Nelson saw of his wife
was on the 18th of January, 1901, the day
after he left London to join the Channel
fleet. On parting from her he said I
call God to witness there is nothing IN
you your conduct l wish otherwise"
TO a friend, Alexander Davidson, he con-
fided: Sooner than live the unhappy life
did when last | came to England,
would stay abroad forever. My mind is
fixed as fater''
Lady Nelson was, in a great mea sure,
responsible for the loss of her husband
love. Once, upon returning from vic
torious campaign, he realized his quar-
terdeck dream by purchasing cottage
and a few acres of ground near Ipswich.
The 'love-in-a- cottage" was to prove the
idlest of dreams after all. Lady Hamil-
ton was frequently the source of alterca-
tons between husband and wife. and it
has been represented that Lady Nelson
was inattentive to her husbands per-
sonal comforts, and that she alicnated
him by lack of that sort of homely
sympathy which makes good husbands of
men of even lukewarm natures.
To Lady Hamilton he wrote: "I find
but one pair of raw silk stockings in My
trunk. | have not got, / assure you,
scarcely a comfort about me except the
two chairs which you ordered from Mr.
Foxhall."
Had Lady Nelson thought more of the
things to please her husband and to
maintain his love, and less of Lady Ham,
ilton, the Nelson's would no doubt never
have separated and the Lady Hamilton
stigma would not today be attached to
his otherwise hawless reputation.

no incline is sleeper than is reasonably
necessary in view of the natural topo-
graphy of the locality, well drained, and
with road composed of macadam or other
material of equal utility constructed IN
such manner that it shall have a smooth
fine surface.
Glass B provides the same thing as to
nclines, but that the composition of the
road shall be of shells, gravel, or proper
combination of sand and clay, or other
material of equal utility, but less sxpen-
siVe than macadam, constructed in such
manner as to have SMOOTH fine sur
face.
Glass c makes the same provision as to
inolines, and the roads shall have ade-
quate drainage and ample side uitches,
with roadway constructed so as to quickly
shed water, into the side bitches, and
kept crowned and compacted, so that ii
shall be reasonably passable for wheeled
vehicles.
How Sums Are Paid
If the governor elects to secure govern
ment aid under section rather than
under section of the act, he shall on or
before the first day of March file in the
office of the Secretary of Agriculture
a statement showing the number of miles
of roads which he claims to be in each
class. The Secretary of Agriculture will
consider such statements and determine
to which class the roads belong. AT me
END of the fiscal year the United States
will pay on account of the roads so deter
mined as class A, b, C as follows
On each mile In class A. $780, on each
mile of class b, $780, and on each mile Of
class c, $l5 provided that If in any state
the aggregate sum would exceed the
amount which for that nscal year had
been apportioned to such state to be ex-
PENDED then the sums per mile will be re-
duced pro rata so that the aggregate will
not exceed this amount
Provided the entire maximum sum under
this bill Is spent each year, 1t WOULD mean
a total of S5000O,0 COO per annum for the
construction of good roads inasmuch as
the states themselves will spend the
same amount as the government. In a
few years of such work the highways OF
the United States would compare favor
ably with those of the European countries
where on account of the limited area road
building has not been such burden and
which consequently are far ahead of us
on good roads.

RAD|UM DESCRIBED
AS WORLDS ONLY
CURE FOR CANCER
Men Who Have Devoted
Years of Study to Dis
ease Appear Before
the House

Washington January 19-Radiu,n was
described today to the House committees
on mines as the only cure the medical
ease for which no cause has been found
and which experts before the committee
labelled a rebel against all the laws that
govern human tissue.
Four men who have devoted years of
study to cancer appeared at the request
of the committee, to which have been ra-
ferred resolutions empowering the Presi-
dent to withdraw from entry public
lands known to contain radium bearing
ores. They were DR.. Howard A. Kelley
of Baltimore, Dr. Robert Able of New
York, Director Gailord of the New York
State Institution for the Study of Malig-
nant Diseases, and DIR. c. F. Burnham
of Johns Hopkins university. All the
doctors agreed that the crying need in
their work was more radum, of which
there is less than two grams in reduced
form now in the United States.
Discussing the case of Representative
Bremner of New Jersey, who is undergo
ing radium treatment in Baltimore, Dr.
Kelly declared he felt certain a cure
could be affected If more radium were
available and as 1t was the patient
showed encouraging symptoms and he
was not hopeless. He said no arrange
ment for concentrating the radium sup-
ply for such an emergency could be made
in justice to thousands of other patients.
DIR. Kelly added that he and his asso-
ciates were working to discover process
for the reduction of radium from the
ores of Colorado. But one concern now
furnished radium to the medical pro-
fession, he said. and it's formula for re-
duction is held secret.
