SHOULD ACT QUICKLY.
Records Show That Treatment of Can
Ger Should Not Be DELAYED.

The report for 1912 of the Regis
trarGeneral of England and Wales
gives the cancer death rate at 1.019
per 100000, as compared with 99S
for 1911 and 939 for the five years
ending with 1870 Nearly every hn-
portant registration Office in the world
reports higher cancer rate every
year.
The assumption must not he too
quickly made, however, that cancer
itself is increasing at such a rate as
to cause alarm. Many authorities hold
that the recorded increase is the re-
suit of improvements in medical sta
tistical science. Physicians and sur
geons now recognize obscure diseases
as cancer and correctly ascribe TO chis
cause many deaths that in former
years found their way into general or
uncertain classification, says the
American Medical Journal.
Since the only hope of curing car
Ger lies in its early recognition and
treatment, the question of whether or
not the disease is on the increase is
relatively unimportant. In 1912, 46,-
531 deaths were recorded in the re-
gistration area of the Unitel States
as due to cancer and other malignant
tumors. This includes about so per
cent of the population.

STATE AID ROAD ASKED.

Not to be left out of the running in
the 100000 stampede, for State-aid
reads, Urbana district property own.
ers yesterday appeared before the
county commissioners and filed a pe-
tition asking for the construction of
| the Buckeystown-M -Monrovia county
road under the Shoemaker act The
| petition provides for about eight miles
OF road, which extends from the
bridge spanning the Monocacy river at
Buckeystown and connects with the
State road near Monrovia.
Twenty-Five property owners, claim
ing to own about two-thirds of the
property adjoining this road, signed
the petition presented to the county
commissioners. This road question
has been hanging fire for some time. 1t
has only been during the recent Shoe
maker road agitation that the resi-
dents and property owners began to
| circulate the petition.
The county commissioners heard
what the petitioners had to say and
Med the application for future con-
slderation. No action was taken. The
property owners ask that the commits
sioners make application to the State
Roads Commission for estimates and
bids on the road.
The true facts" about the condi-
ton OF the county roads are beginning
TO slit into the office with a vengeance.
Each and every delegation that ap-
pears conjurs up a vivid picture of
horrible" conditions of the particular
road desired. One of the county COM
missloners said short time ago that
after while only a small part of
the county's system would be fit for
use If the conditions described were
literally facts
But to little stretch of road about
two miles in length near Walkersville
must go the honor of being the worst
possible thing in the county's road
system. One resident of that section
made trip to the offices of the coun-
ty commissioners yesterday specifical-
ly TO tell the commissioners that that
road was "the worst in the county,"
Mud, it appears, is from one inch to
several feet in in depth, and the bed
showed indications to developing into
tributary to a river.
The prevailing moderate weather
SNAANANACho hetNG COuNSII6u Tie TOdUS
into mud holes. Traffic in some sec
tions is hardly possible. Such road
conditions can be expected during this
season of the year and in early spring.
1t is only the road with the solid base
that will remain in good shape during
such weather.
The Urbana district petitioners did
rot have to eXaggerate the condition
of their road. The road is now in bad
shape. 1t was reported from that sec
ton last night that this road is little
more than a mud hole"

SETTLEMENT is REACHED.

By the terms of a settlement, the
Western Maryland Railroad company
will pay Charles A. Lewis $1,000 for
injuries and damages alleged to have
been received when a team belonging
to the complainant was struck by a
train at road crossing near Sa-
billasville. Lewis sued the railroad
company for $4,000 and the case was
set for hearing in the Frederick cir
cult court today. At a conference of
interested parties a compromise was
reached. Attorneys Hartle, Wolfnger
and Wolfnger, Hagerstown, and d.
Princeton Buckley, of this city, rep
resented the complainant, and Urner
& Urner appeared for the railroad
company.

Frederick County Club Banquet

"A hundred sons and daughters of
frederick county gathered about the
banquet tables last night in the City
Club, Baltimore, and participated in
the sixth annual banquet of F'reder-
lex county in that city. For more than
three hours they listened to songs
and speeches that praised and compli-
mented the county of their birth and
its loyalty to the state.
Men prominent in business and SOC
ial life were on the speakers list and
many of them told of their happy
youth in the "old county"
A semi-annual pilgrimage to Freder-
ick and to points in this vicinity was
urged by several of the speakers. No
official action was taken but it is
thought that the Frederick countians
who are now residents of Baltimore
will in the future keep in closer touch
with their county by making frequent
trips to their birthplaces.

the prisoner back to Daytona, Friday
afternoon, and placed him in the city

the guilty party, and this would have
put quietus on the incident, for the

SUDDEN DEATH OF
GUSTAV FLE|SCHMAN
WELL kNEWN BALTIMORE MAN
WITH MANY FRIENDS HERE,
DIES VERY SUDDENLY AT
MELBOURNE.

Gustav Fleischman, of Baltimore,
Md, well known in this city and along
the East Coast, died very suddenly at
Melbourne, Friday afternoon.
Mr.. Fleischman had been in ILL
health for several years past, but had
recently seemed to be much improved,
and while at hotel in Melbourne tho
day preceding his death, remarked
that he was feeling better than he
had for years.
Mr.. Fleischman spent last winter in
Daytona with his family, occupying
one of the Kolle houses on Second
avenue. He came to this city again
the past fall and was a guest at
Schmidt's hotel for time, later going
to Rockledge to spend the remainder
of the season on his houseboat, the
Milletcla, which is now at Tillman,
between Melbourne and Malabar.
Mr.. Fleischman was accompanied
by Miss M. M. Martin, trained nurse
who had been with him for the past
year or two.
The deceased is survived by his
wife and several sons and daughters,
who are well known in Daytona, and
will have the sympathy Of many
friends in this city and vicinity. Men,
bers of the family will pass through
Daytona this evening on their way
to ROckledge.

ASHLEY WILL NOT
''SQUEAL" ON PALS
SEMINOLE INDIANS ARE ASSIST
ING IN HUNTING DOWN TWO
MEMBERS OF THE GANG WHO
ARE STILL AT LARGE.

WEST PALM BEACH, Feb. o.
Bob Ashley and Kid Lowe, two men,
bers of the notorious John Ashley
gang of desperadoes. who have been
terrorizing the inhabitants Of Palm
Beach county for some time, have lit
tie chance of making a permanent
getaway since two stalwart Seminole
Indians chiefs have offered their SER
vices to assist in the hunt. The Ever
glades is known to be the hiding place
of the two outlaws, and as this Sec
tion of country is uninhabited except
by Indians. who know every inch OF
the swamp, it is expected that
roundup of the criminals will be con-
summated within = short time. United
States Marshal Brent and "A Burns de-
tective are on the ground giving In
structiOns to the Indians.
As was noticed in tie Daily News
yesterday, John Ashley was captured
by Sheriff Baker and a posse of 33
men, and is now in the county jail at
West Palm Beach, where he refuses,
absolutely, to divulge the names of
the other members of his clan. The
prisoner is suffering from an ugly bull
let wound in the head; how and when
he got it is mystery, since the in
jured man will not talk or give any
explanation of the same.
