Tallahassee, April 13.-Both houses
Of the legislature have received the re-

to meet the needs Of the state.
The full report follows:
TO the president of the senate and
speaker Of the house of the legisla-
ture Of Florida.
Your Joint committee. appointed at
the extraordinary session Of the leg
islaturo In 1918, under the terms of
concurrent resolution No. s. with In
structions to report to the regular
session Of the legislature In 1919. has
the honor to submit the following:
Concurrent resolution No. s. provid-
ed: THAT committee appointed by
the president Of the senate and the
speaker of the house,. respectively. for
the purpose OF inQuiring into the needs
Of the state In completing q definite
and permanent system Of hard surface

was originally contemplated. The adj
vice OF the state road department
should be followed In building roads
and only roads of a permanent char
acter should be included In an project
are expended. Not one dollar Of state
funds should be expended in the fu-
ture upon any roads for a temporary
type OF surface.
Az to tho number Of miles Of roads
that should be hard surfaced" your
COMMITTEES would recommend that just
an many miles Of roads should be Inn
proved with material Of permanent
character az funds can be secured for
that purpose. The state system OF
roads as outlined by the state road
department includes approximately
thirty six hundred miles. This sys-
tenn touches every county seat. giving
every county In the state at least one
road upon which 1t IL proposed to ex-
pend state or state and federal funds.
The entire system OF thirty six hum
dred miles as outlined should be hard
surfaced. Your committee has con-
cluded that the rapidly increasing use
OF automobiles and the great demand
OF roads for transportation at all kinds
will inquire greater width Of hard
surfacing; that 1t is the question of
a short time before the nine feet road
should be discontinued.
The resolution also calls for a re-
port upon the cost Of material. labor
and every item entering into the con-
struction Of roads,

6er n miles now hard surfaced IN the
utate 81 Florida. This information
il contained In the biennial report Of
the state road department and may
be summarized as follows.
Brick, 463 miles: Concrete. 8 miles:
Asphaltlc concrete or sheet asphalt,
444 miles; Penetration or surfaced

ed to ascertain the condition OF the
present hard surfaced roads. This duty
was practically beyond the scope Of
the committee's ability. Each menu
Der OF the legislature can tell Of the
condition Of certain roads over which
he has travelled, but roads do not re-
main in the same condition for any
length OF time. Your COMMITTEES is
impressed with the total lack of neces-
sary maintenance on many Of the roads
built at cost OF many thousands
of dollars by some of the counties.
Great sums OF money are expended in
the construction OF so-called hard sur
faced roads. but. little or nothing is
done afterwards to maintain these
roads. The lack of maintenance has
cost some Of the counties Of this state
many times the original cost OF the
surfacing, for such roads have had to
be resurfaced several times during the
life OF the bond issues from which
funds were obtained to defray the
original cost of surfacing. Roads built
on brick, properly grouted, and those
OF concrete or asphalt laid on con-
crete have stood and are standing the
test Of traf1ic many times heavier than

JAIL DELIVERY.

About dark Sunday evening last, two prisoners, Ben Foster and a negro, who were supposed to be confined in the county jail, escaped and have not been seen or heard from since. Although the alarm was given soon after the men had gotten out. by an- other prisoner who was in the jail.
 An inspection of the jail show ed that the outside bars had been removed from the outside and it is thought that the negro, who twas a rusty, had done the work during the day time when he was outside at work.
 Foster is charged with grand larceny while the negro was con- victed of petit larceny and was servidg out 90 day jail sen- tence.
 Sheriff Hamblin and deputy sheriff J. A. Mineer with a posse of men immediately took up the hunt and tracked the men out near the Salt Lakes, N. M {, east of St. Johns. It is evident that the hunt has been very warm at times, but as the escapes are afoot and are keeping in the toughest part of the hills they have thus far been able to escape detection.
 Tuesday night part of the posse returned. while the sheriff and his deputy, accompanied by J. R Overson, are still securing the hills and canyons in the vicin- ity of the Salt Lakes, but up to date no more has been heard from them.
 LATER Sheriff Hamblin and deputy J. A. Mineer and J. R. Overson have returned from hunting the escaped prisoners. The men succeeded in making good their escape.

 In Phoenix.

Adjutant General Walter S.. Ingals is fathering a plan for a reunion of the members of the 158th Infantry on Thursday of State Fair Week.

The date tenta- lively set is Veterans Day at the Fair, when the entire program will be turned over to the war veterans by the Fair Commis- sion.- Graham Guardian.

No doubt all of the people of Apache county have heard of the Florence Crittenton Mission. at Phoenix, and of the wonderful good work it is doing among fallen women and girls. This mission is doing work all over the United States and has homes in a great number of the states. And many a poor girl has been set in the path of rectitude through it. The mission does it's work re- gardless of religious sects and lends it aid to all womankind re- gardless of religion. Mrs. Nellie B. Atwater, of Cleveland, Ohio, is now in Apache County working for this mission and will hold meetings in St. Johns during the present week. Mrs. Atwater is working in a worthy cause and should receive all the aid possible.

The climate, while a little cold in the winter, is very healthy; the pure noun tain air IS very invigorating.

Here's Real Hero;
Umpired I25 Games
On the Other Side

R1CHARD l.. M'BAIN. a former
New England semi-professionaI
ball player, returned yesterday from
France with the reputation of being
one umpire who managed to stand
the gaff and the whimsicalities OF
some 100000 doughboy fans in the
A. E. F. McBain, who went overseas
Tor the Knights of Columbus, um.
pired no less than 1875 games and
several doubie-hcaders thrown in
for good measure-which is rec
ord for soldier games in France.
McBain started the season on Nav
5 with the Diamond Division (5th)
ut Mondorfle- Bains, in the Grand
Duchy of Luxembourg. He offlciated
with the try-outs until the divisional
team was formed and went on tour
all through Germany. Many other
umpires had likewise started out.
but proverbially speaking "many
were called, but few were chosen"
McBain proved to be one of the
few chosen, and then remained
alone, because the jibes and yowls
of khaki-clad fans made all the
others haul tail to the rear
