Saturday expressed themselves en-
phatically as in favor of a system OF
good roads throughout the county.
Senator j. Howard Moore and
Supervisor W. A. Stevenson are both
in favor of good roads and the peo-
ple of Abbeville are Overwhelmingly
for the project. Senator Moore
wants an expression from the enroll
ed voters of the county in order to
carry the matter before the next
meeting of the legislature as coming
from the people. If majority Of
voters want good roads there viii be
mo difficulty in getting a bill intro
duced in the legislature authorizing
the issuing of the bonds.
It is very probable that in the
near future meetings will be held
throughout the county for the pur-
pose of ascertaining definitely the
sentiment of the citizens. This will
be followed by a straw vote or pc
tition in order to get the voters ex-
preston in some concrete form.

when they discovered this under
ground refuge Of the great warrior.
Teh entrance was through the dining
room From there flight Of steps
led down TO a tiled anteroom which.
by the way, now serves as very good
pantry for the Americans.
From the tiled room there was an
other flight Of steps that led down to

huge iron door about one inch in
thickness which could be locked from
the inside only Within, il was fas-
tened by a double bolt which would

The dugout itself was luNuriously
equipped On the floor was heavy

arrangement The walls which were
Of corrugated iron. were painted sol
i'd white and the whole place bril-
liantly Illuminated by electricity On
little table was an electric fan to
keep the marshal cool in Summer
while an electric stove provided for
heat in the winter. The room was
about fourteen by twelve feet and
was protected by four to six feet OF
earth above IT,
The Emperor's dugout was similar
except that II was much deeper un-
foreground and there were two en-
frances. one through the villa and the
other from the grounds. The main
entrance was from the house and led

A BOYS POEM.
GEO. NJ. HUNT
Lubbock, Texas.

When we wake up at early morn,
And hear the roosters crow,
We have to tumble out of bed,
And to our choring go.
We listen to the singing birds.
We hear the old hens squat,
And when we &c to milk the cows,
The calves begin to bawl
And when our morning work is done
For breakfast then we rush.
On flapjacks we will have feast.
And finish on fried mush.
Then daddy goes with us to work,
And has a set of rules,
That the best horses he will drive,
While we must work the mules.
1t seems so long till dinner time,
We "sorter" take the blues,
But when filled up on mothers grub
We lay down for snooze.
We dream Of cake and pumpkin pie,
or bread and rabbit meat,
OF sausage cakes and butter beans,
That are so good to eat.
This little nap, tho very short.
We love &C. think about.
And when we hear our daddy yell,
At once we hustle out.
And we must work all afternoon
Which always raised the sweat,
And cutting weeds, it seemed to IS,
The sun would never set.
