NOLAN. Ehubolb Crowd Swears to Kill Sulli- ! van—Nething Doing When He Shows Himself—Matched For Another Race With Dufrane—Mysterious Stranger Appczr'. A few days after my race with Will- iams I received a letter from Albert what I would ask to run a five-mile exhlbltlnn ‘with Dufrane at a benefit to be tenderad to George at Elizabeth a few days later. I at once replied that I would be glad to give my services gratuitiously, and left for Bllzabéth on the afternioon of the day on which the benefit was to be held. Sullivan ac»mypanled me, although I tried to dissaude him, as the Kltza- beth spertivg crowd blamed him for catching them in the Dufrane race, and they had sworn to kill him if they ever got a favorabie opportunity. But Sullivan was absolutely fearless, and with many misgivings of the outcome of our trip I allowed him to accom- | pany me to Elizabeth. We arrived at about .7 o'clock p. m., and went di- rect to the rink, which was filled \\’ith; a crowd of about 500. Dufrane and Schardien met me as I entered, \\e[-A comihg me to Klizabeth, and I soon surrounded by a crowd of curious | sports, anxious to get a glimpse of | Jim Dwyer and several others shook hands with me, and Dwyer said: | “We are glad Lo see you down here, Mr, Gleason, as you beat us, fair and square; but if we ever catch that ras cal Smith we will-surely kill him! Betore I could reply, Sullivan, who stood a short distance behind me, and whose face was partly concezled b a wide-brimmed hat which he wore, stepped forward and, removing his | Sullivan at THE ‘CINDER PATH 24, hat, said: ‘“Well, gentlemen, Mr. Smith is here, at your service!” 1 feit sure at that moment that we were siated for the hospital, but whether it was owing to the audacity he displayed in coming there that jght, or because I was their invited est, that saved us, I know not, but | fl no' one made a hestile move, and Du- | ° (] SUITS- T0- ORDER $18. 10 §25. Opening Dlsp/a y of frane and 1 were soon on the mark. | The five-mile exhibition was run in ' 28 minutes, Dufrane and I runring in close company throughout the race, and finishing almost together. ‘ This so pleased the spectators that some of them expressed the opmion‘ that a: ten-mile race between us would be worth going miles to see. After the exhibition Sullivan sugsested that George and I might arrange a | ten-mile race, to be run at Orange two weeks lster for gate receipts. This suggestioh was eagerly accepted by Dufrane and his backers, who hoped to be able to get back some of their lost money. | Coffey and hig friends at once con- | cluded that this race was to be the “throw down” which they had looked ! for, frem the time they had cornered the lion’s share of the bets in the for-: mer race witn Dufrane, agd decided not to bet on this race. Sullivan, how- ver, had a wheel revolving within a and on the afternoon of the day announcement was niade of the ning race with Dufrane, a siranger dropped into Orange, giving the name of Carroll of New Brunswick, and of- fered io run me two miles for $500 & side the following week. The otfer 4 was accepted and the stranger and once posted a forfeit of $100 a side with John Erb, who was sclected as referee and stakehoider, and the race was booked to be decided at the Park rink, Orange, on June 19, 1890.

DU PONT'S DELAWARE ROAD SOLVING SERIOUS PROBLEM | | 106 Miles Built Free of Expense to the \ State. Although at the ‘present time there are between 15,000 and 20,000 miles of improved roads in the United States, either under construction or proposed, | no section of road is receiving the | careful investigation or is being| watched as closely by the road mak- ers and Dy good roads advocates, as is the 106-mile road which Gen. T. Coleman duPont is constructing at his ! own expense through the state of Del- | aware, ‘To quote the general's own words: “My object in building the road is not only to provide a good highway where 1t ig badly needed, but also to work out in a practical way a problem that will . if successful, revolutionize the building of roads in the United States. The problem is how can a free co! try road be buiit to make it pay its original cost, cost of maintenance and a fair return on the money invested.” The solution of this problem as worked out by General duPont, as a vesuli of his experience on the Dela- ware road, is a system of gr.u]uatedx assessments, so arranged that all who | receive direct benefits from the road are to bear their share of its ex- pense, at the outset, and will later be recompensed by rentals of the unused portions of the road itself, Suppose, for insance, that thdg| Delaware road was being constructed | by this method, instead of being given | by Gereral duPont. On the duPont| road some 26 acres of land have been condemped for every mile of road.| Revenue from the road will be par- tlally derived from trolley franchises, from water, telephone, telegraph and sewer right of way rentals and par- tially from the rental of that part of the 26 acres per mile, which is not| usecd for actual road constructien, As laid out, the duPont road con- | sists of some seven parts, although | not all of them will be developed im- mediately, the idea being to increase the size of the road as the traffic be- comes heavier, When completed the road will consist of a forty-foot strip in the middle, which will be givenover to automobiles, and on either side of this forty foot strip, a fifteen-foot | strip, which has been reserved for| trolley lines. Beyond the trolley lines | horse-drawn vehicles and heavy traf- " fle. Adjoining ecach of these Jasl-| named roads will be dirt roads,. fifteen | feet wide, under which will be laid| water pipes, sewers, telephone and telegraph ccrduits, etc, thus elimi- nating any necessity for tearing up the paved portion of the road. As will be seen, the total acreage utilized for the road, in spite of the magnificent width and arrangement, will not come near taking up the 2 mainder tha* it is expe:ted considera- | ! ble revenue for road maintenance can be derived. i , General duPont has conceived sev-| era) ct-er features, which he intends i to_put through, and which will be of gréat value to the state. One of them is the foundation® of several agricul- tural! experimental stations, in charge of trained men, which will be main- {ained by the revenue of the road. In the actual comstruction of the road many experiments are being tried | rifles and ammunition which he had tat the | Goad- are nn( serious. © o Evefy Suit we make to order at $18.00 to $25.00 gives | evidence of superior style, perfect fit and conscientious which will be exceedingly useful for fabrics. reference purposes and for the guid- ance of future road makers. Although different systems of road construction have Leen experimented upon, it is probable that either the bithulitic or Denetration system will be used. While the bithlulitic process. is more expensive, it withstands the action of | the elements better in many respects than the penetration system.
