' LEFT $2,000 TO HUBBY.
But Bequeathed $10,000 to Her Dogs
for Life income.
By the will of Mrs. Mary F. Snow.
of Hartford. Miss Phila C. Miller. a
spinstcr living there. says an Orange,
Mass, dispatch. will receive the in-
come from 810.000 for taking care of
Mrs. Snow‘s two small imported dogs.
To show her devotion to her four-
footed friends the deceased left her
husband but $2.000, while several
smaller boquosts wont to charity and
the remainder for the care of the
dogs.
According to cxport dog fanclcrs, the
dogs are among the smallest ever im-
ported into this country. One is a Mex-
ican spaniel and the other is a toy
black and tau. imported from Ger
many. The dogs are no larger than
house cats. For a number of years
Mrs. Snow was an ardent fancier of
dogs. and her kennels were always
well filled with thoroughbred stock.
After devoting the best part «of her
life to her hobby she finally disposed
of tho'cntire collection and purchased
the two dogs which she left iii Miss
Miller's care when she died.
Miss Miller is nearly seventy years
old. She isvonc of three sisters who
live together. She was the fu‘vorite
friend of Mrs. Snow and is herself a
great admirer of dogs.
By the provisions of the will Miss
Miller will receive the income from
$10,000 during the lives of the. (logs. in
the event of one dying she will re-
eeive the income from $5.000. No pro-
vision lor disposing of the money in
the event that both dogs die has been
made.

Be-
Slale Highway Commissioner to
gin Citing the Roads in
Near Future
~—
llARTFORD, Conn, Aug. 3.—~State
Highway Commissioner James ll. Muc-
donald has purchased a large quantity
of crude oil and distributing appara-
tus and in the very near future will
spray sections of the main heavy traVv
eled highway in an endeavor to read
or the roads of the Nutmeg State dust-
lcss and lit to tour over. The com-
mlsslouer thinks well of the oiling
proposition, if properly done, and he
has taken every precaution to see
that Connecticut's oiled thoroughfares
will be the best ever. When It is rear-
lzcd that it cost approximately $500
per mile to water a macadam high-
way and the trestnient is of but tem-
porary benefit only, it is obvious that
two or three coats of oil ludiclously
applied in the. course. of 'a season
would prove far superior. if after this
exhaustive wilt-ii of the oiling systeur‘
the results a not eminently satis-
factory, some ether mode of dust lay-
ing will probably be resorted to. Tar
is and admirable dust Layer, butlittle
of it has been used as yet. The best
illustration of the utility of a web
tarred road is afforded by the stretch
about the capitol grounds used al-
most exclusively by high powered
cars. This road was treated two sea-
sons ago and the road today, for the
most part, is in excellent condition
and practically dustless at high speed.
The commissioner is carrying out
the summer plan of road betterment
as far as possible. Two stretches in
Manchester, and one of three miles
along the Albany turnpike, through
the twou of Ylloomlield, are now rc-
coivlng attention. The ferry road
from Say-brook to the Lyme ferry. one
of the most abominable stretches in
the state will shortly be improved, of
interest to motorists using the shore
l'Ulllt‘.
A fine
... r‘.
stretch over Weatogue
mountain, one of the. 'most pictur-
esque sections of the state, has re-
cently been improved. A long stretch
through the town of Milford; a pen
lion of tho uucompleted link between
the New York and Massachusetts
state lines, and another short stretch
between Greenwich and Stamford will
soon he in first clues condition. An
cxcoileut gravel road of three miles
has just been completed in the town
of Windham. The gravel roads of the
state seem to have withstood motor-
ing travel very well indeed, as for
instance. that portion between the
towns of Norwalk and Wilton, which
is now in good condition. though it
has been built twelve years.

the combatants chewed each other se-
verely. The lights were also frequents
ly followed by threats of assassination
and burning in retaliation for the per-
sonal injuries inflicted. Another thing
that Mr. Ponicmy pointed out was
that when the policeman who patroled .
that beat on his bicycle was seen
coming everybody became very quiet,
and as soon as he had gone the tumult.
broke out again. After referring the
matter to the chief of police the
