Roads of Two States.
Even the casual reader of news-
papers must have marked the differ
ence In the roads of this state and
New Jersey as Indicated in the dally
reports of the reliability run of the
Motor club of Harrisburg.
Boiled down to a sentence, the ex
perience of this run is that southern
New Jersey has splendid roads;
eastern Pennsylvania has roads that
nre execrable.
Every Important newspaper from
Chicago east has printed this, to us,
humiliating truth, and the periodi
cals devoted to the automobile will
In all probability echo It to every
corner of the country. The net re
sult will be that Pennsylvania's al
ready bad record for roads will be
added to, while New Jersey will ac
quire a reputation for good roads
that it Is In no wise entitled to as
matters now stand.
In New Jersey, however, there is
a strong good roads sentiment which
promises soon to bring the claim and
the condition into line. This senti
ment extends to every tax-paying in
terest and it is so responsive that
immediately after the Motor club of
Harrisburg run Increased appronria
tions were asked for road improve
ment in townships where the run In
dicated roads to be defective, and
sections that have not now good
roads promise to come up to perfect
condition before the summer is over.
No such spirit is discernible In this
state. In Lancaster, Lebanon and
Dauphin counties good men are try
ing to point the way, but as yet there
are few Blncere followers.
The immediate consequence of this
situation Is that southern New Jer
sey will profit at the expense of
i southern Pennsylvania. How much
this will cost the business people
of Eastern Pennsylvania It Is Im
possible to sny, but a comparison
with the Improvement In the busi
ness of the southern New Jersey es
tablishments will show that money
put In roads Is money well spent.

Of a man old soldiers and old set

Cincinnati, July 14. "I am a private
citizen I urn out of politics, hut some
times I Just sit back nnd smile," wns

DETERMINE ON POLICY.
Interstate Commission Will Suspend
All Revenue Increasing Rates.
Washington. July 14. The Interstate
commerce' commission has determined
upon the policy that It will pursue to.
ward tlie recent general advances In
freight rates by the railroads of prac
tically the entire country. The com
mission will suspend nil rates which,
in its opinion, have been advanced
solely for the purpose of Increasing
he revenue of the railroads. This will
Include all the class rates. As to tho
commodity rates the commission will
make certain distinctions. Rates which
have been boosted for the purpose of
readjusting schedules between locali
ties and not on a revenue raising basis
will not be suspended. Generally
speaking, however, the more Impor
tant schedules of increases will be held
up by the commission pending an in
vestigation into their reasonableness.
The suspensions will be announced
from time to time between now nnd
Aug. 1, the hitter being the date upon
which most of the advances were to
have become operative.
Th j suspensions will affect all of tho
railroads in the country with the pos
sible exception of a few in the south
eastern section of the United States.
GIRLS IRRELIGIOUS.
Professor Hall Says Lassies of Sixteen
Haven't Much Religion.
Greeley, Col., July 14. Girls turning
sixteen are Irreligious, according to
Dr. G. Stanley Hall, professor of
psydiology at Chirk university,
Worcester, Mass., lecturing nt the sum
liter normal school here. Ilenco It Is,
he explained, that they are devoted to
ruts, puffs, psyche knots, fudge, gog
gles and other ephemeral thlugw.
The budding girl Is as bulbing us
thu houI of wouniu," said Dr. Hall,
"and the world now knows that In
stead of no soul at all woman has one,
two, three or even four more than
man.
"The young girl Is absolutely Irre
ligious in her nature. She is myotic,
seeing the immediate present, where
as a boy looks Into the future. Her
life Is all emotion, nnd for thnt reason
n certain religious fervor Is likely to
appeal to her. She should be protected
from professional religionists.

FELL TO DEATH IN DIRIGIBLE.
Bunting of Benzine Tank Causes Bal
loon to Suddenly Drop Downward
From Sky With Five Doomed
Man Powerless to Escape.
Cologne, July 14. The death of Cap
tain Oscar Erbsloeh and the four mem
bers of his crew, with the destruction
of the dirigible balloon for which much
had been hoped, following closely upon
the loss of Count Zeppelin's Deutseh
laud, bus caused gloom In aviation cir
cles. The public hud scarcely recov
ered from the shock caused by the ac
cidental death of Charles Stewart
Rolls, the English aviator, when they
learned that Erbsloeh bad been added
to the long list of Germans who had
lost their lives while ballooning.
Erbsloeh was one of the most re
nowned of German's aeronauts and
nvlators. He won the International
cup In the distance race for balloons
at St. Louis In 100".
The distance Erbsloeh's dirigible fell
Is estimated nt from 12,(500 feet to 5.000
feet.
The bodies of the Ave men. crushed
beyond recognition, lay beneath the
debris of the wrecked balloon when
those who witnessed the fall reached
the spot where It fell. The accident was
caused by the explosion of a benzine
tankr
Tbe dirigible Erbsloeh belonged to
the Rhine Aerial club. It resembled a
mlnlnture Zeppelin dirigible, being but
one-sixth the size of the airship of the
famous Inventor. The Erbsloeh con
slsted of twelve balloon nets placed
side by side In a rigid and covered.
frame like the watertight compart
ments of a ship. A long aluminum car
for the engines nnd passengers wns
swung below the gas bags. The cat
contained two gasoline engines of high
power, which drove the fore nnd nft
propellers that gave headway to the
airship.
The Erbsloeh was constructed last
year nud had bad a dubious career.
The first time it descended it crashed
Into a clump of trees and Its occu
pants narrowly escaped Injury. A
few days ago during a trial flight a
propeller was broken. Tho dirigible
had just been made over preparatory
to the establishment of a passenger
service between Elberfeld and nearby
points. Yesterday It was Inflated for
a final test by the crew.
The dirigible went nloft In a fog
near Dusseldorf, from which point the
111 fated Zeppelin passenger liner start
ed her Inst voyage. In the aluminum
car were Erbsloeh and two compan
ions, together with the two chauffeurs
whose duty It was to take care of the
gasoline engines.
There were few eye witnesses of the
accident. According to these the start
was well made. The Erbsloeh rose
gracefully, pushing Its way through
the fog to a height estimated nt sev
eral hundred yards. At this altitude a
series of evolutions was begun. To
the onlookers the airship appeared to
obey her helm perfectly. Suddenly
there wns a loud report and at the mo
ment the fore part of the vessel
crumpled up nnd the gondola was
twisted about until It nppeared as
though standing on one end. As the
gas escnped from the forward com
partnient the prow swayed downward.
I'-r a cash the airship fluttered like a
wounded bird and then fell swiftly to
earth.
An examination of the wreckage con
vinced experts of the cause of the ac
cident. The benzine tank was found
to have burst, tearing to shreds the
rubber envelope directly above It. The
destruction of this envelope caused the
bow to collapse. The stern compart
ment was still tilled with gas when
It struck the ground.
The disaster In all Its details resem
bles the one which befell the French
urmv dirigible several months ago.
when live French ollleers met death
by the collapse of the gas bag.
