The idea in the minds of the ': .people' who proposed this name was that within a few years there would be produced a million dollars a year in value of .... crops along that highway '" w But the million dollars has been more than reached this ". year, and it will ere long be doubled, for only a fraction of r, the beaverdam land there has so far been cleared and drained - and brought ander cultivation. "-. - : ' This Salem business man says offers' of $1400 an acre have. been refused for some of this beaverdam land; and he says it is worth more, not as a speculative value, but for what ii will produce in celery, lettuce, onions, mint, aspargus and other cash crops.. . . - . v .

If 1 were to believe that the novetist had gauged Dicky's spirit ual and moral qualities with the same uncanny accuracy which marked'his portrayal of my Peter Pan's physical and mental charac teristicsthen ; Indeed my world "had crashed to ruinabout me. For "Benjamin,' as portrayed by the author, was as unmoral and as devoid of the.ordlnary stand ards of life as he was fascinating. Portrayed in the book were two wives and a number of other wom en who had loved the hero. To each he had been intensely de voted for a short time,, and over one description of- Benjamin's wooing, I shivered as with a chill, it brought back to my mind so vividly the tempestuous manner in which Dicky had swept me from my sedately ordered life and into marriage with him. It was long past midnight when finished the book I had made no attempt to read it carefully, and had paid no attention to the really fine points of the author's style of writing and his treatment of?his characters and when I closed Jt, I also closed my eyes in weariness and bewilderment which held more than a touch of stark fright. A Wise Determination. For the book had ended in fan tastic tragedy, faintly reminiscent of Sentinmental Tommy and his collar button. But it had round ed out the portrayal of Benjamin as a man attracting the love of all women, but incapable himself of any lasting passion. Was this, then, the real person ality of the man I had married, and who despite the many vicis situdes of our emotional life. had believed to be my royal lover still? - Useless to tell myself that the book was only fiction, and that the novelist had. drawn upon his imagination for everything but the outward characteristics he bad so skillfully described. The story had so obsessed me that I was in capable of anything save jealous, unreasoning fear and anger. There was but one drop of comfort in the whole bitter cup. Nowhere in the book had the author de scribed a woman even remotely resembling me. Only one glimmer of common sense penetrated y swirling brain storm. 1 must not let Dicky guess that I had read the book or bad seen the inscription. I 'rose from my chain, and walk ing to the table from which I had pic Jed up the book, I scrutinized it carefully. As I had thought 1 could see upon the - cloth table cover the. falnt outline of the book. and I carefully. replaced" It in the sa paper, Then,, letting;- downmy ' daven port bed, I undressed, and finding myself shaking , with cold, al though"lhe ttiootoi was ordinarily. warm, I put on "my bathrobe, and crept into- bed; hoping that I would be able' to secure. the sleep which offerd .my bnly hope or oblivion from : the torturing thoughts possessing me. 2 KILLED; CASH TAKEN SIX 1 RAXP1TS KILL MESSEX : G'KIIS AXD Kt $03,000 f erred from the- federal " reserve bank to the bank of Birrfalo, a distance of three blocks. ; . "When the bank car stopped at the bank of Buffalo entrance and bank employes began to remove the currency two robbers who had been standing near the entrance opened fire.- Two other gangs ters began firing at the same time from" the ' robbers' automobile, parked across the street. 4 , Meyers refused, to drop a pack age containing the $93,000 and one robber " grappled with him, linally shooting him. Meanwhile Clifford had been shot dead, . and Yarington who opened fire, was dropped with two wounds. BUFFALO, N. Y... Oct. 29.

Fve ' witnesses identified? the leader of the gang through poto graphs as Harry Harris, alias Gar field, who jumped his . bail bond of .850,0.00 r in Detroit two weeks ago. Two others .were identified as Polack Joe and Mike Sperazzi. Detectives believe the man who drove the bandits' automobile was Dutch Anderson, pal of Gerald Chapman, notorious criminal. An attendant in a garage where the bandit car was "stored last night said that the man who stored the car resembled in every detail An derson's photograph. The man killed Was Charles W. Clifford. .

The defense placed special em phasis upon te tact that Major General Ernest Hiuds, command ing the eighth corps area, on whose staff Colonel Mitchell was serving at the time he made his attack on the war and navy de partments had not recommended a court martial. It called attention as well to the failure of Brigadier General Rockenbach. commanding the district of Washington to pre fer charges, contending that if any crime had been committed it was the duty of these officers to take action and that the war depart ment officials who ordered the in vestigation and "finally - brought the charges had bo authority un der the manual's pravUioaB to do so.
