Albany, January 14 Governor Odell this afternoon appointed Walter H. Jaycox as county judge ot Suffolk County to succeed the late Judge Benjamin Reeve, who died last week. Mr.

Jaycox; was Indorsed by the Republican organization of the county as told in the Eagle. The new county judge is a native of Dutchess County, Now York, having been born in the Village of "Wassaic, on September 3, 1863. His father was Lorin R. Jaycox, one of the prosperous farmers of that section, who died when young Jaycox was years of age. The mother of Judge Jaycox was a Miss Hannah Darling, a member of another of Dutchess County's leading families, and who, after the death of her husband, married Ralph u.

Stocking, now living at Sharon, Oonn. Judge Jaycox was the youngest ot five children, one of whom is the wife of H. Clay Losee of Patehogue. Soon after the death of his father Judge Jaycox went to Far Rockaway to live with his sister, Mrs. Losee, and there attended the public schools, and from that place wont to Rockville Center, where he remained for a while.

He next lived with his sister in Dutchess County, where he tried farming, but this did not agree with his tastes and he returned to Long Island, settling at Patehogue. There the only opening that presented itself to him was a position in an oyster saloon as waiter. While in this humble occupation he was a dUigent reader and Wilmot M. Smith, now justice of the Supreme Court, taking a fancy to the lad, asked him if he would likt to come into his office and study law. He quickly accepted the offer and after two years in Judge Smith's office Judge Jaycox was appointed deputy county clerk at River head, which position he occupied for five years.

All this time he continued his law studies and in 1889 he was admitted to the bar. In the fall of 1893 he was elected district attorney and re elected three years later. When he retired from the district attorneyship it was by common consent that he was in lino for the county judgeship at the expiration of Judge Reeve's term, and it is only the death of his able friend that has hastened the. fulfillment of his ambition. Judge Jaycox's ability and training especially fit him for his new duties and his record during his incumbency in the district attorneyship suggests what is to be expected from him while on the bench.

Mr. Jaycox has always been identified with the social and business interests of his adopted village, and while at Riverhead was connected with its local institutions. He is now a member of the Patehogue Board of Education, a trustee of the Public Library, a member of each of the local Masonic organizations and local fire company, a trustee of the Union Savings Bank and the Artificial Ice Company, and in various other ways lends his personal assistance toward improving local institutions. Mrs. Jaycox is the daughter of the lat.e Captain Humphrey Learning, and they were married on December 4, 1890.

They have no children. Their home on Main street is one of the prettiest in tho village. 6,311 NEW DEEDS IN QUEENS. Transactions Involving the Sale of $15, 000,000 of Property in the Borough Last Year. Jamaica, L.

January 18 There were recorded in the Queens County Clerk's office during the year 1901; 6,311 deeds and 4,096 mortgages. It ie estimated by those who are good jduge. of the real estate transactions of the borough that the total amount involved in the purchase ot the tracts described in the above named 6.311 deeds was not far from 515.000.00fi. ft was by .25 percent year's business of real estate transactions ever recorded in. office.

SENT TO RANDALL'S ISLAND. Hempstead. L. January 14 Stephen Jackson, a 14 year old negro, was committed to Randall's Island yesterday afternoon by Justice Clowes for petit larceny.

Toung Jackson was arrested Saturday night for the theft of a watch and a few dollars from the boarding house of Mrs. Peck on Prospect street. He entered the house by a window in the rear and went up to the second floor, where he entered a room which was occupied by one of the women boarders, who was ill. The first intimation Jackson had that his presence was discovered came from a smothered scream and glancing around saw the fair inmate. Jackson then ran to the window and jumped to the roof of the piazza and thence to the ground, where he lost no time in getting away.

He had been recognized, howver and was soon in the hands of the constable and spent Sunday in the village jail. EASTHAMPTON'S THEATEE. Easthampton, L. January 14 During the past two weeks a committee has been at work converting old Clinton Hall into a modern theater. The labor has all been voluntary, but it has been none the less efficient, and when the hall is again opened to the public it will be hardly recognizable.

The scheme of the decoration was designed by S. A. Gregory, who was formerly an expert engraver in the Fahey watch case factory, and is a draughtsman and designer of well known ability. The walls and ceilings have been tinted and the woodwork enameled and finished in gold and rich draperies are to be furnished by the women of the Village Improvement Society. The building has' been fitted for gas and will be opened with a minstrel entertainment by home talent.

INVESTIGATING GAMBLING DENS. Long Island City. L. January 14 A large number of subpenas were served last night directing various witnesses to appear before the Grand Jury which is in session to day to testify against John Doe.

Macadam Highways That Cost 34.,5 00,000 Breaking Up in Every Direction. ALL FOR LACK OF PROPER CARE. Sot a Cartload of Gravel in the County Resurfacing the Roads Prompt Action Necessary. (Special to the Eagle.) Jamaica, L. January 14 The condition of the splendid system ot 23S miles of macadam highways in the Fourth Ward, old town of Jamaica, which wore built previous consolidation at a cost over Is such as to call for prompt and vigorous action on the part of the city authorities l.o save them from destruction.

There are at 'present eighteen big washouts along the wings of the macadam, one of them at Hillside avenue, a hole 3 2 feet by 2B feet by a feet. There are also 42 recommendations for repairs on all the hill roads, including Biaelc Stump, Yogel and Flushing avenues, Frish Meadow road and the Hoffman Boulevard, where the embankments have washed down and filled the gutters. There is not one mile out of fifty known as the county road system but that will be largely broken open and seamed when the frost comes out of the ground in the spring, and all for the want ot a proper gravel covering. Local Superintendent L. E.

Decker of the Fourth Ward, when asked this morning by an Eagle reporter as to what he was doing to repair the highways, said: "I am doing all I can with the facilities I have at. hand. I have only fourteen men, two teams and four carts. They are at work continuously on the wings, but 1 have not a load of gravel for resurfacing the macadam roadbeds." "How much would it take to put all these roads in good condition?" asked the reporter. "Well, according, to an estimate I made," said Mr.

Decker, "it would cost that is an official report that I have, made on the matter as to what it would cost to repair tho dirt wings, to furnish the stone. "sand and screenings necessary to put these roads in as good condition as; they ever Beside the county roads' 'there are fifty miles of the old town roads, fifty miles in Jamaica Village, fifty miles in Morris Park and Richmond Hill and the Fulton street and Jamaica plank road macadam and brick highways to cared for. All of those roads, if promptly taken In hand, may be uow saved and made to last for many years at a small subsequent cost." The same condition of affairs exists all ovenathe borough. The. macadam roads of aifii 'Flushing "riave also been seriously neglected and it is estimated that it would take at least.

$250,000 to properly repair them all and put them in suitable condition future traffic. As yet there is not acarload of gravel for the work. These 500 iiglnvsxs originally cost the taxpayers of Queetisand later "the' 'City of NewrYork, not. less: than 500, 000. LONG ISLAND BREVITIES.

January 14 The managers of the Roslyh Light and Power Company are malting a determined effort to induce the Board of Highway Commissioners of Hempstead Town to grant them a franchise which will give the company the right to erect poles and introduce its system on any highway in this town outside of incorporated villages. Their counsel, Fred Ingraham, appeared before the hoard yesterday and endeavored to procure the necessary franchise, but was opposed by Justice W. H.

E. Jay, who appeared in behalf of Robert Burton and others of Woodmere and Cedarhurst. Mr. Ingraham laid before the an imposing array of franchises that had been given the Roslyn people and, judging from the number of them, they have franchises to light all of Nassau County. There was one from the supervisors, the village trustees of Hempstead and also one granting the company, the right to erect, poles in tho towns of Oyster Bay and North Hempstead.

Mr. Ingraham's principal argument for the granting of the desired franchise was that the towns and the supervisors had granted the company no more than he was asking of the Highway Commissioners of Hempstead, but, after hearing Mr. Jay's argument against the granting of the franchise, the board reserved Its decision and will give the matter a further hearing on February 3. In speaking of the matter after the adjournment, Mr. Jay said: "The taxpayers of Woodmere and Cedarhurst, who have employed me to fight the granting of a franchise to the Roslyn Light and Power Company, have done so on the ground that the Roslyn people would practically have a monopoly of the county lighting and the installing of its system throughout; the Town of Hempstead will have a tendency to discourage other lighting companies from entering the field and will practically put tho users of electric lights at the mercy of the Roslyn company regarding rates, etc." BALDWINS POST OFFICE WAR.

Chairman Ramsden Says a New Man Will Have to Be Named. Hempstead, January 11 The recent expose of the post office trouble in Baldwins, which first appeared in the Eagle, has caused a general upset of all the political calculations of the leaders of the Republican party in the Town of Hempstead.

I really did not know the inside of the post office matter until it appeared in the Eagle. The probable outcome of the whole matter will be that none of the applicants for the post office will receive it and that a new man will have to be named. The reason the town committee, of which 1 am the chairman, indorsed Steele, was simply that we did not eoneslder ourselves bound by tho action of the former Town Committee and did not think Worthinan a fit man for the office."
