ASPHALT ON BRICK.
.rCedar Rapids Republican,


Mr.. Marshall Field has made propo-
s,tion to the city authorities in Chicago
that IL they will allow him to coyer the
granite paving surrounding his retail
establishment in that city with coat
ing of asphalt he will proceed to have
the coating put on the entire surface at
his own expense.
1t is proposed without disturbing
these granite blocks, to put on an inch
and &. half binder, and then an inch
and half of asphalt. experts claiming
that this will make an ideal paving.
and by this process the noisy and filthy
cobble stones can at small expense be
converted into an ideal surface, easily
kept clean and one which is both sight
ly and noiseless.
Should this experiment be satisfac-
tory in its results. why could not the
same thing be done with brick paving.
when the brick becomes 30 worn as to
render new surface necessary? AL
ready there are certain blocks Of brick
paving in this city that are almost
worn out. They are az rough as cordu-
roy roads. II In this condition they
can be utilized for the foundation for
asphalt II would be great saving 70
property owners ana would msks a
! ideal strSet.

A FILIPINO IN IOWA.
IOtf11nava Courier I

Ottumwa entertained today what is
either a good specimen OF Filipino or
an imposter, and those who saw him
were unable to determine which. His
features resembled those of negro,
perhaps more than those of Filipino.
and his hair was as .kinky" as any
model African. "Oquino" is about three
shades darker than the darkest negro
in Ottumwa, and he claims that all
though he is often taken for an Eth
opian that he is a thoroughbred Fill
Pine. He is attired in an American SOL
der uniform, which he claims was Civ
en- to him by Admiral Dewey. He also
produced scrap of brown paper from
his pocket, on which was written the
name, "Admiral George Dewey"
"Oquino," by means of gestures and his
broken English, made those who saw
him understand that he had come to
this country to learn and work.

While the Republican has from the

they became doubly ours by right of
purchase from their original owner.
To say, then. that they were wrested,
