was filled with obstacles, including
baby carriages containing dummy ba-
bies manipulated by nurses Of the
same consistency as the babies, and
wooden horses attached to traps.

STREET PAVING.
n Suggestion TO Property Owners
Along Washington Street.

Mr. d. F. Greenwood who was 4ate-
ly commissioned by the city council
to canvass among washington street
property owners for subscriptions to
petitions to mcconnell foran extension
Of the paving along the street, has
been so much engaged with other du-
ties that he has not yet actively begun
the work He has met several prop
erty owners and talked with them
about it and has been pleasantly sur
prised to meet generally favorable ex-
preston regarding street paving.
Many owners even think that better
paving than the decompOsed granite.
which was set in the street in front
of the city hall as a copy, should be
put in. Some favor macadam. Mr..
Greenwood offers a suggestion, which
might be acted upon. He has had
considerable experience with street
Improvements and believes that a
good macadam paving can be put in
here cheaper than almost anywhere
else, and which in this climate, would
be almost indestructible. He thinks
it would not cost more than twice as
much as decomposed granite. A good
many kinds CT paving are called ma
cadam. Sometimes, even coarse, clean
gravel spread unscientifically in the
roadway is dfgnified by that excellent
name. In most places good macadam
road is expensive, on account OF the
preparation for it. In this country the
preparation need not cost much. There
would be necessary rock crusher
Then there should be an excavation Of
twelve inches, though perhaps less
would be sufficient A third Of the eX-
caYation should be filled with broken
stone of an average diameter of five or
six inches tamped down with sand.
On top Of this there should be layer
of three-inch stone in sand. The paw
ing then should be leYeled up with
small stone and on top Of it should be
poured the stone dust from the crush
er. Frequent wetting down and the
Arizona sun would speedily convert
this combination into a practically
solid rock.
Mr.. Greenwood further suggests that
the Washington street property own
ers along the whole, or any section OF
the street proposed to be paved, call q.
meeting at the city hall to discuss the
subject amcng themselves. The city
engineer will gladly be present to at
ford them such information as they
wish, so that they can determine the
precise cost of any kind of paving they
want.

all eyes. Her face is as smoothly flor
id as that of the typical English squire
with a voice to match. She usually
sits with feet wide apart, and in gen.
eral lacks these qualities which go to
make up feminine attractiveness.
With an active, healthy and pene-
trating mind, she directs her affairs
with the same success as her brother,
who is the only man for whom she
seems to care. An ample fortune OBJ
Viates the necessity Of making friends,
but her impulsive acts of generosity
have done this for her. ..ssN-ss 2.
During two days she directed the
athletic contests on the Scot in a way
that proved her executive ability. Sit
ting at the point of vantage on the
promenade deck, with the captain, sew
eral officers and lady companion,
who is always at her side, Miss Rhodes
regulated the handicaps for the run
ming matches, umpired the Cock
fights and was particularly active in
the tug of war. Twelve husky Corn
ishmen had succeeded in pulling every
thing on the ship except the crews
team. They had never been beaten.
Fifteen hundred passengers crowded
to the starboard side to witness this,
herculean struggle, for Miss Rhodes
was backing the Ccrnishmen, and Of.
fered an additional prize of G5 to the q
winners. For a whole hour the tug
lasted, and no one seemed able to win. Z
Finally the sailors sea training began
to tell. and gradually, inch by inch. 8
they were hauling the CORNWALL min
ers near the fatal line, when Miss
Rhodes sprang to her feet and called
out:
My faith, Cornishmen, take of your
shoes That's why the sailors are peat
ing you" The committee on rules de-
cided that this was no infraction, as
the sailors were also barefooted, and
then the tug went on. Fixing her eye
on one big fellow, who looked as
though he could pull railroad train,
Miss Rhodes would say from time to
time, 'I'm counting on you, man. and
the miner was so encouraged at this
that he finally made an effort which
nearly broke his back. but yanked the
sailors over the line so suddenly that
both teams went down like ninepins.

try seat near the city, where she has
