TO PAVE COURT HOUSE
 BLOCK WITH ASTRAL T

yard. The cost of the asphalt paving for the block about $15O0 The Board of Rev enue agreed to pay it's extra proportion of cost and the City Council will doubt less authorize change in the contract so as to allow the asphalt to be laid.
 The Southern Paving and Construction Company agrees that if in the next six weeks the city should award it contracts for paving as much as twelve to fifteen thousand square yards of asphalt pay ing that the cost of this one block shall be the same as the price per square yard for the entire contract. The high cost of paving one block only is on account of the freight on the machinery which has to be brought here for this purpose.

MIR. WEAkLEY MAKES
 THE CLOSING ARGUMENT.

MT. Weakley then began his closing argument.
 "It has been said by opposing council" :" said MT. Weakley, ''that I have become inbued with the passions of MT. Robin son who is making war upon these de- fendants. This I deny emphatically.
 "The demands of MT. Robinson were made in a seemly and proper way, and vet MT. Schuler at three times deliberate ly put obstacles in his way-these were the erasure of the ink footings, the re- fusal to let him see the stubs of check books and the minutes of the stockhold- CTS meeting of January 21.
 When MT. Robinson went there he went as a ward of the court under its protection-it was just the same as if your honor was there holding court and ordered the Schulers to show Robinson the books when they were not being used
 Will your honor be satisfied with this lame and bolting obedience, and in many cases disobedience, of your honor's or ders? Their council seek to excuse this by saying the Schulers had great ami mostly against MT. Robinson. Solomon says the man of great wrath must he punished

Attorneys Conclude Argument in Robinson Case Against
 the SChuIers
WEAKLEY DISSECTS THE
 TESTIMONY OF SCHULERS
Attorney TilIman Declares No Motive Was Shown In Evidence for the Defendants Ignoring the
 Order of the Court.

The case of Mir. c. E. Robinson against Messrs F. T. Schuler, George H. Schuler and R. D. Carver, wherein Mir. Robinson is seeking to have the defendants punish ed for contempt of court in disobeying its order, came to an end yesterday. Judge Wilkinson announced that he would make decision Wednesday morning.
 MT. John P. Tillman made a brief speech yesterday and Mir. R. D. Weakley made the concluding argument
 No case tried in years has aroused as much interest as this one, on account of the sensational allegations made in the pleadings and the facts brought out in the evidence.
 While MT. Weakley was speaking the court room became filed with lawyers and others anxious to hear the argument. The case was tried before the judge only, but the jury box in the court room was oc- cupied by lawyers, and many sat on the tables in the court room while listening to the speeches.
 When court was opened Judge Wilkin- son asked MT. Tillman for his views as to whether the Schulers, if they did pre- vious to MT. Robnson's demand decide to burn certain books, whether after his demand and the order of court 1t did not become their duty to countermand the or iginal orders to destroy the books.

The Board of Revenue decided yester- day to pave the block on Twenty first street between Third and Fourth avenues with asphalt.
 Mayor Drennen went before the board and stated that it was necessary that this block be paved as the city could not as sess the cost of paving on the other blocks until the whole section of street contract for paving covered had been finished.

iginal orders to destroy the boo
NATURAL FOR BUSY MAN
 TO OVERLOOK ORDERS.

Mr Tillman said he would be frank with the court, and that if the Schulers had wilfully destroyed them after being served with the courts order, and did so in order to impede MT. Robinson, that they would be guilty of contempt.
 But these men," he said, "are laymen. They are busy men of affairs, running a great plant and their minds being full of it's details, it was a natural thing TOT them to make an error or overlook coun- termanding the previous order given to MT. Thompson for the destruction of the books.
 without wilful and intentional dis obedience to the orders of this court, say that they can not be attached TOT contempt, and they have shown in their answer and their evidence that they had no intention to disobey the courts or ders. There is an absence of any guilty motive.
 "The whole question about the destruc- ton of the books is whether your honor believes that the Schulers and Thomp- son has told the truth about it. If you believe their reasons they are not guilty of contempt"
 MT. Tillman then went into the req sons the Schulers stated for destroying the books and as the items becoming mixed, the contem plated consolidation with other companies, etc.
 This case is a quasi-criminal proceed ing of the gravest kind" continued MT. Tillman, "and the rules of criminal trial should prevail and there should be every presumption in favor of their in nocence, and unless your honor disbe- lieves their statements they should not be convicted of contempt-their mere neg feet to countermand an order in the hurry of business is no wilful or inten- tional disobedience of the courts or ders'

After Seventy-Five Years.

A visit to the old home is one of the
most delightful experiences of old age.
In New Eng land more and more has
been made each year of the feeling for
the old homestead, audit is only natural
that the "old home" paper, The Youths
Companion, should participate in this
renewal of "old home' acquaintance.
Last week the publishers of The
Youths Companion enjoyed visit from
one of their seventy-fve-year subscribers
Mr.. R. w. Peabody Of Chicago, now
ninety-one years old, who had been
spending few weeks in New England.
He IS one of the few subscribers on
record who has taken The Youths Com.
panion continuously since its first issue,
April II, 1927. The letter in which he
sent his original subscription was one of
the first he ever wrote. Through young
manhood, maturity and old age, through
times of war and times Of peace, in New
England and in the west, through all the
last seventy five years OF his life, his one
constant companion has been the old
Youths Companion.
The growth of The Companion itself
from the first small four-page issues to
the great family paper of the present is
merely typical of the growth of the coun-
try, during Mr.. Peabody's lifetime. The
wonderful triumphs Of steam, and cleo
tricity; the great inventions that made
the nineteenth century what it was.
nearly all occurred in the period through
which Mr.. Peabody and The Youths
Companion have passed side by side.
The regard which Mr.. Peabody holds
for the paper is not because of its age
but because the paper, although the same
in purpose in its last issue as in that Of
seventy-fve years ago, has kept pace
with all the extraordinary developments
Of these three generations, and instead Of
