ROAD MATTERS.
Court Returns From Clinton and gees
to Louisville Today Jury Awards
SI25 at MELONS Chapel.

County roads and railroad matters
are absorbing the attention Of the
county court, and Of the people in
many quarters.
Yesterday. the court accompanied
by the county surveyor viewed the
proposed road from Ellington to this
place. 1t had been laid out through
the lands Of VIM. NJ Wilson. The
latter objected TO its crossing his land,
though 1t appears that he is the party
to receive the greatest benefit from
the new road Mr.. Frum objected To
the road being turned out of its course
to run all the way on his premises.
The court was Of opinion, after
seeing the ground, that the road
should cross Mr.. Wilson's land. An
agreement as to damages was reached
with Mr.. Ffum when the change was
made. It is thought satisfactory
arrangement can be made with Mr.
Wilson without entering condemna-
ton proceedings The proposed road
will extend but short distance
through his premises.
The court and surveyor, Geo. w.
johnson went TO Louisville today to
lay out new road and locate a bridge
on the west side CT the river.
This is also made neces sary by the
locks and dams backing the river
water up into the old road.

HOW ITS DONE.
Something About the Manufac-
ture Of a Silica Brick.

Company Getting ready TO install
Plant Here Brick will be made BY
September Everything Favorable
to Local Manufacture Increase of
Capital Planned.
The Deckers Creek sand and Stone
Company is arranging TO install
manufacturing plant aud machinery
for the manufacture Of sand lime
brick on large scale at their Sand
quarry near Spring Park on the NJ. y
X railroad.
Mr. Frank z. Corbin, one of the
members of the company has been to
Saginaw, Michigan where a factory
|of this kind is in active operation.
The company is 50 greatly pleased
with the prospect from the report
made by Mr.. Cofbin, that it has been
determined to install machinery az
once for mandatory up Decker's
Greek, where the raw materials are so
abundant
The process of manufacture Of the
sand-lime brick is simple enough, and
less expensive than that OF making
the ordinary burnt clay product. The
bricks are also said TO be stronger by
one third and net near so porous as
red brick.
They are made from ordinary white
sand, and Stacked lime, in the proper
lions Of ninety five percent Of sand,
and five percent of lime. The two
Ingredients are mixed with shovels.
and then put in an elevator and car
ried TO mixing machines, where they
are very thoroughly mixed in two diff
ferent machines, Then the material
passes into the molds, where it takes
the form and size Of al ordinary brick,
aud is subjected TO powerful pressure.
The sand and lime are only barely
moistened for the mixing process.
After being nodded they are loaded
upon low steel trucks, about 40 feet
long, and wheeled into an immense
steam chest or tank. with capacicy
according TO the size Of the plant.
There are two of these at the SagI-
nav factory, each with q capacity OF
80, 600 brick. Here the steam Is turn
ed en- at temperature Of 400 degrees,
and the bricks are steamed for ten
hours. Then they are taken out and
are ready for use, but continue to get
harder as they are longer exposed TO
the air.
Mr.. Corbin brought along with him
two bricks that were made at the
Saginaw factory, and sample Of the
sand they use. One Of these blocks
was made from sand dredged from the
| lake, and the other from sand from
the subsoil there, but both inferior to
the prodnct Of the Decker's Creek
Stone and Sand Company.
The local people have the sand,
steam coal and lime all together and
They can make the sand-lime brick as
cheaply and as good quality here as
anywhere else in the United States
can make brick any color desired and
claim they can make better quality
of goods than the ordinary burnt brick,
and at a smaller cost Of manufacture.
Mr.. Corbin states that the capitali-
zation Of the local company will be in-
creased from $50, 600 to $780, 600 so as
TO provide sufficient capital, and a
factory 20 cost not more than $50, 600
will be started at once. 1t is expect
ed to have brick making begin in Sep
TENDER. Machinery will be installed
with a capacity Of 10000 bricks per
day.
