ILLINOIS CENTRAL SAID TO
BE COMING TO TRI-CITIES

\ story is going the rounds of the
papers of the northern part of the
state to the effect that movement
is on foot by which the tri-cities will
secure n branch of the Illinois Cen
trail. The rumor involves Il number
Of improbabilities.
1t is claimed that the Milwaukee is
endeavoring to enter into deal with
the Illinois Central to secure the lat
ter's Madison and Dodgeville branch
Is in Wisconsin and in return for the
lines is willing to give the Central en-
trance into the tri-cities from the
north over the lines on one side of
the river or the other. There is n
variation to the rumor which mas it
that the Milwaukee branch running
northwest out of Davenport is the
one involved in the reported deal.
If either of the lines reaching the
tri-cities is involved it is probably the
D.. Il. 1. q N. w. Some people will
find it rather difficult. however. tn
figure what use the Illinois Central
will have for Il line reaching the tri-
cities from the north. even if the
Burlington road. which owns the D..
II. l. & y. w. Jointly with the Milwau-
kee, should give its consent to an ar
rangement that would give it another

Plans for the society amateur circus

of the hospital are now well under
way. The mere novelty of it has
already excited a great deal of inter
est. The posters have arrived and
will shortly be distributed about the
city. 1t has been settled that the
show will be given on Mr.. McCoy's
property better known as the "com-
mons.
1t is one thing to see others act in
the ring and it is quite another to do
the acting yourself. This is just what
some of the local people will do when
the society circus comes to town.
Your friends and neighbors will be
the clowns, rope walkers, bare back
riders, living skeletons and the like.
This will be circus itself to see
them let alone the outfit to be brought
here by the promoters. As yet, those
who will take part have not been
selected.

NEW MATERIAL
FOR PAVEMENT.
BituminOuS MaCadam Said to
be Excellent for Streets Be-
Ing Tried by Cities.
DESCRIPTION.

While Perth Amboy is discussing
the paving of her streets, the citizens
are doubtless interested in every kind
of mater ial used for such a purpose.
Among the newest kinds of pavements
is what is known as the Bituminous
Macadam." Following is what the
Passaic Daily News, in an editorial,
has to say about it:
The principle of the bituminous
macadam pavement, which is now be-
ing used in many cities of the country,
and is under investigation by many
others, is directly opposite to that
underlying the ordinary asphalt pave
ment.
The ordinary method employed in
constructing the bitumious macadam
pavement is as follows: First, the
earth of the roadway, lowered to the
proper level, is thoroughly rolled with
a heavy road roller, furnishing solid
sub.base. Upon this four inch layer
of two-inch to two and one-half inch
broken stone is placed and compressed
by means of twenty ton roller. On
top of the stone foundation is spread,
or sprinkled, a coating of specially
prepared bituminous cement, very
thin, which pastes the stones together,
while second coating of waterproof
mixture is applied. the latter being
similar to the ordinary asphalt pitch.
On top of all is spread a layer of
wearing mixture, two inches thick
after compression, and consisting of
q combination of one and two-inch
stones, intermixed with smaller par
ticles down to sand, and all held in
rubbery bituminous cement sufficient
ly elastic to provide cushion effect.
Following a thorough rolling by a
twenty-ton roller, warm pitch is pour
ed over the surface and coated with
fine stone chips, which constitute the
surface presented to traffic-a hard,
gritty surface. less likely than the
present asphalt surface to cause horses
to slip in icy or rainy weather, and
much more durable.
In regard to durability, the claims
made for the new pavement are sur
prising. 1t is alleged, upon seeming
ly reputable authority based on both
engineering deduction and actual test,
that bituminous macadam will out
wear block stone. The fact that tie
new pavement is coming into general
use would appear to sustain the repre-
sentations made for it.
