! OMAaA'S NEW PAVING PLANT
1t Will Be Located a. the Corner Of Eleventh
and Paul strsetA
WILL TURN OUT sITUuTHc PAVEMENT
John Grant, General Manager of the
Company, Explains the Nsw Pave
ing Material TO BE Intro
dueed In This City.

Omaha will have an entirely new kind Of
street paving plant within the next six
weeks The site at Eleventh and Paul
streets has already been secured. the COM
pany has been organized and the machinery
has been ordered and will be on the road In
a few days.
John Grant, who some years ago organ
lied the Grant Paving company, il the pro-
moter OF the new company, which is called
the Nebraska Bitulthic company, and IL
vice president and general manager. The
location selected is that formerly occupied
by the Grant Paving company before II and
other Independent or semi-independent
companies were swallowed up or forced
out OF the business by the Asphalt trust.
II have not cared up to the present time
to say anything about the new company"
said Contractor Grant, but we are rec dy
to begin work now and viii be In the field
for any asphalt or bitulithic paving which
is to be done in Omaha this year so there
Is no reason for keeping quiet about It any
longer The new plant will be prepared to
do asphalt paving. the principal difference
in machinery being that for bltulithic paw
ing heavier machinery is required, and also
certain appa ratus, such as screens which
are not required in a strictly asphalt plant
A ten-ton steam roller is a part OF the ma
chinery ordered Except the boiler and en-
gine, which have been contracted for in
Omaha, all the machinery is coming from
the east
No War, but Competition.
This does not mean that there Is going
TO be a paving war in Omaha this year. At
least not such a war as a few years ago
when asphalt paving was laid as low as s.. 20
yard, or less. The prices OF bltulithic
paving will be about the same as for as
phalt paving when there is reasonable com
petition. BY that 1 mean fair prices, or
lower than when the Asphalt trust had ev-
erything fits own way
"Bitulithic paving is, in my opinion, and
1 have been in the paving business thirty
six years the best. both in cleanliness and
lasting qualities, and believe IL to be the
coming pavement for all cities and towns.
1t Is, 7 know, something entirely new
mere, but II has been making rapid progress
in the east in the last couple OF years or
since the process was perfected.
Whereas asphalt pavement Is a bitumin-
Gus mortar pavement. bitulithic Is a
bituminous concrete pavement When laid
one great difference is that bitulithic is
waterproof and therefore absolutely sani-
tary and nonrotting. and another is that
the stone takes the wear Of the trafic.
Another difference is that, while practically
as smooth as asphalt, Il is not slippery IN
wet weather and it has not the ringing
noise given out by asphalt pavements.
being as nearly altogether noiseless as apy
pavement yet discovered. A number OF
property owners who have seen Il in the
east and TO whom has been explained the
bitulithic pavement are said to be ready
to sign petitions"

Monday Receipts Light.

Mondays receipts Of live stock disap-
pointed many Of the commission dealers
who had looked for a big run. Those who
sent out inquiries learned that the fields
are drying up after the heavy rains and
that farmers are now busy replanting grain
washed out and doing other work which
had been delayed on account Of the storms.
Some say that on this account the receipts
this week will not be as heavy as last week,
while others incline to the opinion that the
middle of the week will see big runs of
both cattle and hogs.

Howard has been playing in bad luck during the entire season of the games played. They defeated Montgomery in the first by score of % to 2 in the sec ond they were defeated by Mobile by score of 25 to 21, notwithstanding the fact that it was the closest game that any team has ever played Mobile on their home court.
 Captain Spruell, Towards famous cen ter, who could not play the Mobile game through, has fully recovered and is play ing the star ball he did last season. The little forward Robinson, who was also handicapped in the Mobile game, owing to a sprained wrist is playing the same quick ball as he did at the first of the season. Gordon, Towards magnificent guard, has shown wonderful improvement in the last three weeks. The lineup of the Howard team may vary slightly from the one at Mobile.

AME 10 BE HARD FOUGHT

The series of basket ball games be- tween Howard college and the Mercer University to be played in the Athletic club on the evening of the 2Oth and 2lst is creating a good deal of interest Tn both Georgia and Alabama, inasmuch as the two colleges represent the Baptist in their respective states and naturally there is a great deal or rivalry between them.
 This will be the first time that they have ever clashed arms on the basket ball gridiron. The two teams are so well matched that the final outcome of the games is a puzzle to the basket ball u- thusiasts, and a careful perusal Of the records of the teams fails to settle the matter in any dihnite way.
 Mercer has not suffered defeat this sea- son, but on the other hand she has won the championship of Georgia and will come to Alabama flushed with her recent conquests. She also has some of tne most noted athletes in the south on ner

Graham county jail, at Clifton, Ariz.,
is probably the most unusual in Amer.

hewn In the side CT a hill of solid quartz
rock. The entrance to the jail is through
q box-lihe vestihule built of heavy ma
sonry, and equipped with three sets Of
gates of steel bars. Here and there in
the rocky walls holes have been blasted
for windows, and in these a~peratures a
series of massive bars of steel have been
fitted firmly in the rock. The floor of
the r~ockbound jail is of cement, and the
prisoners are confined wholly in the
larger apartments. In some places the
wall Of quartz about the jail is Is feet
