ADOPTS ASPHALT BLOCK.
Richmond Awards Paving Contract to
Washington Firm.

The municipal government of the city of
Richmond. Va, has informed the District
Commissioners of its decision to adopt the
asphalt block as the form of pavement for
their city. This Information was given the
officials OF this city because of the fact
that the Richmond officials have been in
correspondence with the local engineers for
some time past relative to the experience
OF the Washington authorities with the va
rious kinds of asphalt pavements.
The contract for the work to be done
in Richmond has been awarded to the
Washington Asphalt Block and Tile Com
pany Of this city. and amounts to $4,000.
This is only one of the contracts. IL is
stated. Others will be let from time to
time as the work progresses.
Richmond decided on asphalt block as
against sheet asphalt because the surface
of that city is much broken by hills and 1t
has been found that the block asphalt
wears better on hills where much hauling
Is done than does the sheet asphalt
"A demonstration of this fact is found at
the District building, in front of which
block asphalt paving has recently been in
stalled.

A Successful Smoke Consumer.

Notwithstanding the stringent local reg
ulations governing the smoke nuisance and
their impartial but strict observance on
the part of the health officer 1t appears
that a remedy has been found in the APP
paratus that Mr.. A. Lisner. proprietor of
the Palais Royal, has installed in his es-
Establishment
After thirty days trial of the device
installed by Mr.. VIM. Robinson of this
city, 1t seems evident that the public nor
the authorities need suffer more from the
smoke stacks which are necessary part
OF almost every establishment of the city.
MIR. Lisuer, prior to the installation of
the Robinson device, was probably the
worst sufferer in the District from the
stringent enforcement of the smoke law,
and had tried a number of devices, all of
which proved to be failures but after a
test under the close observation of the
health Office inspectors it has become con-
clusively evident to him that the Robinson
device removed all annoyance from both
the smoke and the interference of the au-
thorities With this idea four of the de-
vices have been installed in the Palais
Royal, and the results are more than sat-
isfactory.
The results already obtained have secured
for Mr.. Robinson orders from establish
ments all over the city.

EFFECT A coRao1l1si
Mother Of Man Charged With Gross
Offense Secure His Release.

Mics Julia D. Jones of 1914 N street south
west had an exciting experience this morn
ing about 1 o'clock near Water and n
streets, when, 1t is alleged, she was insulted
by a young man named Harry Young.
Young was slightly under the influence OF
liquor at the time and his excuse was that
he made mistake in the identity OF the
young woman. Miss Jones defended herself
against his assault and used her hat pin
with telling effect. Wounds In his neck
we're inflicted in several places and his col
lar was blood stained when he appeared In
the Police Court this morning.
Miss Jones was on her way home from
her place of employment in one Of the
hotels and Young was passenger on the
electric trailer. Instead of getting OF the
car at G street he remained and got off at
N street after the young lady had left the
vehicle. He followed her a short distance
from the car tracks and then proceeded 10
put his arms about her.
What do you meanT' Miss Jones asked.
That's all right" said Young.
1t required but an instant for Miss Jones
to give him different view of the matter,
and. as stated, she had to resort to the
use Of her hat pin as weapon OF defense.
She made an cutlery and Young beat hcr
across the arms with his cane.
Il did 1t because you knocked my nat
off, he told Miss Jones this morning.
lied he had made a mistake he made an
effort to get away. The young woman,
however. had no idea Of letting him go un-
punished and did not leave him until she
had caused his arrest.
An information charging Young with as
sault was filed in the Police Court today
and jury trial was demanded. Young s
mother. however, saw Miss Jones and beg
ged her to relent. The parties to the trou-
BILE and their parents discussed the matter,
but 1t was only after the pleading
on the part of Mrs Young and the she'd
ding of many tears that Miss Jones finally
consented to drop the matter upon the pay
ment of $50 to the government by Young.
She told him 1t was only for his mother
sake that she consented to such an ar
rongement.
The case was settled in the manner
stated and the parties left the court.
