Washington, oct. 19.-The special

as we are concerned the matter was
dropped. I do not see how a Pitts

NEW KIND OF BRICK.
They Will BE Made in Topeka for
Paving Purposes.


A new paving brick is being manu-
featured by the Capital City Vitrified
Brick company. 1t consists of a brick
with rounded corners having width
of Il inches instead of the square cor
ners and the Is inch width manufac-
tured here in the past and in common
use.
new die has been purchased and
installed by the brick company for the
moulding of the brick ON the form
which has been recommended by City
Engineer AIcCabe.
The advantages which the new brick
has over the old kind is in its addi-
tional wearing surface and the absence
of any chipping on the edge, due to the
rounded edges.
A sample of the brick is on view in
the city engineers Office.
This new brick. in my Judgment,
said James McCabe. city engineer, lis
the best specimen of a payer that has
been produced in Topeka. I have
never seen a better looking brick It
should stand better wear than the
brick which we have got down. I
don't believe that the cost of the brick
will amount to much more than the
old kind
There is no question in my mind
but what the contractors are making
as much money on this low price for
which the paving is done as in the
years past when the prices We're higher.
They are getting their brick much low
er from the brck manufacturers and
this accounts for the drop. If I could
find out exactly how much they are
paying for their brick I would revise

Washington. Oct. 1s-Afr RockhiH,
American minister to China, has sent to
the state department the translation of an
imperial Chinese edict, published August
81, 1895. The edict states that whereas it
has been shown that the American gov
eminent in the future is willing to give
the most courteous treatment to all Chi
nese students, travellers, teachers and meF-
chants, there is no reason why the people
should go on with their boycott against
American goods And on account of this
the viceroys and governors of the differ
ent provinces will be held responsible for
any disturbance, and are ordered to ar
rest any person making himself guilty of
such.
