DAVENPORT

Poor Cement Was Used.-The open
ing of the various trenches III the down
town streets, to install the underground
conduits, is showing the need of better
inspection for Davenport paving jobs.
Even more important than good brick
and hard or soft asphalt, is a good
foundation for paving, and the fact
that this city has got very poor returns
for its money in the sO-called concrete
foundations that have been put in here,
has been proven frequently when yari-
GUS stretches of street were dug into.
Layers of cement foundation about as
hard as mortar. that a shovel will so
through without the aid of Il pick, and
too thin a layer even if good cement
were used, are to be found in entirely
too many cases. If paving were better
laid here in Davenport the necessity
of the renewal of what we have down
would be much farther off than it is at
present.
Stuckey is Slugged.-Onc of the
Tost dastardly assaults recorded in
Davenport was made shortly after 9
o'clock Thursday night on Sam j.
