to the present mayor who replies say
ing:
AT the time our concrete pavement
was laid last summer understand the
parties who had the contract for the
same were threatened with a suit for
infringements on certain alleged pat
ents, but it didn't brighten the con-
tractors in the least.
Il can best answer all your ques-
tions by saying that we are now pre-
pairing to pave one of the principal res
idence streets in the city and that
with this same kind of pavement. So
far the pavement has proven to be
durable and is entirely satisfactory
The Bozeman experience with a
gravel top, the LeMars experience with
a sand top and the Mason City speci-
fications for a sand top were all furn-
ished by the Northwestern Cement
Company, of Mason City, in response
to an inquiry for proper specifications
for durable concrete pavement. If
Marshalltown would cut out the words
"granitod" eliminate the exact for
mulas as to sizes and percentages of

could get the best concrete paving in
the world. real granitoid in face, under

Free Competition in Paving Can Be
Secured Very Easily.
A letter from the mayor of Bozeman,
Mont, received today, recalls the ex-
perience of property owners in that
city with paving. City Engineer G: M.
Thorpe writes that:
Elm 1907 the city council created an
district for the purpose
of paving with creosoted wood block
on a concrete foundation. This was OBJ
jected to and defeated by the property
owners who objected to the cost and
wished further time to investigate. A
committee of property owners was
then appointed to carry on investiga-
lions and report to the city council
the kind of pavement they desired.
These Investigations We're continued by
the committee and the city engineer
until early in 1908, when the commit
tee reported unanimously in favor Of
concrete pjavements.
"Plans and specifications were at
once prepared and bids asked for. In
preparing specifications 1t .was thought
best to ask each bidder to submit the
details of construction with his bid, as
ii was claimed that patent had been
granted on concrete payementS."
Then the city engineer tells how they
a.-oided patented formulas as to spe-
c:fic sizes and percentages by simply
specifying a five and one-half Inch
base of one. part cement to six OF grav-
ell with a wearing surface one and one
half inches thick, one part cement, one
part crushed boulder, or pea gravel.
and one part COARSE. clean sand, with
the crushed stone limited not to exceed

ulated nor any patented formula for

JOHN A. DILLON, OF TIMBER
CREEK, HANGS HIMSELF IN
KANSAS.
HAD SHOWN SYMPTOMS
OF MENTAL TROUBLE
Well to Do Farmer, While on Visit to
Relatives, Kills Himself in Nephew's
Barn-Neck Broken by the Fall
- Body Sent Here For inter.
ment.

While visiting at the home of rcla-
tives at Atlanta. Kan, John A. Dillon,
la well-known and we'll to-do farmer
of Timber Creek township, while tenn
porarily insane, took his own life by
hanging. Mr.. Dillon had not been
strong mentally since an illness dat
ing back ten or twelve years, when no
passed thru a severe attack of typhoid
pneumonia. Shortly after he recov-
cred he attempted to take his life with
a butcher knife at the home of DR..
A. Angelsberg, now of this city, but
then living at Haverhill.
Mr.. Dillon was 81 years old, and
had been making his home with a
niece, Mrs. Fred Lutes. two miles south
of Ferguson. On Feb. 16 he left for
Atlanta, Kan, to visit two other
nephews, G. O. Martin and Fred Hen
sen, and to look after matters per-
tanning to the settlement of his moth
ers estate.
No Evidence Of Alteration.
| After reaching Kansas relatives
there noticed nothing out of the way
with Dillon's mental condition. and did
not suspect that he was brooding over
fancied troubles that nearly always
took the turn of land deals. Dillon was
last seen alive at 1880 Friday morning,
when he entered the Hensen barn.
When Mr.. Hensen returned from the
fields at noon, and went to the barn to
feed his horses, he discovered Dillon's
body, cold in death. The man had hung
himself with a baling wire. and the
neck had been broken by the fall. The
coroner of Cowley county summoned a
jury and held an inquest, resulting in
a verdict of suicide.
Was Worth $4,000.
Dillon, who was bachelor, was
worth probably $4,000, represented
largely by land. He. owned a fine 1907
acre farm one and :. half miles
south of Ferguson, besides land in
Kansas, Minnesota, and Lexington, KY.
Aside from his nephews at Atlanta,
and the niece with Whom he made his
home near Ferguson. Mr.. Dillon is sur
vived by two sisters and brother, and
several other nieces and nephews. The
