New York, March 9-In the pres
ence of a considerable gathering of
interested spectators, the keel was
laid at the navy yard in Brooklyn to-
day for the twenty thousand ton bat

testimony of this witness will close
the case of the prosecution. The gov

Grades of Roads.

The grade is the most important fac-
tor to be considered in the location OF
roads. The smoother the road surface
the less the grade should be. Whether
the road be constructed Of earth, stone
or gravel, steep grades should always
be avoided if possible. They become
covered at times with coatings Of ice
or slippery soil, making them very diff
cult to ascend with loaded vehicles, "a
well as dangerous to descand. They
allow water to rush down at such a
rate as to wash great gaps alongside
or to carry the surfacing material
away. AS the grade increases In steep

The Demonstrated Value Of Probation.
Atlanta Constitution.

SShotAOutiou.
Atlanta's system of probation in the
case of adult offenders has passed the
stage of experiment.
It's value, abundantly demonstrated
in the recent annual report, of Proba-
ton Officer 8. J. Coogler, can no longer
be questioned.
Yet, strangely enough, council has
heen asked to consider the PROPOSED to
abolish this department, and the matter
Is likely to come up for action at an
early meeting.
In view of the actual good that has
been done, not only for the proba-
TONERS themselves, but for their fami-
lies at times when many of them were
in actual want, it Is difficult to under
stand how this PROPOSED can be met
with any serious consideration.
Rather should it be the pleasure of
council to encourage and extend a
work which has given results instead
of promises.
During the year Just closed Probation
/ Officer Coogler, as appears from his re-
port; visited and rendered assistance
in various ways to no less than $50
families. More often this assistance
has taken the shape of exercising a limi-
ted guardianship over some hayward
father, husband or con, the product of
whose labor has been diverted by dlssi-
patton from the legitimate channels of
family support.
In forty-siX of these cases the persons
subjected to this guardianship were
more or less babitual drunkards, yet
| t1rl6nr nfHnnr T<>0plorto rpofohf,l aaro
no less than twenty-nine of them have
become good citizens and have remain
ed so during average period Of eight
months, rendering regular support to
those dependent upon them. And
even in other cases reform was effected
after the second arrest.
Officer Coogler has likewise dealt
with numerous cases of petty lawless-
ness, such as %disorderly conduct, and,
again those of more serious nature,
such as abandonment of wife and chill
dreD, neglect and mistreatment of
families, and the results show that In
q very large percentage of these cases
the probationers have forsaken their
evil ways and are now diligently and
determinedly at work.
Officer Coogler's work has been 8
boon to wives and mothers and chill
dren. There are many cases in which
fines and imprisonment for minor
offenses work their most serious hard.
ship upon needy and dependent
women and children.
The city hasvery wisely established
a means whereby those convicted of
first offense may be given opportunity
to retrieve their faults and become
again good members of society.
Instead of abandoning this policy it
should rather be extended to all those
simple cases, Involving no serious in
fraction of the law, where judgment
dictates there is likelihood of reform.
Chaingangs and jails have come to
be well-known criminal makers; they
should be employ / only in necessary
cases or as a last report.
There is no question that Officer
Coogler's work has resulted in q ma
terial decrease Of crime.
In place Of adjustment, it should be
given councils highest Endorsement.
