Successful Operation of Mu-

that time the civic authorities deemed it
desirable to establish a municipal plant.

purchased.
Experimenting showed that the best
mixture for wearing surface of an asphalt

asphalt used have been Ventura. Alcatraz

from Venezuela. for 1909 from Mexico
The preparation for an asphalt pave
ment in Winnipeg is thoroughly made. The
street is excavated eleven inches. Soft and
spongy places are dug out and refied with
good earth, well rammed. CuTbing is laid
on grades and lines given by the engineer
in trenches of the required depth, filled
with broken, coarse. macadam stone. Upon
the subgrade Is laid bed of Portland ce-
ment concrete four and half inches thick,
made by first mixing dry and then making

RUGS FROM THE ORIENT

through Asiatic Turkey and Persia per

on Persian rugs by Consul Frederick Sim

details:
The shipments from Bagdad to the
United States were more than for five years
previous, though the supply of real an
tique Persian rugs is diminishing fast
About $3.50, 600 worth Of rugs came to Bag

than one-fourth were old Nearly all the
genuine antiques, however, go to America.
Shiraz, Hamadan, Tabriz. kermaasha'
Bokhara, Kulyahi and Sina are the kinds
of carpets mostly sent to the United States.
The local prices paid for such rugs range
from 81 so to SO 20 a square metre for or

grades and sS so and upward for extra
fine antiques. all depending on age, quality
and condition.

HOPES WIDOW WILL MARRY
The Will Of Sheriff Holmes purcell
Has Interesting Provision

Winchester, Va, Juiy 1.-THE will
OF Sheriff Clark Holmes Purcell, of
Frederick county, who died last week
following a surgical operation for APP
pendicitis, was admitted to record on
Saturday in the circuit clerks office,
and in some respects is a remarkable
document. After making pEovisions
for the payment, of funeral expenses
and number of requests to adopted
children and nephews and neices, he
directs his executor, Harry r. Kern,
to invest the revenues of the estate Tor
the benefit of his widow, Mrs. Bertha
Purcell, and expresses the hope that
she will marry again if it will be to
her happiness, and that she and her
husband enjoy his property during
her lifetime At her death the home
place is to be converted into the
"Clark Purcell Home, - for aged and
iudigeaI white yemen and unfortu-
nate Young women, the horse to be

sisting of the sheriff treasurer and
clerk of Frederick county. All funds
over $50 accommodating during a year
are to be divided among the overseers
of the poor and distributed among

the county. The estate of the late
sheriff is worth between $50, 900 and
$50, 900.

sFoR SWEET CHARITY"

1t is now stated with that serious
ness with which announcements are
promulgated by railroads of weighty
subjects, that all the business known
as s'commuting," that is carrying pas
sengers near large cities, back and
forth for less money than is charged
the passenger W no occasionally rides, or
takes the longer distance ticket-has
been done at loss. This sort of traffic
has been going on for years, it is an
immense business, especially near
crowded centers like New York, Chi
cago, Philadelphia and Boston. If
these railroads have been losing mon
ey in this business they should, I'VE
think, have been stopped by their
managers long ago. This business has
been supposedly profitable, but when we
think how vast it is and how immense
must have been Tie sums lost, because
the loss must be figured ON each pas
senger, then we begin for the first
time to grasp the breadth and scope of
the philanthropy of these ''good corpo-
rations. Now inasmuch as the roads
have raised the Communication rates on
this preteXt, the Interstate Commerce
Commission is going to look into the
business for them, and see just how
much they have lost, and if possible
let them devise some plan by which
they may not go broke over this con-
tribution to charity.
