fFRIDAY EVENING, DEC. %

TIE dispatch from Richmond in yes
terday's Gazette announcing the death
OF Colonel Morton Marye was read
with sincere regret by all his friends
and acquaintance in Alexandria, his
old home. A few well-known facts IN
connection with his long and useful
life are about all the material needed
for his biography. In youthful life hc
was a faithful and responsible clerk in
what was then Alcxandrla's most
prominent business house. In early
manhood he manifested the same traits
as (. merchant, and at the call to arms
he laid aside his commercial calling
and marched forth in defense OF his
state and country. He returned at the
close of the conflict MANNED for life,
but with all the mental vigor and de-
termination which was NATURAL to HIM
before his terrible experience in the
clash OF war. His fellow-citizens had
the same confidence in his abilities as
when he was member Of the mercantile
community, and when the blight Of re-
construction had blown away and Nlr-
ginia was again in the union, he was
chosen by large majority TO fill the
important position Of clerk OF the court
of Alexandria, tho duties Of which he
performed faithfully. He was even
tuallv chosen first auditor OF the state,
and. as an evidence OF the satisfaction
he rendered, ne had been bis own sue
cessor for twenty-seyen years. Colonel
Maryc made annual visits TO his old
home. never relinquishing his citizen
ship. and his hearty laugh at the many
greetings he received were pleasant IN
cidents to him and his many friends
and acquaintance. 1t was said in by
gone years, There are plenty OF
good men in Rome" Virginia has
always had her quota, aud may Colonel
Marye's successor in the important
Office he filled so long be of the same
genus as that of the deceased.

FIRE IN NORFOLK.

Carelessness ofOdd Fellows smoking
in the lodge room in Odd Fellows Hal
in Norfolk last night, caused the de-
struction OF the building. AT 2:St
O'Clock blaze, to subdue which the
entire fire fighting force OF the city was
called out, was still raging and adj
joining property was in danger. The
hall, fiye-story building, is located
on Church street in the center OF retail
clothing and shoe stores. The fire
was discovered shortly after midnight
in the lodge room OF Brambleton
Lodge OF Odd Fellows. Janitor James
w. Thompson said careless smokers
threw lighted cigars and cigarette
stumps on the carpet. The firemen
made desperate efforts to keep the
flames from spreading to adjoining
property. The building was formerly

JAPAN AFTER
TRADE IN PERU

WASHINGTON, September 10
Japan appears to be steadily moving
forward in a systematic policy of eX-
tending her influence and trade on the
eastern shores Of the Pacific ocean.
Advices to the State Department from
its officers in Peru are that the Japa~
nese special embassy, which was sent
to Chile to participate in the centen-
airy celebration of independence, spent
some time in Peru, en- route to San
tiago and was received with great cor
diality.
The party was headed by the son of
the Marquis Inouye, late Japanese EN-
bassador to Germany, and it was eX-
planned that the purpose was to study
the commercial conditions in Peru
with a view to trade extension.

and apparently he felt much relieved,

seemed this feeling that several of
them got together and decided to sum-
mon q Chinese doctor, but were per-
suaded from doing so in the sugges-
ton that the ethics of the medical pro-
fession in this and other countries
would prevent him from responding
to a call unless the attending physi-

ious Chinese officials decided to place
their entire trust in DR.. Allen and pa
tiently await the result
Despite his extreme caution, how
ever, DR.. Allen was surprised on one
of his return trips to the Princes
apartments to find his patient prepar-
ing to partake of a meal that might
have tut any sick man in danger.
Expressing a desire for something to
eat during the absence of his physi-
clan, the prince had summoned his
own chef, who in few minutes later
was in consultation with Matre dHo-
tel Lieb and Chef Victor Hirtzler of
the ST. Francis, to whom he was eX-
planning how his masters food should
be prepared. And to the amazement
of Lieb and Hirtzler, who had been
suggesting to each other choicest OF
soups ard viands that would appeal to
the stomach of a fever-stricken pa
tient, the royal chef handed over this
order:
Portion of broiIed ham.
Two pork chops.
Three fried eggs.
Maccaron soup.
"And they must all be we'll cooked,
we'll DONE added the royal chef
But the ham-chops-eggs-soup COM
bination never reached a dieting state,
for DR.. Allen, learning of the order
promptly countermanded it, and in
stead pacified his Royal Highness' APP
petite with specially prepared broth,
toast and poached eggs.

Ono Constructed Of a Material Durable

In trying to devise road which will
stand motor traffic. Many new meth
dds have been tried with varying de-
grees Of success, but none Of them
seems to be perfectly satisfactory.
Ii broken stone Is to form the wear
ing surface. then some means must
be found to hold the binding particles
so firmly that they cannot be sucked
out. and sufficient strength must be
given to the mass to enable 1t to with
stand the sliding action OF the wheels
at bends and turns. Several kinds of
tar macadam answer fairly well, but
they are expensive.
1t would seem that the most promis-
ing kind of road for heavy automobile
traffic Is what is called durax in Eng
land. 1t is q pavement of three inch
irregular cubes OF hard stone laid in
small segments of circles.
These stones can be cut by machin-
cry and are comparatively ineXpen-
sive. They are laid without grout,
but there seems to be no reason for
its omission except the cost. Great
quantities Of this kind OF pavement
have been laid in Germany.

The good roads era has begun In
many states, and already the steam

the roadside and the digging out of
the original roadway are familiar
sights in many OF the eastern states
The roads built are generally Of ap-

fields and hills OF the rural sections.
These roads are perfectly built. and

other rutepayers contentedly sit back
and feel contented. This is serious
error and one being made in many
states.
Many fail to realize that whenever
dust is raised a road is being destroy
I'd. This is particularly the case on
smooth mncadam surfaces, where there
is nothing to hold the dust on the
road and where every cross wind
blows or any loose material.
AS soon as roads are built arrange
ments should be made to keep them in

the results were eminently satisfac-
