MARKET ST. WOOD BLOCK
IDEA BOBS UP AGAIN.

The Market Street Business Mems
Improvement Association will end a
delegation before the Board of Works
tomorrow to ask that Market street,
from the Court House to the Pennsyl-
vania station, be paved with wood
blocks. The proposition has been put
up to the Mayor before and vetoed.
The discussion of various pavements
suggested narrowed down to wood
block and grouted granite. 1t was
declared that the merchants of Mar
ket street, Philadelphia, had done 20
per cent. more business since the
blocks were laid in that t~horoughfare
due, It was stated, to the suppression
of traffic noises.
In response to the urging of Lee
O%ttolengui, president of the associa-
ton, every member who is able will
be present at the meeting of the board
tomorrow.

With his mind fast failing, john

In New York last night, after three
days of wandering about the country
without money today sits at his home,
SIG Highland avenue, vainly ~endeayor-
ing to recall the experiences he en-
countered while he was away.
He has a vague idea that in some
manner he has suffered and wandered
away from his friends. When he left,
where he went and whom lie encoun-
tered he does not know. He remem-
bers tina he was endeavoring to find
some one and some place. just who
and what place he does not know. But
whatever h%ardships he has undergone
they have worked little harm upon him
physically.
Today Mr.. Adair vas unable TO see
anyone, except members Of the family.
John Adair wandered from home last
Sunday. No trace of him could be
found, and his children secured the
~neighborhood in automobiles, vainly
attempting to discover their missing
father after he had been discharged by
| the Paterson police, who picked him
I'D Sunday night. Several rumors
came that he was seen in various
towns, but it was not until yesterday
that anything definite was known,
when word came from Bellevue Hos
pital, New York, that a man who gave
his name as John Adair had been found
on the steps of the Municipal Lodging
House at Twenty-f1fth street and East
river, suffering from hunger and ex-
posture.
He was removed in an ambulance to
the hospital, where he speedily gained
his strength. There he said that he had
a son, Montague Adair, living at Fifth
avenue and Fifteenth street. No such
person lives there. The police were
notified and the authorities in this city
were informed. His son, Montague
Adair, of Brooklyn. Immediately went
to Bellevue and recognized the patient
as his father. Father and son arrived
in Newark last evening.
His daughter had everything ready
to receive a sick man, but when the
w~anderer returned seemingly in good
health joy in the Highland avenue
home was ~unbounded.
He seemed to know US all and has
q vague idea of being away" said his
daughter this morning.
He sat with us last evening and
talked as he did before he went away.
He never mentioned his absence, and,
of course, we are doing all we can to
help him forget it,"

Mrs. Sullivan was skeptical as to
