from her grandmother, will be about
$135.000 which is approximately $4,000
more than they were worth in 1906
when l assumed control of Miss
Heaths estate, six years ago.
"Extravagance and poor advice on
the part of her friends has been the
cause of her starting this action. Since
l have acted in the capacity of guar
dian and trustee for Miss Heath she
has had everything she desired.
THE first trouble came about two
weeks ago at the home, 300 Roseville
avenue, where, under the terms of the
will of her father, / was to live until
she became "a years of age. She is
now 1917
After 1 married in 1909 | did not
feel free to live there without payment
of some money, so from that time on
L paid into the estate $40 weekly, $40
for myself and $40 for my wife, for
board.
"One night about two weeks ago
Miss Heath made some remarks at the
dinner-table about the way her money
was being handled.
Miss Heath CbIded.
Il gently chided her, as did my wife,
for her statements, and the next thing
l knew was the request for the ac-
counting.
We'll, it's ready and will show that
the inventory of the estate of Mrs
Margaret c. Heath, the girls grand
mother, left her SILL S65.91. While at
the present time the estate is worth
$l15,052.11, an increase after all ex-
penses of the household and of Miss
Heath have been paid of $31S6.20. While
in the guardianship fund through the
grandfather out of an estate valued at
$21, ,1S1.0S at the time of appraisal 1t is
now worth $23,221.47. an increase of
81, ,04O39.
Further than these figures l have
little more to say. Miss Heath has
never suffered the loss of penny OF
her inheritance. 1t is worth more now
than it ever has been, and that is
even after a lot of her extraVagances
as to dress and jewelry has been taken

Did Miss Heath have charge 40
counts at local stores?' Mr. Maddox
was asked.
"She did" was the answer. land her
bills were paid promptly"
What did they amount to?" was the
next question
Mr. Maddox sidestepped that one
and said the answer would probably
develop at the hearing in the Orphans
Court before Judge Martin tomorrow

S2O0,OOO PAVING
 CONTRACT GIVEN
Birmingham Concern Now Has S7OO,OOO Worth of
 Street Work on Hand

That the largest single contract ever given in Florida had been granted by Key West to. the Southern Asphalt and Construction company of Birmingham was the announcement of Eugene Ffes' president of that corporation, yesterday. The contract was secured by Vice Pres ident John Copeland and John Doneison, who returned from Key West yesterday. The contract is for $200OO0 in asphalt blocks and brick paving on the island.
 Mir Fies said that the order of Key West ran the total amount of work being handled now by the Birmingham concern up to the interesting figure of practically s70o,O0O.
 The Birmingham concern has been awarded the following contracts: Bir- mingham, $2500oO (under way); Key West, Fla, sso0.0O0; Jackson, Miss. s50.ooc; Montgomery, s50oo0; Rome, Ga, s3o,oao; Decatur, Ala ss6ooo; Dublin, Ga, sA.OoO; Jacksonville, Fla, ss6,000 The exact total of work Is s6s2.OoO.
 The local concern, which is exerting wide influence In street work, is less than year old and is composed wholly or Birmingham citizens The company was formed by the absorption of some other contracting firms.
 MT. Copeland in speaking of the Key West brick portion of the work said that the Birmingham brick could not be used in that work. We must get that com modity from Baltimore" said MT. Cope. land. "The freight rates to Key West between Birmingham and Baltimore differ so much that Birmingham cannot com. pete there. The rail haul from here is prohibitory, while the water haul from Baltimore makes that city far under us. Although we can sell brick far cheaper than Baltimore we cannot sell and com pete with the water haul''
 The local contractors are of the opin- ion that business will continue to boom in street work in the south.
 we have been patronized literally am quite beyond our hopes or expectations, said MT. Fies. And every scrap of work las been against bids of careful competi- tors and acute business men. The suc- cess is due principally to the fact that Birmingham Is putting out a better gra1e of work than the other fellow

WITH THE SCRIBES

Cleveland News: Many little incidents Of the ball field never get beyond the ken of few who happen to see the occur renee. and as a result there are many actions of the players which are mis- understood.
 In the first game with Detroit at shibe park, Philadelphia, Friday, Ty Cobb leaped over the right field ropes and pulled down a long drive of Mur- rhy's. After the catch it was thought by those on the stands and bleachers that Cobb had spiked somebody when he landed in the crowd. Two innings later Tyrus Raymond went back to the same spot, and there were various ru- mors about.
 One of the most persistent was that Cobb had gone back to trounce some body for unkind remarks about him. while another was that he had serious rate, the feeling was strong against Ty for endangering spectators by such a rash chance.
 Instead the great center fielder of the Tigers did a little act of kindness which shows him in his true character and rot as the rowdy that some would have the fans believe.
 When Cobb leaped through the air and over the ropes he did not land upon spectators, but his spiked shoes did go through new straw hat of one of the crowd. Ty stopped in the crowd long enough to take good look at the owner end state that he was awfully sorry tha' 1t happened.
 Then the game went on. Detroit came into the bat and Cobb took the oppor- tunity to go to his locker in the clur house. When next Detroit went out on the field he played through the half inning and then instead of coming in to the bench with the team Cobb went over tc the crowd at the place where he had jumped. Then the fight rumor went ur and the crowd surged toward the spot cobb did not go to fight. however. He nunted ,lp the man whose straw hat he had ruined and quickly found him.
 .sI'm mighty sorry about that hat" h. said. q don't want it to be a loss for you and I want you to take this. So saving he slipped a s bill in the spectator's hand. The man protested anc said it was all right, and the few who happened to be near enough to hear anc see what happened changed their mir.SI on the spot. Cobb made friends of al who witnessed this act.
