Eny rentals and partially from the
tental OF that part OF the &c acres per
mile. which Is not used for actual
road construction.
As laid out. the Dupont Road on
sists OF some seven parts. although
not all CT them will be developed i'm
mediately. the idea being to increase
the size OF the road as the traffic be-
ome heavier. When completed the
road will consist OF a forty foot strip
IN the middle. which will be given
over to automobiles. and on either
side OF the forty foot strip. a fifteen
foot strip, which has been reserved
for trolley lines. Beyond the trolley
lines there will be thirty foot roads
for horse drawn vehicles and heavy
triafftc. Adjoining zach of these last
named roads will be dirt roads. fifteen
feet wide. under which will be laid
water pipes, sewers. telephone and
telegraph condults. etc. thus elimin-
ating any necessity for tearing up the
paved portion OF the road.

utilized for the road. in spite OF the
magnificent width and arrangement.

acres reserved. and IL is from this re-
mafnds< that IL is expected consider
able revenue for road maintenance
can be derived.
Although different systems OF road
construction have been experienced
upon. II is probable that either the BIZ
thulitic or penetration system will be
used. Both OF those systems are alike
at the beginning. the basis OF both be-
ing a concrete foundation about six
Inches deep. which is laid after the
road has been properly graded and
drained. In the bithulitic process the
TOP. dressing. which Is rolled until
Three or four inches thick. is compos-
ed OF crushed stone which has been
thoroughly coated with asphalt by be-
ing run through n mixing machine.
In the penetration process the crushed
stone Is graded over the foundation
and melted asphalt is then poured on
top Of II.
In either case a top course OF as
phalt and sand Is carefully applied
and rolled and this not only acts as a
binder and levels any slight ineauah-
ties OF the road surface. but serves 70

trsting the road structure.

.HERDIC SERVICE

Reorganization Scheme.

Desirability of herdic automobile serv-
ice In Seventeenth street to the Cont
mental d. A. r, Hail. the Pan-American
building, and the Corcoran Gallery OF
Art, In connection with the proposed
reorganization and betterment of herdic
service will be advanced by members of
the Daughters of the American Revolu-
tion, who will take the matter up with
Mrs. Matthew Scott, president general
OF the Daughters. Mrs. Scott will be
asked to urge herdic service, as head of
the d. A. r.
Mrs. Lyman Swormstedt wife of the
physician, and former secretary of the
Daughters, is one OF the enthusiastic ad-
vocates of herdic service under better
conditions than now obtain in Sixteenth
street to the Continental Hall.
Mrs. Scott appealed to the District
Commissioners some time ago for a
street railway spur down Eighteenth
street." said Mrs. Swormstedt. but the
likelihood of this being achieved does
not seem to be great and the herdic
proposition may be a tangible one in
connection with the attempt to make the
herdic company improve its sixteenth
street service.
THE desirability of transportation IA
cilities to the buildings named Is OBJ
vious. There are many clerks in our
building and many in the Pan-American
who would regularly patronize good
service. Moreover, there are hundreds
of daily visitors to these buildings who

many more patrons.

Mrs. Herbert had become infatuated
with a man named Albert King, who is
employed In the Agricultural Depart
ment.

support offering no defense. He was
found to be too I'll to go to Occuquan
and was sent to the Washington Asylum
Hospital for two months. In the mean
