GLASS PAVING A FAILURE
Experiments in France Show the Ma
terlaI viii Not Stand the Traf-
fic in Streets.

Seven or eight years ago plant
was established at La lDemi Lune,
suburb about four miles from Lyon
France, for making glass paving ma
terial under the name of pierre de
verre Garchey." After many expert
ments carried out at the factory the
manufacturer applied to the Lyon mu-
nicipality for the right to make trial
on one of the chief thoroughfares.
The necessary authorization was
granted, provided that the inventor
would bear the entire expense of the
undertaking.
The place chosen for laying the
glass pavement was section of the
Place de la RepubIique, where traffic
of cabs, automobiles and wagons of all
kinds is very heavy. The glass bricks
remained in place for less than two
years and were then taken out as they
were in very poor condition, the edges
were all broken, and in many cases
the blocks were split through and
through. The opinion of officials here
at that time was to the effect that
this glass pavement could be used un
der favorable circumstances for side
walks, but not for the middle OF
streets.-Consular and Trade Reports.

Notes from kellnerSyiIIe.

The Kelnersville team met their de-
feat at Denmark last Sunday In a very
poorly played game of base ball. The
crowd was a very rough set of base
ball sports with everybody in the burg
being ready hand to get into the
diamond and show their knowledge
of base ball. At one time when it was
necessary to discuss base ball rule,
the 1912 rule book was used for refer
ence, one Denmark base ball
player took match and wanted TO
burn the rule book and that being
after they found out that they were
wrong. The Denmark team plays al
Kellnersvlle next Sunday and Mgr.
Kelner promises a good clean game of
base ball and it will not be that every
body in the field will interfere with
the ball players. Come Gus strong
boys and cheer and root in good Kell-
nersville style and we will win this
game.
V. Kellner is at Escanaba, Mich, for
a short stay with Dr. j. O. GrooS.
We went to Denmark so strong
But mighty poor score can we show
But our manly honors did we bring
along
And Denmark can't play ball that we
know. Dixon.

Bay were here on Monday.

Bonded Indebtedness
OF State Due in 1915

Atlanta, Oct. IA. Prominent
among the questions of state
finance that will come up during
the incumbency of Governor John
M. Slaton, Will be that of
the states indebtedness. which
amounts to about Three and Three
Quarters Million Dollars, and
and which falls due in 1915.
How the debt is to be handled
is a question that has not yet
been worked out. One sugges-
ton has been made that a special
one mill tax be levied to create
a sinking fund to gradually take
care of the principal of the debt;
another suggestion has been that
the present five-mill tax can be
SO divided as to provide for such
a sinking fund. Under any cir
cumstances it is a big question,
which will require much thought.

40 Days During Year
Riding on Street Cars

Atlanta, Oct. IA. -Atlantians
who work down town and live as
far as fifteen minutes away from
the business section spend about
40 working days of the entire
year riding on the cars, according
to figures just compiled here.
It is figured that the average
business man is on the street car
about an hour day in all. There
are 315 working days in the year,
of which eight hours is an aver
age length. Take one hour for
riding out of every 313 and you
get a fraction less than forty
working days.

Absinthe and Divorce.

Atlanta, Oct. 14.-The argu-
ment that absinthe had been
barred from this country and that
her husband couldn't get any
more of it after a month or two,
had no effect on the decision of
Mrs. E. F. Dwinnell, of this city,
in her suit for divorce.
The charges she brought against
Mr.. Dwinnell were that he was
addicted to the use of the green
liquor, and that when under it's
influence his chief pastime was
to stand her up against a wall
and throw electric light bulbs at
her, laughing in fendish glee
each time one of them hit her and
exploded with a loud pop.
Her attention was called to the
fact that Uncle Sam had removed
her husbands chief temptation
by prohibiting the further impor-
tation of absinthe, but the fact
did not altar her determition to
be separated from him.
IF you had ever heard one Of
those globes explode and crash
into a thousand splinters," she
said to the judge, you would
not be surprised when | tell you
that | wouldn't dare to live with
him again under any circum-
stances.
