4LArE WAR NEWS N pRIEF.

The meagerness or dispatches from
the war centers of Europe appears TO
indicate that the censorship has be-
come strlcter than ever. Neither from
England nor France is any hint al
lowed. to pass over the cables as to the
progress OF events or as to the posi-
tions or movements Of the huge armies
of German, French, Belgian, Austrian,
Russian and British troops, which. 1t
is assumed, must now be within strik-
Ing distance.
A dispatch to Amsterdam tells OF
terrific artillery firing north OF Liege.
The latest reports Of the fighting in
Belgium indicated that the Germans
have made some changes in their plans
for reaching France and will go
through the heart Of Belgium.
A Brussels dispatch says the bulk of
the German army is leaving Liege and
advancing toward the French frontier
through the heart of Belgium.
The forts at Liege, according to
latest advices, are still holding,
Germans deny stories of enormous
losses in fighting before Liege FORTS
and say that Germans were far out
numbered by the Belgians.
Reports OF heavy artillery firing
north OF Liege have been received.
French reports are to the effect that
the German and French forces are in
contact all along the border line, but
conflicting stories OF the outcome of
the various skirmishes are given.
The French Foreign Minister de-
clares all the surrounding forts intact,
and that only small force of Ger
mans entered the town itself under
cover of darkness.
The German commander at Liege
denies the loss of 10000 in his effort
to take the forts there. He says they
will be taken without the loss of a
man as soon as Germany heavy ar
tillery arrives.
Belgium anticipates an attempt by
Germany to cross Dutch territory and
has requested Holland to state her
intentions regarding the resistance
to branch of her neutrality.
Sveaborg, the great Russian fortress
In Finland, awaits a bombardment or
battle, as the commander has or
dered all civilians to leave there and
also Helsngfore.

OFFERING AN tx
cEPTIoNAL o.

Under this caption there. late, .Geor1
peared in the Philadelphia Commercial
Journal All article which the NEWS
reproduces which will interest many
OF the older readers of this paper. Mr.
Headley, the president of the company
spoken of, was for several years a res
ident of Louisa, where he married a
sister Of Mrs. G. w. Wroten and Capt.
Frank Freese. His friends here will
be glad to read of his enterprise and
success. His mother. Mrs. Helen
Headley and he were at one time own
ers of the big coal and timber land a
few miles above this city, known as
the Headley tract.
Among the important concerns
making their headquarters in Phila-
delphia may be mentioned the Headley
Good Roads Company, with offices and
plant at Thirtieth and Spruce Streets,
which concern is Offering an excep-
tional service to those interested in the
building of good roads.
THE company while not in the gem
eral sense Of the word a road con-
tractor, although it has at times taken
contracts for this work, is better known
as manufacturer Of asphalts and as
phaltic oils, as we'll as other products
for the building Of modern highways
and keeping them in proper condition.
1t hRs plant fully equipped for the
manufacture of all kinds of oils, etc,
and is especially well known for its
Bicomac Pavement which Is in reality
an asphalt road with a concrete base,
but in the case Of Bicomac Pavement
the asphalt is worked while cold and
not heated as is commonly the case.
AS result II Is easier to lay this road
and as it is in every way the equal of
the hot asphalt construction, road con-
tractors will do well to investigate it.
"At the same time the company man
features special products for mac
adam, concrete and gravel roads, as
well as dust allaying products, etc.
The company is also well known for
its III. G. r., No. and H. G. r. No. 2,
for patching and general repair work
on roads These products are used
without heating of binder or stone, all
mixing being done cold at the road
side.
zone very valuable feature of the
company's business is the manufacture
of special products for road builders.
y
in the business and the facilities built
UP by the management, the Headley
Good Roads Company is at all times
ready to manufacture to order all
kinds of special asphalts, emulsions
and road oils, and in addition to it's
own complete line of products, it is
thus able to offer a service that is not
to be had elsewhere in the United
States. With the experienced men at
its head the company is always glad to
confer with road builders or others in
terested and will furnish specifications
and other data as desired.
THE business is under the direction
of William t. Headley. President, who
is well-known in the industry as an
expert of the highest order, and in
making this mention of the matter we
can strongly recommend the company
to such of our readers as may desire
something special in the line in which
it is engaged
