SURFACE
 BEING LAID ON THIS END OF NEW ROADWAY

"The Hot Stuff" the binder the surfacing, in other words the Bithu. nthic top coat of the roadway between the city limits of Bisbee and the town of Warren, is being laid Work was started on this section of the road yesterday at the Bisbee city limits and is being rushed on its way along Naco Road.
 True to the prediction of the Cali fornia and Arizona Construction Co.,, which had the contract to lay the Bi- tulithic pavement, work was started on time and the difference in appear ance between the paved roadway and that which is unpaved is remarkable.
 WOrkmen. for some days past and since the completion of the actual grading work. have been busy laying the crushed rock base. This was fol- lowed by the heavy roller which mashed it into place and leveled it off. Yesterday, and throughout the day, wagons loaded with the patented pave ment were to be seen making their way up Naco road from the place where it is being unloaded and placed upon the rock base
 The base is now in place from where the hot stuff is being laid to 9 point near the west end of the Beer Garden in Johnson Addition The contractors then jumped to point opposite the gas plant and started lay ing the base there and have complet ed it. practically, to the bridge From there on it will be rushed to compile ton It is understood that the inter- vals will be taken up later and com pleted in a hurry so as not to tie up traffic any more than is absolutely necessary.
 Traffic is having considerable trou- ble as it is. In some places the road way is just wide enough for the ear tracks and the pavement This nee sssitates regular traffic regulations. 1 A man stands at a point along the ued-up section and holds traffic at one end while vehicles are coming through from the other Street car traffic was troubled somewhat but owing to the character of the roadway these delays are impossible of elimination and will cease the minute the surfac- ! ing is completed

APPRECIATION IS

J. D. Harreu. of Wolf City. Texas. father of the late J. F. Haueu and Mrs. J. P. Harell. wife of the de- ceased. returned to Bisbee last even ing from Tombstone for a brief stay before returning to their home. They had been to Tombstone to appear at the trial of w. w. Kermeen. the as- sassin of J. F. Harrel. and whom the jury yesterday morning found guilty of murder in the first degree, sentence of death being passed upon him.
 "I wish to extend my heartfelt thanks and appreciation to the kind people of Bisbee who have been SO considerate of us and whose sympathy with us in our bereavement was eN- pressed in SO many ways l wish also to express deep appreciation of the work of former City Marshall Watkins John Foster, his assistant on the case. Officer Billy Graham and others who were engaged in solving the mystery which surrounded the death of my son in the beginning We feel deeply grateful for the work that was done and the final result that the. fine ar rangement of the evidence by District Attorney Gilman brought about. after this evidence had been placed in his hands by the officers.
 Mrs. Harrell wife of my son, joins with me in these expressions. She is much worn by her grief and the trip we have made. It was, of course,

''WHITE LISTD SYSTEM SUPPLEMENTED WITH
 OTHER GOOD IDEAS

While the recently inaugurated sys- tenn of white listing the habitual drunkards of Bisbee has proven more than a success. City Marshal James Allison. has made some improvement Ito it and extends Co the people at large in the city, the offer of further help
 According to the marshal the amount of drunkenness among the "soaks" has diminished to a remarka- ble degree in the past few weeks or since the order went into effect that none of the saloons could sell certain men anything to drink
 Allison has learned. however from some families that father. brother, uncle or other relation is in need of straighteening up. In such cases. where he has found that the complaint is just he has supplemental the list already with the saloons with the names of others This has made a distinct difference in several families in the district and city
 The marshal says that any transac- tiOns of this kind he may have with anyone will be kept strictly connden- tial, and offers this help to those who might desire it.
 "A great many families" said the marshal, would like to hve my help in this matter but they are timid lest ! publish names and other facts about the case. This is the tarthest from my purpose ] ann conducting this matter along the strictesr lines of se- crecy and there is absolutely no pub licity given to it. l make an unquar- fled offer to help those who may need lie in this direction"
 While the marshal is very optfmis- tic over the scheme and assured of its success, Inc is sure that there have been some abuses of it. The saloon men of the city took hold of the sys- tenn with alacrity because it promotes temperance, and eliminates many of the chief abuses of the liquor business But there others known and unknown to the chief and his force. who have gone into the saloons and purchased liquor and brought 1t out to those who have been barred from the saloons This offence according to Allison. win be treated in Che same light as would saloon man who should yio- late 1t.

I. Richmond, Dec, 19-Richmond city
PAID to the State of Virginia total
Of s87O,915.97 in taxes last year,
nearly one sixth of the total gross.
revenues of the State. ;, Nineteen
cities and forty counties paid to the
State all the revenues for the conduct
of the State goyernmert--that is, the
excess Of revenues paid, BY them. snf-
feed to pay all EXPENSES Of the State:
government and covered the deficit Of
Sixty counties, that being the num-.
hcruof counties which cost the State
$459,414 ST in excess of the total
which they paid.
There are forty counties which
raid S472,3G1 10 in excess of the
amounts paid them by the State.
These forty counties paid to the
State treasury a total Of Sl2,946.5l
more than the remaining sixty
counties received. In other words the
counties Jumped paid their own way.
Tho cities of the State paid total
of s2,7O7,8O1 OF more than they re-
reived from the State.
Here are some of the counties
which are living at the expense OF
ihe State, being unable by reason of
the abnormally low assessments Of
property for taxes, to support them
selves, condition of affairs for
which the assessing officers are re-
sponsible: Amherst, S1s 394.55; Ap-

In striking contrast to these
"short" counties are to be found
some of the counties which reverse
the foregoing as follows: Alexandria,
Sl5.20 .95 Augusta, $27,21S.1 IL; Bath

Roanoke, $1O,o51 90; Rockingham,
s32 649.43; Tazewell, $l1.035.73; Wise
$14,,126.37.
There are eleven dispensaries in
! the State, from which the State gets
a part of the revenues. These paic
last year total of $2O,37O. II to the
treasury. The amounts received
from each is as follows: Abingdon

And after 1916 these institutions
will cease to exist. Six of these coun

among the "short" counties in the

NEW YORK. Dec 25.--Why do
plays fail2 The question is pertinent
in view OF the present disastrous sea
son. Many answers have been given.
The eNar is being blamed, that
cause usually being bracketed with
the so-called economic crisis in this
country today. The people do not
have the money TO spend, Is the com
monest wall on Broadway. Yet the
box Office men are just as naughty TO
their prospective customers as they
have been in the most prosperous
seasons. The prices are at top-notch
and manager will paper" his house
and continue a long "dead-head" list
at the same time that he charges 81
for an obscure balcony seat One
manager, whose grey matter has al
ways been rated as being smaller
than a canary birds, gave vent 10 a
long. profound interview In which he
declared his solemn conviction that
prices should be increased to SO for
an orchestra seat.
The moving picture houses come
next In the list of causes for the the
atrical lean year. That there is much
truth in that statement none can
deny, but 1t must not be forgotten that
most OF the pictures fans are recruit
ed from the ranks OF those who other
wise would not go inside theater.
Many OF the managers have quit
and their houses are dark or given
up TO the half-darkness OF moving pic
lures. They we're the managers who,
instead of producing the plays which
they thought worthwhile (giving them
credit for knowing a real play when
II is offered by the playwright, went
ahead and showed plays with only a
temporary appeal.
The one fact remains, that il the
managers ever hope to see a return
to the prosperous conditions of few
years ago, they will have to change
their estimate OF the public intelli-
gence. The public today does not be.
lieve press-agent yarns nor advertis.
ing with the gullibility OF yore. With
the endless making OF books describ-
ing the stage and dramatic condi-
tons, the theatergoer very often has
a better idea of the value OF a play
than the manager has--and it is the
theater-goer who buys the tickets.
