.ASPHALTIC PAVING
MAY Be ADOPTED To
SKIRT THE HOSPITAL
BID WAS VERY LOW ON THIS
TYPE OF MATERIAL AND EN-.
GINEER WILL LOOK INTO THE
PROPOSITION.

Asphaltfc paving may be adopted
as the material to be used on the
three paved streets skirting the
new Pensacola hospital building. This
material has been receiving some
serious consideration in the past few
day, and Engineer Earle Thornton,
figuring the cost of the wood block
and then figuring on the other mate
rial, was favorably impressed with
the idea that the asphaltic paving
would suit all purposes, and it would
be a cheaper burden. on the citizens
who would be affected by the pay
ments.
For the purpose of looking more
closely into the question, Mr.. Thorn
ton will make trip to Mobile today
to investigate the matter, and Mayor
Greenhut was last night considering
the possibility of making a trip to
Mobile himself. He said that he was
going if things could be arranged to
permit of his absence for a day from
his office.
The bid for the asphaltic paving
was but $1.90 per square yard, while
that for the wood block, by the same
bidder who offered the new paving
material, was 80 cents higher, or at
1929. It would mean a big saving
of the asphaltic was adopted.
The Memphis, Tenn, firm of Powers
& Sons bid on the asphaltic material,
and also bid on the wood block. The
competition bid, offered by a local
man, did not mention asphalt, and
only wood block. 1t is understood
that wood block was the material de-
sired by the hospital association.

DEMAND
SENDS SPIRITS
AND ROSIN UP
SPIRITS QUOTED AT 46H, HIGH
EST IN MANY MONTHS-ALL
GRADES OF ROSINS AGAIN
ADVANCE.

Continued strong demand sent the
naval stores market up again yester-
day. Spirits sold at Pensacola at
ASH cents, the highest price quoted
in many months, while all indications
are that the advance will continue
indefinitely, owing to the shortage of
the crop and small stocks.
Rosin continued its advance, the
prices being above any of the day
previous. An grades were affected
by the strong demand, with sales for
the day of 10 barrels.
The spirit market was strong at
46A, with sales of 125 casks.

Captain Wilbur Lawton, which ap-

recent William Fox release starring
William Farnum, known to fame as
the 100000 dramatic artist, Is a
story of unusual power and deep
human interest. AS penned by Cap

drama, for the great genius of Mr..
Farnum, for whom, in fact, the work
was especially written and devised.
'The Wonderful Adventure" is in
part biographical, said Captain Law

Beechhurst, Z. I. "Sorne of the events
embodied in it actually occurred to a
man who is still living and whose

that some of the more striking events
of his life would make an impressive
photoplay If transposed from my play
and novel, occurred to me while / was
cruising on my yacht "Omoo" in the
West Indies. l at once wrote the
scenario on board and put back for
New York where Mr.. Fox became in
terested in my work and accepted it
for the use of Mr.. Farnum."

Cleaning Lace.

Lace that Is too delicate to be wash.
Cd In the usual way can be cleaned in
this way: Make strong soapsuds OF
some good soap and allow the lace to
remain In 1t for several hours at least,
although 1t is well to shake 1t out oc-

most convenient to handle. When the
lace is thoroughly soaked let the soapy
water out Of the bottle and keep add

been removed from the lace. Do not
handle the lace at all; shaking the bot

: Wonder Of Meehs nisnn.

Half century ago there was not .
watch in. existence capable Of meeting
the requirements Of the American rail
way time service today. Railway time
inspection has set tie limit Of varia-
ton from true time for It's employees
watches at 80 seconds week. This
means that the balance wheel shall not
vary In its motion to the extent of one
vibration out of every 10000. Taking
into consideration the various causes
OF disturbance to which a railway en-
gineer's watch is subjected, the jolts
and jars, the changes Of temperature
and the magnetic influence incidental
TO the proximity of large masses of
iron and Steel, this performance Is
truly remarkable. That It is possible
to secure such accuracy In such tiny
piece of mechanism subjected to those
adverse influences is little short of
marvellous. and justifies the claim that
the watch Of today is the most won
derful piece of mechanism that the In
genuity Of man has ever produced

They have only themselves to blame il
il does not come out satisfactorily, ac-
cording to a statement in letter from
Secretary Tumulty to John L. McLaurin,

Secretary Tumulty's letter was in re-
ply to communication to the president
from Mr. McLaurin, regarding the hand
ling of this years cotton crop.
In it, Mr.. McLaurin charged that Seer
tain southern bankers, working through
those OF New York, were striving to
force the sale of cotton at ten cents a
pound"
In his letter to Mr.. Harding, President
Wilson expressed confidence that south
ern banks would content themselves
with rate of interest not exceeding
two per cent. above the rate which they
themselves would have to pay to get
money to lend cotton producers for hand
ling this seasons cotton crop.
The president in his letter also said
that "the question of whether this adj

farmers is in the bankers hands,

Famous Temple and Statue.

Since about the year 752 the grand
ceremony Of Kaigen, or opening the
spiritual eye OF the statue" has been
celebrated but five times at the temple
commonly known as the Daibutsu Of
Nara, at Tokyo. The original statue
has suffered grievously since T52.
Once, In 855, the head dropped Off.
Since then 1t has suffered twice from
fire, and upon each occasion the head
was destroyed. The statue In its sit
ting posture measures fifty-three and
half feet, the length of the face being
sixteen feet. The two Bodhisattvas
fanking the Daibutsu are as high as
thirty feet. The temple is 1888 feet in
frontage and 1875 feet in depth and is
known as the largest wooden building
in Japan, though 1t is much smaller
than the original, built LOO years ago.
1t was not built to protect the statue
from being exposed to the weather.
but the statue was made to enshrine
as the chief figure of the temple.
