OBSEQUIES HELD FOX
HUSTON'S IRON HAT
Famous Boiler Gets Reverent
Burial-Stengel Is Pricing
Japanese Kimon0s.
by w. O. McGEEHAN.

The iron hat of Colonel Tillinghast
LHommedieu Huston will bob about on
the baseball diamonds from the Hudson
to the Mississippi no more. At secret
inquest held In the offices Of the Yam
KEGS yesterday It was decided that the
famous boiler, as prominent In baseball
battles as the Helmet OF Navarro had

of the iron hat while the tide Of battle
RACED against the Yanks. followed tho
famous boiler to its last resting Y'lace.
This is a niche made in the concrete
foundations OF the new Yankee stadium
on The Bronx side of the Harlem river.
The burial OF the iron hat was per-
formed by Colonel Tillinghast LHo:n-
medieu Huston himself. The Colonel is
just as expert with the trowel as he il

that none now may know the last rest

Joe Kelley Greatly Affected.
Joe Kelley, once the greatest of the
outfielders and now scout for the YAM
KEGS, sobbed softly as the iron hat was
laid away. He looked at Colonel TIL
linghast l. Hommedieu Huston ana NUT

out it, The Colonel himself seemed
deeply touched at parting with the celc-
brated chapeau but he restrained his
emotions. He lifted his new headgear.
soft brown Fedora. in parting salute
and departed.
The origin OF the iron hat is some
what obscure. 1t is believed that II
was an heirloom. The elder residents
Of Cincinnati declare that Tillinghast
L'Hommedieu Huston was wearing this
same iron hat when as q young civilian
he conceived the weird notion of bull !.
ing water works for the city. The
burghers of Cincinnati shook their
heads and said. Something Is loose
with that young Herr Huston" This
idea seems to prevail to-day as ths
burghers look at the water works and
raise the eternal question. why is ~"
Twice Tillinghast LHommedieu Hus-
ton doffed the iron hat, once to, march
off to the Spanish war, again to sail
away to France. But once his feet were
on his native heath he would once again
don the rusting boiler. 1t cracked
during the strain OF the last rush of the
Yanks toward the pennant, and 1t was
badly dented during the late world
series. But still Col. Tillinghast L'Hom-
medieu Huston wore 1t clamped down
tightly on his corrugated brows until
yesterday. when 1t was entcInbed win
appropriate ceremonies.
With it is entombcd the identity OF tho
man In the iron hat. From now on Col.
Tillinghast L'Hommedieu Huston will
wear nothing but seasonable headgear,
and 1t will be hard to distinguish the
veteran of San Juan. the Second Marne
and two strenuous world series from his
fellow men.

Several Thousand Miles Of
New Construction contem-
plated in London.

A dispatch from London states
that country roads and city streets
to he laid out hereafter in Great Bri-
tain will have a right-of-way 100
feet wide in most instapces and 100
feet wide as a minimum, II present
plans Of the government are carried
out, as appears certain. The same
dispatch states that because motor
traffic has made It obvious that the
old narrow country roads are not In
these days safe, and because unem-
ployment In many lines makes this
time seem a very favorable one tor
the construction and improvement
OF highways. public enthusiasm has
greeted the official plan for the wild
ening Of existing roads and the es-
tablishmsnt Of the l20-foot width as
the official standard for the future.
England's. roads approached 100
per cent perfect long before any
great accomplishment in highway
construction had been recorded in
this country. Long before the war,
the highways of England had be-
come rivals of the railways through
the use OF motor trucks and steam
traction engines. often hauling sew
eral traders. each with q capacity OF
tons. The roads bore this traffic
well and their maintenance. which
calls for almost daily inspection and
continuous repairs, has enabled these
highways to stand up under q much
heavier traffic than 80 per cent OF
American roads receive.
The plans OF the government VIII
involve a total OF several thousand
miles OF additional new construction,
destined to make London the cen
ter Of the most adequately roaded
section Of the world.
The United States. just embarking
with governmental assistance upon
the construction OF an Interstate.

TEN, will do well to consider the "on-
illusions which an infinitely, greater
experience has forced upon British
highway authorities. While few OF
our roads, like those in the vicinity
Of London, need a right-of.way 120
feet In wtith at the present time,
that traffic requirements will ulti-
mately demand such q width seems
almost certain.
Our highway authorities would do
well to consider the conclusions
reached by the Technical Committee
Of American Highway Engineers and
other. experts appointed by the Lin
coin Highway Association to draft
the design for the Ideal Section" OF
American highway to be built by
that organization. The right-of-way
provided for this piece OF road Is 100
feet, but steps have been taken 70

needful. the adjacent property own.

terim.
Now is the time when 1t will cost
little to secure adequate width OF
right-of.way for our future main
highways. Later, the cost OF Wild
ening may be almost prohibitive.

a molten mass. Drawn from the
furnace in a semi.liquid state. the
