mile of the rich Moose City gulch, and
also the ground on Moose creek and
the bar on Kelly creek at the conflu-
ence of the two creeks, aggregating
over 200 acres of pay ground and ex-
tending more than two miles along the
creeks. Every year few men were
employed prospecting the ground and
making permanent improvements. The
numerous prospect holes showed that
bedrock is about or 10 feet deep and
thorough tests of the gravel showed
pay conservatively estimated at S5 or
40 cents per yard Even with good
pay assured, the heavy expense owing
to the remote location of the ground
made development a slow and expen-
sive undertaking. To add to the diff
culties, a few years ago the ground
was relocated on sOmeepretext or other
and the original owners were forced to
go into court to establish right to the
ground. This they finally did, involv
ing the loss of much time and heavy
expense Following the settlement of
the litigation, sawmilll was taken in
to provide lumber for buildings and

were employed each season digging a
ditch to provide water for hydraulic

Prohibition officials to-day agreed to
concentrate all stocks OF whisky in

DECATUR HEIGHTS, Md, August
1S.-An energetic movement seeking
| improvement of the Bladensburg road
between the Maryland state line and
| 18th and II streets northeast, Wash
! ington has been launched by the De-
catur Heights Citizens Association.
, 1t is the intention of the association
! to enlist the aid of every ciYic body
and influential citizen in the Hyatts-
ville-Bladensburg district to have this
! road rebuilt in a substantial manner.
| Those who travel daily over the road
! point out that they have observed with
| considerable alarm the rapid destruc-
| tion of the road during the past two
\ months, and state that with winter not
| far away they are forced to anticipate
! serious travel conditions before it will
1 be possible to make permanent i'm
provementS.
At special meeting of the Decatur
| Heights organization a resolution. adj
| dressed to the Commissioners of the
/ District of Columbia, was adopted, de-
claring that the road is in very poor
condition and rapidly becoming so
! rough as to be almost impossible.
Tourists Disappointed.
! 1t is set forth that the thousands of
| tourists entering or leaving Washing
| ton, it being estimated that about 80
| per cent travel over this road, are nat
| urally disappointed in it's condition.
After pointing out that the Wash
| ington- Baltimore boulevard outside
very satisfactorily, and that this
! thoroughfare has been maintained
most economically since it's recon-
struction two years ago. the resolu
! ton states that the condition of the
| District of Columb bia part of this road
indicates that its repair and recon-
stTuctlon last year apparently was
| not done under proper supervision.
the roadway not even being provided
with proper drainage and the resur-
| facing done with salvaged bituminous
materials. The work is termed patch
work. 1t is stated that it cost about
| 100000 per mile or $4,000 for the 25
miles.
| Want Permanent Surface.
! 1t is declared that this highway can
| be reconstructed as a plain Portland
cement roadway at a cost not to ex-
ceed $3.50 per square yard. eight
inches thick, or that it can be recon-
structed as a bituminous concrete
highway at an expenditure not ex-
ceeding $40 per square yard, this
estimate being based on materials laid
! in place.
The Commissioners are urged to
recommend to Congress that this
piece of roadway be rebuilt as a per-
| manent hard-surfaced highway in the
! manner above described.
| The resolution also requests the
| Commissioners to compel the Wash
| ington Railway and Electric Company
I to remove it's trolley poles from the
center line of this roadway, and that
the railway company be compelled to
resurface that portion of the highway
| adjacent to and between the tracks.

WOMAN WILL GET
$I87,5OO BY ASKING
d. MANS PARDON

DETROIT. Mich. August 1S.-An
apology for alleged wrongs to her
brother, B. Archie Linderman OF
Washington, D. c., and Chicago. will
enrich Mrs Gertrude L. Gilmore OF
New York by s1S7,5O0. according to
the will of her mother. Mrs. Ella A.
Linderman, just filed for probate here.
The disagreement, brought to light
by the WILL arose from division of
stock, patents and other property OF
the manufacturing concern operated
by Alfred Linderman up to the time
of his death several years ago.
Under Mrs, Linderman's will. as
originally written, the estate, amount
ing to approximately s75O.000, was to
be divided equally among four chill
dren, Mrs. Gilmore, B. Archie Linder-
man, Leona L. Marshall of Muske-
gon and Winifred Linderman of Los
Angeles.
A codicir was filed in 1918. however.
stating that Mrs. Gilmore should be
cut off from the estate "if she does
not stop prosecutions of her brother
Part of the estate, it was directed,
should be used to fight this, great
injustice"
A year ago another codicil was filed
stating that Mrs. Gilmore should re-
ceive her share of the estate if she
made "a written Acknowledgements of
her wrong" and expressed SatiSfac-
tion with the division of property at
the death of her father. The apology
the codicil added, must be SatiSfac-
tory to Mrs. Gilmore's brother.
