Them Satlstfcctery- An Engineer
Taper On the Vlrtuea of Bricks.
One efthe best articles upon the subject
of brick roadways 1. a paper read before
the Iowa Society of Civil Engineers and
Surveyors at their meeting held in the city
of Des Moines last rammer by Win, Steyb,
city engineer of Burlington, la., and he
gives some data which are original and
valuable. The article is as fellows :
There has been se much written and said
about street pavemeuta that it seems super
fluous te discuss this subject further, but
se long as the better classes even of streets
pavements are open te objections se long
will this subject furnish material for dis
cussion by the profession. Without going
into lengthy details about the various
street pavements new in use I will conilne
myself te a general statement of tliel r geed
and bnd features. The main questions te
be considered In the selection of the
material for street pavements are comfort,
healtlifulneas, safely and economy, and
the merits of the different kinds may be
summed up as fellows :
Oraulte block pavement Service very
geed, durable, needing little repair, but
very noisy and slippery when worn, es
pecially ou steep grades, and ilrst cost ex
pensive. Aspbaltum Servlce very geed, free from
noise and dust, but slippery en steep
grades, expensive te repair and first cost
expensive.
Brick Service very geed, free from
noise and dust, durable, very easily re
paired, and first cost moderate if brick can
be procured in the iinmedtate vicinity,
thereby saving freight charges.
Weed block Service very geed during
the first few years, free from noise and
dust, but unhealthy and offensive after the
weed begins te decay; first cost moderate.
Macadam Sorvice reasonably geed, but
very muddy In wet and dusty in dry
weather needing constant repairs; first
cost moderate.
Tbere are various ether pavements in
use In different parts of the country, sand
stone block, limestone block, cobble stone,
etc., but having no experience with any of
them lean net say anything for or against
them.
Frem the foregoing it will be seen that
the brick pavement has become known
outside of a few cities in this country and
consequently Is as yet in lis infancy, but I
am justified in saying that whorevor it has
been Introduced it has made friends faster
than most of tlie ether pavement.
After describing the limestone macadam
pavements of Burlington, with their mud
and dust and the efforts te give brick a fair
trial, Knglneer Sleyh says ;
In tbe sering of 1888 a ceed many of our
citizens were alive te the all-absorbing j
uucbuuu ui uuw vii improve uur mrtwis mill
thereby enhnnre the value of real estate.
The city council wan urged te order streets
paved regardless of the uumuruus' remon remen
strances and threats of contesting the as
Kessuienls. Finally Jeffersen' street, bo be
tween. Frent and Seventh streets, was
'Ordered paved, and although nearly half of
the property owners remonstrated against
belng assessed for the same, net a slngle
one contested the assessment, and te-day
property owners In every locality are
anxious te get tbelr streets paved. Bur
lington new has about 60,000 square yards
of brick pavement, which will undoubtedly
be doubled the coming season. We also
laid about 3,000 square yards of granite
block pavement last spring, which gives
Soed satisfaction se far, but I de net think
lurllngten will lay any mero granite in
the near future, as our citizens are all de
cidedly in favor of brick.
In order te find out the strength for re
sistance of the brick used In our pavement,
I sent six amples te the United States
arsenal at Reck Island, 111., te be tested.

Taking the weakest of the samples whiah
commenced te spaul at 30,000 pounds for an
area of a little- ever 9 square inches, which
would equal very nearly that portion of
the four wheels of a heavy farm wagon
resting en the pavement at any one time,
it snows mat it wnuiu require exiremeiy
heavy leads te injure the pavements. As
the brick .pavement presents a very smooth
surface the wear is net nearly as great as en
granite and ether stone block pavements.
Se far brick pavements have been con
structed mostly in small cities en account
itin erroneous opinion that It would net
8Und the heavy traffic of the large places ;
but the time is undoubtedly near when
brick paving will be adopted for the
heaviest traillc. Of course, It will require
the very best brick, thoroughly vitrified
and made of clay which has enough Iren
in It te make the brick tough in addition
te being hard. The foundation ler a
geed street pavement can net be made
rith tee much care, as a peer founda
tion will bring the best of paving ma
terial into disfavor en account of making
the wearing surface irregular. But se
Jeng as our streets are dug up for sewer,
-water, gas or steam connections, he long
will there be defective foundations for
pavements, no matter hew well they may
have been constructed originally.

The width of joints In this pavement is

found by Dr. Beehm, of the Academy of
Berlin, recent tests by the Chicago Ferge
and Belt company of twenty-nine samples
of pressed building brick show a maximum

any known material.
BRICK rXVINO VOH HOADWAY.
A circular from the Decatur Tile Ce.,
Decatur, III., gives Information of much
value lu relation te the uae of brick as
paving material for publle roadway.
Brick for street paving Is be longer an
experiment. Scores of cities In the United
States new use nothing else. In some cities
brick bss been used lu the streets for
nearly twenty years, and the paving, with
little repair, premises te last as long again.
Decatur, III., was one of the first cities te
adept brick exclusively for street paving,
and new has about ten miles of paved
streets, with many blocks under contract.
The purpose Is te push the work as fast as
the finances will permit until the entire city
Is paved. Decatur has gene through the
experimental process, trying brick of
various makes, and her experience is a
valuable guide te cities contemplating pav
ing with brick. After much experiment
ing the Decatur Tile Ce. has produced a
virtrlfled brick almost impervious te water
and equal te granite In wear. By the baking
process the surface is glazed and
the Inside Is rendered flint-like te
the centre. The brick rings like
metal, and brlttleness, which characterizes
"bard burned brick" from up-draught
kilns, Is avoided. The test In Decatur
demonstrated the vast superiority of these
brick ever all ethers, and In 1889 all ordi
nances for paving speclfled"dewn draught"
brick. Nothing else can new be used. The
first experimental block of Tile company
brick was laid by Jehn Grass, contractor,
en Seuth Water street, Decatur, in May,
1875, under a guaranty for five years. Net
a dollar of repairs has .been' required,
though exposed continuously te the
heaviest trafllc. The paving Is as smooth
as a fleer, and a guaranty of twenty years
would have been safe.
In 1880 four specimens of Tile company
brick, nicked up at random, were tested by
the Chicago Ferge and BoltcOmpan.show BeltcOmpan.show BoltcOmpan.shew
Ing the ultimate crushing resistances of the
samples te be 252,000, 229,000, 210,000 arid
218,000 pounds respectively. The brick
measured 7Jx2Jx4 inches. The method lu
Decatur for paving Is te bring the earth
ounuaiien 10 a proper graue, tne last turee
Inches of grading being finished with the
pick and shovel, The surface la then rolled,
ustnir a six te ten ten roller. Over this
surface is spread four Inches of gravel, or
sand andvgravel. carefully tamped. A
course of hard brick is then laid flat,
lengthwise with the street, also tamped ;
en this course Is spread an inch and a
hair of screened sand, gauged and properly
smoothed off. On this la laid tbe top course
of extra hard brick en edge, crosswise with
tbe street. Care Is taken te break Joints In
each' course. The top ceurse Is also
taiuped. In tamping a two-Inch plank is
Uld en the brick and a forty-pound rammer
in the bands of two stout men Is used.
Kxperlence taught the superiority of tamp
ing ever using a roller. After being
thoroughly tamped se as te secure a smooth
surface, fine screened sand is spread and
swept into the crevices an inch of sand
being left en the top after throwing the
paving open te travel.
' Te secure the best results and protect the
paving in its life and even surface, the
street should be drained by laying drain
tile at each side, outside the curbing.
Horses de net slip or fall en brick pave
eont as they de en granite blocks, owing
te the small surface between the same. The
advantages of brick paving are :
1. Kconemy In construction.
2. Smoothness of surface.
3. Noiseless almost as weed.
4. Ne slipping by horses.
5. Freedom from all Impurities.
0. Durability next, ir net equal, te granite.
7. Kconemy and convenience in repairs.
BRICK U0ADWAY FOUNDATIONS.
Clen. A. O 111 mere, In bis work en "Reads,
Streets and Pavements," says :
"The object of a pavement being te se
cure a bard, even and durable surface, and
net te any considerable extent, nor neces
sarily, te support the weight of heavy
leads, It Is evident that the surface will
boeh subslde unequally, forming ruts and
depressions, unless it rests upon a firm
and solid foundation. A geed foundation
is as necessary for the stability of a pave
ment as for that of any ether construction.
Bad foundations invariably produce bad
pavements sooner or later, while with a
geed foundation the quality of tbe surface
upon which the wear takes place depends
upon the material used for paving and the
manner of laying it down.
"Among the suitable foundations for
a pavement, provided the thickness
be adapted te tbe character of the
sub-soil and the nature of the traf-,
flu nre the following; 1. hvdraullc
concrete six te eight inches in thick nesa;
2, rubble stones set en edge, but net in con
tact, with the interstices filled with con
crete ; 3, rubble stones set In contact like
the sub-pavement of a Telferd reed ; 4,
cobble stones firmly set in a form of sand
or gravel ; u, smaii runuie stones or ran
dom sizes in a well compacted layer ; or 0,
a layer of broken stone laid In the manner
of a macadamized read."
In speaking .of concrete foundations he
says:
" Though the most costly, it is the best
stree: foundation, all things considered, tuat
has yet been devised. In a few weeks after
laying It becomes a strong, solid monolith,
and, even If It should crack In many places
in consequence of the great and varying
leads upon it, or from unequal powers of
resistance, and therefere unequal subsi
dence or the underlying soil, its superior
ity te any ether kind of bottoming can
scarcely be doubted." "
Gillespie, In his works en reads, refer
ring tocencroto foundations, savs :
" This is perhaps the most efficient of all
the foundations, but athe the most costly at
first, though this would be balanced by Its
permanence and saving of repairs. .It ad
mits of access te subterraneous pipes with
less injury te the neighboring pavement
than any ether, for the conereto may be
broken through at any point without un
settling the foundation for a considerable
distance around, as Is the case with founda
tions of sand or broken stones; and when
the conereto is replaced the pavement can
be at once reset at Its proper level, without
the uncertain allowance of setting which Is
necessary in etner cases."
Mr. F. Ij. Iloge, city engineer of Wheel
ing, W, Va., says;
" In a large cltv, with heavy and con
tinuous hauling, I Bheuld prefer a founda
tion six inches of concrete and use the
brick as a wearing surface. We ought te
pay mero and get better work."

The past week was another dull one In

Farmers were busy the past week in
planting the '90 crop and the weather was
favorable for the work. In some sections
of the county there Is a scarcity of plants,
and for that reason a large dealer, who baa
had reports from all sections of tbe county,
believes the acreage will be leu this than
last year. . ,
Tobacco seed was set at the usual tlme

Its growth. The plants for the late crops

Tlie New Yerk Market.
Frem tlie U. 8. Tobacco Journal.
The Sumatra boom is still holding out.
The extent of purchases Is restricted only
by the limited quantities of imports and
the old stock en band. Goods are taken as
quickly as they are landed, and they ate
shipped ever here as seen as they are
bought at an inscription. Kxtra steamers
are pressed Inte the service of transporta
tion. Tbe inscriptions at Bremen, Amster
dam and Rotterdam, which followed each
ether closely since the last of last month,
yielded about 7,000 bales for the Amerlcan
market, and they will all be In before July
1. Last week's importation or Sumatra
amounted te 2,307 bales, which is one or
tbe largest importations en record for a
single week. And mere than half of this
importation has changed band, already.
The total sales for the week amount te
1,000 bales.
At tbe beginning of the week buyers
were Inclined te go a little slew en account
of (by the Mugwump papers) ropeited op-
eosltien against the MeICInley bill by the
euate finance committee. Tbe sieed,
however, with which the Senate committee
is passing tbe dillerent items of the tariff
bill, tbe tew insignificant changes the com
mittee is making in the original schedules,
and the cold reception the New Yerk busi
ness men's delegation received at tlie
bands of the committee, seem to'havehad
tbe effect of dampening any sanguine hepe
or any radical rovlslen of the McKlnley
bill by the Senate Hence tlie continuance
of the Sumatra boom.
The Importations of Havana have also
been exceedingly large the past week.
They amounted te 3,400 bales. This large
Importation reveals the intontlen of our
Havana Importers of net taking any
chances en the " every part" clause of the
tobacco schedule. Tbev want te be en the
safe side when the tariff bill passes. Thoro Thero Thore
foro all the goods which are kept lu the
watebouses at Havana en account of the
mere favorable climatic Influences en them,
are speedily orderod Inte their ewners'
possession en this side.
Frem the Tobacco Leaf.
Business has been rather brisk during
the week, and all kinds of old tobacco wero
disposed of. B goods were eagerly sought
for. This class of tobacco Is very scarce,
and te-day commands a geed figure.
In 1889 tobacco a few hundred cases were
sold, and the Indications are that bofero
many days have passed a large business
will ue dene in new packings.
The buying of the new crop in the grow
ing section Is fast growing te a close, and
the amount in farmers' hands at present Is
very small Indeed less than for many
years for the same period of tbe year.
Congressman McAdoo's Spwcli.
In Congressman McAdoo's spoech at the
creat tariff reform meetlng In Philadelphia
appears the following : " New, in this bill,
outside of this feature of the tin, there Is
anether matter which Interests you poeplo
of Philadelphia. Tbe Netherlands Is
possessed of an island called Sumatra. Its
climate and Its soil are exceedingly favor
able te tbe raising of a certain quality of
tobacco. It is a thin lear without much
vein te It. It Is the covering, I should say,
of eleven-twelfths of the cigars or the peer
men of the land, When It Is delivered In
the tobacco factory It costs, I should think,
about fl.bO, duty and all, a pound. They
iropese te raise a wall ngalnbt this tobacco
y making the duty JJand $2.75 per iKund.
What will be tbe result of thlsT The first
result will be the raising of the price of the
peer man's cigars. The next result will
be a decrease In the number or cigars
smoked, and the last result will be the
discharge of thousands of men lu Philadel

HEALTH QUERIES.
Census Investigations te IBe Pushed
Threuiih Physicians.
The following baa been issued by tbe
State Beard of Health t
7 Pfiitklani in Tenntyliiinia .'
An opportunity Is afforded In connection
with the taking of the census by the United
State government, of obtaining statistical
information which cannot Ml te be of ex
treme value te tbe state, as regards the
physically defective classes which compose
a portion of Its population. The State
Beard of Health, te which has been con
fided the duty of superintending the col
lection of vital statistics In this common
wealth doslreus tbat these returns should
be aa full as possible The medical profes
sion, of all ethers, should be the first te
appi eclat e the Importance of such Informa
tion. It has been found, howevor, lu con
versation with physicians, that many of
them entertain the apprehension that the
Information which they thus Impart, may
1m used in seme manner detrimental te
the patient, or individual, te whom It
refers. In order te remove such ebstacle
te obtaining complete returns, communi
cations were addrossed te the Hen. Rebert
P. Perter, superlntondent cf census, and
Dr. J. S. Billings, surgeon U. S. A., in
charge of vital statistics and statistics of
special classes, asking for a guarantce in
addition te tbat already given, "that all
information furnished en their schedules
would be considered, and treated aa st.-lctly
confidential, no names being published."
Te this communication the following
replies bave been receive. I :
Ckxhus Om6n, Washington, )
June 4th, 1890.
Sir: Permit tne te acknowledgo your
favor of the 2d Instant, and in reply te
state that the only object in obtaining theso
returns from physicians Is te correct the
enumerator's return, and under no cir
cumstances will the Information received
from physicians be nsed against an Indi
vidual, but as seen as cempared, and
enumerator's report corrected, the physi
cian's schedule will be destroyed. They
are te be used simply te supplement the
Information glven te enumerators, and In
no case will anv patient ever knew through
this ofllce that a physician ever made a
report of his case. The superintendent
communicated with you en this subject
yesterday, and Dr. Billings, new absent, is
fully in accord with him in assuring you
that no physician noed fear that the infor
mation given will be used save In the most
confidential manner.
In tbe absence of Dr. J. S. Billings,
special agent. Very roapeetfully,
W. H.OLCOTT,
Acting Chief of Division of Special Classes.
Ce.nsi's Orricx, Wasiiinoten,

Sin : I beg te acknowledgo your favor of
the 2d Instant and in reply te say that ;you
can assure every physician in your state
that whatever information they uive te this
ofllce will be strictly confidential, se far as
names and residences are concerned. That
physicians' returns are te be used only te
correct Information received from enumera
tors and Immediately destreyed as seen as
compared : only a few selected clerks will
ever see thorn, and it will be Impossible
that any Information should reach tbelr
patients.
Permit me te express my appreciation of
your Interest In this work, and te assure
you that you may pledge this ofllce te fully
guard against any personal information
elng obtained en account of the returns
of the pbvslclans;
Very respectfully,

tion beuse while tbe chief of police was en
duty. He was crying bltterly and said
that be wanted te go te his home in Brook
lyn. He said that he bad coma te Lancas
ter with another boy and they had brought
horses te Lancaster. He expected te come
here and go right baek te Brooklyn, but the
man for whom he had brought the horses
was out of town. I.ater the boy who had
ceme with young Noader, and was elder,
went te the station heuse. He said that
C revision had been made at a hotel for the
ey and he could step there comfortably
until the owner of the horses returned ;
Noader was very homesick, however, he
kept saying that he wanted te go home te
his mother. Finally he lea with his com
panion, who premised te take him home.
Chief of Police Bergor wrete a letter te

An Assault una Battery Case.

aud battery. William Klnstry, a stranger,
was the prosecutor, and said that he went
Inte Ceruieuy'w hotel en Saturday nlgbl
and ate some oysters. While he and
Harry Care were eating tbe oysters they
made some remarks net very flattering te
Mr. Cormeny, and he and Henry Nelsen,
oue of his colored empleyes, assaulted
them. He was unable te positively Iden
tify Nelsen as ene of the assailants, and tbe
case against him was dismissed. Care,
who also made a complaint ter assault and
battery against tbese parties, failed te ap
pear te prosecute, and tb'e supposition Is
that he skipped away from town.
