H. Tuttle, the Plat B contractor whoso mysterious de parture has been mentioned hereto fore In The Times: "P. P. Norton of Marshfield, ar rived In Sunday night, after having travoled the 64 miles botween here and Bandon since that morning. Mr. Korton was In a hurry, as he was In pursuit of H. M. Tuttle, who was hiking for the California line with some property he had purchased from Norton which was not yet paid for. Tuttle had purhcased at dif ferent times from Mr. Norton two good teams of horses, harnesses and one wagon, paying a nominal nmount In cash and agreeing to pay the rest In monthly Installments. Some of the payments fell due on July 15th, but Tuttle had ostensibly departed for a camping trip to Sunset Bay, taking his family with him. Investi gation showed that he had taken his household goods as well. Tuttle was n resident of Plat B In North Bend, and was engaged in erecting a two story building for a business place in Plat B, but had run lumber bills and had paid his help in promises. Things seemed to have reached a climax in his financial matters and it was either pay or get out, and Tuttle flew tas It were. "But Mr. Tuttle had departed Sunday morning, quietly and with out ostentation, towards the land of Dennis Kearney. Sheriff Tyler had taken Tuttle Into custody and de tained him as long as he thought himself justified in holding him, and then let him depart after a compro mise had been effected whereby Nor ton's best team, two harnesses and Stewart's wagon wero left behind as mementos of an exciting chase. With these to placate him, Tuttle believed Korton would bo content and give up the hunt. But Mr. Norton was a de termined man, and immediately Btnrted on nfter him when he lenrncl of his departure. As he wont farther and farther south, his determination tegan to eke out in largo eyes, since to was nearlng the California lino and saw his Journey was going to provo futile. Ho at last reached the Bummit of a high hill from whence a view far ahead could bo obtained. No Tuttle In sight. Mr. Norton stopped. The day was hot. His prey had escaped. Ho mopped his perspiring brow. 'Ho then said a few things appropriate to tho occasion and hit the backward trail. "In speaking of tho mntter, Mr. Norton Informed tho Radium re porter that ho was not loser to the amount of more than a hundred dollars, since ho had received somo payments on tho team which Tut tlo escaped with. Tho laws are rather peculiar nbout such matters and ho was not satisfiod ho could hring nny criminal chargo against Tuttle successfully, as he had a con tract for tho property and Mr. Norton Jins a mortgage on t. piece of real estate In North Bend, for which Tut tle has a warranty deed. Anyway ho oxpressed himself as satisfied with regaining tho best team, which is valued at $300. No doubt Mr. Stow nrt will bo moro thnn satisfied with tho expedition aH well."

Better Than Acphalt, Does Not Crack and Lump Rolling Must Not Be Done In Wet Weather or When Ground Is Soft. The old system of "oiling ronds and streets" Is clearly a flat failure except for n moderate Improvement of some of tho worst thoroughfares. The new system of "making ronds with oil" Is proving a success whenever proper methods arc pursoed. The oil nnd natural soil no longer go where real results are wanted. The use of the heavy ten to eleven gravity petroleum has become quite general. Its superiority has been well demonstrated, but there Is a wide dif ference between different oils of this gravity nnd with the same amount of asphaltutn. Some of thnt sold Is well nigh useless, although It is unques tionably of the specified gravity nnd contains the required percentage of as phalt Tho oil must possess the ad hesive quality and be able to bind the rock nnd asphaltum together In other words, the necessnry petrollne. Tho best roads nre undoubtedly the macadamleod highways found in older sections. The building of such thor oughfares with the use of oil on the surface to form a top dressing and liOAD liEABY 1'Olt OILIJ.Q. present a surface like nsphnlt pave ment Is Just In Its Infancy In southern California, says the Los Angeles Times. In Pasadena there nre n num ber of streets of this kind, notably Madison avenue, prepared at a cost of 12 cents per square foot and with a depth of seven inches of foundation. Blocks of thl3 street nre scarcely dis tinguishable from nsphalt paving. There nre others similar, but some aro not equal to this. At the same time they aro superior to those prepared in tho old way. The new method of macadamizing nnd oiling na laid down In a set of specifications used for a number of streets may he outlined substantially as follows: For the foundation grading is done by the removal of nil earth, stone, loobe rock, cement, shale, hard pan, etc., to n depth of seven Inches below the Intended finished surface and to n farther depth of two feet be low the subgrade whenever mud, sand or other soil material Is encountered, tho space to be refilled with good earth or gravel. The whole Is rolled with a roller of not less than twelve tons In weight until the surface Is un yielding, all depressions made by tho roller being tilled up and rolled again. All portions that cannot be reached by the roller must be tamped solid, and tho rolling must not be done In wet weather or when the ground Is soft and muddy. This subgrade must bo checked by the street superintendent before proceeding with work. On this grade a bottom course of macadam Is laid consisting of stone not exceeding three inches In diameter and not less than one nnd a half Inch es. This layer will be five Inches in thickness and is rolled with a twelve ton steam roller until the stone ceases to sink under the roller or to creep In front of It. A top course of stone between three fourths of an Inch and an Inch and a half In diameter will cover this to a depth of two Inches nnd will he rolled as before after n first coating of oil (one-half a gallon to tho square yard) Is applied evenly so as to saturate the entire top layer. Then all voids aro filled lu with rock screenings of the snnio material as the macadam not ex ceeding three-quarters of an Inch in diameter, with a top dressing of the same material laid to tho depth of half an Inch, nfter which there Is given a second coating of oil to the saino nmount as before and the whole rolled nnd tamped until no evidence of the oil remains on the surface except as shown In tho color of the screenings. Sharp sand Is to be bvrlnkled wherever nny oil remains to absorb It. These specifications provide that oil shall be of 10 to 11 gravity, with 80 per cent asphaltum nt 80 penetration and with not more than 2 per cent water. The Pacific Electric nnd Los Angeles Interurbau railways nre using this method on their rights of way In Pasa dena, Long Beach nnd one or two other points. It Is said to bo better than tho use of nsphnlt. as It gives with tho pressure of tho rails under weight of ears and can bo taken up nnd replaced without dllllculty. It does not crack and lump, as does tho as phalt. It Is hard to tell It from the latter, sometimes Impossible, for tho nverago person. In Long Bench the lesult has been very good. New Road Machine.
