A SUGGHsTIoN.-EditorS Star: During ride
through the west end of the city, could not
but be struck with the extent and magnitude
of the improvements there, rejecting great
credit upon the Board of Public Works. i
might mention particularly that part north of
Pennsylvania avenue, between nth and I'D
streets, because of the recent extensive sales of
property. The selection of a site for the
Bristish Minister'S mansion, the spacious build
ings in progress by Cabinet Officers and for
United States Senators, show the estimate in
which these improvements are held. Still, Mr..
Editor, L would with Difference ask, why large
unprepossessing trees are allowed to stand In
the sidewalks in the way of paSsers-by? They
are Objectionable by night and by day, for by
night, and especially when dark, they are more
or less dangerous distractions, and by day they
mar the picturesque effect and beauty of whole
squares. These remarks apply as we'll to Eth
street north as to 10th street south OF the
avenue.
