CENTER STREET.
Monday was one Of those bright spring
days that tempt US out to the hills TO note
the changing garb Of wood and field. On
our way, passing through 18th Center
street, we observed that David Alexander
Is undermining the front OF the old Morris
house. The neat bow windows and the
elevated cornice will much improve Its
appearance. The Roberts residence has
been recently painted and presents a
bright, cheerful exterior
I'M. Dillon Is preparing his grounds
for that brilliant display Of floral beauty
which every season makes his premises
one Of the most noticeable and attractive
spots in that pleasant locality Of quiet
homes.
THE CENTRAL GLASS WORKS.
Passing out to the works OF the Central
Glass Company we find that immense es.
tablishment going on with its unobtrusive
regularity, turning out as usual its daily
quota Of glitterlng varieties. Welearned,
however, in conversation about the WON.
ems movement that the war has for the
present largely reduced the demand for
certain lines OF goods. The mug part Of
the BUSINESS Is under cloud.
MANCHESTER.
Noticing large number Of women
assembled about the entrance TO Rey-
nsnns brewery over In Manchester, and
suGpecting 1t to be the initiation Of the
Eumored outdoor temperance exercises,
we rushed over 10 find that while 1t was
tn fact Women's movement, It had no
reference to beer further than the pur-
chase Of the matted grains, vast quantities
Ofwhich during a year are sold for COW
Iced. The brewery seems to be the main
dependence Of the people in East Wheel.
ing for that article. Between the coal
works Of Kimberly i Co., the brewery,
aud Warren's oil refinery, Manchester Is
quite busy locality. The improvement
OF Warren street, which ia now taking on
tremendous dose Of limestone, will give
the place good solid road, which will
greatly facilitate the transportation Of
coal and stone from that quarter.
THE COUNTRY SIDE!
Passing up the hill to the cemetery
one may well wonder that the build
ing ol that much talked Of fence should
have been so long deferred, and we are
glad that this blot upon a respectable at
tention to the dead will soon be removed.
REMARKABLE SLIP.
on the east side Of the hill, on Judge
Thompson's farm, and facing Letherwood,
we noticed the generally jumbled appear.
snce Of the ground, and, on inquiry, found
that Notwithstanding the light freezing of
the past winter, there has been an unusual
slipping Of the surface OF the hill, the
most remarkable feature oi which is l,s
extension lar up into the timbercd Sec
ton. Large patches have slipped con-
siderable distance, carrying, ol course
The trees with them, and yet the trees re-
nsined erect.
