About the sidewalks or Twelfth
Street.

The advantages OF widening the side
walks of the most travelled parts of two
of our principal tnorough ares are being
rapidly appreciated. Where the add
tional width of pavement has been put
in order on Market street. the greater
convenience is SO marked that pedestrians
only wonder why it wasn't done long
ago. There are three squares on Twelfth
street, IRON the Court House to the river,
that need this improvement about as
much rs any squares we know Of The
south side of Twelfth street particularly
is crowded frequently way beyond
the capacity OF the pavement with pedes-
TRANS. No doubt wDen Washington
Hail is rebuilt aud the fine stores under
meath are occupied, the north side of that
street will be equally crowded, as proba-
bly, the square between Market and
Main streets, on that side, is now.
Twelfth street, from Water to Chap!ne
streets, is the great east and west artery
to the six business squares bordering on
the north AID south, rs 1t
also is an important line Of
Ingress and egress to and from Chapline
street and thence to the Eastern section
of the city. Probab y no other parallel
street will ever assume the importance or
become such thoroughtare as old Mon
roe street. This is natural, because OF its
termination at the centre OF the wharf on
the west, aud cutting the business cen
ire Of the city rs stated
above. Ii Wheeling hill is ever
removed, an improvement that is rs
msmmouth in its proportions as it is re
mote, there may be n diversion OF trade
to other streets. But until then, and
perhaps thereafter, Twelfth street will
not only hold her own, but lncrea rs
the city enlarges in point of travel and
business until she outstrlps by tar, heT
sister thoroughisres. Therefore, to return
to what we started out To say, let
the sidcwa ks OF this street be wldened
from Chsplne to the river in like pro-
portion to the reclaimed parts OF Main
and Market streets. Most of the prop
erty own owners are deslrous that the
Improvement be made, and some otthem
have even expressed themselves as being
willing to deirsy their share of the ex.
penses, providing the city will not under
take TO do 1t.

Probable Fatal Accident,

Yesterday forenoon John w. Vana.
man, An employee at Hubbsrd's saw mill,
received injuries by being run over by a
wagon which may prove fatal. Fsns-
msl was engaged in hauling shingles
from the mill to the lumber yard at the
corner OF Main and Twentieth streets,
and when driving across the gutter IN
the yard, several burches of shlagles on
which he Was sitting became dislodged
and fell to the ground directly at the
heels of the horses, carrying the uniortu-
nate man with them. The horses were
somewhat startled by the falling SHIN.
giles, and giving q quick jump,
pulled the heavily laden wagon
over Vsnsmsn's body, the front wheel
passing over his shoulder and stomach,
the collar bone and causing
severe internal injuries. The hind wheel
passed over his legs both of which were
broken. Drs. Bsguely and Wunderlch
were summoned and attended to the
mans injuries, who was lying very low
and at last accounts splitting some blood.
The extent of the internal injuries re.
ceived cannot yet be sscertsined. Van.
amsn is a man of family, and resides on
Eott street, between Twenty.third and
streets.

Hymen's DeyOtees,

Yesterday morning scene was en-
acted at the Fourth street NJ. E. church,
which turned the channel of society Cos
sip from its usual course, and brought
happiness to worthy gentleman and
estimable lady of this CITY. We refer to
the marriage OF Frank Stanton, of the
book firm OF Stanton s. Davenport, on
Twelfth street, and Miss LYDIA r. Day.
which took place at 10 o'clock. The
church was we'll filled with friends and
relatives of the contracting parties, not
w,thstandins the wedding was not really
of public nature. After the ceremony,
which was performed by the Rev. A Z.
George, a reception was held in the su-
dience room of the church, where the
happy pair received the congratulations
of friends. The bridal party left for the
east on the noon train, yesterday, over
the Cleveland and Pittsburgh railroad.
They will be gone about two weeks.

AnluSelllents.

In view of the fact that there has been
no attraction here for some time past,
Manager Hamilton has engaged for two
nights next week the accomplished
actress, Miss Rose Eytinge, OF whom the
New Haven Palladium says:
"rhe rendition of the play Of Miss
Mutton at the Opera house, last even
ing, was one of the most artistic perfor-
mances OF the season. 1t was complete
in every detail, and gave genuine salts
faction TO the audience. Rose Eytinge
in the role displayed extraordinary tragic
powers. MISS Mutton" as rendered by
her, is creation of her own, and stamps
her us genius. She dresses the part to
perfection. She loses her own iden.
tity and is throughout the tor
tured, wretched wife and mother,
who struggles heroicslly, grsndly, to
live double part, but fails. because
poor human nsturel Is weak, and her tor
ture is the torture of the damned. Miss
Eytinge's portrayal of the character is so
intensely realistic that she keeps her
auditors feelings in q state OF extreme
tension all the time. She WAS born to
play emotional char cters, and fortu.
nstely has the physique and face to stand
the most severe labors. Several times
during the evening the audience was IN
tesrs-not women only, but hale young
men and old veterans"
