BELGIAN BLOCKS.
Something About the Boulevard Pro.

posed 20 be Blocked.
A gentleman said, yesterday, he would
guarantee the Board OF Public Works
would find Belgian block pavement on
Chapline street, as proposed, would be
cheaper, after year, than the antiquated
cObble street. The statement is made In q
New York paper, that only $l.75 was ne.
cessary in one year to keep in rep.ir q
certain b. lgian pavement there. The
blocks remained intact, but a few became
unsettled by the jostling of wagons.
The proposition 70 have the citizens liv-
ing along Chapline from Twenty second
TO Twenty third, subscribe $780, does not
meet with any great favor. The under.
standing fs that Belgian will cost that sum,
for the block in excess OF cobble stones.
But citizens interested say this: They
have for years paid their proportion OF
the taxes that went 70 pave other sections
OF the city and that they are now entitled
to something.
The block referred TO is undoubtedly the
prettiest portion OF the city and should
demand some little care. Besides being
lined with handsome dwellings on both
sides, with the new Centre sc hool. and its
row Of shade trees, this block Is the driv.
ing ground Of the city. in summer. and Is
magnificent boulevard. Let IL be Belgian

THE EXPLANATION
OF the Want or Connection on the E. G.
Road.

Yesterday afternoon reporter for the
REGISTER met Secretary Rutter and had a
short talk with him in relation to the want
OF connection between the motors and
horse cars, at Stack yard hollow. The re-
porter explained the complaints he had
heard and Mr.. Rutter explained the cause:
I'VE prefer," said he, "to have people
wait en- the pike, to running any risk. The
road, you understand, has not been entire
ly ballasted over the new route and We do
not wish to run the motor at speed over 1t.
1t might be attended with danger. II is far
better TO have passengers wait awhile, than
to endSnger their lives"
But when will this end?'
I'VE expect to have the road fully bal
lasted by the end of next week, at farthest.
When that is completed, the motor will
run at speed and make exact connection
When this is done it will end the growl-
ing. Many customers of the road are now
talking of buying horses and vehicles, but
with the above assurance will probably be
content.
The new and elegant Brunswick" will
be oIen to the public to-day. Call and see

monies attending the closing of the Roman

from the cardinals residence to the cathe-
dral preceded the mass, as at the opening

tory of the church and her trials and tri-
umphs, was preached by Bishop O'Far-

signed by the cardinal, by the bishops in
the order OF seniority and by the officers
of the council. The DEGREES were her
sealed with the cardinals seal, and will be
sent to Rome for approval. The council
was then formally declared closed by the
cardinal, the TIE Deim sung, and the kiss of
peace given by the cardinal. Pontifical
vesper services aud u sermon were
preached by Bishop McMerney.
