THE NEW PAVEMENT.
What the BPOughton Street I'm
prOvemenL Cost.

What the BPoughtOn Street I'm
prOVemenL Cost.
In few days property owners along
Broughton street will receive their bills
for their respective shares of the cost of
putting down the asphalt pavement. The
cost is about 81 % per front foot of
ground abutting on the street. The total
cost to the property owners will be about
$4,000, and to the city about $500. The
cost to the Coast Line Railwny Company
for paving between its tracks will prOba-
bly, amount to $1,000.
There is pretty sure to be a law suit
over the three feet on either side of the
company's track. The company has re-
fused TO pay it, and the city haspassed an
ordinance saying that the company must
pay. The amount involved is in the
ineighborhoOd Of $4,000.
There has been great delay about
paving the crossings of the City and Sub
urban railway. That company made "A
contract with the firm that paved be-
tween the tracks of the Coast Line road
at the same price, 81 80 per square yard.
The Coast Line road had large job, and
that was begun first. When it was fin
ished the PAYERS were out OF material
More was ordered, but it was delayed by
The change OF gauge on the railroads, and
the PAYERS left the city the day the mate
1ial arrived.
Mr.. Thomas, the new chairman of the
Street and Lane Committee, has not bur-
lied the property owners about paving
and moving the awning poles. Most OF
the pavements have been fixed up, but
some are yet to be fixed. The changing
Df awning poles was necessarily slow, as
there are only few persons in the city
who do that kind of work.
The pavement has added so much to
the appearance OF BrOughton street that
there is talk along the street east of,
Abercorn OF having the curb moved out
10 feet from the building line all the way
to East Broad. Property on BrOughton
between AbercOrn and West Broad has
been rendered more desirable by the
pavement, and it Is stated that Broughton
street is already drawing retail business
from other streets because shoppers pre-
fer to walk and drive on BroughtOn. The
next paving Will probably be on Congress
from DraytOn to Jefferson. Congress is a
narrow street, and the cost would not be
30 heavy as was the cost of paving
BrOughtOn street. A gentleman speak
tDgsOf the matter yesterday said that he
believed the tenants on Congress street
will try TO get on BrOughton street unless
Congress is paved. Nothing can be done.
BOwever, until fail, ON account of the or
iinance against excavating during the
summer.

1t more than any other gives houor

RACES and VOWS vengeance on his

the ecorn which he provokcs. There
is greatness in the one who holds
himself in submission. If it is
better to rule ones own
spirit. than to take a CITY," how
much better than to WELD through

There are those who, If fearful Of
losing their own way. will indulge
in a fit Of passion, even to bring.

exciting such consequences. Cases
