one years time, is conceded by all to be
the finest, and has the best advantages
around the city of st. Paul. The ''Bur-

tor trains and the fare is only six cents
per ride. There are now about 200
houses erected, and the population is
about 1000. Our streets are not less
than 50 feet wide, and there are miles of
streets graded, sidewalks laid, and trees
planted.
ST. PAUL PARK will no doubt be
the largest suburb to the city.
