Many Notable Improvements in West

So many improvements are being made
in West HoDoken just now, that when
they are finished, the little town will be a
picturesque nucleus for North Hudson's
city of the future.
A new town hall and new fire houses,
recently completed; q school house, thor
oughly repaired and renovated; a good
sewerage system, and last but not least,
the grading of Clinton avenue, from
Malone street to the car stables, are
among the most important improve
ments
The grading of Clinton avenue and
Stevens street, which virtually reclaims
hundreds OF feet OF low swamp land and

ton. A new line of cars running on Sum

Central avenue, is another proof of the

man-or tom cat, he did not know which
-on his back fence the other evening Just
as he was retiring, and without a mo-
ment's delay proved himself equal to the
occasion By drawing his revolver and
firing three shots at the shadow.
The shots did the shadow no harm, but
they did seriously damage the window
shade, two window panes and four Stats
of the shutters. Some Of the n~eighbors
say that Adolph went down stairs with q
coal scuttle and a broom, intending to
sweep together the mangled remnants of
the shadow, but this he st~renuously
denies.
Adolph has issued an invitation to the
shadow to return, but so far it has failed to
m~aterialize.
