The new line between Providence and
Cranston seems TO be mt last practically
established. The line determined mainly
through the influence of the Auburn rep
resentative runs from the old line south
erly along the line of the New York
Providence and Boston railroad to the
southern side OF Hathaway street, then
easterly along Hathaway street, across
Elmwood avenue TO the boundary of land
owned by Daniel y. Potter, southerly
again. crossing Park avenue, easterly
along the southern side of Park avenue
to a line 100 feet beyond the eastern boun-
Diary of the land condemned for park pur-
poses, then northerly connecting with the
old line again.
This gives the city small margin on
the land condemned for the park and at
the same time reserves t. the town of
Cranston the front on the northerly side
of Park avenue, from the y. Y, Il. &. B.
X. r., To the boundaries of land owned bv
Daniel n. Potter. The reason for this
reservation Is to prevent anyone who
might think Auburn a good field for n
liquor saloon. from obtaining a license
from the city and establishing themselves
In the midst OF Auburn and yet Just over
the city line where the laws of Cranston
would have no effect upon them. Auburn
at present has no liquor saloons and
means to have none
Mr.. Frank f. Streeter assisted by Miss
Narina Z. Brown, soprano. and Mr..
George Wheelright, tenor gave an organ
recital on the new organ at the Free Bap-
tist Church last evening. The audience
room was filled with listeners who went
away well pleased both with the new
organ and the way in which it was hand
led by Mr.. Streeter.
A vestry meeting was held at the Church
of the Ascension last evening to hear re-
ports from the committee on the new
organ. There Is yet difference of few
hundred dollars between the funds i'm
hand and the sum desired for the new in
strument.

Club went on blind run through Provi.

talking of the Harrison situation. This

The motive for suppressing the maneu-

improvements.
Colonel Prosser, Of the harbor line COM
mission, was in his Office this morning,
busily engaged in clearing up matters that
have accumulated during his absence.
He has just returned from an inspection
Of the harbors at Ilwaco, Gray's Harbor,
and neighboring points, in company with
the United States engineers On his way
from Seattle yesterday he was accompanied
by Col. G.. II. Mendel, chairman Of the
board Of government engineers, who was
en- route to headquarters in San Francisco.
The harbor line commission is preparing
plans for such improvements at Olympia's
harbor as may be made under appropria-
tions allowed by the state. Seventy-fve
per cent Of the proceeds arising from the
sale Of tide lands in this harbor may be
used for its improvement. The commits
sion is endeaYoring to have these improve
ments made in conjunction with the plans
and improvements contemplated by the
united states engineers under congress
sional appropriation.
Captain Thomas W. Symons, of the
board Of government engineers, has charge
of the improvement Of the Olympia harbor
for the United States. Plans have been
prepared in accordance with the limits Of
the appropriation, $35 900, and forwarded
to the secretary of war. When the plan
have been returned specifications will be
drawn up by the officer in charge of the
work, showing exactly what he expects to
accomplish with the amount Of money set
aside for Olympia. Captain Symons Is in
charge Of twenty different harbOrs of Wash
ingtOn and Oregon. 1t is thought the
Olympia plans will be here inside of ten
days. This would give time to advertise
for bids and get the work under way before
the first of October
Major Thos. II. Hanbury, who has charge
of the Improvements at Vancouver, has
taken the same course with the harbor at
that place. He has 5000 at his disposal
appropriated by congress.
The harbOT line commission will have
some Improvements made at Shelton at an
early date.
Those in charge Of the government work
will push the matter through as rapidly as
possible 50 as TO get something accom-
plished before the rainy season begins.
Colonel Prosser left for Portland this af
ternOon, but will return in few days.
