THE NEW UNION AVENUE

The Committee on Streets Vote to
Recommend That the New Proposed
Union Avenue be Ef&hty-five Feet
Wide-The Depot to be Forty Feet
Back from the Street.
Aldermen johnson and Keane and Coun-
cilmen Peck and Helm, four members of
the committee on streets, met in the city
hall last evening and for an hour and a
half wrestled with the resolution in refer
ence to the New York, New Haven and
Hartford Railroad company de the con-
struction of the proposed new Union ave-
nue., etc., and finally IT,, committee voted
to send the resolution, which was printed in
full in the COURIER last Saturday morning
together with certain notifications adopted
at last nights meeting, to the court of COM
mon council as the report of the committee
on streets.
The changes or notifications Of the re-
port are first, that the proposed new ave-
nue. shall be eighty-fve feet wide, and the
railroad company shall pave the same with
dimension granite blocks; secondly, that
the new depot shall be erected at dis
lance of forty feet back from the avenue,
and, thirdly, that the railroad company
shall enter into contract with the city for
the maintenance of the present sewer upon
the property of the railroad company and
for the right of the construction of new
sewers thereon as may be found necessary
and ordered by the court of common coun-
Gil.
The report of the committee on streets
will come up for action in the board of al
dermen next Monday evening and in the
board of councilmen the following Mon
day evening, and it is expected that the re-
port will be adopted by both branches of
the court of common council.

TO WIDEN ELM STREET.

The Conference Committee demands
the Grand Avenue Street Widening
to the Committee on Streets with
Recommendation OF Widening Elm
street.
The conference committee from the
board of aldermen and board of council
men on the proposed Grand avenue Wild
ening plan met in the mayors Office last
night The full committee, consisting of
Aldermen Moore and Gilhuly and Council
men Mcneil, Reagan and Rabanus, were
present. The committee were not in favor
of widening Grand avenue and not Elm
street, at State, at the same time. Where
the State street horse railroad turns the
corner of Elm the danger is as great a. on
the Grand avenue corner. The sidewalk
there is wider than little further up Elm
street, and the street could be widened
there without much difficulty. The land
on that corner 10 owned by Alfred A. Eel.
logg.
Although the sentiment Of the commit
Giand avenue widening, they were, how
ever, not in favor of leaving Elm street in
its present condition, and the best way out
of the matter seemed to be to have both
questions settled at once.
Tho extra expense entailed by tho carry
ing out of this new proposition may pre-
vent the carrying out of the entire scheme
for widening Grand avenue at its junction
with State street and the widening of st.
John street also. This, though, will be
later contingent. The details Of the pro.
posed widening of Elm street ars left to
the committee on streets and the board Of
public works to consider.

A SAD OCCURRENCE.

A Young Lady From Birmingham
Stricken by the Heat While Riding
on Dixwell Avenue Yesterday After.
nOon-She Dies Later In the Evening
A Bereaved Family.
One of the saddest and most painful
events which it is our duty to chronicle
occurred yesterday afternoon on Dixwell
avenue. Miss Alice Kelly, twenty-four
years of age, the daughter of Mr.. Fergus
Kelly. buckle manufacturer of Birming-
ham, drove to this city yesterday morning
in company with her mother, brother and
two sisters, in order to professionally con-
suit Dr. Bacon of this city. She has been
in rather poor health for some time, but
the ride seemed to make her feel much bet
ter, insomuch that when she arrived here
she did not wish to consult with the doc
tor. The family then drove up Dixwell
avenue, and the young lady expressed de-
sire to drink some "malto." They stopped
accordingly at Storer's drug store, near
Foote street, and secured the desired drink.
She expressed herself as greatly revived by
it and again entered the carriage. They
had not proceeded far, however, before she
said to her mother that she felt like faint
ing and she Immediately sank back in the
carriage in a dead faint.
Mrs. A. F. Butler of 214 Dixwell avenue
saw her sink back in the carriage and her
mother attempting to support her. She
Immediately brought some water and urged
them to bring her into the house, whittier
they shortly took her, and Drs. Converse
and stetson were Immediately called. She
rapidly grew worse, however, and died at
2 O'clock. Tho remains were taken to her
home in Birmingham last evening on the
II o'clock train. Her father was sum-
moned by telegraph and arrived soon after
her death.
Miss Kelly was an estimable young lady,
we'll known in the social circle of Birming.
ham, and her death will be greatly lament
ed by a large circle of friends and rsla-
tives. Her sudden death away from home
was especially sad, but the kind treatment
which the bereaved family received at the
hands OF utter strangers was very grateful
and comforting to them.

KEEP OFF THE SIDES,
Danger from OvercrowdIng the Elec.
rrIc Cars.

Danger from OvercrowdIng the Elec-
trIc Cars.
The danger from the trolley system has
strangely enough resulted from sources
not accounted for in the breezy attacks
against it. The accidents 30 far in this
city have resulted largely from careless
ness In standing of persons on the foot
rails at the sides of the cars.
A New Havener. who has studied the
workings of the electric system in other
cities, said last night: If there are going
to be electric cars in this city, they will
have to make a rule, and enforce it, too,
that the passengers must sit inside. There
10 almost as much danger from the
fooling on an electric ear as on
Q railroad train. The cars run
faster than when horses are attached to
them. Besides, two oars pass each other
without much warning from either side.
In Springfield, and all other cities know
whers electric motive power is useI, the
passengers are no more allowed to hang on
TO the sides of the cars than they would be
TO stand on the platforms Of railway
train.
This practice Of promiscuously jumping
of and on tho cara that 10 In vogue on tho
Savin Rock cars will have to be done away
with or there will DO more broken heads
than have yet happened.

AN HARMONICA CRANK.

A Figure Familiar to Dixwell Ave-
nue. People - Touched With the
Divine Frenzy.
One of the most noticeable characters
that one meets on Dixwell avenue is a
colored brother Familiarity known as
''Sam Scott" of Hudson street. Sans fad
is the harmonics, which he is constantly
playing, being quite an expert. "Sam" is
employed by Hillman, the Chapel street
ice cream man, and it is rumored that the
seductive strains of the hsrmonica have
quite captured Sans fancy. Every even
ing he can be seen rushing down the ave.
nue. violently manipulating his little
instrument and wholly absorbed in his
music. When accosted by friends he does
not know them, but PUSHES by with an in
difference and absorption that is startling.
But they do not mind. They have respect
for "Ssm's" musical tendencies, and ex-
pect that some day he will startle the
world witha Beethoven symphony execut-
ed on the harmonics.

A NARROW ESCAPE.
A Vicious Horse Kicks a WOma
Almost Fatally Injuring Her.

A Vicious Horse Kicks a Woman,
Almost Fatally Injuring Her.
What came near being a fatal accident
to a worthy lady occurred yesterday after
noon in the yard surrounding the house
No. 1853 Orchard street. For some time
past horse belonging to Mrs. Flynn,
who keeps a grocery store on Day street,
has been allowed his freedom during the
afternoons, and has in consequence rambled
here, there and everywhere in search of
grass, often entering dooryards and
menacing little children who happened to
be near Yesterday afternoon the animal
entered the yard of Mr.. Edgar Scofeld on
Orchard street. Mrs. Scofeld attempted
to drive the animal into the street, where
upon it turned and made vicious kick at
her, hitting her upon the thigh. making a
painful wound. Mrs. Sco6eld dragged
herself into the house, and restoratives
being applied she was rendered as comfort
able as possible under the circumstances.
1t was narrow escape from
instant death, as several witnesses
say who were in the vicinity.
1t will be some time before she fully re-
covers from the severe blow. It was stat
ed by Mr.. Sco6eld last evening that it is
possible suit for dam ages will be insti-
tuted, as the owners of the horse have no
right to allow it to wander about the streets
! as has been the case.
John Shugrue has also been kicked by

A COSTLY MISTAKE.
The Engineering Department of the
City Responsible for Serious Error
in the Matter OF the Warrington

The Engineering Department OF the
City Responsible for Serious Error
in the Matter OF the Warrington
Street Sewer Assessment.
While the weather outside the city hall
yesterday was anything but cool, inside
that building it was extremely warm, and
this was more especially the case in the
rooms of the be ard of compensation, where
the heat was fully up to the boiling point
and the members of the board were busily
engaged in trying to devise some means to
escape out of what just at present would
appear to be a most perplexing dilemma.
The matter which at present is disturb
ing the minds of the members of the board
of compensation is this: About two
months ago the board sent out and caused
| to be advertised the assessments for bene-
fits and damages for the Washington street
sewer, several hearings on the matter hav-
ing been held.
It is always the custom of the board of
compensation in laying these assessments
to make use of map of the locality pre-
pared by the engineering department of
the board of public works, and which is
supposed to have been corrected up to
date. Right mere ID Wnere the trouple
comes in. In this instance the map fur
nished by the engineering department was
not correct and several mistakes have been
detected and in consequence Edward NJ.
Clark is assessed on 14S feet next to the
Boulevard sewer, whereas in reality he
only owns lis feet. having some time age
sold the other SO feet to another party,
and farther up the street the estate OF
Massena Clark, which owns 80 feet on the
street does not come in for any portion OF
the assessment.
In consequence of these errors the
assessments are incorrect and the property
owners refuse to pay. The mistake also
entails a loss of about $40O.on the city TO,
advertising, the advertisement being suct
lengthy one, SO that It will be readily
seen that it will prove a costly one to thu
city. The board of compensation is a
present in quandary as to just wha
steps to take in the matter. An effor
will be made to have the matter reported
back to the board for reassessment, blu
: this action is not considered legal by SOM
members of the board and others, and il
: consequence the opinion of the cooperation
counsel has been requested. This is be
: lieved to be the first instance of the kint
l on record and is creating no end of com
ment in and around the city hall. Jus
, which of the engineering department i
) responsible for the mistake has not a
vet been ascertained.
