A HERALD reporter yesterday took q

Work on the road was begun in Girard-

road will be in operation between that place
and town by the middle of February.
The power and car house is under roof
and will be enclosed within few days so
that the masons and their workmen will be
protected from the inclement weather.
The boilers Of the engine house are in posi-
tion and the work of constructing the build
ing is going ahead rapidly.
The road is graded to Grardville and the
rails are down, with the exception of small
spaces here and there, to near the base ball
ground, The work of erecting trestles will
begin this week. Tn re will be two near
| Cleary's one at Lest G eek and two at the
Kohinoor culm bank. One of the trestle:
at the latter place will be long one. The
work of cutting road bed around the bank
is big undertaking, but it has progressed
rapidly.

TO grow under his feet when assigned to the
West Coal street division. he has made
excellent progress in that section.
! The heaviest grade along the whole line
between town and Girardville is not more
than six per cent.
1t ia stated upon what appears TO be re-

1t seems that the injunction served
on the Mahanoy City, Shenandoah,

over the old water company's line, is
not the frightful thing it appears to be
to some people. 1t is understood that
the workmen on the road will be
transferred to other points until the
embargo can be removed or brought to
close quarters. The stand taken by
the railway company appears to be a
reliance upon the right of way granted
by the borough, and the borough will
