The New Senator.
BERKELEY.

Whether Berkeley is a city or not Will
socn be determined. if street rumOrs are
to be trusted. There is some truth behind
them. and it is possible that a suit will be
instituted should there be money enough
pledged TO stand behind 1t to pay the costs.
There will be raised, undoubtedly, the
point that the vote for rein corporation was
not large enough to legally carry it. The
vote for reincorporation was 733. which is
less than one. half Of the total number of
voters who cast their ballots at that cleo
ton. Perhaps some other points will be
raised. but what they will be has not trans
pired. 1t is not at all likely that suit " ill
be begun this month.
Opening OF Allston Way.
The grading and macadamizing of Shat
tuck avenue has quickened the City Coun-
from the former avenue to Oxford street.
With Shattuck avenue open for travel on
the east side of the broad-gauge track the

ritory south aud east Of the university
grounds becomes at once apparent. AT
present there is no thOroughfare. AllstOn
way being impossible because Strawberry
Greek runs through that part OF it. To
carry off the water. which in winter Is OF
considerable volume. will require Z stone
or brick culvsrt three or four feet square
the whole distance of the block. This
will involve considerable outlay. but as
the property abutting upon the street is
comparatively useless now the money will
be we'll expended. The School Depart
ment is especially interested 10 opening
the street, as it will give it full lot on
which to build the new High School.
