CRANSTCN.
D:bating as 10 What Shall Be- Done With
Aliens Avenue.

Now that work upon Cranston str. ct has
been suspended until spring, attention Is
turned TO Allea avenue stru sling 20 take a
stand among boulev ards. This avenue has
been b,ou hit 10 ade and now awaits a top
dressing. The question now debated in reln-
tiol to the finishing of this avenue is "shall
Aliens avenue re Give n top dressing Of
gravel, or shall IL be Macldamizcdy" ?"
Some say the teaming on this avenue will be
lght-mostly tnrriages-and that top
dressing Of gravel will make n good surfsco
and certainly the most appropriate kind Of
one considering the towns fnanci i CON
dition.
Others say that IL has been the sad expert
ence ~ the town to be forced, after n few
years Of wear, TO remove gravel surfaces and
Macadamize the roads.
Cranston street Is cited as an illustration.
At intervals during ten years or more gravel
was posit,d upon that street. Each new
deposit seemed only 10 lend TO tho street an
appetite for more, until the uneven surface
had 20 be removed at n cost Of about 5000
and the street afterward Macada mized.
This question must be decided before the
special financial meeting so that sum
sufficient will be appropriated.
The cutters OF Cranston street through
Knightsvill, are being cleaned

others that it occurred on Steven street,
and one witness was positive the robbery
was committed Mt IoolyilIe. Mr.Co was
accused of having knocked down Edward
Green, and of taking a gold ana silver
watch from the lstter's pockets. An al
legged witness of the affair said the watch
teken was a nickle plaltd one and that one
of the watches offered IL the court was tho
one stolen and positively identified
handsome silver watch as the nickle
watch he saw tskeo. Cox said that
Green, who seemed dissatisfied With the
result Of the rect nj national election. after
asking for a match knocked him down
aud the watches got tangled In dress
suit vest. Judge Keefo sal the prisoner
Randall square and The jury must remem-
Der that fact.
Eugene Connolly acted as prosecuting
attorney general, and his plan for the

and be rather upset the latter in cross
examination. Edward Ryan. who de-
Tended Cox, steered his client around
some sharp rccks an d overcame Judge
Keefe's prejudice against q dress suit.
Several Of the witnesses were very origi-
pal in their testimony and their sympo-
tbiss seemed TO lie With Cox.
Timothy Slattery was foreman Of the
jury and he also was very friendly to the
prisoner and succeeded In getting his IL
companions to bring In a verdict of
not guilty. The verdict was well received.
