Apctition win nc sentout.

On Monday Captain John w. Wood,
under the supervision of the Street
Committee will begin paving the centre
of. GdsSOw street with rock. 1t will
probably take about 80 days to complete
the work AS soon as this is completed
the same force will begin work on South
street. which they will pave with vitri-
fled brick. AT meeting of the Street
Committee held Friday night the ques-
ton of asking the Council, in view of
the paving of the streets and that the
sewers would soon be put i'm operation,
that the committee would request the
Council to get up a circular requesting
all parties who have no water to run
the pipes TO the sidewalk, also the sewer
pipes for future use. The bricks make u
beautiful street. and one that will make
our citizens feel proud. But IL after it
is laid it is all torn up to lay pipes, 1t
can never be put back TO look so nice
again. 1t will also cost the property
owners more to run the pipes after the
paving is done than it would beforehand
The same thing will apply to County
street
