 The court of burgesses have begun pro ceedings, according to the provisions ot the borough charter, to open and improve Willington avenue, known as South-st The public is very much interested 1T the work, and well it may be, for since the removal of the freight depot tc that street, all the heavy travel of the town and vicinity passes over that street besides the heavy hauling of the grain lumber and coal interests located there The matter of little additional expense in putting the street right ought not, anC cannot afford. to enter into the considera. tton of the work contemplated. It is doubtless, work for all time, and when completed should be in keeping with the demands not only of the present, but for period of years beyond the existence ot any now on the stage of action.
