LUZERNE STREET CHANGES.

A decided change is being wrought
upon Luzerne street. The councimen
of the Fifth and Fifteenth wards, CO.
operating with the Scranton Traction
company are grading this street in
such a manner as to put 1t in safe and
passable condition. Heretofore, from
existing conditions, it was impossible
at times to proceed along the street
with a heavily loaded wagon, or to
cross from one side of the street to the
other, owing to the elevation of the
rails of the car tracks above the
ground level. These conditions were
brought about by the sinking of the
road bed from mine cavings and the
original laying of the tracks at wrong
grade. Now force of men under Fore
man Jennings have levelled and graded
the street for four blocks from Hyde
Park avenue. Cutters have been cut
and sidewalks are apparent where ve-
hicles formerly travelled. The Trac-
tion company have a force of men un-
der Foreman John Sheehan bringing
the tracks to grade given by the city
engineer, and are rapidly getting into
shape to be followed by the street grad
ing force. The work has progressed
thus far to Sixteenth street. Later the
intersection of Luzerne street and
South Main avenue will be graded and
the tracks altered and great improve
ment will have been accomplished.
