The Neeker- Rifle road Is in very bad
condition these days-porticularly the
Garfield county end Of 1t. The author
tiles over there seem to be very negli-
gent in keeping the road in repair, so
that in places 1t is dangerous for even
light rigs to pass over 1t. The com
missioners of that county will put off
the work Of making needed repairs un-
til they have suit for damages on their
hands.

Loose stock, mostly horses, have
ruined large number of the trees set
out around the park last spring. Ills
too bad that such thing should have
been allowed. as the trees were set out
at considerable expense to the town and
were nearly all alive and doing well last
fall. The only thing to do now is to re-
place the trees destroyed and to watch
the stock more closely in the future.

THE CAPE EXTENSION.
First Electric Car Run over the Road to
Cape Cottage Yesterday.

The new extension of the Cape electric
road is now completed as far as Cape Cot
tage and a car was run over the new line
for the first time yesterday forenoon. The
trolley wires are strung the entire distance
and everything is in good running order
1t was found necessary to use car al
ready in service in toning up the wires
and anchoring them, as the road bed
would not admit of using tower wagon,
owing to it's being graded higher than
the main road
A neat temporary structure is to be
erected at the terminus of the extension,
to be used as waiting room, and shelter.
Work on the building will probably begin
the first of next week.
A regular car will be put in service on
the extension early Saturday morning to
connect with every Willard car at the
junction of Angel avenue and the shore
road, making round trips every half hour.
The regular summer time table will
probably go into effect about the middle
of June, when cars will make regular
trips from Monument square direct to
Cape Cottage. The new time table will
also make arrangements to connect with
the late island steamers.
Commencing Saturday evening, the
Casino at Willard will remain open until
IL O'Clock every evening. The last car
will leave for the city at II .o5 p. m.
