SUNSET VALLEY
GOING AHEAD
The Opening Of Nineteenth
Avenue Is a Neces-
sity.
Several New Buildings in Course
of Erection South of
the Park.
New Streets, Avenues and a Better
System of Sewerage Are Now
Necessity.

I. J. Harris, the real estate agent at
Sunset Valley, says that within the last
six months no less than twenty houses
have been erected and that an equal num-
Der are in course of construction. Building
lots have increased in value correspond
ingly. The great draw pack, however, lies
in the bad condition of the streets and
avenues all through the valley. They
could not be much worse than they are at
the present time. Steps are, however,
now being taken to improve the roadways.
Tenth avenue, from H to o street, is about
to be opened, and this will be the initiative
to other Improvements in a similar line.
1t Will give a starter to the opening
OF Nineteenth avenue, which is so much
sought for at the present time, to gain an
outlet at the southern end of the settle
ment. c. G. Larsen, a public spirited
property-owner, has made the offer to
open street, from Tenth to Nineteenth
avenue, at his own expense.
The importance of the valley as settled
section is appre ciated by Mr.. Viniug of the
Market-street line, as was evidenced few
weeks ago when on visit TO the place he
gave the people there 10 understand that
at no distant day he will have regular
line OF cars running to the valley. At
present there Is large force OF men work
ing on the road putting on the finishing
touches, after which the cars will run
every eight minutes.
The next i'm portaHt question is TO get
suitable school building for he children
that are now deprived of the opportunity
to attend in consequence of there being n o
accom- m odation. 1t is estimated that
there are fully seventy-five school chill
dren ready just as soon as there is room
for them.
Next IN importance is the necessity of
locating building for fire engine. The
nearest engine to the place is at Shrader
street, and this is almost as bad as none at
all, as a FIRE once started would almost
burn itself out before aid conld reach the
place.
AT The next meeting of the Improve
ment Club G. J. Cheney, large property
owner, will bring this N tier before that
body for consideration. The valley at
present has ia reality no outlet so TO
speak 1t is hemmed in on all sides. On
one side the Golden Park stands against 1t
and on the other there are sandhiiis.
What the people want are roads, sewers
and public buildings, with at least cne
good street leading out 10 the main artery,
which in turn lesds into the business por-
tion. Ii the City ana other property
owners would do as much in their line a
Mr.. Larsen is doing in his the Sunset
Valley would take the lead as one or the
most progressive sections of the City.

OF the English regiments up the steep
slopes of the nil, with the guides coming
over the topmost ridge.
The moment number Of them reached
level ground charge of guides was or
deTed and great execution was done, after
which the retreat OF the tribesmen became
a regular rout What il striking TO the
eve is the immense difficulty of getting
over the ground without any regular road.
At the time the only one even partially

New Process for GIass-Making.

4 number of prominent glass manu-
factnrers met at the Monongahela House
recently and decided to build an inde-
penoent plateglsss factory at Elizabeth,
few miles south of Pittsburg, in the
Monongahela Valley, at a cost of $500, 900.
The prospective company will fight the
Pittsburg Plateglass Company and the
plateglsss pool. ana will deyelop an in
vention patented by George Marsh OF
Sandusky, Ohio. The invention, it is
said, will revolutionlze the manufacture
OF piate-glass. By means of it the com.
pany, il is claimed, will be able to make
plateglass equal to the best French prod
uct, and at cost less than that Of ordi-
nary American plateglass.
The device holds the sheet of glass in
its frame by means of suction while the
sheet IS being polished. The glass may
then be easily reversed and the other side
polished. At present expensive plaster Of
paris casts are used in the polishing pro-
cess, and even then many sheets crack be-
fore completion. Il is said the Marsh pat
ent reduces the loss during the polishing
process almost to nothing. The new man
uiactory will give employment TO several
hundred men. Mr.. Marsh's patent is
known by the Pittsburg Plate-gIass Com
pany. This corporation offered the in
ventor $3.50, 900 for the device, but he re-
