A NEW NEW ENGLAND.

TAIvan F. Sanborn in July Atlantic ]
The trolley roads are rapidly covering
Massachusetts, Rhode Island and Con-
necticut with network that is slowly
and surely redistrfbuting the popula-
ton: 1t seems almost inevitable that a
great part of the present rural area of
these three states will ultimately be in
cluded in the suburbs of their numer-
Gus widely scattered industrial centers
and of their dozen or more larger cities
When this condition arrives. If 1t does
arrive, rural life will have become sub
urban, and farming, aside from market
gardening, viii have practically disap-
peared. The bicycle and good roads
are eNerting a minor but considerable
influence in the same direction.
Equally important is the fact that
large areas in all sections of New Eng
land are in process of transformation
from farms to sites for country seats
Residents of the cities are coming more
and more to make their real homes in
the country They are building their
country houses with more comfort and
more solidity. and are living in them a
much larger part of the year than for
merry The country season extends
already from the 1st of May TO the LIST
OF November. and is still lenethenfng
Improved railway and steam boat trans
portation, the multiplication of large
fortunes, greater leisure, above all a
growing appreciation of the sports and
resources of country life, have contrib
uted TO this result Tt looks very much

BLOOMINGTON IN A HURRY.
Council Passee Improvement Ordi-
nances Enough to Last for Years

Bloomington, Ill, June 29.-The
Bloomington city council Saturday
night read and passed ordinances for
public improvements. providing for IS
miles of pavement u miles Of sewers
and 10 miles of water mains. and call
ing for the expenditure of $40O, 900 for
pavement and $4,000 for sewers and
water mains
The passage of these ordinances was
necessary in order to avoid the provis-
ions of the property frontage law

this law the owners of one-third of the
frontage of a street can block the pass

passed cover every street the improve
ment of which is now demanded by the
