NILL BEGIN THIS week
WORK ON PARK STREET
Ths Cty's Part OF the Paving vii Be
Begun July Tine City Engineer
Decides TO Make Sewer Con-
tions OF Park Street.

Yesterday gangs OF men were sent by
z. o. Dugan & Co. out to the quarries
{ o take out granite blocks for paving
from which the contractors will get
their stone, ocated near each other at
Beef Straight and Homestake canyons.
The street railroad company has had
men working for some time getting out
paving blocks and has quite a quantity
already piled up in the freight yard.
The street car company expects to be-
gin the work OF paving this week. II is
desirous of getting its part OF h work
done, particularly on Park street, so
that the cars can run u~ninterruptedly
during the races. The city's part of the
paving will be begun IN July. but II the
street car tracks are torn up at that
time the crowds to the race track can
not be handled and so the company ex-
poets TO get most of its share Of the paw
ing lone before the races start on July
2. The company has its rails on hand.
The street car company's paving will be
done under the direction OF +. w. Black
ford, formerly city engineer.
City Engineer B~ickenbaugh had de-
cided to go ahead and make all sewer.
water and gas connections not yet made
by people of Park street. All residents
in the district to be paved were notified
several weeks agolto make these con-
nections at once. Many have complied.
but some Y not. The city will now
make these connections and charge the
cost to the property.
Park street will be the first street
paved. The work of putting i'm the catch
basins on that street was begun last
week
There may be delay in starting the
city's share of the paving on account of
the fact that the contract for curbing
has not yet been let. The curbing has
to be done ahead of the paving and un-
less the curbs are quarred faster han
IL likely the paving will not be started
until a little after July 1. Bids for the
curbing will be opened by the council at
tomorrow nights meeting and IL is
probable that the contract will be let
at hat time. The specifications have
been slightly changed. A concrete foun-
dalton for the curbs will be required
where there Is no area wall. The city
decided to readvertise for bids for curb
Ing. as only one bid was received before
and that seemed excessive. II was for
$3.50. whereas the contract was let a
year z for 50 cents. The contract is
thought TO have been a losing PROPOSE
ton at the latter figure. but the city
authorities think there would be a very
good profit in the curbing at s1.25 or
$3.50.
II has been decided 10 pave in front
OF the public library. The district TO be
paved under the contract only extends
on Broadway as far West as Academy
street. As the city owns the library II
has been decided to pave the south side
of Broadway from Academy street west
TO the west end of the library lot.
Work on the Arizona street sewer sys-
tenn was begun yesterday. Under the
contract the limit for starting this work
was last Friday. but Mr.. Jennings. the
was delayed in getting his
sewer pipe and the work was not begun
until yesterday.

rTOfn ffdfreT ; 1NOunu 1dDle.
A magic photograph is a photograph
which can be made to appear on an
apparently blank piece of paper. The
process of making il is as follows:
Make a Photographic print on a piece
of albumen paper. printing Ii the exact
ton desired in the finished print.
Wash for two or three minutes and
place, without toning, in the fixing
bath, composed of one ounce of hypo
and eight ounces of water. Leave the
print in the fixing bath for five min
utes. wash thoroughly, then place 1t in
a saturated solution of bichloride of
mercury until the picture has entirely
disappeared. Leave II in this solution
just long enough to bleach out the
print. then vas n dry as for other
prints. The paper now appears per-
fectly white, but il contains a latent
or invisible image. The magic by
which the picture is made to appear is
the action of hyposulphite of soda.
Soak a piece Of clean blotting paper in
a saturated solution of hyposulphite Of
soda n dry. When IL is desired to
make the picture appear moisten the
blotting paper slightly and place the
picture IN IL face down. rubbing il to
insure perfect contact. In a minute or
" the picture will begin 70 appear
and will soon be as bright and clear as
when first printed. When one wishes
TO show this magic photograph it is
more surprising to the uninitiated IL
the blotting paper has been moistened
and placed inside a book Show the
apparently blank piece of paper, slip it
in the book and in a minute or two
take IL out, and what was to all ap-
pearance a piece of plain white paper
will be found TO have a picture printed
on IL. The picture will disappear after
being exposed to the light for some
time. but II can be made to reappear
