In the opinion of Superintendent
Nelson, Main street from the post
Office to Depot square hasa good foun-
dation and the most advisable method
of putting it in good condition would
be to tear off the present coating of
concrete, where that substance still
remains. fill up the holes and recover
it with concrete thick enough to make
it acceptable. Such Il method would
make the street durable. The road
has settled down all that it is likely
to, and concrete put on as it should
be, would make a good street. 1t is
probable that this will be done next
spring.

from the stage and at times is held
spellbound. There is an ample am

several scenes, which brightens the
more emotional and sensational parts.

ably supported.

cess in it's infancy and has grown
steadily in its popularity. The pub

merits of the comedy and it's mirth
provoking qualities by extending it's
patronage and crowding the theatres
