THE REPAIRED BOULEVARD

An example of the manner in which the
Boulevard were made is to be found al
Duncan avenue and at Belmont avenue
At the former street there is a depres-
sim an inch deep and several feet wide
filed with water. This cannot now on
and it will have to be absorbed py the
sun. AT the latter spot there are a dozen
small holes, all of a dangerous nature 10
the unwary rider. .
Those remarkable arc lights played
some more of their eccentric pranhs az
evening by going out at regular intervals
of five minutes

BIRCH is STILL OUTSIDE
The Anxiety For His Return Seems
to Have Lessened.

Mr.. Edwin Birch is still outside of the
Republican fold. The committees APP
pointed at the last meeting of the Sew
enth Ward Association has not visited
him as yet. There is a growing impress
sion that the ardor of the members has
greatly cooled. and that the Republicans
are not o-ver-anxious to again have him
within the breastworks.
One of the members said last night that
the committee had never met, but is ex-
pecting TO be called together by the chair
man, Mr.. Alexander Richter. The sug-
gestion to appoint the committee was
made by Mr.. Richter. and it appears
strange that he has so suddenly lost in
terest in the matter.
