Beauty, comfort and responsibility are the
dominant features Of the Fort Greene section
Its streets are finely laid out. asphalted in many
places tree lined and in all clean as the pro-
verbal kitchen floor. The ground is high, the
houses generally Of brownstone and the sur
roundings as attractive they are desirable for
residential purposes. Among the swell streets
in this district are that part Of Cumberland
known as Washington Park. Lafayette-ave..
South Oxford-st.. South Elliott Place South
Portland-ave and Fort Greene Place The fine
three-story and basement brownstone houses IN
this neighborhood seldom change hands and are
mostly private homes. In recent years brick
houses or buildings in brick and stone have
crept into the district TO relieve the monotony OF
the prevailing brownstone fronts. The Fort
Greene district is admirably situated, so far as
the main arteries Of the trolley-car system are
concerned, yet II is beyond hearing Of the oustIe
OF trade or the roar Of traffic. Considering the
locality and the fact that all OF the houses mere
have the most modern accommodations from
basement TO top floor. rentals and prices or real
estate are reasonable. In spite of this and the

HEALTH OFFICIALS WAKING Up.
THE CASE OF THE PLANET MILLS SMOKE
NUISANCE IN THE DISTRICT-AT-
TORNFY-S OFFICE

The local Board OF Health has finally lifted the
pail Of lethargy which has covered II for such a
long time and unless the chief officials OF that De-
partment become afraid Of the effects Of unwonted
activity upon themselves it is probable that they
may pay some attention 10 public needs and null
sances. II they work in harmony with the local
School Board and get the District-Attorneys
Office TO act promptly it is likely that the soft-coal
smoke nuisance that has been making the lives OF
the residents Of South Brooklyn miserable for
months may be abated or removed.

compelling the Planet Mills to give up the use OF
soft coal has emboldened propretors Of other
nearby manufactures 10 follow the example set by
the mills The Planet Mills about block

the local School Committee about this some time
ago. and the case laid before DR.. R. A Black.
Assistant Sanitary Superintendent. Red-tape Ideas
were then followed The local committee referred
the matter TO the Health Board. The latter
Board sent its inspectors to investigate the COM
plant. and the Board served notice on the Planet
Mills that II the nuisance was not abated legal
action would be taken. No attention was paid to
this, and the Health Board then referred the case
10 the Distrct-Attorney's office.
Dr.. Black says so far this office is con-
cerned we should prefer indictments, but the Dis
trict-Attorney's Office seems to think that the
better way would be to arrest the proprietors OF
the Planet Mills and take them before the court
Of Special Sessions. Then, II the complaint stands
