The Council committee on sewers, streets

last night in the city clerks office and de-
cided to defer action on the matter until
the Supreme Court renders an opinion on

Barrett law.
The committee took up the ordinance in
troduced by Councilman Negley at the last
meeting to provide for the removal of dirt
from sidewalks that is washed there or
left on the walks after public improve
ments have been made. After some dis
cussion the committee decided to report
favorably on the ordinance. The object OF
the ordinance is to reach nonresidents who
allow the sidewalks in front of their prop
erty to remain impossible after improve
ments have been made. If they don't do
the work it will be done by the city and
charged against the property owners. The

at st. Johns Church this week, addressed

corner Georgia street and Capitol avenue
The reverend father spoke of incidents of
young boys, who had followed regiments
over the Philippines islands as mascots;
how some of them thrived under the hard
ships which they were forced to endure
and how some succumbed TO these hard
ships and found a resting place either on
the shores of Asia or the archipelago. He
rected many funny stories of these hapless
youngsters and how two OF them pro-
cured a small boat in some manner and
rowed out into the bay 10 cali upon Ad-
miral Dewey. They accomplished their
purpose and the admiral was so impressed
with the boys that he took them to Hong
Kong. where one of them later died from
fever. After Father Doherty's address re-
freshments were served and the evening
was spent in singing and recitations.

TO OPEN NEW STREETS
A MOVEMENT ON FOOT TO BENEFIT
THE WEST SIDE.
The Parry Company's New Plant VIII
Give Employment to Five
Thousand People.

Since the Parry Company purchased
Of the river and Chandler & Taylor TWEEN
ty-six, there has been started a movement
to open some new streets west of the river,
there being a large tract OF land not ac-
cessible except over crooked driveways or
by-paths- In commenting on this matter
one OF the residents OF West Indianapolis
said:
ut Is fact that passage from north
to south cannot be made between Missouri
street, on the east, and Harding street on
the west. or, in other words, there is no
roadway running north and south between
Missouri street on the east and the Belt
Railroad on the west. A street should be
opened from West Washington street along
the west side of White river, depressing
the driveway so as to pass under the Big
Four and Vandalia Railroads. This is per-
fectly practical and not expensive. Then
South street should be opened straight west
through Greelawn Cemetery, the river
bridged and South street continued through
to the Belt Railroad. There is now no pass
way north and south from Washington
street, on the north, to Merrill street. on
the south. AS the streets now are all that
part Of the city bounded by Washington
street on the north, Merrill street on the
south, Missouri street on the east and the
Belt Railroad or Harding street on the
west, are practically cut off from direct
communication.
1.-The Parry Manufacturing Company ex-
pect 10 begin this fall the erection Of their
plant on the west side of the river. This
factory when completed will employ not
less than five thousand people. This vast
number OF people thrown in with the thou
sands who now live within the limits
named will necesstate the opening of new
streets. This had better be done now and
save much expense to the CITY,"
