Z. F. schurig is now engaged In the
preparation Of plans for placing the wires
OF the city alarm system underground be-
fore next spring, when II is required all
overhead wires shall be removed from the
streets in the central district OF the city.
II would not be practicable to string the
city's wires In any Of the conduits in
which there are cables carrying high
potential currents. but arrangements have
been made whereby they can be placed in
the telephone eompany's conduits through
out the prohibited district. In some por-
lions Of the city this plan has already
been adopted. but In order TO complete the
work IL will be necessary for the city to
construct lateral ducts at a number OF the
street corners extending from the man
holes OF the telephone c~ompany's system

the box connections. The total expense OF

THE Tide of Life" a sensational melo-
drama of the old school with a plethora
of thrilling episodes, will be seen at the
Boyd tonight for but a single perform
ance. The escape OF the heroine by jump
ing from a high bridge to the top of a
moving train; her escape from a building
by climbing down a water sprout; the cleo
trocution Of the villain on a live wire are
several of the thrilling scenes. The story
told by the play is that Of a young woman
brought up amid vicious surroundings, but
who thwarts the schemes of her fellows
for the downfall Of a wealthy family.
Everything ends happily.
