the Aldermen.
 The board of aldermen will soon have to deal with proposed change in the city or dinances which will revise the law now pro viding that no street paved only with hard earth can be repaired with crushed stone. Under the present law only macadam pave ments may be repaired with stone. A dirt street cannot be put in repair with satisfac. tion if dirt is used, and the only relief is by action of the permanent paving commission whose powers are so limited that it could order only an entirely new stone pavement. The proposed change, which has the back. ing of prominent citizens and officials, will. if passed, permit of immediate repair of dirt streets with crushed stone. The matter will be brough up at the next meeting of the al- dermen.
