WORK ON BAND STAND.
Letter Received saying that the Casting
Has Been shipped.

The work on the band stand in the
public square has again started after
a lengthy delay in the material, which
has been the source of great annoy
ance to those who have charge OF the
work. The trench for the concrete
curbing was completed Yesterday and
the workmen began preparing for the
work of making the curb. which is I'M
der the supervision of Contractor
Heinz. As soon as the curbing has
been completed. the enclosed ground
will be filed in with the dirt that has
been living in the square for number
of weeks and the plot sodded.
The sodding of the plot will con
clude the work en- the ground and the
only remaining work will be the plac-
ing of the casting ON the stand, which
has been the cause of all of the delay
as it should have arrived last fall.
Councilman Cline received letter
vesteld av stating that the casting had
heen shipped on May % and that he
could look for its arrival at any time
This letter was verv gratifying to the
members of the council, who have the
supervision of the work, as the delay
has caused them a large amount OF
worry and Inconvenience. They have
been in communication with the man
ufactnrers since early in the spring
and this is the only satisfactory letter
that they have yet received. AS soon
as the casting arrives it will be put in
plaee, which if it arrives soon will
mean the early completion Of the
work.
