BEAUTIFUL STREET
VIII eeixth Avenue When It Is
Paved.

When Sixth avenue is paved from
one end to the other it will make one
of the incest drives in the city. From
the extreme east to west it is about
three and halt miles long, with beau.
fitul shad trees, and residences on
fo;b sides Along this street are nice
homes and the people are all rejoicing
that they are to have a paved street.
The cost will no doubt be shared by
The street car company. for once they
get rails settled in a permanently i'm
proved street their expense of re-
pairs is reduced to merely nothing
compared to what it is now. All that
could be asked ot them would be to
pave their own track, which they un.
donbtedly would be glad to do.
