the long established merchant near
Water street, has been indisposed. for
some days with symptoms OF La
Grippe. Nevertheless, during his i'll
ness, he ceases not to plan for the days
of restored health. To enlarge his
business facilities he is having the
debris cleared away preparatory to
the erection of a large three story
brick business building on the corner
of Bridge alley and Merchant street.
With the new Monongahela Bank
building going up on one opposite
corner and nearing completion, 20
pies popular store on another, ana
H. F. Leonard'S furniture store on a
third, only Toms new business build
ing is necessary to complete the
quartet and make that point on Mer-

well, prospecting more and more.
Gilbert Holman, candidate for as'
SCISSOR of the Eastern district, was

he may run well and falter not until
he has reached the goal of his am
biIion.
Messrs. Luther Jacobs, a. o. Rice
and ,Doe) T. H. Hoult are at pres
ent putting down new paved side
walks, and otherwise improving and
identifying l1eir grounds and proper
~ on Guffy street near the Miners
Hospital. Their work has added new
charms 20 the already pleasant place
where they dwell.
We are reliably informed that 1t IS
the intention of the city authorities
to grade off the sidewalks at the
highest points on Merchant street in
order to give property owners an op-
portunity to pave their walks to the
estab44s.,ed grade. This is a wise
move; and will greatly add to the
beauty and symmetry, both OF the
street and properties located thereon.
The work is expected to be begun by
Commissioner Richardson in the near
future-this week possibly
ne street cleaners have been
busy with their hose yesterday and
to-day, washing away the accumula-
lions of dirt and filth from the paved
streets and cutters. which is highly
commendabIe. Nothing adds so much
to the attractiveness, comfort ana
healthfulness OF a city as clean streets'
cutters and sidewalks.
