It occurred to Alden all at once that

in police court in 1904. In October 7l2
prisoners were arraigned, haking it the
heaviest month since the municipal
court was instituted
More than hundred persons We're

BOULEVARD PLAN
GETS ASET.BACK
MINNEHAHA DRIVEWAY MAY
NOT BE WIDENED.
Park Board Finds that Land Desired
Will Cost $11,620-This Is More
Than Was Expected and More Than
Board Feels 1t Can Afford to Pay.

1t is feared that the park board will
not be able to realize a long cherished
plan of widening the Minnehaha boule-
ward between Lyndale and Portland
avenues.
Since this parkway was laid out and
opened as drive, it has been apparent
that not enough land was secured on
the north side of Minnehaha creek
to obtain the scenic attractiveness so
essential to drive of this character,
and the park board has had constantly
in view the purpose Of charging it's ter
ritory in this part of the drive. There
are several groves of fine large trees
which are particularly coveted and some
pretty hillsides and low meadows along
the creek that could be made very at
tractive, but if left to care for them
selves may become quite unsightly.
The movement to widen the boule-
ward took definite form this year when
commission was selected to appraise
the value of the land wanted. This in
cluded strip from a few feet to over
hundred feet in some places along
the north side of the boulevard and ex-
tending from Lyndale avenue to Port
land avenue, a distance Of more than
mile.
The commission reported yesterday,
and the report proved to be something
OF a SURPRISE. mere are tuA1 Cy -I"O
separate awards ranging from $40 to
$5 1000, and they aggregate $11 $50. This
is great deal more than the park
board had expected to pay, and is more
than it can afford, as the park commits
sioners did not contemplate assessing
the cost of the additional land on the
property supposed to be benefited, but
had intended to obtain the money from
the regular park appropriation.
| AS the board has always been hamp
cred for lack of funds for maintenance
and the clamor for improvements from
various parts Of the city is incessant
the commissioners do not feel justified
in paying out nearly $4,000 in one 10
for acquiring a strip Of land. 1t will
enhance the beauty of the driveway
and everyone is anxious to have tn
strip, but the price seems to be too high
The biggest item is for the land and i'm
provements included in the washbur!
pumping station. :,
tt is not believed that the board vii
confirm the report of the appraisers.
