mel. There are seven lots which are
laid SO as to face the creek bed and
which are in each instance cut by the
creek so as to materially d~epreciate
their value. By cutting the channel
through as proposed and filing in, all
of these lots can be made to assume
their true worth. In addition it will
mean a saving to the city in the long
run. At the present time a hand rail
and fence has to be maintained along
the roadway on the north side to keep
teams from accidentally plunging
down into the bed of the stream.
There are opportunities existing which
may give rise to damage suits at some
future time. A stream which runs
for some distance along a roadway
always presents opportunities for &C
cidents. I don't like to go ahead with
this new location of the bridge, the
contract for which has been let, until
feel assured that no action will be
taken, because I think it is safer,
more economical and viii increase
the value OF the property if the
change in the creek bed is made as
proposed. There is somewhat of a
similar case existing near the corner
of ElmwoOd and Willow avenues
Beth of these changes in h channel
can be made for a few hundred dol
lars and it will result in a profit con-
siderably in excess"

M'CABE WILL WAIT.
New Bridge Won't Be Built Across
Wards Creek Now.

City Engineer McCabe does not
want the new bridge contracted for
placed over Wards creek until the
change of channel of the creek has
been finally settled upon.
The matter came up before the
streets and walks committee last
week and a tie vote resulted. It was
decided to take a visit to the
grounds and make an examination OF
the conditions and report to the u
ell meeting on Friday evening NO
report, however, was made by the COM
mittee to the council, and the matter
is still up in the air.
City Engineer McCabe said today:
81 don't want to go ahead with the
placing of the new bridge across
Wards creek until this matter is
definitely settled by h people down
there. I don't think that they fully
realize what it means to them in the
way of increasing the value of their
property. The recommendation 1
make is the purchase of one uu- lot
straight across from one bend of the
channel to the next- Councilman
Hughes plan called for excavating a
channel in the alley, but this IS I'M
possible on account OF the presence
of the PotWfn sewer. The necessary
lot ear be purchased for S65 and all
the dirt from the excavation can be
utilized in filling up the lots which
are now occupied by the creek cnan-
