PUBLIC OPINION.
Editor EVENING NEWS:

IsNllNOl - 49,
In a recent editorial in your paper
YOU said that State street ''must be
paved, and that the people of Perth
Amboy want it. Al right, if the
people of Perth Amboy want it they
are, no doubt, willing to pay for it.
BY the way, are you aware of the fact
that this street has been already paved
mt an expense to the people owning
property thereon of nine dollars per
lineal foot, the city at large paying
one-third of that sum? Are you aware
of the fact that had that part that
street which is paved been properly
taken care of it would not only not
need any ~repaving now, but would be
one of the best streets we have? Are
YOU aware of the fact that this has
never been done. which could be at a
trivial expense to the public at large?
Are you aware of the fact that the
petition which has been circulated ask
ing for the repaving of hat street and
been presented to the city council for
their approval is signed by quite a
number of names who don't W any
property on that street, and who are
therefore irresponsible? Finally, are
Won aware of the fact that the people
owning real estate on that or any
other street in the city are not pluto
Gratis and therefore have not money to
throw away for experimenting on
asphalt or any composition fol-
street paving purposes.
II maintain land any practical and
disinterested person will agree with
mel that all our macadam paved
streets could be put, even at this late
day, in a first class condition at a
small cost. and maintained so for years
to come at a tritling outlay, and by
placing experienced men in hal de-
partment who will give their persona
attention to every detail of the duties
of which the people pay them. We
are getting 4 little tired of paying
pensions to incapable political heelers
The advocacy of the NEWS of the
paving of State street with asphalt il
rather significant, and there are peo'
pie who take mental notes.

Personal Statistics.

It is a curious fact that a boys hair
grows one-half slower than a girls. In
Bows the average rate of growth is three
feet three inches in six years, being an
average of is inch per day. During the
twenty-irst and twenty-fourth years a
mans hair grows quicker than at any
other period. 1t takes an eyelash 20
weeks to reach a length of .429 inch,
and then its life is from 100 TO $50 days.
BY means of a Gamers the wink of an
eyelid has been measured, and it was
found that 20 winks can be made in four
