 since anything was done to this walk and public opinion is that il should be fixed as soon as possible. It is in such [ q condition as to be of harmful na- ! ture to the business men of that street as we'll as the general public that are
 obliged to use it. which they have to or else come down Prospect street, | where there is no walk at alL There | are improvements. being made in Un- i ion City and elsewhere at the present time and it would be almost an act
 of charity to fix these walks.
