NOT OF REQUIRED THICKNESS
Grant Petition of Mayer to Build a
Public Natatorium at Foot of
Seventeenth Street.

Til, investigation of the curbing
placed on Sixteenth street for the pave
ment between Tenth and Twelfth av-
enues by the city council, revealed that
the complaint filed by the property
owners in this particular was well
founded, and as a result the council or
dered the T. j. Peters company to re
move and replace the work that does
not meet the specifications. The de-
fective curb is between Tenth and
Eleventh avenues, and for about 260
feet the curb on the lower level ranges
between 31a and 6 inches in depth,
while the specifications require inch
es. On the raised portion of the curb
where a thickness of IL inches is re
CURED the thickness ranged between
and - inches. In other particulars
the work seemed to be up 10 the stand

|. The council met at o'clock, and
took a recess TO investigate the Six
teenth and Nineteenth street. and the
Fifth avenue improvements. At Six
teenth street the mayor and some of
the aldermen relieved themselves of
their coats. and with picks made thor
ough examination of the work. On re-
turning to the council room. the alder
men by resolution. ordered the curbing
to be replaced. The intersection at
Nineteenth street and Fifth avenue
was ordered relaid with brick, and q
catch basin installed. No action was
taken in regard to the Nineteenth
street Improvement, against which
there has been some protest.
Natntorium Project Carries.
Before reassembling. the aldermen
went to the river bank for the purpose
of examining the location of the nata-
torium proposed by Mayor McCaskrin.
The railway employees and those on
the levee. on first seeing the officials,
became alarmed. thinking that the
mayor was about TO tear up the tracks
again. Their fears were quickly dis
PEELED. The petition of the mayor for
permission 70 erect a public natatori-
um west of the west line of Seven
teenth street was granted. the council
reserving the right to order the remov-
al of the building should it at any time
interfere with boat traffic The pro-
posed natatorium will be in the shape
of a barge, and is to be completed by
the middle of September. 1t will be
built by subscriptions which the
mayor will secure personally. Such an
institution should prove of much pub
lie benefit.
