From the end of the upper Palolo

10th avenue, the homesteaders have
at considerable expense, cut wagon
trails, through the guava jungle. This

Of top-dressing which redeemed it
from very bad condition caused by
storms. But no public work has been
done on the homestead trail

The current ex- penses from now until October will not amount to less than s12,500 monthly We cannot hope to receive from past due taxes more than $15,000. You will readily see from this that if we are tc pay cash to city employees from now to- October. it will be necessary for your honorable body to take immediate steps to provide sufficient funds foi this purpose. including the amount nee essary for interest"
 What action the Aldermen took al the meeting last evening has not been made knoWn, though 1t Is understood that steps were taken looking towards the floating of bonds to meet the em- ergency. City Attorney Mcintyre, May or Teague and Treasurer Williams were called to meet with the committee.

Martin. one of the property owners voluntarily offered to give to the city without cost, the right -of- way. so far as it affected his property.
 The importance of this improvement, which has been discussed by the resi- dents of the southern part of the city Tor some time, has been accentuated by the selection of a site for the new Wo- mans College on the Woodley Road. For by extending Hull Street. a beau tiful driveway will be provided for the approach to the new college, and the community which is expected to grow up around it.
 It is pointed out. too, that the ex- tension would give the most beautiful drive in the city. one which would en- compass the southeastern portion of the city. and touch the property. not only of the new college. but that of the Country Club as well.
 The property owners of the southern portion of the city are earnestly at work for the success of the enterprise.
