OPEN NEW HIGHWAY.
Commissioners Consider New Ex.en
sion to South Third ST.

The board of county commissioners
adjourned at noon yesterday after a
laborious and diligent session of sew
eral days duration.
One of the most important road
cases to be brought to the attention
of the board during the recent session
was the matter of opening a new road
which is proposed to connect with the
road running past the cemetery with
the southeast extension of Third street.
Though no definite decision was
reached by the commissioners,
the opening of this proposed road will
be of unusual Importance for reason
that it would place considerable valu-
able land in direct connection with a
public highway. The point where the
proposed road will connect with Third
street is about mile and a half south
of the city limits. At present there are
large tracts of land already plated,
which will, providing the road is ex-
tended, be placed on the market as de-
sirable residence properties.
