IMPROVEMENTS WARD ONE.
Alderman Baxter Looking to the In
terests His Ward--Good Work
On Bridge Near Railroad.

Alderman p. Il. Baxter, Of ward l.,
has done some excellent work in the
repairing and rebuilding Of the bridge
across Scott's Creek near the rail
road. The bridge is now 80 feet long
and has been raised and placed upon
rock abutments. The bridge has been
shortened some sixteen feet on one
side and thirty-two on the other and
the street filled in. The branch,
which went down from Hairs barber
shop has been changed and made to
cross the street and empty into the
creek above the bridge. This is an
excellent piece of work that has been
done by Alderman Baxter, and in
stead of taking about 10000 feet of
lumber for the bridge, as heretofore,
it will take only about 5000 feet
now, which is considerable saving
in itself.

AS TO STREETS.
Court House Street Should Not be
Wagon Way-Corner Court House.
Site to be Given to Straight
en- Street.

The new street, which it is propos-
Ell to open by the Hotel Frederick
and between it and the court house
lot comes into Thompson street just
in front of Mr.. j. G. Browns stables.
The extension Of this street through
the property up to the Presbyterian
church will begin in Thompson street
| some 80 feet north Of Mr.. Brown IS
stables and about G5 feet from the
corner of Harrington street. The
street is proposed to be so feet
street, and it is understood that the
court house commission will cut off
the corner of tie court house lot on
Thompson street and Harrington
street so as to make this new street
run straight into Harrington street.
This will throw the street very much
nearer to the court house, and if the
new street between the court house
lot and the Frederick Hotel is made
for the use Of wagons and buggies, we
will then again have the court house
in public square and surrounded
by streets.
As matter of fact the street
which it is proposed to open between
the Frederick Hotel and the court
house dot should simply be a walk
way and not open for wagons and
bu~goics at ALL The distance from
it to Harrington street is so short,
and as it does not run directly into
the new street. which it Is proposed
to open. there can be little advantage
in having it made wagon road. IF
it should be made so as to be used by
wagons. the noise will be about as an
noying as it is at the present location
of the court house. To make it a
nice walk for pedestrians would be
much better than to open it as regu-
lar driveway.
