THE SURVEYS ALL COMPLETED
Work Begins Very Sho thy on Electric
Railway.

Dirt is to be broken in few days
now upon the Macon-Atlanta section
of the interurban electric railway,
which will be continuation of the
line from Albany and Americas to
Macon, and for which survey is now
being rapidly completed. At meet
ing of directors held day or two ago
a report was made showing the road to
be in fine shape and indicated that
actual work of construction will be
started not later than April /, if not
sooner. 1t was reported that the sur
veys for the new line between Atlanta
and Macon had been completed. TIE
length will be considerably shorter than
the present steam route between the
two cities. The average grade will be
but per cent, which is very low for
an electric road. Standard gauge track,
with very heavy rails. will be used.
The actual work of construction is be-
ing held only while few franchises
and rights of way are secured. These,
it is believed, will be ready in a few
weeks, as no opposition of any sort is
being put forward by those who live
between the two cities against the en-
terprise.

Cotton Avenue VIII Be Laid With

Americas is going to continue the
work of street improvement this year,
and will inaugurate this progressive
step by paving Cotton avenue from
Lamar to Central depot with vitrifed
brick. Some time since the city coun-
ell took steps to this end, practically
all property owners giving assent and
bearing their proportion of-the cost,
and it is understood that the work of
improvement will soon be inaugurated.
The city, it is understood, is to bear
two thirds the cost of laying the street
with paving brick of best quality, the
property owners bearing one-third the
cost. Cotton avenue is one of the most
important business streets in Americas
and the paving inaugurated there will
in time be extended, it is hoped, until
all streets IN the business center of the
city are similarly improved.

WHY SEATS WERE NOT FILLED
Many Checked That Were Never
Called For.

Some comment was made Yesterday
upon the fact that a large number of
the parquet seats for the Parsifal per-
formance were not occupied when it
was known that practically every seat
had been checked at the box Office well
ahead of the date of the company's ap-
pearance here. And therein Law the
secret of the unoccupied seats, as since
developed. Parties called at the box
office and checked large numbers OF
seats, the tickets to be called for later.
But the tickets were not called for, and
thus loss was sustained, while people
who otherwise might have taken these
unused seats were put to the necessity
OF getting less favored ones or doing
without. The diagram of the house,
long before the show, indicated the sale
OF these seats, hence the reasonable
supposition of full house.
