 tensive as Usual.

The people in East Grand avenue and vicinity are much excited over the speeding of autos up Moody's hill which of late has become a great nuisance and dangerous to pedes- trians. On Saturday an auto was speeded up the hill five times, the machine just barely escaping striking . little girl on one trip After the first grade Is made there Is a descent and persons in that locality can't see machine until 1t is right on them
 This was the case of the girl who came so near being run over. An other machine was speeded there yesterday, The numbers of both ma chimes were taken and complaint made to the city attorney. One citi- zen In speaking of this matter, last evening said. T understand that au- tos have been ruled off other hills in the city for speeding and so they come over here; but it will have to be stopped here where the citizens have submitted to the danger and the trouble too long already. I under stand that some of the machines are tried with view ot making sales and they are brough over here and speeded for all there Is in them.

II Is a wonder people have not been killed out here, and 1t seems nothing short of a miracle that they have not been, for tho. way that autos are raced through East Grand and ouinnipiac avenues is enough to make ones hair stand on end or course 1t has got to be stopped and the complaint made to-day at the city attorneys office ought to be the first chapter in winding up the nuisance What is needed Is day policeman over here but suppose we'll not get that until we join the city. And for my part. think it Is about time that we did join. We need day police A community as large as the borough ought to have police protection by day. But you can say in your paper that we are going to stop the auto racing We don't mind autos using our streets at proper speed, but the racing business will have to be cut out"
