City Engineer Atkinson Dis
CusseS This Subject as a
Most Essential Part Of
Beautifying the City
CITY ENGINEER ATKINSON DIS
CusSEs THIS SUBJECT AS MOST
ESSENTIAL PART OF BEAUTE
FLYING THE CITY.

The discussion of the subject of
civic improvement and identifying the
city by the Commercial club seems
to have become contagious and on ev-
cry side is heard remarks regarding
a general movement looking to ac-
tive steps for making the city more
beautiful than ever.
While Mr. Atkinson has plans in
mind for a general park scheme for
the city which he thinks can be work
ed out at small expense as the years
roll by, he thinks the foundation for
any plan which may be adopted for
city Improvement lies in boulevard
ing the streets. Asked as to his ideas
on this subject he said:
II am heartily in favor of much
narrower roadway in our residence
districts than we are now using. Our
residence streets are eighty feet wide
and the ordinance defining the curb
line makes it twelve feet from the
street line, thus we now have a road
way of fifty-six feet. For these
streets width of thirty feet between
curbs is sufficient. Many cities in
this country having population far
beyond ours, are making their road
ways in resident districts as narrow
as twenty-four feet. With a roadway
thirty feet wide the distance between
the street line and the curb would be
twenty-five feet, six feet of this would
be taken up by the sidewalk nd the
remaining nineteen feet erased over
and planted to trees making delight
full boulevards.
Looking at this matter of narrow
roadWays from a financial point of
view alone, what are the benefits to
be derived from thir., foot road.
way?
!. First. We have nearly one-half
the number of square yards Of streets
to keep clean and in repair. Sec.
ond. We have half the area to sprin.
kle.
Third. The amount Of drainage
to be taken away will be reduced.
All these mean lower taxes.
Fourth. We will have one half
the dust.
Fifth. The value of the abutting
property will be greatly increased,
and also the outlying property.
Aside from these pecuniary bene-
fits we will have more comfortable
homes, more pleasant drives and these
things all tend towards the moral up.
lifting of our citizens.
Our appropriations for street work
for the years 19O3-1907 inclusive were
as follows:
"In 1903, $4,000; 1904, $4,000; 1905,
$4,000; 1906, $500; 1907, $4,000. Had
this money been expended on one
half the number of square yards, what
better looking streets we would now
have!
In reducing our streets to thir-
ty-foot roadway it would be neces-
sary to construct concrete curb and
gutter. Whenever the time comes to
pave we have the curb and the gutter
in place and the cost of paving will
be reduced, but with a thirty-foot
roadway properly constructed and
properly cared for afterwards the
date of paving in this city will ne
postponed for many years.

While hanging to a strap;

Three of them seemed to lap.
Then 1, man, rushed to the street,
My face scratched like cats
I prayed that no more might meet
Those Merry Widow hats!
'Twas in church / saw them next
They had the foremost pew
I quite forgot the preachers text,
So dazzled was my view.
In prayer again bowed my head
Alas! as I arose
A big one, spreading just ahead,
Abruptly gouged my nose.
'Twas in an elevator now
I ran across my foe;
Too bad that was not a cow
Upon all fours to go!
Three women entered-each one tried
To raise her headgear high,
And though aloud for help cried,
The things dug out an eye.

Gen. S. ,. Lee Died After LONG
Illness,

Vicksburg, Miss, May 28.-General
Stephen D. Lee, the last surviving
lieutenant general of the Confederate
army, died this morning at his home
here after an illness of seven weeks.
Gen. Lee was cCmmander-in-chief
of the United Confederate Veterans,
and was the most popular of all the
old Confederate officers of the South.
Since the war he had been giving eli
his time to the upbuilding of the state.
He was president of the State Agri-
cultural and Industrial college, and
also had large planting interests in
the state.
His interesting personality had
made for him warm friends all over
the nation. A favorite saying with
him was that no soldier of the Lost
Cause, which Gen. Lee always be-
lieved to be right, need ever hang his
head with shame. "The keeping
alive of old Confederate soldiers" he
said just few hours before his death,
"is trust that should be sacred to
the sons of veterans"
