BRIDGE ICE COATED

The Main street bridge was so slip
perry early this morning that it was
almost impossible for horses to cross
without falling. The whole floor of
the bridge was a mass of ice of the
very smoothest variety. Several hors-
es, which had not been rough shod.
received severe falls on the structure
but fortunately no bones were broken.
The street commissioner on learning
of the dangerous condition of the
bridge ordered several wagon loads
of cinders distributed over the struc-
ture.

Dunn Heirs Demand Larger
Damages by Widening of
Center Street.
LITIGATION MAY RESULT
CITY OFFERED A COMPROMISE
TO-DAY, BUT IT is NOT PRoeA-
BILE THAT THIS OFFER WILL BE
ACCEPTABLE ONE.

At the meeting of the board of
works this morning the final hearing
fo- the widening of Center street in
West Richmond was held. The board
has bad considerable difficulty with
the Improvement of this street I he
Dunn heirs allese that by the WIDEN
ing Of the street their property is
damaged to the extent of several hun
drcd dollars. Some time ago TIE
board granted s2l6 benefit but it was
asserted by the heirs to the estate
that this was not satisfactory and they
demanded $500 more. This morning
the board granted them S10O more
benefit but it is not thought that this
will settle the matter. which will
probably be carried o court before a
satisfactory agreement can be reach
ed. The Dunn heirs allege that a
well has been destroyed and cistern
damaged by the improvement.
The street will be widened 30 feet
The improvement is a badly needed
one, it is said as Center street Is rap
idly becoming one of the most prom
inent thoroughfares on the west side
The board at its meeting this morn
ing also made $500 payment on the
new west side hose house. which il

the structure is being pushed with al
possible haste and will probably be
finished by spring, it is said. The
foundation has been laid and work ha.
commenced on the erection of the
walls.
