CONTRACT LET FOR
MILES OF PAVING
One of Biggest Sidewalk Pro-
iectS Will Be That of
LongvieW Park.

One OF the biggest sidewalk paving
contracts let in a long time was that
which was closed yesterday by y. NJ.
Long with Charles b. Wood for two
miles of walks in Longview park, the
new residence district recently opeled
on State and Fourteenth South streets.
The work will be begun on the paving
tomorrow. and will be hurried along to
completion as rapidly as possible.
With this work and the other improve
ments which are going on the addition
will present a lively scene.
The sidewalks are to be laid on the
long frontage OF the addition on state
street at the foot of the rows of trees,
and along the half dozen new streets
which have been graded throughout
the addition The walks will go on
each side Of the roadway in front of
every lot in the addition. and will be
thrown in with each lot. The paving
will be laid with just as much care in
the outer parts of the addition as along
State street
Mr.. Long, who is manager Of N NJ
Long & Co, reports that the property
is going at q most encouraging rate.
Nearly half of the addition has been
sold out, and a great many other lots
have been contracted for, but the final
payments have not been made With
the laying Of pavements the addition
will be given q fresh life in the i'm
provement line, which promises to be
the cause of a great number of new
homes being built. Purchasers of lots
recently, including Charles Burton.
cashier OF the State Bank of Utah, and
several other prominent business men,
are planning homes. Everything is on
the addition TO make it possible for
them TO go ahead
In some parts of the real estate
field 1t is not possible to build houses
at the present time, because of the
lack of water, and the fact that there
is no street car service, electric serv-
ice or other conveniences. In Long
view, however, Mr.. Long says every
thing is ready to begin work Water
Is in all parts Of the addition The
State street cars pass the addition, and
there are several houses on and near
the tract which are equipped with |
electric lights and telephone

ton Company Is Ready
to Begin Work.

Active operations on the project OF
the Beaver Land, Power & Irrigation
company, near Milford. viii be started
within few days, according to reports
just given out at the offices of the
company. George L. Swendson chief
engineer for Slick Bros. company, and
w. B. Slick, head of the concern, left
Friday night for a trip over the
ground, and will spend a few days de-
Gliding on the manner in which the
work viii be undertaken.
The project will include the build
ing of two dams and the construction
of about 100 miles of bitches, of which
thirty miles will be main Canals. Wa

The water to be use1 for irrigating
purposes will be taken from the Bea-
yer river. The watershed IS said to be
the best in the state, a portion Of the
drainage system being on the west side
of Mt Badly. The larger portion of
the water system is 1900 feet high,
and is included within the forest 1e-
serve.

ADDITION

Gently Laid Out Being I'M

BUILDING is RESTRICTED
NO HOMES COSTING LESS THAN
$1,000 WILL BE PERMITTED.

On the brow of the east bench. i'm
mediately south OF Tenth South
street, and adjoining the thickIy pop
| ulated section of the city near Thir-
teenth East, Is located one of the
| prettlest of the new additions which
has been laid out in the city. A sec
ton of about forty-five acres has been
secured and is being given attention
similar TO that which has made Fed
eral Heights so choice a residence
section. Liberty Heights, as the ad-
dition is called. seems destined to be-
come one of the high-class residence
districts
The tract lies between Thirteenth
East and Fifteenth East, and extends
from Tenth South a distance of about
four blocks. The ground is nearly
level, but has a natural slope to the
eastward sufficient to provide excel
lent drainage. The view of the val
ley is unexcelled. One can see the
yet the tract is far removed from
smoke. A wonderful view of the Wa
satch range can also be obtained, and
there is a constantly blowing breeze
from the canyons, so that the place
is never unduly warm in summer and
has none of the dampness found in
the lower levels in winter
A special feature OF the improve
ments is the curbing and guttering of
all the streets, in addition TO the plac-
ing OF sidewalks and shade trees.
Nearly 10 men and twenty teams are
now at work grading the streets and
laying sidewalks. Thirteenth East
street is being graded also, and this
street will be curbed and guttered
along the Liberty Heights property.
The property adjoins a number of adj
ditiOns which are already improved,
so that the place does not appear isO-
lated
The building restrictions have been
placed at $2.500, and a special effort
is being made to sell building lots to
purchasers who will erect houses in
the near future. Among those who
have already made arrangements TO
build are Marion Q. Ashton, who has
already broken ground; Mr.. Grew,
who will start work on a residence in
a week or two; Joseph ]. Kjer and
Walter Lewis Many others have
plans for new homes under conSid- ]
Grafton. Most of the lots are SOLD for
cash or with large sum paid as the |
first payment. although very liberal
terms are made for purchasers with /
moderate incomes.
The preference is given to those |
who wish to build homes at once,
rather than TO investors. II Will be a 4
number OF months before the place is i
entirely laid out, but work is pro- 1
crossing rapidly, and the place al I
'eady shows something of how it will 1
appear when the improvements are /
finished

Chattanooga is the Mecca for the
black man, so far as commerce is con
cerned. The Negro has more bust
ness and better business than any
other town in the state can boast.
They are proverbial for their polite
ness and hearty handsnake.
The colored rae in Chattanooga, in
many instances, merit the confidence
of the better class of citizens, and
have been instrumental much for their
own advancement.
Many OF the colored men have
earned and saved enough money from
their employment in factories here
to erect homes which are kept in good
order. Some of the prettiest and
We kept w in his city belong to
these colored people.
In religious circles they have done
good work, the co.ored Y. M. G. A., on
A street, being an example of their
progressiveness. The colored church
es are ornamental and in harmony
with their surroundings.
In keeping down disturbances the
colored educators and ministers have
combined with the authorities of the
law.
Many of the better class of colored
men here are engaged in business OF
their own, catering to members of
their race and have generally been
successful.
Real estate dealers report that they
have made many sales of property to
cOlored men, and if sod on the in
stallment plan their payments are gen
orally good. In other lines of business
colored men are trusted for goodly
amounts.
Probably no other southern city has
as few Negro loafers as Chattanooga,
as they are offered employment in
many factories and public works. Col
ored lodges flourish both in city and
suburbs, and the death of a we'll.

appropriate burial.

criminal. His reputation as a dental

some very delicate work that required
much thought and attention. No un-
