the yards after the laying Of the street car
line. The first ground for the pavement
v as broken yesterday morning. The Ma
tional Construction company has the con-
tract. Sarco paving OF asphaltic concrete
is to be used The paving is greatly needed
in the yards at this point for the travel
is heavy and in rain this street becomes
q sea OF mud which is often impossible.
The work will be done rapidly, for the
company has a big outfit.

cattle pens has progressed at a great rate,
SO that the yards present a aspect OF
cleanliness and thrift. These pens are
paved with cement, which is said to be
far better than brick. The stock will not
slip on the cement finish while on brick
paving many cattle are crippled annually.

Of the paving Of Thfrty-third street. which
comprises a section from l. TO N streets.
The car line through the stock yards has
been completed to Thirty-third street and
will soon be in working order. The wire
gang is at work putting up the permanent
trolley wires. 1t will require about two
and l. streets.
