Widening of West Fifth Street
Occupies the Attention
OF the Board.
STREETS ARE INSPECTED
AFTER EXAMINATION REPORTS
MADE TO eoARo RECOMMEND
ING WIDENING OF OTHER WEST
SIDE STREETS.

Assessment rolls of benefits and
damages which will be incurred in the
widening of West Fifth street were
considered at a meeting of the board
of works this morning. However, no
definite action was taken tho rolls be-
ing laid over until the next meeting.
The street will be improved from Ma
tional avenue to the Pennsylvania
railroad. 1t is now a narrow street
and the necessity of it's widening is in
creased by a street car line. 1t Is d
sixty foot street. Damage to property
owners will not be great and most Of
them favor the improvement.
City Engineer Fred Charles and
President Hammond of the board of
works made an inspection of West
Seventh, Eighth and Ninth streets yes
terday and recommended at this morn
ing's meeting that these streets also
be widened. 1t was decided to make
them fifty foot streets. Engineer
Charles was ordered to draw up reso-
buttons for the widening of the streets
Immediately. The improvement is
considered necessary because Of the
building boom on the West Side.
Obstruction Of Streets.
Another matter of Importance dis
| cCssed was the obstruction OF the
streets and sidewalks of the city witt
empty store boxes. trash boxes anC
hitching racks. Mayor Zimmerman
declared there should b. no regular
hitching racks within square of MAR
street. At Fourth and Main street!
there is being much Inconvenience
caused because of hitching on tn
east side and the band concert plat
form on the west side. 1t is consi i
cred dangerous by the board, as i
makes the street very narrow. TIL
board will probably order the concer
platform removed, excepting on SAT
Irday night.
large number of empty boxes ar
piled on South Sixth street near Main
which greatly impedes traffic. TIL
boxes will be ordered removed by tn
board
Elm place has been kept in such
filthy condition that the board has OF
dered the property owners to clean
up. A cement side walk, which vii
be built on the north side OF Elr
Place soon, will greatly improve tn
street.
Primary assessment rolls Of &C
ment sidewalk on the west side 4
South Fifteenth street from South
to South e streets was approved b
the board. Also the final assessmen
roll of sewer in the vicinity of Sout
Second and B streets YVES approved.

New York, latin Quarter.

Metropolitan Magazine: Turning
north from Washington square, up
Macdougal stree, you come upon d
little alley leading back behind the
houses that face on the north side of
the square. A sign says this is Mac
dougal alley. Really it is The Alley.
1t is the closest approach, perhaps, 20
Latin quarter in New York. 1t Is
in external aspect and in it's spirit
unique. 1t is devoted entirely to horses,
black cats and fine arts. The Alley
once upon a time was entirely lined
with little stables, where the Wash
ington square aristocrats kept their
horses. 1t still appears to be lines with
stables. But if you look closer you
observe that most of them have studio
lights, and shades at the upper win
dows. If you look still closer, at the
plates on the tiny entrance doors, you
will read the names of artists known
over the entire country.
The first studio in The Alley Is in
habited by James Fraser, a former
pupil of Saint Gaudens, who has a
second studio farther along, where
Workmen point up" his clay models
in marble. The next stable is the
home Of Edwin w. Deming, who can
talk with any Indian in his own dia-
lect, and who paints Indian scenes
and legends with the grace and charm
