COST
 OF SOUTH SIDE
 WIDENING S49,58O

The board of aldermen learned last night that the estimated cost Of widen ing Congress street on the south side is $49.58 and it took steps at once to learn the cost of widening on the north side according to the plans sub mltted by the Congress street bridge commission
 It is expected that the figures will be available next week and the alder men will be able to compare the cost of widening on both sides.
 The Board of Appraisal has already reported that the cost of widening on avenue and Main street, but in order to comply with the recommendations of the Bridge Commissions plan the cost of the land of the United Illumin- ating Co.,, east of Housatonic avenue and of removing the stone pier of the railroad, will have to be added to the appraisal on the original layout.
 President McMurray said after hear ing the estimate of 49,580, for the talk ing of twelve feet from the south side said that it was quite clear that to lines of the map submitted by the bridge commission, was going to cost between $55, 900 and $56, 600.
 The estimate of the cost of widening on the south side was furnished by special committee composed of the members of the Board of Appraisal of Benefits and Damages. The $49, ,580 is a computation of the total cost of widening Congress street 12 feet on the South side, paying S. z. PoH and To- gan Bros, for their land and provides for the cost of cutting 12 feet from the building occupied by Logan Bros. and the addition of two stories to their building, thereby giving them much room for store purposes as they now enjoy and just compensation for the interruption of their business.
 The figures given were exclusive of any special benefits that might be giv- en-. The same committee also gave an estimate that it would cost $5.000 to remove the pier supporting the ele- vated tracks which stands in the way of the north side widening providing, however, that proper arrangements can be made with the railroad com pany for the regulation of trains run over the elevated tracks
 On the acceptance of. the special committees report the report of the aldermanic street committee favoring the widening. on the north side from Main street to the East approach of the new bridge, was taken from the table and it's recommendation that it be referred to the Board of Appraisal of Benefit and Damages. was adopted.
 As soon that the aldermen learn the total cost of widening on both sides they will be able to determine wAich side is the cheapest and then the con- test over which side shall be widened will be started anew.

A substantial new bridge at Black

Ter Mrs Phelps and that no

rrived here from Greensboro

had no intimation or warning OF
what was to take place, she was
shocked at the news of her hus-

said, She intended to have no
further communication with him,

her husband lay ill and friendless

who had displaced his lawful wife,
her womanly instinct told her that
her place was at his side, since in
her marriage vows she had solemn

and cleave unto him." Mrs Phelps
produced undoubted evidence that
she and Mr. Phelps had been legally
married in Forsythe county, Ga,
twelve years ago. She is refined,
