WORK ON QUINCY STREET.
Work of Tearing Up Pavement Pro

The work of removing the old as
phalt and concrete from the roadway
of Quincy street is progressing rapid
ly, the force of men employed by the
street railway company having reached
as far as the point where the double
track ends in front of the Gartner
store. To remove the concrete the ties
and rails are pried up by means Of
Jacks and the concrete is then removed
by means of hammers.
City workmen are engaged stimuli
taneously with the removal of the as
phalt and concrete, in placing new
service pipes and shut off valves on
Quincy street, and relaying Old water
pipes where they have become rusted,
The latter Is work of considerable
difficulty owing to the fact that the
mains are underneath the conduits laid
in the street for the electric wires. At
the Mesnard street end of the paving
work such progress has been made that
IL is almost i'm readiness for Contractor
Anderson to begin relaying the new
concrete.

AT DEDICATION OF HALL
Expected that Debs or SeideI May Be
Asked To Speak at the Form

pies Home Next Fall.

Work on the new Socialist building,
to be known as the Peoples home. on
Tezcuco street is progressing rapidly

building is to be built three stories i'm
height instead of two as first planned.
and to conform with 1t the building at
the corner of Tezcuco and Franklin
streets, occupied by the Tyomies
printing company will be raised an
other story. The cost of the building
will be between sixteen and eighteen
thousand dollars, exclusive of furnish
ings.
Tentative plans are being considered
for the ceremonies of defeating the
new hall, upon its completion next
fall, and an elaborate program is con-
templated. with speakers of prominence
present TO make the dedicatory adj
dresses. Nothing definite has as yet
been done in this regard as yet, on ac-
count of the uncertainty as to the eX-

cal socialist organization stated today
that some prominent Socialist of ma

invitations will be extended.
