Trouble; City Engineer Pro-
tested at the Time But in Vain

The s135,000 paving job of the
Warren Construction company, of
Portland, on West Yakima ave
nue., Turner street Miles avenue,
Linden Lane, Park street, West
Chestnut street Seventh avenue
south and Tacoma avenue was not
accepted by Commissioner of Public
Work W. H. Redman, in report
TO the city commission Saturday, and
the commission on motion of Croker,
seconded by Splawn, then unanimous
~ adopted the report. 1t was order
ed that a copy of the report be sent
to the Warren Construction company
and a certified copy of the motion
to the Massachusetts, Banking and
Insurance company, which signed the
construction company's bond.
Most of Paving Good
In his report Commissioner Red
man finds that the grading and btu
lithic paving, az far as he is able TO
determine by personal examination,
had been completed in compliance
with the plans and specification, en-
cept about fifty feet on Park avenue
along the edge of the concrete gut
ter where the concrete and the bit
ulithic join. there is growth in
dicating the concrete and bitulithie
material have not made good joint,
Otherwise the bitulithic pavement
seems to have complied with the con-
tract. The report goes on to say:

OF the work and find much of il To

powder: also broken in places and
pieces out. and SO broken on at least
one section that it cannot long with
stand meterologic conditions mois-
ture and varying temperatures.
a substantial compliance with the
specified lions in this part OF the work
would have secured at least apass-
ably strong curb, which this is decid-
eddy not, and. therefore, 1 cannot
recommend its acceptance.
Some Work Left Undone
The grading OF that portion Of the
streets between the curb and the side
walk. usually known as the park
strip. is included in the contract. In
most part this has been done, but
along about four blocks on both sides
Of seventh avenue south. most of this
has not been done.
1t appears TO be the intention 10

graded. the same as upon properly

As no part OF the above work can
be accepted and paid for unless all is
accepted. I have 10 recommend that

GlOR|ES OF YAKIMA
SEASON EXT0lLED
October Roses Are Held a FAN
Exchange for Frost Painted
Leaves of East

Wonderful is blossom time, bright
and crisp in her winters, showing
marvels of growth in her summers, to
many Yakima is never so delightful
as in her lingering fails. There isn't
the splendid pageantry of the woods,
as in some of the eastern sections,
where the frost bitten leaves take
on every gorgeous hue of red and yell
low. But fields still green with al
falfa and roses sturdily blooming IN
late October may be looked upon as
a fair exchange.
This year because, perhaps, of the
unusual September rains which kept
hills, pasture lands and gardens from
burning brown as they often do, the
country seems unusually rich in color.
OF the fruit trees, the pears alone are
susceptible to the coloring of the
frost. They have taken on brown
tones. dashed here and there with
scarlet or clear yellow. The represent
tative OF the maple family most COM
mon here, the box elder is not one
given to much originality in fall dress
The sumach and the willows, with
their red and yellow stems, and some
of the shrub growth along the rivers
and streams. give most Of the bright
color to a Landscape in which the pre-
dominating note is still green.
Fine Home Grounds
Never have individual yards and
lawns looked more lovely than this
season. The attractiveness of the res
idence districts has been greatly en-
HANGED by the general effort 10 i'm
prove home grounds in which every
one has taken part People who
planted SALIVA now have their reward.
Dozens Of homes have bright front
now in the scarlet-h headed spikes.
The Yakima season is long enough
to permit the cosmos TO bloom, and
, in pink and white delicacy it is now
TO be seen on every side.

NEW YORK. Oct. 2o.-The dis
