What is done Ear not be remedied
at present In the buildings without
working an injustice, but as dwell
ings and business places are being
erected each year, why not have an
ordinance passed making q builder
locate the building at q uniform dis
lance from the sidewalk? In other
cities we see buildings erected on an
established line, thus adding beauty
to the place. while in our city on
many of the principal streets some
buildings are flush with the side
walk, others have their display win
dows en~croaching, while others re-
cede several feet from the sidewalk.
Now to have those changed would
work injury, but to have an estab-
iished line by ordinance for the
guidance of future builders would
work injury to no one.
We would be pleased to call atten-
ton to the grade and curbing of our
sidewalks. Take for instance Broad
way. There 10 not much uniformity
on the whole street In the curbing
and grading of the sidewalk, almost
everyone suiting his own particular
within. Between Independence En-
CINE house to Augusta street there
are three different widths of side
walk in about one hundred feet. Az
to grading from this same point to
Henry street, give n a perambula-
tor and blindfold him and it would
not take q great stretch of his imagi-
nation to experience the sensation of
being on the briny deep.
We respectfully call attention to
these matters as the spring is OPEN
ing that they may be remedied as far
as possible and thus give our city a
heater appearance,

MATTERS AT
SOUTH AMBOY
Changes Suggested to Giss
City Nsater Appearance.
-,s,ser to sas EVENING Sxws.

South Amboy, March 14:-Some-
thing over two years 8 the govern
ment of this place was changed from
a borough to a city form. The argu-
ment put forward at that time In
favor of the city form of government
was the greater facilities rendered
for the improvement of the city I'M
der such representations. The mat
ter was submitted to a vote of the
people and South Amboy became a
third class city.
Since that time ordinances have
been passed regulating different
matters of which at this time we are
not inclined to criticise but the only
one that has been passed SO far CIV
ing US greater relief along the i'm
provement line ia the n establish
ing the sewer system. AS we have
waited patiently and we are not
voicing our sentiments Individually
but of many of our citizens, we
think that 1t is about time that an
ordinance was enacted whereby. by
uniformity. our city may be beauti-
fed without any cost to the city.

RIVAL MANAGER SAID STAGE
WAS SET FOR FINE START.
Other Clubs Received No information
Concerning the Change.

Philadelphia, June 17.--That the
stage was all set this spring TOR
swell start by the Philadelphia Attn
letics, and that this club was the first
ana, FOR a time. the only club To know
of the Introduction of an increased
amount Of rubber in the American
League ball, is the charge made by an
American League manager the head
of one of the eastern teams.
1t is a charge the authenticity Of
which is virtually admitted by mem
Der of the Athletics as well.
The increase in resiliency of the
league ball was a surprise To practi-
cally every American league owner eX-
cept the Athletics, Ban Johnson fail
ing to take them into his confidence
when the change was authorized. The
first President Navin knew of the
change was through a story printed
In newspaper, though by observation
he already suspected that change
had been made.
That the Athletics were i'm such poor
condition that they were unable to
take advantage of their advance know
ledge proved the salvation. In all pro-
liability, in the American league race.
