PUZZLE is UP TO JURY

NEW YORK, Nov. 30.-When the
jurors in the case of Mrs. Ellen
Moore Roskilly against the American
Fire Insurance Company, of Newark,
N. j., arose from their seal they
were certain that the paintings for
which the plaintiff is ~endeavoring to
collect $1S,60 insurance were either
the actual works of old masters or
were cheap limitations. Art experts
had Wed with each other in assert
ing both extremes.
William q. Pilgrim. an art ap-
praiser, of POI West 10Sth street, said
he had found a real Da Vinci, a Dore,
a Greuze, a Turner and a Reubens
in Mrs. Roskilly's collection when he
appraised it at Mamaroneck, n. Y.
He contradicted the testimony of
Miss Grace Edith Barnes, executrix
Of the estate of John La Fargo.

A plan for the coming season for street improvement Is outlined in the annual report of Director Courtade. and a full detailed financial report, showing the expenditures of the fiscal year ended April l. is also given. Di-
 rector Courtade proposes that the
 street improvement begin in the cen-
 ter of the city and proceed outward iy putting the streets in good condi-
 ton as rapidly as circumstances will
 permit taking the main arteries of travel first, and then other streets to such an extent as the available ap- propriation for the work will per Some bftuminous macadam will be placed on residential streets. Many of the streets will be sprinkled with
 oil instead Of water as soon as wealth CT conditions will warrant the use of oil for the purpose, in accordance with the expressed wishes of the property owners and the directions of the Street
 committee of the Common Council.
 The State highways in our city will be put in good condition and kept so by the State highway commissioner acting in concert with this depart n@ent. Tt will be my aim to do all work as thoroughly as possible and at the same time as economically as will be
 consistent with the performance of
 good work and to get the best results
 for the money expended"
