BETTER STREETS
NOW LOOKED FOR

Leading members of council declared
today that the changes in the city con .
struction department provided by coun-
ell yesterday afternoon would mean a
marked Improvement in street and sew
er work next year
r. NJ, Clayton the head Of the de-
partment, said that he was satisfied
with the action OF council and expected
improvement in his department.
Councilman Harvey Hatcher started
a stout defense Of the department in
opposition. to the reform measures yes
terday afternoon, but practically aban-
doned the tight before the special COM
rnittee on reorganization, whose report
Chairman Chatles W. Smith was pre-
senting. had been completed.
During one OF his speeches Council
man Albert Thomson interrupted him
with the remark:
Il think Councilman Hatcher is the
only man in Atlanta who does not want
to see the work OF the construction de-
partment done little better"
Besides providing for more strict
specifications for contractors the new
ordinance requires all public utility
corporations to prepare for street i'm
provements by such times as the chief
Of construction shall specify. The pro-
vision is intended to prevent such de-
lays as occurred in the Peachtree and
Marietta streets work.
An arrangement is to be made with
the trolley company to transport con-
MI
instead Of by wagons This will save a
great deal OF time and money
All appointments of inspectors in the
department must be approved by the
streets committee.

.RECORD|NCREASE
Of APART MENTS

Contracts already made between real
estate firms and house builders and
citizens indicate that in the year 1912
there will be an increase of ten per
cent in the number of Atlanta people
living in apartment houses. There are
at present nearly 100 apartments worth
approximately 100000, including the
sites, and capable of accommodating
approximately 5000 persons, and the
estimate is that 500 additional tenants
will move in during 1912 With the
exception of hotels, there has been a
greater proportionate increase in apart
ments than in any other type Of public
building in the city.
M. L. Thrower announced today the
opening Of the new $4,000 apartments
at the northwest corner of West Peach
tree and Peachtree place. This build
ing Is three stories and built OF con-
crete, containing six ski room apart
ments, 1t is on lot 75x175, facing on
Peachtree place. and containing front
age on West Peachtree, which will be
used for a front yard.
B. M. Grant & Co. have thrown open
the Werner apartments on Washington
street, opposite the state capitol and
there are many other apartment build
| ings. among which the Albert Howell
structure at the southeast corner OF
Peachtree and Ponce DeLeon stands
out as a "head-lIner." The Howell
apartments are expected to be COM
pleted in the early spring. The frame
work practically is done, much of the
brick laid and some of the massive
stone pillars up in front. Apartments
will soon be built on West Cain street.

There are no high lights-no act which
could be considered so much better than

Probably the best act on the bill is the

last night with Donald Brian and Carroll

either or all Of these usual attractions
u Is only that the exquisite dances which
intervals offer so strong and so novel
an appeal-to interest the other excellences
OF the play are forgotten.
THESE dances are given not only by
Donald Brian. the most graceful dancer
on the stage OF the so-called ball room
dances, but by various members of the
cast and the chorus, each of whom seems

serves 10 present a series Of beautiful
and graceful dances, without resemblance

dancing of the Russans. The numbers
include waltzes. with wonderful "varia-
TONS; polka measures, a glorhed two

esque exhibition by Donald Brian, in the
last act The scenery is but back
ground for this graceful art; the story
but an excuse for its Introduction; the
men and women but charming and grace

Of the several men who made a repu-
tation as Merry Widowers,' Donald
Brian excelled them all in dancing, as
did George Damerel in whimsical love
making and Charles Meacham in his por-
trayal of the Joy OF life. 1.-THE Siren
was skilfully built to give Donald Brian
full scope in the art wherein he excels,
and his company was selected to enhance
the effect rather than to diminish it, for
Brian is too good to fear rivalry in his
dancing.
1t may be mentioned also that Donald
Brian sings well, and has several pleas
ing numbers, which would leave strong
er impress had not his dancing taken up
so much of ones attention
The company with Brian is excellent
Miss McComas is winsome and graceful.
Miss Ethel Cadman is splendid and has
the strongest voice of his company Har-
