Cliff street has been made netieeably better fer sidewalk travellers, but there are still a number of walks at the low CT end of the street that are not up to the standard that the mayor and the common council want to see maintain ed.
 One of the most notable improve ments has been on Second street in pany has laid a walk almost the entire length of the street. The company has also repaired walks on Genital avenue.
 Sidewalk improvements along Sachen street at the Washington street end make this section as far as Uncas street the show section of the city as far as sidewalks are concerned, but at the other end of the street there are stretches of walk that have not been touched
 Property owners with flag walks seem not to have responded as well as those with other kinds of walks to be repaired This applies to one side of Otis street, part of West Main street, Sachem street and the lower end of Washington street.
 This is the last week in which the property owners have to comply with the orders of the common council on the matter of sidewalks, as 8 report Is expected at the adjourned council meeting Monday evening on those who have not complied with the notices they have received.

Murphy has been keeping Rn eye on the bad places that had been drought to the attention of the owners of the property, and 9 number of these have been fixed since the common council meeting last week. when the extension of time was granted. The contractors in this line of work have been kept very busy, and it Is possible that some property owners have not made their repairs because they have not been able to get the men to do the work when they wanted them, but there are some property owners who have not done anything yet and have not given any indication that they in tend to do anything.
 The city itself has Eeen included in the orders about sidewalk improvement and has responded by repairing the walk for the entire distance along the Franklin street side of the Boswell ave- nue park. The sidewalk on Oak street along the City cemetery is point which needs attention and is to be repaired by the city. A number of Oak street residents and some along Hobart avenue have made the neces- sary repairs to their walks.
 The cracked condition of the walks at the Chelsea parade has been called to the attention of the selectmen, but no repairs have been made there as yet

AT DAVIS THEATRE.
Aborn Comic Opera Company in The
 Chimes of Normandy.


 Tripping down the aisle of the Davis theatre as gracefully, in her way, as any young lady could, Minnie, the l-2 ton pet elephant of the Aborn Comic Opera company, daintily picked her way over the foOtlights and on to the stage Monday evening at 7.30 Just as smoothly did she descend from that elevation and leave the theatre a few minutes after II o'clock. She's 35 now, her keeper, Charles Shupe, says, but she's still as light on her feet as she well can be and she made her two trips the first time that an elephant has ever walked through the foyer and the pit of the theatre like any other play goer-without a bit of timidity or trou- ble. She put a little extra strain on the floor, but that was all. One of the pyramid building drums was placed inside the orchestra railing and Minnie used this as the only intermediate step between aisle and stage, She has a good reach and she doesn't wear hob ble skirts, Her keeper washes and scrubs her every day and she's a pat tern of neatness, She's one of the big features of the fne comic opera, The Chimes of Normandy, that the Aborn at the Davis theatre on Monday even ing Manager Craig had an excellent house.
 The large company, costumed bright " ana aided In tnelr preSen LaI1ou oL the charming story by rich scenic ef- fects, was heard with favor and ap plause in the tuneful choruses which mark Robert Planquette's music.
