at Nogent sur Marne, telling him that
an Engiish soldier was IN and that he
was n little higher UP the boulevard No
one could understand him. He wanted to

for his horse, which had had nothing for
very long time. Some one had brought
him a chair to sit on, some vinegar to
smell. then a basin OF water to wash his
face, and n woman offered him the leg Of
chicken.
You can imagine how glad he was
when my father arrived. He wanted moth
ing for himself, but was anxious about
his horse. a beautiful creature Of which
he seemed to be very fond. II was given
somo wet oats My mother went out to
shake his hand, and II was such a great

Advocates Of the plan point to the fact
that property from Eighth TO Twelfth
street has not been improved and not
kept up. and that the taking would do
away with a lot OF far from desirable
courts and alleys. The large four-story
cement building occupied by the Inas-
much Mission. Nos. 10li to 1919 Locust
street; the Miles Building. 22s South
Eleventh street, and the six-story Jewel
ers' Building 21e-is South Twelfth street
however, would be taken.
This condition, however, is more than
offset BY values to be met west of Twelfth
street. The Hotel windermere would be
entirely taken, and while It is assessed
at t525,OOo, It is valued far beyond such a
figure.
calvary Presbyterian Church is valued
by the congregation far beyond any price
the city Of Philadelphia would be willing
70 consider. II would never do 10 have
the philadelphia Library jut out into such
a boulevard.
The assessment of properties does not
represent the cost OF taking them by
eminent domain. It would come to nearer
double that figure.
Is II not better to complete some Of the
public improvements now under way, in
doing which the city will have its hands
full to raise the money when wanted? AS
for the loop going under Locust street
that can probably be arranged, by doing
away with the open cut. which certainly
was hardly expected at such central
point, and is not vital issue. BY under
pinning buildings on the north side, there
being none Of enormous size or weight,
the subway will not be interfered with.
