 There was a public hearing on the proposition to change the grade of Washington avenue, 200 feet from l Courtland street to a. point near Con gress street. City H1n gfneer Terry showed a map and explained that the north side of the street is considerably higher than the south side and that to pave straight across in the present condition of the street would make t dangerous for travel.
 He proposed that bituminous mac l adam 32 feet wide be laid down in the center of the street, leaving macadam on either side. Calhoun Latham, the only property owner there who ap- peared in the matter, agreed to this plan.
