Paving of Second St.
Subway Is Under Way;
Putting Down Sidewalk

Paving of the Second street subway
at Mulberry street is under way.
The concrete foundation work is
nearing completion on the slopes and
and it is the intention of the contrac-
tors to push this work as rapidly as
possible. In addition to the paving of
the subway proper the railroad COM
pany VIII repair what portions of Sec
ond had to be torn up when the i'm
provement work was begun. This
means that new paving will likely be
extended as far down as Vine street
while practically all of the stretch
from Chestnut to Vine street between
the trolley tracks will be renewed.
While the paving contractors are
busy on the street, gangs of men are
putting in the western sidewalk and
finishing the necessary excavations for
the sidewalk on the east side. The
foundations for the long concrete re-
tanning wall that is to support the
Mulberry street embankment have
been finished.

the present terminal point just below
Market street bridge. The money for
these steps has been provided. As
soon as these sections are finished, we
will begin the excavation for the other
series which will carry the line across
the wharf opening. If, in the mean
time, the city is favored financially by
the verdict of the interceptor arbitra-

ask for any additional money for the
extra flights of steps. If the city losses
out then we'll have to ask Council for
whatever money is needed. At any

the steps. Since the people have had
chance to see just how the rest of
the river front looks with the steps, |

and within ten minutes there will be
an appearance of abundance, fresh

cure for itchy scalp and it never fails
to stop falling hair at once.
