[ M, RAILWAY AIDS
 IN REPAIRING STREET

Work of improving the condition of Fourth avenue. on the south side of the railroad tracks, netween Main street and Georgia street which was started Monday by the city street forces, is making good progress, the street teams yesterday having started spreading the heavy crushed rock on the street.
 The street has been in very bad condition for 9 lengthy period, but because of number of adverse cir- cumstances, the Iron Mountain rail- road was unable to haul the crushed rock here. for improvement purposes, until the last few days, when several carloads of the material arrived Twelve additional cars of the rock are ,n route, which will be sufficient to finish surfacing of the street.
 Before the rock WIS spread, the street was put back to grade, holes were leveled and other such worK done. As soon as the rock is al spread, the heavy Toad machine will go over it, to work the rock into good condition, and thereafter it is ex- pected the street will be in fine con- dtion for months to come.
