JUST so IT'S DONE, THAT'S ALL.

way Tracks on Eighth.
An ordinance was passed on

An ordinance was passed on second
reading at the mornings session of
the city commission, ordering the To-
peka-. Street Railway company to re-
pave its right Of way on West Eighth
avenue, on the blocks from which the
abandoned tracks are being removed,
within the next thirty days. putting a
two and one-half inch asphalt surface
over the pavement now laid there.
If the company does not do the
work within the next thirty days, it
will be done by the city, and charged
up with the conrpany's taxes, to be
paid for in the next ten years.
The probabilities are that the conn
pany will permit the city to do the
work, and will pay the bill as it is
spread over the next ten years.
Meanwhile the street railway is do
ing the work.
