Excavation work can be started withm a few days, and paving can be laid rapidly, but it is hardly probable that more than a half dozen blocks, at most, can be laid before the heavy rains.

If they can get about 100 signers to a petition, an election will have to be called.. If the majority of the voters in the city say the pro posed improvement should not be carried through, then the council will have to cease its ac tivity. Those opposed haye ten days after tonight in which to in voke the referendum, in case they desire to do so. Little Paving This FaD It is evident that no great amount of paving can be done this fall.
