City Engineer Taylor says that the Umbers left In the embankment on Kast Morrison street, between Kast Water street and Union avenue, must be taken out lefore other Improvements can be made. These timbers are part of the old elevated road way and were left when the till was made. Jt had b.-en proposed to Improve the street with stone blocks on a concrete foundation, hut Mr. Taylor decided that It could nut be done while these timbers remained, and for another year at least. It is now proposed to take out the timbers and replank the street. The work will probably not be undertaken until after the holidays, as the business men object to I he disruption of the street while the holMav trade Is on. To remove the tim bers will likely cause the closing of the Mrei t to vehicles, but It will be open for persons afoot and for streetcars. East .Alder street Is being finished between Water street and I'nion avenue, and It run take care of the vehicle travel while Kast Morrison Is being repaired. Oiikp Gkts a I-etter.

Felix Gentila had brought suit to recover KS.25 because the pipe was broken by Big Sichel Co.. while It was being repaired. Gentile said he bought the pipe in France, paying 10 francs for It, Gentile figured that the pipe was worth about 5. It developed, however, that French francs are worth 19.3 cents. Gentile then pleaded that he had smoked the pipe five months, and that the time he thus spent in coloring It was worth 317 to him. He said he was obliged to pay Slchel (1.25 'or the repairs, and be also wanted Interest from the first day of August, when he took the pipe to the cigar store. Judge Olson discovered from the testimony that one of the claws to an eagle, which Is engraved on the pipe, was broken before it was turned over for repairs, and decided that the last break was mended in such a way that the pipe is not injured.
