The New Street The work of grading Irving avenue from Eighteenth street, east, ii pro gressing rapidly, the grade having been practically completed a far east as Thirtieth street, there' being only a few more gulches to fill. When this street is completed and paved, it will certainly be a very desirable location for a residence district, for the view from any portion of its entire length will be unsurpassed. The grade ex tend along the side of the ridge and the ground on the north side of the street will generally be lower than the street thus affording a good view to dwcllinir that mav be built on either side, and we predict that there will be a great many dwellings built on this new street in the very near luture.

Repairs Work was begun yesterday on the repairing and rebuilding of the boiler house and engine room of the North Pacific Brewery which were recently so badly damaged by fire. A force of mechanics are now busy in overhaul ing the engines and other machinery and tearing out the burned portions of the building which remain stand ing. This fire proved that the use of asbestos coverings on boiler is a benefit in more way than one, for there is ho doubt that the boilers at the brewery were saved by the asbes- tor covering. The heat was success fully withstood and the only, thing that affected the linings on the boil ers was the immense amount of water thrown on the fire. It will require about one week to get the new smoke- stocks in olace and the rebuilding of the houses and repairing of the en gine, etc, will probably consume about four or five weeks after which the brewery will be in full operation again. , INTER-SCHOLASTIC '-'DEBATE; WELL 8USTA1NED ARGUMENTS FROM BOTH TEAMS, FACTS, FIGURES AND FANCIES FREE LY FURNISHED LARGE AT-TENDANCE.
