R Adair this date, etc. Great Improvements have re cently been made in this part of the city. By actual count over fifteen bind ings, several of them business houses, have been erected within the past twelve month. Owing to the demand for s reets a numerously signed pctltlen was presen d to the city council on Wednesday even- j Ing last, asking for the Improvement of I Harrison avenue from Its connection with Harrison avenue, on the cast line of i HMvely' Afrt:, fhenr easterly to tT.'.h ! street, thence south one block to Irving avenue, and thence easterly to 40th street. As there are already some fifteen dwell ings on tho lino of tho above streets, and the desire for their Improvement Is prac tically unanimous, on the part of the ad jacent property owners, It Is reasonable to suppose that the Improvement will be made at an early date. ALMOST A MURDER... Contractor Lucas, of Struck With the Waterworks, a Rock. About 10:30 o'clock yesterday morning, the well known contractor, Chas. Lucas, who finished the waterworks power house and Is completing the stone work on the reservoir, while stooping down at work on the coping, was attacked ond nearly killed by a man named Tote. The man first accosted his victim and then hit him In the head twice with sharp rocks. Mr. Lucas fell down unconscious and-the men In tho cxcltemcn and anxiety to take care of Mr. Lucas, did not attempt to arrest his assailant, who escaped to the woods. It was stated by someone who knew the man, or knew of him, that Tote was a quiet. Inoffensive man who had worked on the tunnel under Lucas, In the sum mer, and had been discharged, as he claimed, for refusal to change his board ing place. Late In the afternoon Chief Loughery and Officers Rlnnott and Thompson went up to the vicinity of Tongue Point look ing for Tote, but up to a late bour last night had not been heard from.
