PAVED Tne meeting of the North fourth street and Washington boulevard property owners, which wis.i held at the Commercial Club rooms l&it evening, with L. L. Hemck ti.-i chair man and Mr. Fromme as seceta-y, resulted in a unanimous exi: e: Ion In favcr of bituminous macadam street paving, with concreio side walks and curbs. Wifi City Engin eer iiobson as the principal speaker ft'id advisor, various forms of living were discussed, from standard tuac adam to bitullthlc, His estimate for standard macadam alone was 50 ctr.tn per square yard, and for stan1 ard macadam with a hurl suifa'e top dressing (bituminous) approxim ately $1.50, c.r, considering guttc curb and sidewalk, about $.'."' p- running foot for the first and $4.40 for the second, figuring to the mldd' of the street. Bitullthlc pavement for the same roadway was estimated to cost $6.00 per running foot. All of the above estimates were based on a 36-foot roadway, 32 feet of which would be paving and 4 feet gutter with cement curbs, a strip of park Ing and 6 feet of cement sidewalk As representing the best combination of the three qualities cheapness serviceability and appearance the bituminous macadam was unanlm ously selected and the petitions pro viding for this hard surface macadam were turned over to Mr. Hobson, with instructions to deliver to the city council at their next meeting, to be held next Thursday evening. The almost unanimous expression of all the property owners on these streets In favor of the bituminous macadam and cement sidewalks, as shown by the very strong petitions turned In last night, makes the outlook for a good substantial pavement on these streets within the near future very encouraging. NEW ADDITION IS BEING PLATTE!) Messrs. S. J. Taylor and R. S. Wheeler, of this city, are at work a platting proposition that promises to be a fine residence district In tka near future, the land eomprisiag some fifteen acres facing on Orchard avenue tnd running back as far as Ninth street. The tract will be plat ted Into something over 100 lots of the usual size, with a 60-foot street connecting with Seventh. Those run ning east and west will be 10 feet; all alleys throughout the addition will be 10 feet. Provision has bn made for parking and tree planting; streets will be graded and altogether the addition Is laid out with a view to making It a first-claim residence section. City Engineer F. J.

These wul have a granite finish and be rein forced by a half-inch pipe extending through both horizontal and perpen dicular portions, serving not only to strengthen the posts but al30 afford ing conduits for electric wiring. A sample cluster will be made and Installed In the park, embracing five lights four drops and one center. The posts will be 10 feet in height to hanging globe, and 16 Inches from this hanging device to top of arm. Posts will have a diameter of 9 Inches at base and 6 inches at top of main column, with a foundation one foot square. Distance of spread at top, three feet. Different sizes of globes may be Introduced as deemed necessary, the lights being tungstens varying from 60 to 100 candle power four of the former and one of the latter on drop and center lights re spectlvely. These posts will ie constructed at home, and here is where the ele ment of economy cornea in. Mr, Ollbertson Is sanguine of results and Is going right ahead with the work of installing this sample equipment, and a petition to the city council to have these lights universally Install ed throughout main portions of the city will be contingent upon the sue cess of this enterprise. But what ever the council does, the park com mission and Civic improvement club will go ahead and Install a certain number of the lights anyway.
