These property owners oppose payment of the assessment on the ground that both Eighth and Cumberland streets were permanent macadam streets within the meaning of the law for sometime before and at the time of the introduction of wood block paving.

Counsel In Case Harry Khrgood, represents he plaintiffs the suits, all of which it Is understood may stand or fall on the outcome of the suit on trial. City Solicitor Walter C. Oraeff Is representing the city, ihav- ng associated with him at the counsel table. City Councilman George F. Krause, to whose efforts as superintendent of the department of streets, the Introduction and progress of wood block paving, is due.

Deep Interest Taken Deep interest-is being shown in tihe suits and the progress of the hearing was closely followed by a onslderable number of property owners and city officials, Including Mayor Longenecker. who shared a seat at the city's counsel table. First Witness Thomas J. Humphreys, assistant engineer, was the first witness examined. Concerning the conditions of'Eighth street hefore the Introduction of wood block paving, the witness said the grade was uneven, and had a poor riding surface, being filled with ruts.

He declared its condition was poor, explaining that the Introduction of sewerage was re- sponsblle to a great extent, but that macadam was of poor wearing qualities and not of uniform depth. Mr. Humphrey, who has been an assistant in the city engineers office for the passed eight years, was unable to testify concerning the manner of making the street, which'ike declared he considered a reasonably substantial street, the "macadam" being like that used on country roads. Mr. Humphrey brought with him "what is known as the "city plan" and a "profile" of the streets by the Court, from the city from which he was Olty Clerk Sharp City Clerk Dan.

M. Sharp was called as a witness but the admission of a section of the city dig'est containing reference to the adoption of "city plan" in question by Lebanon borough council December 12, 1870, If etsfytiilfif ifl and falf a manner as Boger's Drug Strife 'l selllhg Schiffmlinn's New Concentf ated Expectorant, abiolu- tely no ca'tise fof complaint of dissatisfaction could possibly arise from attyohe.

Croup of any Bronchial Affection, and we will return youf money, just the same as we do with Dr. Schlff- mann'a famous Asthmador, If It does hot give perfect satisfaction, or If It Is hot found the best femedy ever used for any of these complaints." in addition to this guarantee, In order that the public might try this remedy without further delay, these druggists announce they have decided to 'make an extra Inducement and will sell 200 regular BOc size bottle for half price, 25c.

to the first 200 persons who sign and present the coupon below at their store- Although they and the proprietor are losing money on every bottle sold at this price, tthey both have decided to stand this loss, so as to give those who have not yet used this excellent remedy, an opportunity of trying It, at their loss, knowing It will be found the best medicine ever used by anyone.

If a neighbor or friend would take and pay for half the bottle, tha cost of half a pint of this excellent medicine would only cost each about 12 cents. and ho was excused for the time. diaries Henry Oharles Henry, who in 1904-5 was an employe of the city water department, operated the city street roller ih the "macadamizing" of Eighth street, from Cumberland street to the C. and railroad, was next examined as to the manner in which the street was made at that time.

He did riot qualify as an expert In street making and his examination was confined to just what he did on the occasion, George Krall George Krall, superintendent of the Lebanon steam heating company and Philip Light, superintendent of distribution of the Lebanon gas and fuel company, testified to the composition of Eighth street, the natural rock formation being topped by clay and then surfaced with a fill of crushed lime stone of different sizes. Neither had any knowledge of ihow the street was made. James Kaser James W. Kaser, a former, city highway commissioner, testified to making a "new street" on Eighth street between Chestnut and Cumberland streets describing the process as consisting of three different layers of stone on the old "macadam" which he deemed a good foundation, using water and crowning both the street and crossings for the proper drainage. He flxea one year as the limit of time such street would last and then require patch- Ing.
