It is proposed to complete the east side of the Avenue clear up to the capitol walk before Hie work is taken up on me weBt side at Eighth street The paving committee thinks that the work can be carried on more satisfactorily by completing several blocks at a time on one side of the street, than Jay tak ing it by one block at a time on eacn side. All property owners have signed to pave on the Avenue with the excep tion of one lot.

and It is thought that there will be no great difficulty in procuring the signature for that lot The work of paving is progressing as well as could be expected and when the street is completed Congress avenue will have no superior either in beauty or durability this side of Washington.

NINTH ANNIVERSARY OF PASTOR GF GHUROH DR. J. A. FRENCH GIVES AN AC? COUNT OF HI8 STEWARDSHIP. LARGE CONGREGATION WAS PRESENT MUSIC WAS FINE.

At the First Baptist church yesterday morning Dr. J. A. French celebrated his ninth anniversary as pastor. There was a good audience, the music, under the direction of Professor H.

Guest Collins, was most acceptable, and the minister preacned from the words: "And we beseech you brethren to know them that labor among you, and are over you in the Lord. Be at peace among yourselves. And we exhort you, brethren, admonish the disorderly, encourage the faint heartgd, support the weak, be long suffering toward See that none render evil for evil to any man, but ever follow that which is good one toward another and toward all." I Thessalonlans, 12-15 (revised version). Dr. French spoke on the beauty and duty of Christian altruism as opposed to the self-ceiitered life and unfolded the obligation that Christians owe to the ministry, the obligation they owe to each other and the obligation they owe to themselves.

At the close of the service two new members were welcomed. Within recent years the church has made great progress.

Dust was in evidence yesterday as a result of the cessation for the dui; of street sprinkling. Sand and mud had accumulated on the newly paved streets for several days and had riot bren swept oft and the dry day caused the dirt to be beaten into fine dust, which was blown hither and thither by the high winds which prevailed throughout the day.

The sprinklers did not contract to sprinkle on Sundays, as it twas thought that it was nut necessary. The citizens are making a kick and would gladly welcome some remedy for the dust proposition ou Sundays. The street is much needed, which, if used freely on Saturday nights, would to soma extent obviate the necessity of sprinkling on It is said that the business men and the merchants pay for the sprinkling, and they do not need the sprinklers on Sunday for the reason that their stores are closed on that day. It has been suggested that some steps be taken to have the streets sprinkled at least once each Sunday after they have been thoroughly swept and cleaned on Saturday night. There has been perfect satisfaction over the matter of sprinkling during the week days, but the Sunday dust is a source of inconvenience and great discomfort to the public In general and many suggesuis have been made of late about the remedies therefor.

rain Workers. Erara workers suffer from headache because they over-tax and exhaust the braia nerves. Tired, irritated, turbulent brain nerves throb and ache; this weakens the brain power, and robs the memory. Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Pills bring tranquility to the excited nerves and stop the pain.

If not relieved, this nerve 'disturbance is frequently extended to the stomach, causing nausea, vomiting sick headache. Dr. Miles Anti-Pain Pills are convenient to fake just a little tablet, that in a few moments relieves the pain; they leave no disagreeable aftereffects, as they contain no opium, morphine, cocaine or chloral in any form. "From personal experience I can teaUfy that Dr. Miles' Anti-Pain Piils are a most excellent remedy for headache and neuralgia.

I lve been a great sufferer from both diseases for the past three years. A friend who had also- suffered from neuralgia handed me some of the Anti-Pain Pills. I took them and they gave me almost instant relief. Since then I have paokage at home, and another at the ofllce, and they sever fail to relieve me." R. MEGART, 937 Bawyer Chicago, Ills.
