The street car company In laying new and heavier fails. In Washington street, between Illinois and Mississippi streets, has torn up the isolated strip of asphalt, which formerly lay between, two tracks, and has substituted bowlders, such 11s were before found only between the rails. The Mayor is now considering what ucticn. If any. to take, and the engineer Is preparing to report to the Board cf Public Works.

it was pointed out as a partial compen satipo for the change that the street car company ordered the Western Paving and Supply Company in making repairs, to a spSalt, the" street up to the outside edge of the rails. An Impression" existed in the city offices that there was. as In other streets, a strip of bowlders eighteen inches wide along the outside oi the rails and that the substitution of asphalt there i.ould about equal the taking away of the isolated strip and be more useful than It. As a matter of fact, however, aa the city, tngineer found, the rails were bordered along the outside edge by granite blocks or buffers, forming a tooth edged strip with an of about eleven inches. The amount of asphalt removed as three feet in width, not Including its edges of granite blocks.

The granite docks taken from the outside of tia rails have been used Inside them. An asphalt man has raised the question, whether, unless the street car company ia compelled to replace the torn up strip between the tracks, the paving company can be held to its Contract guaranteeing to keep the street In repair for live years. He' gave the opinion, off hand, lhat such a modification of the character of the improvement would release a company from Its guaranty for the entire width of the street. The city officials say that whatever action they may wish to take is complicated by the fa that ever since Januacy. 114.

the city has been acting on the theory that the street car company's franchise has expired. The city has avoided all official recognition of the company. Vh never iU city wishes to do ally thing In hich the street c'Ur company" plays a there is a consultation with tthp city attcrney, to avoid the danger of i such recognition. Indirect expedients have scmetlnua been used; The Mayor was uncertain before consultation with Mr. Seott.

hew to proceed either toward permitting the street car company to make, the change or how to order it to restore the to Its old condition. The street car company holds that the repairs as a hole, with np to the tails make a better street than there was before. PlUI.Kl ART MEtmti To lie Held In TouillnMon Hall I of the I'nrk.

It comes back to me now. While I was Judge of the. Police Court he was arrested and brwu'stit before me on some trivial sunitury charge. I do not recollect Just what. 'It was something with reference tai.some of the premises that he owned.

While the case waa pending, some one' told me, possibly it waa Mr? Stanton, that was very well off and probably Intended leav inn something to the city, but that he was eccentric, and might be angered by a petty prosecution of this kind, which might seem to him like persecution; that it would peobably be wise for Justice to overlook the matter. I consulted about It. and, as It was a trivial thing, I dismissed the case. I do not know whether I helped save that legacy to the Art As soriution or not. But when I read about It, it seemed to be part of the same story of which the Police Court Incident was part," 1 se of nlvernlty Park.

The park commissioners In an Informal" talk all expressed themselves as opposed to the Idea of using I'nlvVrsUy Park as a site for the Art Association's building. They hold that there are too fear parks now, and the endeavor should be toward getting more park land rather than giving up any now possessed. Some! of them are also of the Impression that, owing to the conditions under which the ground was ceded, the State can hot sell or give away the park except for university purposes, without the consent, of every property owner bordering the i HKjiKCY A1D CIRCIS.
