THIRD STREET WILL BE PAVED Property Owners Meet aiid Decide Last Niulit They Will Also Select the Material Used Sentiment Is Unanimous In Favor of the Improvement and Immediate Steps Will be Taken for Its Accomplishment. At the request of the board of control ot the property owners on Third street met in the court room at the city buildings last night to discuss and take action upon the paving of the street. T. V.

Howell, O. V. Parrish, Israel Williams, J. C. Slaybaok, Dr.

A T. Good, John Sweet, Dr. C. Markt, F. B.

Pntholl' and tt number of the board of control. On motion of J. C. Slaybaok, Israel Williams was selected as chairman and on motion of F. B.

Pathoff, J. C. Slayback was chosen as secretary. At the request of Israel Williams, President McMackeu of the board of control stated that the object of the meeting was to get the opinion of the property owners as to whether they wanted Third street paved or not, if so with what kind of material and whether, without a petition they wanted the board to go ahead with the improvement trusting to them to pave the street in the best and most economical manner. On motion of O.

V. Parrish it was nnsnimously fleclartd to be the sense of the meeting that Third street be paved from Five Points to Old river. President McMaken stated that the average width of Third street was 42 feet from curb to curb and that one question that ought to be considered was the advisability of narrowing the street about two feet on each side as' a lessening of the paving expense and for the purpose of presarving the shade trees. J. C.

Sloyback' said that especially from Dayton sheet -north were many beautiful shade trees on Third street which were a fine ornament to the city and which ought to be preserved at all bezards. If by narrowing the si reel the trees could bo saved and an amply sufficient roadway left for street car travel and-other troffiic he was thoroughly in favor of narrowing the street, say a foot and a half or two feet on each side. F. Puthoff said that the same qneslion had come up about a year ago when it was proposed to pave tb.9 street and so far as South. Third street was concerned the property owners froin High street to the railroad were opposed to narrowing the street as it was largely a business portion and there were no shade irees to be harmed.

But from the railroad south the sentiment was in favor of narrowing the street. Dr. A. T.Gtood agreed with the views of J. C.

Slayback as to that part of the street from Dayton street, north. O. Parrish eaid that all the property owners south oE the railroad favored the narrowing of the street two feet on each side and leaving a 38ft. roadway. F.

B. Pntholl said that the Main street paving had been constructed in thst manner, the street having been narrowed with the exception of the east two squares. Israel Williams desired to know if there had been any plans, specifications and estimates prepared for paving the street. President McMaken replied that the city civil engineer was engaged in their preparation now and upon their com pletion and submission to the board they would be referred to a committee and could be consulted by the citizens at any time. F.

B. Puthoff said that the time to select the material was after bids on various materials were in. Dr.C.Markt favored the iinprovarnen but was not favorably inclined to any narrowing of the street and least of al from High street to the railroad. F. B.Puthoff said that with all dsfer ence to the intelligence of the propertj owners on the street he hoped the: would select tbe material in a diilereu minner from that in which the sslec tion was made for High street which was largely a matter of electioneering He was in fact in favor of leaving th matter to tho board to use their bes judgment and provide what was bes for the needs and wants of tho strest.

T. V. Howell moved that the entir matter be left to tbe board of control. J. C.

Slayback said that he wasiirml of the opinion that the people who pai for the improvement ought to some voice in the selection of the mate; isl. President McMaken said that th board of control was on record to ihe selection of material to the propert owners and abide by their decision. Israel Williams said that he was ver seriously opposed to tho motion, did not believe in placing tho who matter absolutely and unconditional in the hands of the board. Ho believe that when the plum and gpcclficatioi were completed and referred to a coi mitteo of tho boar.l, a committee of tl cimansonnht to confer with the boa committee und go ovor plans with view to agreeing upon the aim wMcb the plans nhouU reported ii'k to the board fyr actyyiiwi. Per amendment of Dr.

Markt to the otion of Mr. Howell who accepted amendment it was decided that hen the plans were reported back to board and adopted and bids had jeeu advertised for and submitted, the owners should then be called to make their selection of material. In response to a question by Israel President McMakeii stated at the materials embraced by the ane, specifications and estimates were trifled brick and block and sheet as- halt. On motion of J.C. Slayback the board control was requested to instruct the ty civil engineer to also prepare plans jecih'oations and estimates for McAda- iziug the street and to advertise for ds on that material also.

On motion of Dr. A. T. Good the amilton and Lindenwald Electric ransit was requested to so iiu- rove the machinery of their cars as to un them more noiselessly than they do present and as they are operated in her cities. On motion of J.

C. Slayback the chair as authorized to appoint a committee one property owner from each block North Third street to ascertain the of the owners as to the kind of aving material to be used. The coin- ittee will be appointed in duo time. Adjourned. NEWS FROM THE COURTS I Rathbone Files His Answer to the Hume Suit.
