Cheeseborough Manufacturing
Company Petition Aldermen
for the Improvement.
ROUTINE BUSINESS.
Aldermen Notified of Frame Structure be
ing Erected Within the Fire Limits—To
Purchase Winter Coal—Invitation to go
to Allentown—To Establish Grade on
New Brunswick Road.
A request to have Grant street pro
perly lighted was received at the
meeting of the Board of Aldermen
last night. The petition was signed
by the Cheeseborough Manuracturing
Company and stated that tomorrow
they expected to begin work in one of
their buildings at their new plant
here and would employ a large num
ber of women and girls. Those em

and will stop about 5.30 o’clock. The
petition called attention to the fact
that the short winter days were now
approaching and that at the hours
mentioned it would be dark, that
Grant street, at present, was prac
tically without lights and that for the
safety of the employes some illumina
tion should be made. The petition
was referred to the committee on
lights.
There are only two or three houses
on Grant street. It is a comparative
ly new street and for a greater part
of its length is bordered on both sides
by woods. As the appropriation for
lighting was used up at the first of
the year without a single new light
being placed anywhere in the city, it
is a question what the committee on
lighting will do in the matter.
Among other tilings considered by
the aldermen was a communication
from John Switzer, of 123 Smith
street, who stated that a frame build
ing, ‘‘at least eighteen feet high,”
had been erected on the property
H21 Smith street. He stated
ierstood this was a viola
fire limit ordinance and
hat some action be taken,
unication was referred to
btee on judiciary,
tracir between Henry H.
? Beliuar, and the city, pro
viding for the driving of two or more
wells at Runyon, was accepted, and
proper officials instructed to sign it.
An ordinance to establish a grade
on New Brunswick road from the
Lehigh Valley railroad west to the
city limits, was introduced by Aider
man Toft and passed on first reading.
The recommendation of the street
committee to waive all preliminaries
and to advertise for bids for establish
ing a grade on Prospect street, was
adopted. The committee found that
three-fourths of the property owners
had petitioned that the preliminaries
i be waived.
I Alderman Runyon reported that one
' of the two last wells authorized was
giving an abundant supply of water
and might prove to be the largest over
there.
Mayor Seaman returned approved
the resolution to drive new wells at

Not Yet Ready to Commence
Ejectment Suit Against Cap
tain J. Buchanan.
WANT WRITTEN OPINION
.Some discussion took place at the
meeting of the Board of Aldermen,
last night, over the proposed eject
ment suit to be brought against Cap
tain James Buchanan to compel him
to move the fence on the north side
of his property at Smith and State
streets. A resolution was introduced
instructing the city attorney to insti
tute the suit.
Alderman Runyon made an amend
ment that the street committee confer
with the city attorney regarding the
city’s right to the strip of land in
question.
Alderman Gannon, who introduced
the resolution, said he could soe no
reason for that as the matter had
already been threshed out. Mr. Run
yon replied that his amendment did
not chango the meaning of the resolu
tion but was simply to comply with
the suggestion made to him by the
city attorney.
Aldermnu-at-Large Eckert said the
city should be absolutely sure in
taking a step of this kind and he
thought the best thing would be for
the city attorney to give tho Board of
Aldermen a written opinion as to the
position of the city in this matter.
Mr. Gannon declared that all this
would take time and he thought the
city attorney would not institute the
suit unless tie deemed it a safe thing
to do.
The motion of Alderman Toft, how
ever, that the city attorney give a
written opinion to the stroet commit
tee and that the committee report at
the next council meeting, was carried.

Four Thoroughfares to be Improved

at the meeting of the Board of Aider
men last night. There were but two
bidders, Martin Hanson and Graham
& McKeon. The contracts for work
ing all four thoroughfares were award
ed to the latter firm.
There was a big difference in the
bids for the work presented by the
two contractors. For Oak street, Mr.
Hanson bid forty cents per cubic yard

A DARK BLUE MOHAIR FROCK.
Dark blue Sicilian mohair is a very
good fabric for making a fall frock,
and the design illustrated here is a
nice one to follow in making one. A
full blouse is first made of ecru em
broidered batiste, witli embroidery
collar and cuffs.
The little jacket has inch tucks go
ing around it, also around the sleeves.
The jacket is sewed in the shoulder
seams with the blouse, but the rest
hangs loose from it. It fastens down
the left side with an accordion-pleat
ed ruffle of taffeta, over a fall of Qcru
batiste embroidery.
The girdle is made of four shades
of green taffeta—getting lighter as it
i goes to the top. The skirt is seven
gored, with an inch tuck down each
seam, and three tucks of the same
size around the edge.
OBJECT TO ROUTE OF
SMITH STREET SEWER.
Oanish Relief Association Send Re
monstrance to Board of
Aldermen.
The Danish Relief Association sent
a remonstrance to the Board of Aider
men last night against the construc
tion of the Smith street sewer accord
ing to present plans. They are opposed
to the. improvement on the ground
that, according to their understand
ing, the sewer is to pass through the
grounds of the Central railroad and
thence down South Second street to
the river. In construction, the asso
ciation claims, the Central railroad
will not be assessed. It is suggested
iu the remonstrance that the sewer
pass through Elm street to the river.
In this way it would benefit a large
number of property owners and reduce
the assessment.
In planning this sewer, the route
was laid out according to grade and
as Smith street slopes two ways, the
lowest point in the proposed sewoi
routu being about at the Central rail
road, the South Second street route
to reacli the river was considered the
best and cheapest of the city.
