The Conferedate vet (i11is were here inl large numb111I)ers and every one spoke of the delightftul oin tertainient and courteous treatment which he had received. They were - especially pleased with the elegant dinner, wh'ieh was served in the court I house by the Daughters of the Con federacy. This dinner consisted of harheened hash, pork andl itinttoi, to -ether with coffee and ice cream and eake, and the beauty about it was thliat eaelh Clonferedate veteran was --vivenl a seat at a table and served by tile young ladies theiselves, and coulld thlus eat his ditiner so as to enjoy it.

AS TO' WIDENING STREETS. Thompson Street ShoulI be Mad Straight-Widening oommitWtes Making Progress Mowly. In rgird to widen-ing the streets, it seems that not much progress ia, been made. There is one street to wlhieli The I-erald and News desires to call a(tention and that is Thomp soin street. Mr. Sonnen'borg and Mr. J. (1. ivown, who are building onl tie east side of this street, have set back about six feet. On the other sida it was understood from the synd icate which -hod bought the old laun dry lot, that it would be set 'back, but the corner has been purchased by Mr. W)hittliker and Mrs. Schumpert. and the foundation is being made for a building. It seems from the founda tion that is laid off that these parties have set back oil the Pratt s reet corner but on the rear end of' their lot they hiave not set back. - it wonld he a great pity for this building to ,no up with the rear corner of it pro jecting in the street, an.d if it is pos sible for city council or any one else to get Mr. Whittaker and Mrs. Schumpert to straighten their line on the Thonpson street side, now is the time to do it. This street itnning inl rear of the iew court house, it is very important that it should be wid ened if it is Ilossible tt) have it done. Alderman Baxter made another snig xestion -,Is, Io this street. whicli should Ihave at en i ion. and that is t0ha wh1ere if crosses Pratt street it should he st raiihenedl up to the gra1ded svhool 1fil.

A Good Suggesction From a Member of Civic ABsooation-Referred to Mayor Brown and Council. Through the influence of the Amer ican Civic Association a great many cities in the United States have a re gular spring eleaning on a (ay set by the mayor, when streets, alleys, back yards, and silewalks are clean ed, together with anyoother thing of the kind that needs it. Denver, a few years ago, at the' call of Mayor Sheer, thoroughly cleaned all its downtown, streets and alloys, painted all poles used in its fire and police systems, placed new and improved refuse canls at street crossings, and private .citlzens looked aftier their owni property and neighborhool to the great improvement in licalth ord orliness and taste. Mayor Dunne of Chicago selected May 7, atid called up oil aill householders to gather ill) tin calns aII other Iub)isl to be a-kenl upl) by garbage collectors; school clil drenl were enlisted in the work; house holders. were reminded of the city re gulations concerning the disposal of waste. Grand Rapi(ls, Kalamazoo, New Orleans, and many other cities have followed the example of Chica qVo anld Denver. In our onw state the Moyar of Anfdersoin at the request of the Civie Association of that town set the first week il Alay for clealin.g up week.

The Civic Association Wonts to olp the City and Asks Cooperation of Counom. The Civic Association have askbd city Couteil to do three things, all tilhreo of which should bo done. First, that the opera house on the i.tisiido be ealeinkined and repainted before commenement. Any one who has been in t opera house recently will -at once apprecia,te the impor tane of this suggestion. -Second', to provid-e -by ordinance tilhat certain days be set apa'rt for .the garbage carts to collect garbage in each ward, aid that the residolts of the wards be required to place trash a.nd garbage fron their promis es in a box or barrel conveniently on the side walk or street, so that it might be gathered up by the carts. With the present earl, facilities it will be impossible for the carts to go overl eachl0 yard eae-y day, as there are some twenty-eight, miles of streets in the city, but by having certain days for each ward, It would be a very easy matter for the residents of the wards to have their trash bask ets conveiiently set. for the carts on the days set apart for those wards. Third, that. Civic Association asks for f'le first week -in Junte to be set apart by the ma1.1yor to be kiowi as cleatniig. up week for -the city. Any one who will keep 4iis eyes open and look onl our streets any day and any lime of tile daY will see the inecessity not only for a cleainl'g up1) week, bit. for eleail in. iul weeks.
