It is hoped to carry 1 the. cement beyond the property of v Mr. C. 1j. Ilavird. Most of the pro- ' perty holders on this street have agreed to the plan?in fact, nearly \ all of t'hem?and it hoped and expect- i ed t'hat those who have not yet agreed t "/ill do so inwncdii. ,ely so that the i work may be pushed. The property 1 holders for a part of the way havj j :>greed unanimously; so that an ex- \ ten-ion for some distance is already 1 nssnred. The next work after the Boundary \ street extension will probably be on Caldwell street in front of the Baptist church and the residence of Mr. <"ieo. \V. Summer.
