Oustav Schlieske. - ' ' 10-3-tfd From Saturdays Uallr. Work has" just commenced on what will be one of the greatest improvements that has been made on the Plattsmouth streets since the paving of Vine street, and that i the curbing and gut tering of North Sixth street and Oak street from Fifth lo Seventh. When this is finished these thoroughfares will be among the best in the city and afford a splendidly kept driveway for those residing in that section of the city. The streets will be narrowed somewhat by parking, which will add greatly to the appearance of the same, and a four-foot com bined curb and gutter placed along each side, taking up some four feel. The dirt roadway be tween the curbs can be kept in much better shape as Ihe curb ing takes away the chances for washing, such as occurs after every heavy rain, and while the cost of the construction may seem a trille heavy to the resi dents along the line of the im provements it will cut. the cost of the work on the street down lo a very low ligure. It is thought that in a year -or so that it will be possible to have these streets paved, as the surface to be cover ed will not be so great after the curbing and guttering is install ed, and if it is possible to gel Ihe paving done it will certainly make these streets the finest in the city. In the line of extending public improvements the residents of Main street leading up lo the High school are also getting the curbing and guttering fever and it is thought likely that, next spring they will be ready to come to the front with a petition lo have the work started, and this beautiful street placed in proper condition. Let the good work coul inue. 'and every street in Ihe city.be plaeedjii such shape that they will be a. matter of pride to Hie residents of the city anil something that can be made an advertisement for the city.
