We have done so. 1'hoie are some well kept, lawns on tills street, Mr. MeCotikey and ouo in- two others on tlio west side, Mr. Talt; Iiltner Ross, and one or two others, on the east side, deserve great commendation fur their efforts to make this street attractive to the eye. Oat there is room for' some vigorous denunciation of others. Without re ferring to individuals at present, look at the Odd Fellows property. I odd n:u.owrt The Odd Fellows have, perhaps, the most thriving lodge In the city. They are the only fraternal organization that owns the lot and building whero thejnectlngs are held. They meet at leas once a week, aud their meetings are p'robably better attended than the meetings of any other order. Their property is desirably located, and it should be one of the show places of the city. Ik is not. If It has ever been kept free from weeds and rub blsli, we do not recall the time. It has won and maintained a reputation as one of the foulest, most neglected corners of the city. Somebody needs a good scolding. It is easy to scold an unknown person. "JU.W T T TUB SCHOOL OROUSnh Heretofore the school grounds have been neatly kept. This year they are anything but clean aud attractive. True, they might be a great deal worfro, but that is no excuse for their being as disorderly as they are. THE BLOCKS There is not a single block ou Web ster Street deserving of praise. Next to a well-kept lawn there will be a straggling, broken down fence, un painted, unsightly, and of no imagin able use except to reveal the negli gence and carelessness of the owner. Or there will be some scattered bush es, just enough to spoil the general effect. On one lot there Is a limping row of asparagus growing along the pavement. Yet there Is no need of snoh economy of ground. There Is plenty of room, so that intensive agri culture of this spcoies la not required. i TH"K LINDKN Any meutlon of Webster Street would be Imperfect which failed to note the bass wood tree at Sam Klzor's Probably not one In a hundred knows that theie is a llndou treo lu the city, or what such a tree is like. Most of us have hoard or read of the famous street iu Berlin, Unter Den Linden, nnd have been utterly regardloss of tlio bass woods of. America. Mr. Kiz er's tree does not seem to us as- Hour isliingastlio tree of tlie famo vaiiety Ht Robert MoBrldo's, or what used to ho his lots ou Walnut Street. tiik ruts Whether they are Ill's or spruces, wo do not know. Thev wero set out, wo and thoy should mature into the most beautiful trcos iu tho oity, but tho probability is that thoy will bo suffered to die of neglect. Of tho rosldeticcs ou WebUor Street only ono dates back to tlio tinio when the Chief lirst mado its appearance. This is the house now occupied by .lames Rvuii. It was built by Uncle LuiiMooi'A in 1873. The house im- ' mediately south was built just bofoio the grasshopper invasion and marked theeud of Red Cloud's lirst boom. All tho other Itousos 011 thestrrot weio built after the coming of the railway, aud mark tin second boom period. but a little ill temper oma in a while may be a good thing Tho Chief sug gests that Mayor Turnuro appoint a committee of u dozen ladles, who bhall go ovor tho city at tho expiration o( uuxb week, und make a detailed report of every unulemied lot, every un cleaned alley, overy weed patch, every iinti'lv f ! "'i', i""t ! ' f 'own fence, and givu the names of the lot owners and residents who linvo no ic gard for the cleiinlli.css and beauty of the town in which they live. The Chief will gladly publish the report. Real Estate IramtTers. Ileal Kslato Transfers for week end' lug Tuesday, Sept. 10, IMS. Complied by M. W. Carter, Bond cd Abstractors. Henrietta K.
