W. I. lUKKll , a.I Councilman Sixth Wo.rel. CHANGING FRONT. The Bff ! Enterprise of the B. & M , Rftilway. In Which the Union Pacific AttomptB to Intoroforo , Wlmt May bo Looked for In Future. Until within the past few weeks no ono considered the bluff overlook ing tlio river front as of any particu lar value , and the flat below , with its ponda of stagnant water was thought still loss of. About that time , how ever , it was announced that tlio Bur- ngton it Missouri railroad company wan about to purchase or condemn the mipcrty from Frtrnam to Jackson streets and erect a laige freight dnpot with yards amply largo to accomnio late their own bimincss , with that of thoC.H. A Q. in cniolho lattei should decide to come into Unmlm by way of L'latUmoiith They wont to work immediately and have secured for I ho use designa ted the territory hounded as follows : Jackwm ntreol on Routh , Kiililh direct on the north as far as Sixth street , then up Sixth to Douglas struct. For tlie property condiiinned they have al ready deposited § 1(0,000 ( in the county clerk's ollico , and in addition they have just purchased tlio Kountzo block , but'-een Howard and Jackson on Eighth , They ex pect to spend $00,000 for the grounds and $00,000 for buildings and yards. On Tuesday evening they petitioned the council fet ponniiftioii to lay tracks on Sixth street , between Har tley and Jackson , Seventh , between Douglan and the south line of Jackson and on Jackson between Sixth and Ninth ; on Howard , between Fifth and Eighth ; llurnuy , between Sixth and Eighth , through the alleys of same nnd across Fiirnam and DougloH Htreets. On the same evening an ordinance was introduced to grant the Union Pacific rail way the right to lay two or moro tracks over and along laokson street , east of Ninth. An this camu directly up to the property just purchased by the Burlington t Missouri , it was aurmisod that it was an attempt to head them oil' in Home way , and so in fact it sueiiis to be. A UKK reporter called on Superin tendent Holdrego yesterday and was shown by him tlio map and plans of their contemplated improvements and also obtained the following points from him : The IJ. it M doaircH to secure room to handle its freight business and ex tend its yards so as to bo ample both for present und future purposes. They also want room enough to allow the C. U. it Q. to handle their freight hero instead of on the other Bide of the river , if they wish to. The H , it M. will soon bo in Denver and their Colorado business which will bo fiom the first very largo , is to bo handled in Omaha Of course , this could not bu done even with good houses and yards if .these are not ac cessible to the Onwlm busiuojs men , and Stint. lloldrego says the object of the Uunn 1'ucilio ia evidently to fill up Jackson street with tracks and prevent its being paosablo for teanm to and from their freight depot. The U. P. is also do'- torminod to keep them out of the hollow formed by the South J Omaha creek entirely if possible and they already have it , lillod with bucks from Jones street to their passenger depot "Tho is " said the point , superin tendent , "we want some facilities loft for reaching onr depot , and they seem determined to take even that uway if they can. Wo have bought all the property on one bide of Jaokson - street , and they don't ' own a lot on either side , unless it may be ono or two that are mink in the ponds at . the foot of the hill , Now they want * to go to work and lill up the street with tracks which will give them also both sides of the McCormick elevatois. They have trucks on ono side now and yet vir tually refuse to receive grain that comes through that elevator. " What the outcome will be is of f course uncertain , but it hardly suuiiis possible that as mutters ithe ters stand they will pass the ordinance , which was read twice , and then rofened to the committee on streets and giades. The enterprise of the Burlington & Missouri people means the changing of the river front from 8a wet , unhealthy and useless lo cality to ono of the busiest and most valuable portions of the city and there is no dmtbt but it will load to similar moves on the p.irt of other roads. The Northwestern has but > small depot grounds , the Missouri 1'ucifio will soon be in and want yard room , and the first thing Omaha knows the whole river bottom ivill bent - occupied by } ards , as the tlats are at Kunsua Oity.

ANOTHER ONE FROM CURRY'S The Dljj Barkeeper MuwhoH u Mien's Bye in. Wiley Potto t , a pretty good sized colored man , appeared nt the polio o.n rt ystorday with a badly damaged face and n closed eye , ant mvoro out a warrant against Fronl Adams , the herculean darky bar keeper at Curry's place , charging th 10 latter with having assaulted him. The story told by Pettet is that h 10 went , into the place yesterda 10y ; about 10 o'clock , and found a numho of men engaged in a game of seven m for the "cider. " Ilo proposed to take a hand in the game when Adam objectodand then commenced to abus the complainant. After a few words hud passed lie charges that Adams struck him n tor- rible blow in the face and then pum- moled him severely. The effects of the beating wore plainly visible as the man uncovered his face. Pottet also alleges that ho has boon the victim of several other assaults by Adams in days gone by , and that ho was cut with a knife by ono ot heat 1 hangers-on at tho. . saloon on Christ mas. Ho said that it had gone as for as it could and ho was bound tote make somebody sillier. In answer to the question as to what they : ro soiling in Curry's place ho od that they only sold cider and cigars as far as ho knew , WORTHY OF PRAISE.

At the meeting of Iho board of trade and citizens on Monday even ing , to hear the report of the commit tee on street paving , reference was made to a recent report of the city on- ginocr of DCS Mom s on the same stibjost and the fact that ho figured laying down granite in that city for § 1 50 per yard. Mr. John A.

Gr.NTi.EMnNBy : the permissioi granted mo by your honorable body , I have visited the following named cities for the purpose of studying Hie subject of paving ; St , Louis , Now York , Newark , Eliaibuth , Plainludd , Ithaca , Utici , Cleveland , Akron , Detroit - troit and Chicago. Ihavcm.vlo > t my business in ull of these cities , when possible , to con suit with the men who were in im mediate charge of pavements , TO KXAMIMK T11EIU I'AVUMUSIS , having with mo the date at whicl they wore laid , and to see now worl which was in process of construction Uy adhering to this plan I hnvo beoi enabled to see the practical side of th subject , and I think with the preson state of uflairs the council ought , fo the present al least , to conline Use ] to that , leaving the theoretical and ex porimpntal aide to others. I will not usk you to read a detaile- - statement of all that I have seen an heard , but will give you the loadin facts and figures , together with all the conclusions which I have read : The opinion of those with whom 1 have conversed , and the evidence which I have seen with my own oycs , are overwhelmingly IK IAVOII 01- TUB HKLOIAN PAVEMENT laid on a concrete foundation is the best , nnd in the long run , the cheapest of all that have boon thoroughly tonted. The next sl.ylo in order of merit , according to the conclusions which I have reached , is the Telford Macadam pavement , when made of granite or trap rock. - Thu next in order is the cedar block - pavement. The next , limestone Maeidam , with Telford foundation. And the next is the pine block or > Nicholson pavement. I have not made the asphalt pavement n special study , as I have seen but little of t.e Its uno in this latitude would t.is > something of an experiment , and it is too costly to experiment with. There is a ureat variety of patented artificial paying material , nearly all of which ! depends on mechanical or chemical combinations , the results of which are TOO UNCERTAIN TO HE THU&TK1) for paving purposes. The Bolgiai pavement is laid with or without the concrete foundation. The pavement is nearly indestructible in either case , but when laid without the cot-creto foundation the blocks in course of time settle unequally , and the pave - ment becomes rough. Onr streets being - ing of the yielding prnirio loam , honeycombed with gas , water and sewer trenches , it would bo very unwise - wise to lay anything so expensive tins - the Holgian blocks without first pre paring a foundation for it. This , pavement , including the foundation . will cost about 50 cents per square foot , or1.50 per square yard , equiv alent to § 27.75 per lineal foot on Wal nut street , provided the sidewalks are not widened. Tlui pavoinont which comes next in the iibovo order of merit is the gran ite Macadam with Tolfonl foundation but that is not the pavement for us for if wo must pay freight on uranito the granite should be in the shape of blocks. The next in order is THK CKI > tll II1.UUK PAVEMENT. - I have a much bettor opinion of this , kind of pavement than I had when , wont away ; for so far as I have boon able to ascertain , the blocks us yet have never boon known . to . deeiy . ; though many of thorn have been in ; use since 1871) ) , the durability beiny limited only by the time required tc wear them out. Ono I saw in Chica " go having been exposed to uncom monly heavy traffic since 1875 is ap - parently as good as when first built They have increased the length ol the block in Chicigo to sovou inches. it i The pavements when well laid car safely bo depended on for ton 01 twelve years of satinfactory service He and their cost hero will bo about sev enteen cents per square foot , or $9.-l in per lini'jil foot on Walnut street e\ elusive of the grading. a If it should be decided that we cannot ' 'an1 not allord tlio Uelgian pavement , , shall unhesitatingly lecommuiul this - style of pavement for our businos streets. In legard to the pine blocker or Nicholson pavement , I will simpl say that it ujsts us much as the coda be block nnd is not as good. , Tii limestone Macadam , though ; kive : given it the last place in the above order of merit , is worth our - careful consideration. I have give it the last place because it is so isat- isfuctory on account of its dust and dirt. Though Macadam ed atroeta are not satisfactory , they are far preferable to onr mud roads. The material is at hand and they can IMS constructed at a very moderate jst , provided the roadway is nar- owed , us it should bi > , to thirty-three feet , nnd we ougjit , during the next wo years , to build at least twenty miles of them. About five miles of tir t business street a should bo paved with a better quality of pavement , tut beyond that limestone Macidam is admissible. Such a pavcinen' , ith careful watchingnnd with a mod- rate OUTLAY OF KXPKNHi : , can bo kept good for a long term of years , whcrens , if wood should bo slid , at about the tenth year wo vould have u whole city of streets in dilapidated condition. After giving this subject six wcoks f careful study and after exerting ny best judgment , I fcol it my duty o recommend that about one and a lalf iles to he selected from our rincipal business strcots bo paved luring the comint ; season with pranito or Medina sandstone blocks laid on a concrete foundation. I further recommend that the next lifoo inilcH selected in the same man ner be paved with cedar blockf. In case this plan should bo adopted when the cedar block pavement com- nonces to fail it would undoubto'ly > o replaced with the granite block ( lavement and the result \\cjitld be , everal miles of p.vvcmo.its which \v- would bo proud of. If one und one- lalf miles of Jiolgian pavement is , houglir to bo too extravagant reduce the amount , but by all ini-ans lay some of it s'i that , experience may , us surely Wlll , PltOVK ITS M'PMIIOIim ' and lead to itd IvriiiL1 mi-d to oplnco the oheapet p.ut ui"iit.s r.s they t'.ul From year to ycnr While on this btibjeot I want to urge upon the council the tlenirability of enforcing luinliivii'ce - - which re quire a better grxle of nidow.ilki lor our btiMtn'Hs nMei'ic. The ordinance should ccit.uuly be enforced on streets us fatt as they are paved. Plunk walkt ) should be taken up and replaced with stone , or brick , or their equivalent. Walks that are above grade should bo lowered , and they should all bo made to conform with the lines of the streets. Three-quarters of all the walks in the city are above grade , and being ditlereitt distances above they arc quite irregular. The builders nnd property holders either fail or refuse to put their walks down to grade for the reason that they M'O AI'IIAIII Of lir.INf ! VLOODlil ) by water from the streets. The streets are nil from four to twelve inches above > ; rado , and to require the sidewalks to bo put to gr < de ut t'lic risk of ovcitlow , is not always the proper thing to do , and I have not been in favor of enforcing the oidinanco to the letter in this re gard.But But when the streets arc put to grade and paved this objection willnot exist. exist.What What I have seen on my trip has convinced mo that the city should o'wn a steam road roller , that the stability of any pavoinont depends to a very great extent on the compaotiwsss of the underlying soil , n compactness which can only bo obtained by rolling und that in the construction of tirst- class Macadam pavement the roller is indispensable , I would suggest that inasmuch us the ordinances require adjacent property owners to pay the entire expense of paving the streets the city cannot do loss than furnish the roller and do the rolling. I think the clerk should bo in- structed TO ADVERTISE IMMEDIATELY for at least ono mile of granite or Medina sandstone block pavement and two miles of cudar block pavement ac cording to the specilications which I shall 1 prepare immediately.
