Pouajlaa and Ih.l from Seventeenth to Thirteenth. East of Thirteenth It In proposed to use incandc scents to illuminate the alleys. "Husiii.'s.s men with whom 1 have tulked agree with me that It would be profitable and dt-slrable In every way to light up the downtown dlwtriet Just as much aa we can and give It an air of vivacity and life." says the city electrician. "With better llghtlnjr more pcoplo will come downtown of an evening and guests will comparo tho appearances of the town at night favorably with other cities." "I favor iron poles as opposed to Inter section suspension, provided we can get the Intermediate lights." says the acting mayor. "The electrician declares that with arc lamps supplied by an alternating cur rent, the closer the lamps are placed toward the ground the more light Is ob tained. There is every reason why we should light up our downtown ditrtct properly. With lamps every half block the alleys will be Illuminated, because there will be a lamp at each end. I should like very much to know whether the peo ple of the city favor putting from twenty to thirty arc lumps downtown to obtain the objects st.ited, or If they prefer to have the outlying parts of town belter lighted." NICHOLSON ON NEW WARDS Member from the Fourth Has au Out line for Action In Heills trlcllng; the City. Regarding the redisricting the city Into twelve wards which the council muitt do before June 1, Councilman Nicholson of the Fourth ward ys: "I am In favor of having the councilman get together n this proposition and settle It immediately. My idea Is that !t would be much better to run tho lines on a territorial basis rather than by population, so as to make It more convenient fur voters in sparssiy settled districts to get to the polling plaeta. I think the Tenth ward should be created by cutting off the north parts of the Fifth and B.xth wards; the Eleventh ward by cutting off the west parts of th) Ninth and Seventh wards, and the Twelfth ward . hy taking the eouth parts of the First and Seeona wards, leaving the Third and Fourth wards, which are compact and well bottled. Intact." the city officials kicked back on the propo sition to have the Juveniio detention quar ters In the city hall. Judgo Day, discussing the matter, said: "L'nfortunately the law creating the Juve nile court Is somewhat lame as to pro viding quarters for the placing and care of the boys and girls who come to the court and may have to be held or com mitted temporarily. The want of a suitable place is a deplorable handicap on the work of the court, but Just at present there does not seem to be any way to get around it."

Since Commissioner Brunlng has begun to agitate the installing of an elevator in the county court house and has been getting estimates of cost the matter of remodeling or rebuilding he county build ing has become a live aubject among the officials of tho county. One suggestion Is that the tower or dome be removed and an additional atory be built on, with a finish that will retain and accentuate the classic lines of the build ing. The solid foundation In the center of ths building supporting the ower Is the great obstacle to the Installing of an ele vator. If the tower should be removed It would allow of the tearing out of this foundation and make easy the building of a tunnel In from the streets to the elevator In the center.
