of Jmlit North Street colored boys
who Thursday -afternoon tied the
wheel mi a dismaatkd ' roller skate
onto a Muscovy duck's feet The cf
ect was eaceedingiy ridiculous. Tbl
clumsy fowl's gait was a source of
amusemeat te a score of little dark
ies and pickaninnies who followed the
protesting dack through the street.
The duck was not a successful skat
er, but insisted upon making the best
of things, with ludicrous results. .

Many contractors will submit bids
to be opened by City Council on the
afternoon of Tuesday," March 23, for
the sewerage and paving extensions
to be .made out of the $300,000 voted'
hi bonds by the people last June. Gil
bert White, the engineer in charge,
is advertising extensively. Mr, White
if expected ibere daily in connection
with the work which "will; be com-
menced in April He expects- to aug-'
npeut tht present sewerage system so
extensively that not house within.
the corporate limits will be out of
easy range of a main' or lateral, ac
cording to the ; municipal ' officials.
Sidewalks as stated before in The
Free Press, will be given the next
consideration, and after them Toad-
way paving, leaving enough out of the
money, of course, to increase the pres
ent equipment of the electric light
plsnt,' which will be converted into a
triple-unit instead of a single plant
The sidewalks will probably be of
width enough for two or three peo
ple to walk abreast That is the pop
ular idea for sidewalk construction in
the residence sections of nearly all
cities now) The sewerage extensions
will be made to conform precisely
with the present system, which was
jnstalUd by Mr. White, who is prob
ably more familUr with the system
than anyone else. The electrie light
equipment will be furnished by one
of the big manufacturers of New Jer
sey or Pennsylvania probably, and
will be installed under the supervision'
of .experts. The plant, at some sea
sons now almost overloaded, will be
adequate for many years to ' come
with the additional machinery.
