As soon as the work on this track is completed, the side track to the turntable and the short tracks from that to the round house will be constructed. The railroad authorities are also having a good piece of work done on the cart- rwaysoftho street on 'each side of the track from Hancock street down. It is being covered deeply with shell . marl taken trom a bed through which, tbe road passes near Polloksville. This, os it packs down will make ti e street hard and durable. V.
