It nas been previously announced I ^

that the council would receive plans for the improvement of Seminary St ot its meeting Tuesday night, but the plans failed to materialize. Die reason is that, although the councilmen had agreed upon a concrete pavement, they now are undecided and may use some other material, recommended by the engineer, which now is in use in Indianapolis, will be investigated by tie council members. Two councilman and two Seminary street residents will go to ImLanapoi.s soon to investigate the paving mater
