attractive spot in the shape of a pubpark. It will be here that during the summer months tired humanity may enjoy the salubrious breezes and gaze upon that vast expanse of water Lake Michigan. This tract, consisting of twenty-two acres, was purchased for the sum of $75,000. After much acrimonious discriminations and recrimintalk of bribery and the usual waste of what passes with them for gray matter, in addition to about $1,of the people's money for plans and specifications, which are likely never to be used, the astute board of aldermen have "resolved" to draw up plans and specifications out of their own heads.

Whatever the result may be they will when asked what plans had been made put about $25,000 in circulation during by his association this season, replied the summer. The contracts for sewers that they had no appropriations for

and water pipes has already been let, and the concrete building, black dirt, etc., will probably come along with the course of the summer. There has been some talk of a filtering plant for the water supply, and although many are in favor of going ahead with such a work immediately, there is small chance of anything bedone this year. The city council, which unfortuncannot attend to more than one thing at a time, promises to start on the paving question as soon as the park matter has been settled. Fischrupp avenue is to be paved with brick, as is also One Hundred and Seventeenth street to White Oak and White Oak to the Lake Front Park. There will in all probability be other streets apply for the same kind of pavement. White Oak avenue will undoubtedly be taken up as this end, beginning at One Hunand Nineteenth street, needs pavbadly. The real estate dealers of this city are very optimistic. There will be considerable building done this year, the most important to date being the erection of a new technical high school and also the Sacred Heart edifice. The new high school will be on Olivstreet, between the manual training school and the public library, on a tract of six lots, which were purchased at the cost of $5,400. The structure, which will cost about $60,000, will be two-story and basebrick and terra cotta, of the diof 184 by 123 feet. The building will be strictly up to date in every way. The specifications are alin the hands of the contractors, and the bids will be opened early this month. If the cost comes within the limit of the appropriation, work will commence at once. The first floor of the present manual training school will be used for a gymThere will be about 8,000 square feet of floor space. The floor will be lowered about four feet and when the necessary equipment is seit will make a "gym" as fine as any school could desire. The Sacred Heart congregation will also commence their new church, on Central avenue, this season. The plans for three commodious brick buildings are about completed, and it is proposed A
