Our New Possessions.
At this time of the year, when nnture
unfolds the beauties of the suburbs, it
l a pleasure to saunter out into the
new openings In West Scranton and
observe the many Improvements.
On the north side there Is West Pailt,
Tripp Park, Purr's Heights, Arlington
Heights und other new openings, where
many pretty homes have been erected
within a few years. Towards the
west, many new homes have been
erected along Washburn street, Acad
emy street and Division street.
The Washburn street cemetery and
the Cambria cemetery also show the
hand of the gardener, and new trees,
walks and drives have been made. On
the south there is the Hound Woods
tract and Lincoln Heights, where many
noticeable improvements have been
made.
Indications point to the paving nnd
repairing of .South Main avenue at an
early date, and the director of public
works gives assurance that other
streets will receive the proper attention.
It Is a noticeable fact that property
owners on many streets are responsible
for the wretched condition of gutters,
sidewalks and roadway In fropt of their
possessions.
Waste Paper Nuisance.
If there Is an ordinance prohibiting
the throwing of waste paper into the
streets, it ought to be rigidly enforced,
particularly on Main avenue, where so
much of U is left to be scattered broad
cast. Some merchants complain of this
nuisance while others are responsible
for it, and something ought to be done
by the authorities. In many cities
waste paper cans are pUced at inter
vals along the public streets, and em
ployes ot t! street cleaning depart
ment empty the cans on making their
rounds. Some such plan should be put
in force here.

Golden for fortv cents.
Golden was then arrested, and swore

some time and he could not chase him
