the borough council of South Wa
verly was held in the borough
building last night, with the follow
ing councilmen present ©: Messrs
Quick, Sinsabaugh, Murphy, Mc-
Craney, Welch, Stephens and Gates.
The matter of a sidewalk on
Howard street that is in need of
repairs was referred to the street
committee.
An imporniant matter was the
passage of an ordinance providing
for a renewal of the coatract with
the local electric light company
for lighting the streets of the bor
ough for five years, the agreement
to be effective from April 1, 1906,
The ordinance was adopted section
by section and then as a whole.
Pleasant street was the subject of
considerable discussion. This
one of the prettiest streets in the
valley during daylight, but, as a
citizen averred, it is dark as Egypt
when the shades of night have fal-
len. The trouble is due to the
overhanging branches of shade
trees and the lack of suitable light-
ing arrangements along that thor-
oughfare. The street committee
was instructed to look after matters
there.
Grade was asked along Pennsyl-
vania avenue adjoining the high
school building, and the borough
engineer will deliver the goods in
this case. The school directors
wish to lay a cement walk for
which E D. Ademy has the con
tract.
Grade was also ordered given
Mr. Merrill for a sidewalk in front
of his property.
A request was presented from |
H. Murray for a crosswalk over
Bradford street at the cast side of
its intersection with Pennsylvania
avenue. Mr. Murray offered to
furnish the sand and gravel free in
case the council should decide to
lay a cement walk. The request
was referred to the street com-
mittee,
Superintendent W. E. Case, on
behalf of the trolley company,
stated that about a year ago the
company he represents had depos-
ited with the borough authorities a
certified check for $1,000 as an
evidence of good faith in the con-
struction of the South Waverly
trolley line. The road had been
completed and was in successful
operation, so he asked that the
check be returned to his company
The council voted unanimously to
do so.

The street committee was em-
powered to attend to an application

Chief of Police P. Ragan pre-
sented the police report for May,
which showed two arrests and the
imposition and collection of $4 in
fines and costs. Of this amount
£1.50 as fines will be turned over to
the borough.
Complaint was made to the coun-
cil relative to the crowded condi
tion of Fulton street at late hours
of the night. It was stated that
men and women often congregate
there in the evening in such num-
bers and conduct themselves in
such manner that South Waverly
citizens who sought to pass along
the street were subjected to annoy- |
ance. The district where the |
trouble exists is across the state!
line and no action could be taken : |
but the president of the council |
was directed to confer with the |
authorities of Waverly village and
make arrangements for abating the |
nuisance, |

PLAN TO INPROVE
BOROUGH STREETS
Excellent Suggestion Which!
Should be Given More Than |
Passing Notice
A well known business man who |
has the interests of the borough at
heart suggested a plan this morn-
ing whereby the condition of the
streets in Sayre can be materially
improved with but little trouble
and practically no expense, At the
present time the council appropn-
ates the sum of $1,500 per year
for street purposes, and this
amount 1s confessedly small when
it is taken into consideration that
there are 28 miles of thoroughfares
in the borough to care for and
keep in passable condition. Street |
Commussioner Fields handles this]
amount judiciously and econour|
ically, and makes an excellent]
showing with the amount at his
command Notwithstanding this, |
however, in many parts of the]
borough stones accumulate in the |
street, making travel anything but]
a pleasant occupation. The sug-
gestion made by the business man |
is that each property owner be re-
quested to remove the stones from
the street immediately in front of
his residence or property at least
once a month. If every property
owner would do this the condition
of the streets would be matérially |
improved and persons who ride!
about in vehicles of any descrip- |
tion would greatly appreciate it
