While everyone wished the roads leading to the city to be in good condition and all would like to see Brompton Hoad a beautiful driveway, the first need was for tidy streets within the city.Auboists enjoyed the speedways, but the citizens enjoyed good streets, and instead of spending the citizens\u2019 money for autoists on the Brompton Road, Mrs.Jenckes submitted it should first be used for the benefit of all the citizens.WHAT ABOUT MONTREAL STREET?Mrs.Jenckes referred to the sum of money voted some time ago by he council to make Montreal Street nto a boulevard.Nothing had yet seen done.Why?The ladles of '.herbrooke would like that street to ic.put in good condition so that hey could be proud of It.The speak-:r asked the aldermen if there was one residential street they were proud of.Of course when the sidewalks were built on King St.that would be a good street, but it was a iiisiness street.The residential streets needed most attention.She would like to see the streets lined w ith a cord and an ^edging tool used, such as was done at exhibition time.They looked very nice then, but why not begin in May and do it again -ic July and September?Another question Mrs.Jenckes asked was \u201cHas one citizen on one street a right to park his automotftle and spoil the line of grass for the rest of the people on that street such as happened on Dominion Avenue and Montreal Street\u201d?If so, why not go to Quebec and get the charter amended to prevent it?She also called attention of the south end of Queen St.which a little expenditure would rectify.Plenty of men who wanted work and could not go to war could be given occupation in this way.Nature had made Sher-ladies of Sherbrooke did not like to see it disfigured.Aid.Jenckes was sure tbe Road | Committee would give consideration to all the matters submitted by the ladies in due time.MAYOR PLEASED AT OF LADIES.INTEREST (be Fleury and Vaux roads, on the right bank of the Meuse, in the Vrr-di-n sector, last night, says the War Of.,re statement to day.On the Somme front, the French artillery was very active nt Belloy, Fstrier and Lihons.Elsewhere the night was calm.FURTI l HR RFVKRSKS TO AUSTRIANS ON ISON'/O FRONT words, Austrians, contracting the circle about Lemberg, are withdrawing to a line between fhe Carpathians and the Pinsk marshes, the [shorter length of which will compensate them in sonic ir»?asure for the tremendous losses they have suffered since the beginning of the Russian advance.Military critics look for their eventful withdrawal to (he line of Kemionka, Lemberg, Mikolayoff and jst.ryj as their logical line of defence, j The surrender of Mariampol by the | Austrians has enabled General Letch-iitzky to straighten the front of his advance toward Halicz, this now Ottawa, Aug.15.\u2014Fifty members of the Princess Patricia's Regiment are still fighting, accord- ; ing to the statement of Sergt.- j Major Samuel l atterson, D.C.M., who, wifii Serjpcant Major J.McKay, also an original \"-Pat,\u201d is in the Capital.Sergeant-Major Patterson stated that the Princess Patricias are now being replenished through reserves' from other battalions.Over five thousand men have now been attach ed to the battalion since the first of [ the war.There are about fifty of the original men still fighting.The Universities' Company system has been discontinued.Sergt.-Major McKay is badly wounded about, the legs nnd back, cally dropped all other business in an effort to prevent what threatened, and still threatens, to be the greatest industrial battle in the history of the country.He worked all day to bring original | the two sides together, and messengers are moving constantly from the New Willard Hotel, where the railroad men are in eonference, to White House.Month oi iulyFrom The Eastern Townships oils day \u2018\u201cnurd longer than the previ- The Mayor said that the council had listened with great interest and pleasure to the suggestions made by (Continued on Page 4) steamer teti REPORTED SUNK -, j i I lOndon, Aiigust tr*.\u2014 i \u2022 ell ~< m the Carso Plateau and [ to I be I-I'd of (lorizla, along the 1 ; n f- ¦! , Hie Austrians have snf 'ei inrlQ-r reverses at the bands of p it dp,mm, to-day's official state insni \u2022 , -s, Austrian entrenchments in both sections were captured.forming an almost direct east and wrd line only seven miles from that i having been Injured in the first St.town al the nearest approach.\t!
