In late years the brick of Cheapside has become pitted anil rough. On court days it is crowded with farmers and livestock and wagons loaded with produce—this once a month. On other days auto mobiles filled the places, parked at all angles For many months there have complaints of the unsightliness Cheapside and the apparent lack ¢ authority by the city police action was started in circuit court to force the city to “abate the nuisance.’ The circuit court ordered the ‘“‘nuis- ance’ abated But the court did not count on the county. Now the action has been revived through filing of a petition by the county declaring it alone has jurisdiction over this plot o1 ground, containing perhaps a quar- ter of an acre, in the heart of the city. What the result will told until the ecircunit acts and the court of appeals has its final say. But one thing is certain, the country folk are going to fight to the last ditch to retain their plot of ground in the city where they gather and sell their stock and talk politics One custom of Cheapside that has long.passed but of which James Lane Allen tells in his story was the set tling of physical encounters and drinking. Cf the latter, Mr. Allen says: “Another notable recreation of the day was the drinking Indeed the two pleasures went marvelously together The merchants kept barrels of whisked in their cellars for their customers Bottles of it sat openly on the counter.” e Day lwellers onee statue Jol forme pres liscnse ay.
