Above all, be merry, and you surely will be if you dine at Raub's Famous Nevins Street Restaurant, for Mr. Herman Raub personally buys and selects everything that his patrons purchase. He knows the "dining-out" public better than any Restaurateur, and knows their wants in Brooklyn.

CEMETERIES BLOCK OPENING OF STREETS City Will Make Effort to Have Old Restrictions Removed. SPECIAL BILL MAY BE PASSED. There Are Many Thoroughfares That Board of Estimate Would Like to Have Extended. An effort is to be made by the Board of Estimate to have enacted at the coming session of the Legislature a law that would remove prohibition now imposed against the taking of cemetery lands for public use. These cemeteries in the Boroughs of Queens and Brooklyn take up large areas, and prevent the opening of streets through their territory, and the layout of a comprehensive and convenient street system for these boroughs.

Most of them are incorporated under rural cemetery acts, which is it misnomer. They ale very profitable investments to the promoters, who 111 some of the largest cemeteries hold thousands of lots tor sale at figures from ten to fifty times the original cost of the property, The owners have succeeded in having laws passed, not only preventing the city from taking any of their property, even where no bodies are buried. for the purpose of street openings, but from assessing uny of the cost of repairing, laying sidewalks and sewers or any other publie improvements fronting their property, although they are often the chief beneficiaries. It was said by the board that the passage of a general bill might be so bitterly contested by lot owners, under the apprehension that a large number of graves might be disturbed. Hence, the Corporation Counsel advised the board that any legislation sought along these lines should be of a special character, and directed to the particular streets and cemeteries affected.

In conformity with this suggestion, the president. of each of the boroughs was then requested to submit to the board on er before December 10 a list of streets which had been laid out or the position of which could be clearly fixed upon the city plan, which included within their lines cemetery land to which the Rural Cemetery Act related. The presidents of the boroughs of Manhattan and Richmond advise that none of the streets now laid out upon the city map within the limits of these boroughs are in any way affected by the prohibition now existing against the taking of cemetery land for street use. The lists of streets in the boroughs of Brooklyn, the Bronx and Queens which fall within the scope of the prohibition and which have been laid out across cemetery property, or the position of which is clearly. ludicated by maps heretofore adopted or about to be considered by the board, together with the cemetery which they border or traverse, are stated to be as follows: Borough of Brooklyn.
