NEW LOCATION LINCOLN STATUE. 



The sewerage system was enlarged, and the Third Street 

 Entrance, which in the past has been a source of annoyance in 

 rainy weather because of its lack of drainage, was regraded and 

 connected with the Ninth avenue sewer through the co-operation 

 of the City Works Department. 



The greenhouse plant has been enlarged during the year, and 

 the display of flowers has been more brilliant than ever before. 

 The tulip and hyacinth exhibition in the spring and the fall exhi- 

 bition of chrysanthemums elicited universal admiration and 

 praise.
