long session was held nevertheless
The meeting hour comes rather late
sad the councilmen do not wait long
to begin business when once assem-

Bari Lboney was before the body
last night and suggested that the
council authorise the erection of two
water cranes for watering Austin
Avenue in order to preserve the
street, which on motion was referred
to the water and street committees
with power to act. v
A petition from the property own-
era along and adjacent to Chandler
street asked that this street be ex-
tended to connect with Congress Ave-
nue. Referred to the street committee
The sanitary committee was In-
structed to confer with the cjty at-
torney with reference to drafting an
ordinance compelling property own-
ers to get permits for constructing
cess pools and regulating same.
The Sanitary commissioner -sug-
gested that some attention lm riven
the blind alleys and'that weeds be
cut In the streets. These matter* were
referred to the street committee.
The manner In. which produce Is
handled by local merchants and ven-
dors was a matter that received care-
ful consideration and the sanitary
committee was instructed to confer
with the city attorney with regard to
drawing an ordinance covering same.

It was stated that while the name
of the purchasers could not be given
out. the contract was binding upon
them to take over and complete the
road when a legal transfer had I**®
made. These parties are well able fi-
nancially to construct the road and
put It in operation, therefore the ac-
tion of the stockholders in voting to
have not paid in their amounts will do
so at once. Those who have paid the
full amount of their subscriptions will
have the excess refunded to them be-
fore tile transfer is made. It Is the in-
tention of the directorate to pay for
the work done on an equal basis, and
to do this all will have to pay in the
three tenths of the amounts subscrib-
ed.
