Why LACE IS CosTLY.-Many people
wonder why what is termed real lace
as lace made by hand is called, to distin,
guish At from that made by machine,
which is called imitation--is SO costly.
The following paragraph from foreign
exchange explains the reason:
The manufacture of lace is carried to
Its highest perfection in Belgium. The
finest specimen OF Brussels lace is SO
complicated us to require the labor of
seven persons on one piece, and each OPP
eratice is employed at di: tinct figures IF
the work. The thread used is OF exquis
ire hneness, which is spun in dark uu
dereround rooms where it is sufficiently
moist to prevent the thread from separa-
ting. 1t is so delicate rs scarcely to be
seen, and the room so arranged that all
the light admitted shall fall upon the
work. 1t is such material that renders
the genuine Brussels ground SO costly

inches wide. from two to three hundred
bodkIns are sUnetimes used, and for the
larger width many as eight hundred,

The Mayor, in putting the question of the
final passage Of the ordinance, said while he
cOncurred in this as an estimate of the neces
sary expenses of the city, and it was worth
his advice and concurrence, it had been
adopted, and he would have liked some points
to have been discussed before passage. At
the suggestion, however, of some members
of the Council that discussion at this stage
might involve the city in legal complica-
tons, it was thought proper to adopt the
ordinance as an estimate, and that was all it
was. The explanation accompanying the
ordinance was a>pretty full one. He pro-
posed. with the permission of the Council,
to discuss the whole question more at
length when the question Of fixing licenses
and taxation came up.
The yeas and nays were called and the
ordinance was adopted.
On motion of Mr.. Shaw, it was ordered
that the ordinance be published tho ten
days required by law.

New Member.
Mr.. Pierce, under suspension Of the
rules, stated that Mr.. James Lewis was
prcsent with credentials that seemed to en-
title him to seat in the Council as Admin
istrator of Police. He moved that a COM
mittee of two be appointed to examine DR.
Lewis credentials.
The Mayor named Administrators Shaw
and West the committee, who, after ex-
amining the credentials, reported that Mr..
james Lewis was entitled to seat in the
Council as Administrator Of Police.
Mr.. Lewis then took his seat, and his ere
dentials were ordered to be filed among the
proceedings Of the Council.
The Budget.
Mr.. Shaw said, as the rules were sus-

The accompanying ordinance being about
to be read, Mr.. West suggested that mas

cept the newly elected Administrator of Po-

this question in committee, and unless Mr..
Lewis objected, he would move that the
reading be dispensed with
Mr.. Lewis not Directing, the reading OF
the estimate was dispensed with. 1t was as

on the future, it is only fair that such facts
as relieve the picture, and are due to the
administrators Of the several departments
should be mentioned. Had the administra-
/, ton been able to start with the power Of
funding all the past debt, and applying
their energies and the resources Of the city
to the current and future. there would be
no deficiency of accounts. and no need of
special taxation above the one and three
