BOARD OF PUBLIC WORKS.
The Kentucky Street Railroads.

A petition for permission to improve the
west half of Burnet avenue, from Shillito
street to Donohue street. was referred to
the Committee of the First and Second
Districts.
A resolution that the Engineer be d.
rected tn prepare one or more plans and
specifications for bridge over Millcreek at
Harrison avenue was referred to the Com
mittee on Bridges.
BY the following it will be seen that the
Fountain will be brilliantly illuminated
Wednesday night:
Board OF Public Works:
"Gentlemen-I have been working among
some of the merchants on Fountain Square
in reference to the illumination. Please
see that the Fountain is in order and run
ming, SO that it can be lit up with colored
lights, etc. have met very hearty re-
spouse to my efforts and want to see the af-
fair success. WIN. L. ROBINSON"
The matter was referred to the Commit
tee on Parks and Fountains
The following was adopted:
"Resolved, That the declination of Chas.
A. Hoyt, as Application Clerk, be accepted.
and Mr.. Geo. Peterman be and he is hereby
appointed Application Clerk in the-Water
Works Department"
Anew ordinance governing the Kentucky
street railroads was presented by the City
solicitor and referred to the Committee on
Street Railroads For the past two or three
years there has been continued kicking
about the Kentucky street railroads not
paying any license to run on this side oi
the river.
The fault is not on the part Of the COM
panies, as they were always ready and
willing to pay license, bnt it seems to lay
on the Board of Council for several ordi-
nances that were drawn up for some reason
or other were never acted upon. Now lei
the Council pass the ordinance presented
to-day, and thus end the harping about
our neighbors, running street-cars on this
side without paving for the privilege.

Cruelty on Shinhoard

Yesterday Thomas Brown, an old seaman
who has twice served in the United States
navy and in the merchant service since he was
IA years of age, and Henry Newbold, also a
seaman, made complaint before United States
Commissioner Rand against Robert E. Martin,
first mate of the three-masted schooner Louise
A. Orr, lying at this port, for cruelty. Brown
complained that on the voyage of the vessel
from Philadelphia TO this port on March Goth,
Martin beat him shamefully about the head
with a Delaying pin. Newbold also complain
ed of excessive cruelty displayed towards him
self. Commissioner Rand placed warrant in
the hands of Deputy Marshal Townsend who,
upon investigation heard the mate had become
suspicious, packed his trunk and left the YES
sci in hack. Further investigation revealed
the fact that the hack was one driven by Amos
Meserve who does the court business. Meserve
was looked up and the same hack that carried
the mate bore the officer to Woodford's Corner
where Mr.. Martin arrested. brought be-
fore the Commissioner, pleaded guilty, and Or
dered to recognize in the sum Of $500 for his
appearance at the April term Of the Circuit
Court. In his efforts to escape the mate had
shaved off fine pair of wtiskers.

Many will recall their presentation of "Cin-
derella, cred Riding Hood" "Snow Flake"
and other dramas in City Hall some years ago.
They always had crowded houses. The baby
show, although different in character from any
of the above, will be attractive and we'll
worthy of patronage. This entertainment, as
described in yesterdays PRESS, is certainly
most novel. We have never heard of its be-
ing attempted anywhere else. The idea is an
admirable one, and has evidently been skill
fully worked up. Portland's loveliest babies
will be seen at their best, their charms magni-
fed. Go and see those babies. The tickets
are now for sale at Stockbridge's,
