Works was held last evening, at which
DR.. L. G. Myers, OF the Island, elected
member OF the Board by Council NJ its
meeting last Tuesday evening, vice
President William Myles, resigned, was
sworn in. A joint bond was then pre-
pared and signed by the three members
OF the Board, who then organized by
electing Mr.. ]. X. Butts President.
At the last meeting OF the Board the
contract for rebuilding the Chapline
and Eof street bridges over Caldwell's
Run was awarded to Absalom Beal at
his bid Of sos. This was regarded as a
very low figure, and the Board was de-
lighted over the prospect OF having the
work done so cheaply. 1t turned out to
be too low, however, and Beal, after bet
ter understanding what was to be re-
quired OF him, refused to sign the con-
trac: and bond. New bids were then
obtained, and at last nights meeting
the contract for rebuilding the Eoil
street bridge was let TO Klieyes, KRAFT 4
Co., at their bid OF about $500. Moth
ing was done. about the Chapline street
bridge, us the Board first desires to as
certain how much money it will have
with which to do that work. The Eoff
street bridge will be but n temporary
atIair, designed to stand three or four
years, or until such time as the matter

litigation the city is in with the heirs Of

There will be special meeting OF the
Arion Society hold this evening at the
SOciety's club house on the South Side,
at which IN important matter will be
considered. II will be remembered that
last season there was something pub
ifshed regarding a proposed addition to
and remodeling Of the club house. The
Society has been so popular that it has
grown too large for the house to accom-.
modate on the occasion Of a general
turnout, and the need OF more room has
frequently been felt. Plans have been
prepared for an addition to and re-
modelling Of the building that will en-
tail cost OF about s., 900, and produce
one Of the most complete houses for So
cial purposes imaginable. The meeting
to be held this evening is called for the
purpose OF taking action on these plans.
II they, or others, are adopted the soci-
ETY. will have to increase its membership
somewhat-or rather issue more stock,
in order to be in a condition financially
TO make the improvement. The plans
that have been submitted contemplate a
larger assembly hall, billiard room,
bowling alley and other convenient
rooms, the need OF which is now felt.
