The meeting was an adjourned one,
When the two committees met with the
Board two or three weeks ago, having
been called together in accordance with
the provisions OF the restraining ordin-
ance to prepare an estimate Of the
amount necessary to do the work con-
templated in their departments this year,
the Board was not In position to give
the committeeman figure upon which
TO base estimates, An adjournment was
had therefore, to such a time as the
Board should be prepared with figures.
Since then the Board has been en-.

by that body to the Board, and picking |
out those deserving Of consideration.

TOTAL ,0G6 10
Brick paving was estimated at 81 35
per square yard; cobble paving at 90
cents per square yard; curbing at 45
cents per lineal foot; resetting curb, II
cents per foot; gravel, 90 cents per cubic
yard masonry for face walls and sewer
outlets, 50 per cubic yard; masonry for
wing walls, A per cubic yard.
In addition TO all this there is the
paving OF Market street with brick from
Tenth street TO the Market street bridge,
an improvement that was contracted for
last year, but which ought never to be
done until q new sewer Is laid in the
street, for which there Is no estimate
made In the above.
Mr.. Brandfass was called on 10 preside
over the joint meeting and Clerk Hanke
was ordered to read the estimate handed
In by the Board. He had scarcely gotten
started till Messrs. Harrell and Tracy
raised the point that II was all q waste
OF time as the estimate would eventually
be referred to the Finance Committee,
and by 1t reduced TO tatters before the
annual appropriation ordinance would
be drawn. Several OF the new members
protested against this, and after a short
Wrangle the reading was proceeded
with. .~,
As soon as It was concluded Mr.,
Kreiter jumped up and wanted To know
why no estimate had been made for the
paving with brick Of Twenty.ninth
street from Main 10 Chapline street, az

fered In Council. Mr.. Park stated that
the Board had not considered that work
at all necessary when compared with
other work, the need for which was
urgent. Mr.. Krieter was by no means
pleased with the Boards opinion. There
were other members neryously at work
with pencil and paper trying to calculate
how much more money one ward was
billed for than another, and ready 10
kick on the instant should they discover
that their ward was not we'll up at the
head. Enough Of tho old spirit Of "you
must spend Gs much money In my ward
as In any other" was shown last night Ia
demonstrate that there will be lively
times over the appropriation ordinance
before II is finally adopted.
II was resolved 10 forward tho esti.

their wives and daughters just before putting
out their lights in their humble cottages, 60 down
by the shore and in their clear, sweet voices sing
the first lines of the Ave Maria. Then they listen
eagerly, and across the sea are borne to them the
deep tones of those they love, singing the strains
that follow, and thus each knows that all is WELL
l often think that from the hone-life of the ma
ton, from its mothers and sisters, daughters and
sweethearts, there sound through the darkness of
this transition age the tender notes Of dearer
song, whose burden is being taken up and echoed
back to us from those far out amid the pillows
of temptation, and its sacred words are "Home
Sweet Home!" God grant that deeper and

perhaps can boast more brilliant and successful
career than Mrs. Frank Leslie She is woman
Of varied accomplishments and singular fascina-
tions. Her life since the death of her husband
has been one series of brilliant successes, which
have won for her the title of "Queen' among
women journalists, and as fnancier she is justly
regarded as phenomenon among women. Mrs.
Leslie INDUCES her French taste for silk gowns,
and rarely appears in cloth, but in accordance
with VOW made at the death of Mr.. Leslie, never
to dance or wear color during her life, her rich
and costly attire is invariably the same sombre
black. She admits that by nature she is not de-
signed for domestic details, and laughingly de-
clares she ''would rather regulate one hundred
men than two Irish servant girls.
