A Fine New Bridge Takes the Burned
Ones Place.
The work of replacing the railroad
bridge short distance the other side of
Davisville, which was burned several
weeks ago, is now progressing rapidly.
Two immense pile drivers and large
force of men, under the direction of Build
ing Superintendent Comstock, are on the
ground. Most of the piers are now in po-
sition and the spans are being stretched
across them. 1t is expected that the bridge
will be ready to recsive trains by the end
of this week.
Most of the work is done at the Oakland
shops, and the bridge is being brought up
in sections on flat cars.
There is no interference with the regular
trains, though, as a temporary track has
been laid around the scene of the fire.

MUNICIPAL MATTERS.
CLAIMS ALLOWED FOR A CONTRACT
OR's WORK ON AN AVENUE
No Action Taken In Regard to Appoint
ing Additional Water Rates Col
lectors-Street Work.

At its session yesterday the City Board
of Trustees granted permission to Mrs. n.
G. Scott to raise her house at ILL Fifth
street and place beneath it a b-ick founda-
ton five feet high. It was decided that the
fire limit ordinance would not be violated
by such work.
is AN "AvENUE" STREET?
a demand from A. L. Rosa for 1920
against the city, as one-fourth of the cost of
improving the alley between Fifth and
Sixth, J and K streets, was objected TO by
the Mayor, who said that, in his opinion,
the "avenue" was not g street.
The roll was called. and Trustees Nc
Laughlin and Wolf voted to pay the bill,
holding that the so-called avenue from
Fifth to Eighth street, between ] and K
should be classed as a street, as it was 90
feet wider than the ordinary alleys.
WORK ON STREETS AND ALLEYS.
The contract for paving the alley be.
tween Front and Second, J and ( streets,
was awarded to Silva & Rosa.
Resolutions were passed ordering Elev-
enth street, from II to |, and N street from
Twenty-ninth TO Thirtieth, graded and
graveled.
Trustee Wolf reported that the sidewalks
in front of lot s, in the block bounded by
Fifteenth and Sixteenth, d and E streets,
and also in front of lot s, in the block on
the west side, were in bad condition. The
matter was referred to the Street Commits
sioner.
POOR sPRINKLING SERVICE.
The Mayor reported that the street
sprinkling for the past week had not been
done properly, and Trustee Mclaughlin
said he would look into the matter.
PERENNIAL SUBJECT.
Trustee Mclaughlin brought up the
matter of appointing two. extra clerks for
the Water Works, and asked for the Mayors
views.
The latter stated that he would oppose
any such additional help being engaged
The collections this year up to date were
more than last years receipts for the same
time, and he thought the present force was
doing very well.
Trustee Wolf said he believed additional
help was necessary, and he favored Mr. Nc.
Laughlin's resolution.
The Mayor favored the idea of appointing
one extra man and imposing upon him and
the present deputy the double duty of act
ing as Water Inspector and Collector. No
action was taken, however.
VISIT FROM AN OLD OFFICIAL.
Judge Demas Strong, the first President
of the first Common Council of Sacramento,
who, upon the death of Mayor Bigelow, be-
came acting Mayor of the city, paid a visit
to the Board during its session.
The members Of the Board had a pleas
ant chat with Mr.. Strong, who recited sew
eral incidents that happened when he was
an official of the city, and commented upon
the growth of the town since his absence.
The Board adjourned after allowing
number of bills.

One Lean Y.ar on.

The following explanations, says an e.c
change. will show why the year 1900 viii
not be counted among leap years: 9TH.
year is 1896 days, s hours and 40 minute,
long; ii minutes are taken every year tC
make the year 1861 days long. and every
fourth year we have an extra day. Thi.
was Julius Caesars arrangement. You
may ask, where do the Il minutes come
fromr" They come from the future. an
are paid by emitting leap year every 1O1
years. But If leap year is omitted repu
larry every Tooth year. In the course OF
400 years 1t Is found that the IL minute
taken each year viii not only have been
paid back, but that whole day will have
been given up. SO Pope Gregory XIII
who improved on Cesar's calendar In
1882. decreed that every cenuturisl yea
divisible by four should be leap year af,e-
all. so we borrow IL minutes each yea,
more than paying our borrowings back by
emitting three leap years in three cen,
turial years. and square matters by haly.
Ing leap year In the fourth centuria
year. Pope Gregory's arrangement is sc
exact and the borrowing and paying back
balanced so nicely. that we borrow more
than we pay to the extent OF only one
