PUBLIC WORKS.
THE INSPECTION MADE YESTER.
DAY BY THE BOARD.
A Number of Defects to be Remedied
Figueroa Street to be Graded at Once
Other Matters.

The board of public works party of in.
spection yesterday consisted of Council
men Innes, Rees, Rhodes and McGarry,
with Deputy Street Superintendent
Brown and City Engineer Dockweiler.
DR.. MacGowan, the health officer, had
reported that Ord street, between New
High and Main streets, should be paved.
On inspection the place was found to be
in such condition that the board decided
to recommend that it be Immediately
paved.
The next matter looked at was at the
corner Of Bellevue and Beaudry avenues.
In the vicinity of the Sisters hospital,
perennial stream flows, coming from
the hills near by. The board will rec
ommend the construction of box cul-
vert, so as to discharge the water into a
sewer on Temple street.
The people on The hills have expended
great deal of money in grading their
streets and making improvements, but
in some. instances the street intersec-
tions have not been properly put in. The
worst places are at the intersection of
Edgeware road and Bellevue avenue,
Ionia and Figueroa streets, and Temple
and Figueroa streets. At all of these
points it was decided to recommend
that the street superintendent make the
necessary changes.
Residents on Temple street, west of
Pearl, had in petition that all the gut
ters on that street be put in proper re-
pair.
1t had been reported to the board
that the pipe which carried the zanja
water at the crossing of Figueroa and
Eighteenth streets was too small, and
that during rains the zanjero shuts the
water gate, and the sidewalks are
covered with mud, and the thorough
fare is thus rendered impossible for
pedestrians except at great personal in
convenience and some danger.
Although Figueroa street is one of the
handsomest residence streets IN the
city, it has never been graded. The
sidewalks have been laid throughout
the length of the street, but in some
places they are three feet below the
center of the street. The thoroughfare
is in a lamentable condition through
out its entire length, and as it
would simply be waste of money to at
tempt to repair the street by sections, the
board will recommend that Figueroa
street, from Sixth to Jefferson, through
out its entire length, be graded.
The sewer at the intersection of Grand
avenue and Jefferson street, which
caved in during the recent rains, was
inspected, and the board returned to the
city hall.
The regular meeting of the board will
be held at 10 O'Clock this morning, when
the various recommendations will be
put in shape for presentation to the
council.

The Famous Clemenceau Case at
Last.
Well. Los Angeles has seen the much
criticised Clemenceau Case-that is, a
very large part of the male portion of
the people, with a few Of the female Sec

the theater, with a few women inter-
spersed, were at the Los Angeles last
night, fully primed by what they had
ribly indecent. They came they saw,
and they were duly disappointed. There
ls no nse talking, facts are facts, and
only eyes and ears are usually to be
trusted. There is nothing in the play
half so suggestive as parts OF Camille,

Tipping Is Economical to Diners.


Systematic tipping Of walters pays. A
tip here and there by the occasional pa
tron of restaurants is simply generosity.
The regular tipping of one waiter at one
restaurant, however, is great economy.
When the, waiter is sure of the tip the
service is much better, and there are
possibilities in an a la carte order which
only the well trained and well tipped
waiter knows.
Go to your regular restaurant with a
friend, and if your purse is small order
a one portion dinner. There will be a
few extra oysters, a larger tureen of soup.
the roast will be in two generous slices,
just enough for two throughout. Now
give your waiter a double tip, and the
next time you ask friend to dinner you
will be treated like lords.-New York

Love Laughs at Zero.

~ AOVo A<HuS0S ~ Zero
I blew across the Brooklyn bridge one
night and wondered at my own temer-
ity.
In those breezy spaces it was as cold
as mans ingratitude. It seemed to me
as if my spine were the tube Of a
thermometer, and that the pith and
marrow thereof was a very frozen mer-
curry. I marked time at the double
quick, let me tell you, in an attempt to
get away from my chills, and decided
that aerial promenades were far more
seasonable in June than in December.
In the dark recesses of the New York
pier I beheld them sitting in corner.
She was very dear to him apparent
ly, for he held her closer than a fapjack
to an ungreased griddle, and surmised
that masculine propinquity was very
much to her taste also from the way she
cuddled and snuggled and rubbed her
red lips against his mustaches. The
wind curled and swirled around them,
but did not appear to touch them, and
they were SO warm and comfortable in
their corner that they almost seemed
to radiate the heat, and was tempted
to stop and warm my hands at them.
II never see the like" said the gray
coated defender of the bridge, stamping
his feet to keep them warm. "It don't
make no odds how bad the night, they're
always here from to II. They seem 80
pleased and comfortable like that hain't
the heart to tell them to move on. In
fact, it kinder seems to take the chill off
to watch 'em. But how they keep so
warm is mystery to me- All, love,
love, yer as queer as Boston beans.

CHEMISTRY OF THE SUN.
Elements Familiar in the Earth
Thought to be Absent.

Elements Familiar in the Earth
Thought to be Absent.
From the Youths Companion.
In connection wish the photography Of tho
solar spectrum considerable advances have
been made in the recognition of the chem
ical elements present In the sun. Copper,
silver and vanadium have been transferred
from the list of the doubtful metals there to
the certain; and very recently Rowland
has found clear evidence Of the presence OF
silicon, the apparent absence Of which has
been long standing puzzle.
The evidence in favor of the presence of
carbon also seems 10 gain strength. and the
same Is true in the case Of aluminium, cad
MUM and zinc. The fact that the limos
which reveal the presence OF silicon are al
most entirely in the ultraviolet, invisible
portion OF the spectrum, warrants the ex-
pectation that photography may soon find
there evidence OF some OF the other still
missing elements, such as boron, phosphorus
and sulphur.
But no light yet appears in reference to
the mysterious absence from the sun of
oxygen, nitrogen and chlorine, which play
SO important part in the chemistry OF the
earth; except, indeed, that the result OBJ
tanned by Jansen last summer on the sum-
NIT of Mount Blanc are conclusive that the
STedb ID iluo Va oxygen, WHICH 40 80 COn-
spicuous In the solar spectrum when the sun
is near the horizon, is entirely OF earthly
origin, aud not in the least solar.
The veteran astronomer, still enthusiastic
and full of pluck, though unable to endure
any severe physical exertion. had himself
carried by small army OF guides and por-
ters to the very summit of tho mountain,
and there obtained decisive observations.
As regards the 'photosphere"-the lumi-
nous surface of the sun-end sun spots there
is little new at note. Jansen, at Mendon,
has made real improvements in the pro-
cesses of photographing the spots and the
details of the solar surface, and recent OBJ
servations Of this displacement of the lines
Of the spectrum at the eastern and western
edges Of the sun, made by Duner of Upsala,
have confirmed the laws of the SUMS
swifter rotation at the equator-a law
which, though first discovered more than
thirty years ago. has recently been called in
question.
II still remains as much mystery as ever
how the great cavities which we see as spots
come to be formed in the suns surface. why
they are so limited TO the two zones on each
side of the suns equator, and why they
show such a regular increase and decrease
in numbers every eleven years.

Mr.. and Mrs. J. p. Williams left last night

The board OF trustees, of which Mr..
Williams is a member, will hold an import

of applied mathematics and a chair of his
tory will probably be established, and there
are several professors to be elected Presi-
dent Gambler will report the compilation of
the 100000 endowment fund Of the
college. 1t is expected that this
will be increased to $3.50, 900 by the sub
scription OF a wealthy member OF the Meth

given to the public
President Gambler may bring before the
board the question of inaugurating a fund
for the erection OF building to be used as
conservatory Of music, which will be con-

conservatory will be open to both

There is no similar institution Of this kind

less be largely patronized. Numbers or
southern girls now go north annually to at

there are doubtless hundreds who would be

THE HOTTEST DAY YET.

Mercury Goes to o5o and Probably
Good Deal Higher.
Yesterday was the hottest day yet. The
thermometer went to 95S at the signal sta
ton, which doubtless must be in a cool
place, as the thermometers over the town
generally registered several degrees higher
Pedestrians doubtless thought it was about
1859, and perhaps 1t was.
There was a strong breeze all day, how
ever, and the heat was not nearly SO op-
pressive as it otherwise would have been.
The Forest City Gun Club shot all day long
in the sun and did not seem to mind the
heat at ALL
1t must have been extremely hot in the
interior OF this district, though, where they
had no sea-breeze to temper the heat. The
average maximum temperature for the dis
trict was 1907. The stations repor ted as fol-
lows: Alapaha go, Albany 1O0e, Americus
1o4'. Bainbridge 9S', Cordele 100, East
man 1O4s. Fort Gaines 9So, Gaines
vile 1909. Millen 1922, Quitman 1O2',
Townsville 1929, Savannah 95'. The next
hottest district in the south was Mobile,
which had an average maximum tempera-
ture OF 9S', with Augusta, Memphis and
MONTGOMERY following with &c.
June has started in warm, and will, doubt
less, be hot mouth. 1t Is usually the hot
Test month in the year in Savannah.
