The monthly pay rolls of the several
departments were presented by the

to let them pass.
An ordinance authorizing the proper
city officials to negotiate certificates of
Indebtedness In the following amounts

CARPENTER PARK TAXES
Lett for the City to Settle-Breath-
ing Spot Matters.

The troubles over Carpenter park
have not ended, it seems. The matter
OF acquiring title to the site involved
an almost interminable controversy.
and that is not yet complete. But Just
as the park board began to breathe
more freely under the impression
that the business yet to be eff
tected Is of routine and perfume
tory character. it Is learned that
the taxes for 1891. amounting to 1865. IS,
haven't been paid, and that the city Is
liable for the same. At the meeting of
the board last evening a cOmmunica.
ton was received from the corporation
attorney advising the payment. and
this was accom- panied by resolution
ordering the city clerk to draw a war
rant OIL the city treasurer for the
amount. Commissioner Horton doubted
the eXpediency of such course. He
felt that the original owners ShOld clear
up the property, and upon his motion
the matter was referred to the commit
tee on finance to investigate.
George A. Theobald made a tender of
a forty-acre tract of land at the corner
of Alto and Fairview avenues for park
purposes. He wants $4,000, however
in consideration.
The SuperlntendentrepO the hope
full condition of filling Lake Como. and
he also reported that $4,000 plants from
the Como greenhouses and 4,S23 from
Mays have been set out in the parks
and along the boulevards. R. j. Reid
communicated that he had purchased a
fountain, and, it being too large for his
purpose, he desires to sell it to the
board. and the president was requested
to inspect it.
w. A. Van Slyke has offered to do
nate fountain for Van Siyke square,
and this, together with other contenl-
plated Improvements on the square,
were referred to the committee on trees,
shrubbery and flowers. The pay rolls
and monthly bills were allowed, and
the former divulged the fact that the
park custOdians and park policemen,
the appointment of whom the council
refused to confirm, are still upon the
pay roll. The names will doubtless be
referred to the reform council for con-
frmation.
The old claim of J. Il. Armstrong was
again diSallowed. 1t is the opinion of
the board that Mr.. Armstrong cannot
recover. He is regular employe of the
city engineers department. and he puts
in bill for three months services of
his horse in riding to Lake COmO-a
total of S75.
1t was resolved to advertise for pro-
pOsals for the purchase and removal of
the old tower OH Carpenter park, and
the Superintendent was directed to pre-
pare plans and specifications for re-
tanning wall to be built along the Ram
sey street side of the park. The super
lntendent was also instr ucted to make
an estimate of the cost of paving the
walks in Central park with asphalt. 1t
is stated that the expense of maintain
ing gravel walks is enormous, owing to
the frequent washOuts.

a poor investment.

About forty saloonkeepers attended

the following invitation:

by Charley Johnson, who. it was
claimed, was ''Wright enthusiast"
whatever that meant The midnight clos
ing ordinance, while not being consid-
cred in formal way, was thought to be
all right as long as the officials played
no favorites. The question of combin-
ing with the prOprietOrs of cigar stores
and other resorts which the reformers
might attach was discussed, but no one
seemed to know just what steps to take.
The chairman finally appointed a COM
mittee of five to call Oh the commit

were careless about the rights of foot

all right. Most of the COM

those who used the sidewalks to do fast
riding on. This could be stopped in a
measure by the club officers issuing
orders to stop racing on the sidewalks.
In rainy weather it was impossible

Mr.. Johnson thought the police Off

their eyes when they saw good citizens
violating the law. MIR. Lightner wanted
to know how they could discriminate.
Mr.. johnson said with some warmth
they could do the same With

not seem to be any argumenC to be ad-

WANTS REFS TO DIvvY.
The LeverOos Suit to Recover
Fees Amounting to $1,000.

One of the suits against ex-City Treas
urer George Refs to recover fees for
serving notices of assessments, etc., is
on trial before Judge Otis and a jury.
This case is that of Emma A. Leveroos,
as adminlstratix of the estate of John
Leveroos. Fees to the amount of ST.
144.30 are demanded, with interest. The
plaintiff claims that the services were
done by LeverOOs, who. at the request
of Mr.. Refs, presented bills for services
to the city. and they were allowed by
the common council and the money paid
to Refs, who refused to pay it over to
the men who did the services. Refs
claims the services were part of the
duties of the clerical force in his cf1ice,
and that all fees for services as no.
tary in the line of the assessments
were, of right, the perquisites of the
Office. The full story on both sides of
the case was given in the GLOBE when
this and another suit were instituted.

The Suit That Led to the Foreign
Trip for Health. .
Judge Brill is engaged in hearing the
cause of Hattie B. Coulter against
George II. Hurd and others. This is
another case involving the Bushnell
transactions, and it was probably owing
to the beginning of this particular case
and the publication of The story in con-
nectiOn Herewith that led the Bush
nells to think that they had better resort
in foreign country for the benefit of
their health. Mrs. Golfer owned ST.
Paul property and sold it, taking a,
mortgage i'll part payment. She wrote
the Bushnells from California to collect
the mortgage notes as they fell due and,
account to her for the proceeds. She
claims that the mortgage was satisfied
without her authority or consent. and
the money went into the Bushnell pool.
She now seeks to recover part of the.
money that went into the purchase Of
real estate that passed into the hands of
Hurd. -.

Yesterday. The evidence for the prose-
cution having been submitted, the mo-

Teachers Need Not TrembIe.

Last March an examination was held
under the new law providing for the
permanent appointment of teachers in
the public schools, and in short time a
second examination will be held. tits
explained that no present teacher par
ticnlarly hazards continuance in the
service by reason of falling to pass for
permanent appointments. The condi-
tions are rather rigid. in other words,
and the best Judgment of the admins :
tration of the schools is that when
teacher is meeting with acknowledged
success it will result in harm to make
change.

A MIDDLE AGE RELIC
Is What an Eminent Mason Calls the
Famous Morgan Affair.

Is What an Eminent Mason Calls the
Famous Morgan Affair.
UTICA, n. Y, Oct 5.-Wnat has for many
years been a dream OF the Masonic order in
this State was realized to-day, when the new
Masonic home near this city was dedicated.
Masons from all over the State poured in,
and at l O'Clock thousands formed in line,
with many banners, and went out to the
beautiful new building on the outskirts of
the town. The services were brief, consist
ing of singing, an invocation and an address
in his dedicatory talk, referred to the
Morgan affair. Said he: "All of a sudden
came the fierce, unreasoning and unreason-
able 'anti-Masonic' excitement, caused by
the sudden disappearance of William Nor
claimed by its enemies, had been spirited
away by Free MasonS and presumably put
to death.
"Political affairs were very dull and peace
full in those days, Sle old party lines having
for the most part being obliterated, and the
country was tranquil to an extent that made
demagogues restless and uneasy. Politicians
avail themselves of the temporary and at
first merely local excitement caused by the
disappearance of Morgan. But the anti
Masonic outbreak and craze of which have
briefly spoken by way of illustration did n OF
really belong to the nineteenth century. It's
proper place was away back in the Middle
Ages, when superstition was general, when
dice, and when federation and forbearance
among those VINO ruled were rarely Drac-
ticed and were, indeed, virtures scarcely
known"
