present floor and arrangement of stalls
in this market is very bad.
The bricks that were originally laid
on the floor are either broken or loose,
and in some places they are gone alto
gether. The stalls are so constructed
that it is impossible to wash under
them, and the floor is in such shape
that cannot be properly washed either.
The result is there is always bad odor
peryading the house.
Then again, the two furnaces are right
along side of wooden stalls with no pro-
lection for the wood, and when there is
a fire in the furnaces the wood work is
liable to become ignited. A number of
small stoves are also set about in diff
ferent places and they add to the dan
ger of fire. These furnaces are
very often lighted at night when there
is O performance in the Opera House
upstairs, and if fire should break out
the result might be very serious.
The vestibules of the market house
have wooden floors, and swarms of rats
have gotten under the wood work.
These rodents are becoming quite bold,
and on several occasions have greatly
frightened ladies in the market house.
The improvements will be made as
soon as the public diamond is paved.
The butchers will then move out on the
diamond, erecting small tents or sheds
over their stalls. They are quite
anxious to have the work done, and will
do all in their power to help it along.
Another matter which should be at
tended to at once is the water closet in
the house. This place is in terribly
filthy condition. The pipes are either
broken or stopped up, and the water
runs out oyerthe board walk
