organized, namely. cable road. sewer con-
nectiOn and other Improvements, are about
TO be attained. and the members are well
satisfied with their efforts thus far.
The executive committee. to whom was
referred the water-pipe issue between the
Spring Valley Water Works and Golden
Gate Park, reported thar it had discussed
the matter at great length. 1t transpired
at one OF the meetings that the water works
has never applied by letter for a pipe privi-

asking that some goOseneeks be attached to

ceived, and the secretary was instructed TO
write another at the next meeting. Every
thing in the way of improvement is pro-
crossing rapidly. and it is expected that the
cable-line extension will be in operation III
less than three weeks.
