Local Affairs.

Judge Weed reported that he had OBJ
tanned terms from the HERALD and
Times and the Pasadena Star for adver-
tising the contract to light the city with
electricity upon the expiration OF the
present agreement upon January lat
next. The council, however, decided 1t
would be better to run the risk of not
getting any outside bids rather than in
vest few dollars in advertising, and or
dered that the advertisement be in
serted only in the Star.
A petition was received from property
owners on Madeline drive asking that
the grade be established on that street.

relative to repairing the railroad eros

work and would look out for the side
walk and paving on Colorado street.

specifications for grading, sidewalk, curb
and gutter on Moline avenue, between
Colorado street and the Santa Fe railway
