IA man rich in poverty" yesterday sent
to the board of public works letter adj
dressed to 1.-THE public officials of Seattle"
evidently referring to a recent case Of suf-
fering.
In conversation with Mrs. Ryther the
writer suggested the propriety of raising a
subscription from all humanitarians at
city headquarters to purchase house and
lot for the unfortunate mother in trust for
the child born at the City hall. To get our
acting mayor enlisted in the good work
the writer suggests that the boy be chris
tened Doctor Sweeney Spencer" and no
doubt being thus honored he will head the
list with $50. The writer will give $40.
Who won't help a possible future presi-
dent Of the United States, doctor
Sweeney Spencer?" Start the ball ana
let it roll to success. 1t was referred to
the acting mayor with favorable recon-
mendation.
City Engineer Thomson called atten-
ton to the dangerous condition Of Depot,
between Temperance and Banner streets.
He says that Depot street was graded in
1888. but in 1890 the grade elevations of
West. Temperance and Banner streets
were changed by ordinance, SO that Tenn.
perance street was to be lowered eight
feet. West street about six feet and Ban
ner about three feet. The West Street &
North End electric road cut a roadway for
their tracks through the old grade. leav-
ing very narrow and dangerous road
way abreast of West street and extending
to Banner. Mr.. Thomson was asked to
report the probable cost.
The board approved of the sale of 800
feet of six-inch column pipe at so cents
per foot and 200 feet of eight-inch column
pipe at 35 cents per foot.
A number of property owners on Lewis
street protested against the proposed
grade.
w. Auckland offered to sell the electric
lighting plant at Lake Washington pump
ing station for $3.50. 1t consists of one 40
light dynamo. one 12-inch water wheel,
six horse power, and twenty five sixteen
candle power lamps and wiring.
Several applications for water main and
permits were passed upon or referred for
report.
The board was occupied nearly all the
session considering the proposed new
building ordinance.

One House and Two Shacks Burned
Blaze In Machine Shop.
Between II O'Clock Thursday night and
8 O'Clock yesterday morning the fire de-
partment answered three still alarms.
The first was sent in by John Willow for
fire in q wooden building at the corner
OF Taylor and Fontenelie streets, owned
by the estate Of Albert Johnson. When
discovered the flames had enveloped The
building, ana all the firemen could do was
to save the house of Willow, which was
twenty feet away. No one was i'll John
sons house when it caught, and the occu-
pant, Peter Johnson, a brother Of the
deceased and single man, was out Of the
city. He has had some other men living
with him, but none of them were seen
around the house before or after the fire.
The house was worth about 500 and had
little furniture; no insurance is known.
Willows house was damaged $50: in
surance, $500.
About O'Clock in the morning fire was
discovered in the blacksmith shop of Nc
Culloch Il Campbell. at the corner of Yes
Ter and Railroad avenues. The apparatus
responded promptly to telephone alarm,
and chemical No. soon extinguished the
flames. which were burning the boiler
props. Loss, about S..
At s o'clock telephone alarm was re-
ceived at headquarters for supposed fire
in the Bay View brewery. Improved. how
ever. 20 be nothing more than an unused
shack. the property Of the widow of Mar
tin LANCE, who was killed by the cars.
Three tramps had slept in the shack and
on awaking had built fire to warm them
selves. Their calculations miscarried and
the building caught fire. compelling them
to get out in hurry. Chief Hunt found
two of them in saloon and held them
until the patrol wagon came. The case
was. referred to the prosecuting attorney,
who decided that it would be impossible to
convict them of arson, as the building was
open and empty.
