PASADENA, May 2S.-Only four mem
bers OF the council were present at TO-
days session, Mr.. Weed failing to get
In from the beach in time to attend.
Business was light and it took but few
moments to clear the table. Mr.. Lukens
presided as usual. Following the ap-
proyal of the minutes OF the last meet
ing, reports were called for from the
chairmen OF the various committees.
For the first time in many months the
auditing and finance failed to turn up
with a eood sized bundle of bills to be ap-
proved. Mr.. Washburn, Of the streets
and alleys committee, reported upon the
alley between Bellview and Waverly
drive, which has been cleared. he also
stated that some parties were kicking
because the city failed to take care OF
the arroyo bridge. No action was taken
in either case.
THE PASADENA STREET RAILWAY
company presented new bond in the
sum OF $4,000 for the completion OF their
electric road prior to January lat. '94.
The bond was accepted and the clerk in
was not satisfactory.

fenSsd for receiving bids, one week.
The ordinance introduced at the last
meeting, prohibiting carriages from
standing in front of the Terminal eta
ton directly before or after the arrival
OF train. was passed by a full vote.
John Shamlater was granted 10 days
extension of time for the completion of
work on Vernon avenue.
petition signed by moat OF the bust
ness men of town was presented, asking
that the houses. both in the business
and resident districts, be properly num-
Sered, that the present confusion which
exists may be avoided. The petition
called out lengthy argument ON the
question. Mr.. Clark explained the sYs-
tenn now in force, which calls for num-
Der every 1919 feet. He thought it a
good one, il the people would only pull
down their old numbers and put up the
right ones. Mr.. Wsshburn had two
numbers on his house to make matters
certain. The oity attorney said the
ordinance provided for sending people
who failed to comply with it to Jail,
which caused a general smile round the
circle. Mr.. Lukens called for suggest
ions, but no one seemed to know what
to do and the matter dropped.

NO KICK COMING.
There has been quite a row kicked up
on East Colorado street over the two
store buildings which are being placed
on the north side OF the street directly
east of Marengo avenue.
The buildings, it is claimed. will in.
Jure residence property in the vicinity,
one new house being between where the
stores will stand. The council has been
censured for allowing the buildings to be
put in and general kick made. So far
aa the council was concerned. they had
no power to act in the matter had they
desired to do 40, as the location is out
side of the FIRE limits. 1t seems that
this land has been held for business
purposes for the past eight years.
Messrs. Skillen and Brockway notified
DIR. Van Slyck before he commenced the
erection OF his residence that the stores
would be put in and offered to purchase
the lot at market value rates. go that it
in difficult to see where cause for COM
plant comes in.
