NEW YORK, June l5.-The weekly
statement OF the Associated Banks shows
the following changes:
The herald., 1895-11-28
THE CITY HALL

It being the middle of the week and q
holiday approaching, everything in and
around the city hall was declared to be
Every quiet" but after some thinking the
heads of the various departments gradu-
ally evolved from their inner conscious
ness several items of news of interest.
The time for the first payment of city
taxes is extended to the I'd day of Decem :
ber The amount OF first payment SO far
paid in is about $500, coo. which is in
excess of the amount paid in up to this
time last year. The method in use IN
the city office seems to be far ahead of
that in the county Office. The amount
collected is quite as large and the attend :
ant fuss and growing infnitesimal.
The city clerk reports only petition
Tor the widening of Bellevue avenue be-
tween Buena Vista and CASTELAR, street.
The city employees will not be paid till
Monday. Hope it will not deprive them
of tbeir Thanksgiving turkey.
In the health office everything partnkes
of the general peace, there being few con-
tagious diseases prevalent, merely one
case of scarla;ina being represented. Inc
doctors are still dilatory about reporting
births, although there was some improve
ment in this respect. The garbage nul-
sapce is still unabated. and 1t is 20 ia
hoped that some different arrangements
will be made when the new contract is
let, WHEREBY the health office may have
the decision in such matters. At present
they are powerless to do anything against
this menace to the health OF the com mu-
nity. 1t is expected that today the mayor
will sign the dead AMI nal contract, where
by w. e. Peterson removes dead animals
for 81 per head as against the former
price paid Ramlsh q Marsh OF S4.95
apiece. This IS a great saving to.the city,
MS there are on an average about seventy
a month, MIR. Peterson will probably
make as much out of it as the former
contractors, as they vera obliged to Gre
mate the animals, while he is free TO
sell their products for mechanical pur-
poses. which amounts to no small sum, as
will be seen when it is stated that
Cleveland, Ohio, man offered the city
$I2, 600 year for the privilege of remov-
ing the dead animals within it.
OF course, dogs and cats are taken at
less price, and others in proportion.
A good story was told the reporter
apropos of this graduation. An old lady
boarded an English train with q small
menagerie-namely, some canary birds
in cage, a parrot, dog and cat and
rabbit and a small tortoise. She asked
the porter how much extra fare she d
have to pay for them, and when he had
asked the guard be said: Cats is dogs,
and rabbits is dogs, and cocxs and hens
in cages is rabbits, and SOS parrots, but
this ere tortoise is a binsect and there
ain t no charge for EN-.

Valuation.


The schools are all enjoying the
Thanksgiving recsss, during which the
repairs on the Union avenue school will
be put in. They will amount TO several
hundred dollars. The city and county
institute will do their final work and
close today. 1t has been by far the most
successful and least expensive of any ever
held here, as home talent WAS largely
employed and everything was very prac-
tical due, no doubt to the president $
personal acqua intance with the teachers
and their needs. beautiful new copper
fire extinguisher, that looked like a
samovar or coffee urn, made the weary
reporter realize how hungry she was. 1t
was put in to cxtinguish the ardor of
Nj. Grub, who got so much excited
over tine putting in of stoves whose fun
nels had to be put out OF windows and
through walls in the raised school houses
of the San Pedro, Union avenue and Gates
street schools. owing to the non-arrival
of the furnaces.

been begun. Altogether this means l26
new school rooms. The following vary

The weekly meeting OF the board of
fire commissioners was held at 10 this
morning with full board present.
The point ot greatest interest to the
general public was n ruling in regard to
the ordinance which demands frc escapes
on all buildinES Of three stories and more.
This morning the superintendent OF
buildings was INSTRUCTED by the board to
make list Of all buildings not having
proper fire escapes and to hcnceforth en-.
force the ordinance, IN the case Of old
buildings as well as new.
A communication from Chief Moore and
the electrician recommended large num-
Der of new Tire alarm boxes. Those or
dered placed were the following: East

Street Work


During the past year we have expended
more money for the improvements of our
streets. including grading, graveling,
curbinp, sioewalking and sewering, than
in any previous three years. The sewer
systems com pleted and in course of con-
struction are the most extensive internal
systems we have ever built, reaching out
into nearly every part of the city that is
thickly settled and relieving the city OF
the vile and disagreeable cesspools and
many old sewers that ara beginning to
cause untolj trouble from Il sanitary
point of view. Although the streets are
being extended and opened up in nearly
every direction and the mi leage OF graded
streets is increasing 50 rapidly they are
usually in excellent condition. The
streets in the business portion of town
are becoming very badly worn, and the
course Cf the council in cutting down the
force or the street department results in
delaying these needed repairs So that
they will be nearly impossible unless
something Is done very soon. 1T is prac-
tIcaly unsafe for vehicle to be driven
faster than walk on Spring, Nam or
Broadway in the business portion of
town.
The extension of Snort street TO- the IN
terscction of Third and A lam eda is under
contemplation.
rhc widening and Improvement of Sec
ond street from La Grande station west
ward is already oegun.
Tho proposed boulevard leading from
Westlake park to Elysian park viii give
a beautiful driveway around the most
picturesque part OF the city.

Park Commission

The present park department has un-
dertaken several very important steps
and the most noteworthy of these is the
inauguration and pushing of a broad bou-
levard system connecting the different
parks. A good beginning has been made
at Westlake park in the 120-foot bouls-
ward from Westlake park through the
Wiltshire estate to the Westlake park en-
tension at the western city limits and the
greater portion of the right OF way for a
100-foot boulevard from this point to
Elysian park by way of Echo park, and
it is to be hoped that at no distant day
our city may boast of beautiful drive
SUCH as il should have, where the pleas
ures of driving will be augmented by the
beautiful trees and landscapes and smooth
roads without the annoyance of a car
line.
Lately the Los Angeles Botanical soci-
ETY. has been formed under the auspices
of the PARK com mission and it Is graft
flying to see how much popular interest is
being taken in the move and as it has
for its ultimate purpose the founding of
a botanical garden. the general public
should come in and aid the commission
and officers of the society, as every move
of this kind aids our whole city and
tends to make ii more attractive to the
eastern visitor.
Although only sufficient sum Of m oney
was appropriated by the city council for
the M maintenance of our parks. it is
gratifying to see that under the careful
busiaesslike method of tie department
and commission marked Improvements
are being steadily made, all of the PARKS
showing careful and impartial manage
ment.
The Elysian nursery of William Lyons
on Broadway aided verv much in making
one very important addition to Central
park and it will be source OF much
beauty and interest to every plant lover.
This firm planted large oval bed to
California lilies, large and varied as
sortment gathered together from one end
of this state to the other, and as this will
be the FIRST display of its nature in either
park or garden it will be ii welcome fea-
ture of park i'm provemeut.
