This time the second nine met the fire

in victory for the firemen, the score
being 30 20. Fleming and Irland, of

for their victory.

If they were not enacted to be en-
forced, then they should be repeal

officer, sworn to do his duty, he

WITHOUT LICENSE.
Alex Mickey Asks for Protection From
the Council.
Athena liquor men are on the
qui vive, and the reasons for it
comes about through the actions of
a prominent saloon keeper Of this
city. Alex Mckay who runs the
popular resort on Main and 3rd
streets petitioned the city council,
at their regular meeting Monday
night, to protect him in his busi-
ness from parties selling liquor in
less quantities than one quart,
without a license from the city
council giving them the right to do
so.
The council instructed the city
marshal TO investigate, and thus
the matter now stands. No names
were mentioned in the petition but
it is alleged that person who
wishes to imbibe of spirits furmen-
ii, in less quantities than O barrel,
gallon or even q quart can do the
same at more than one place in
town, without going over muddy
cross-walks to the saloon on the
corner.
Parties who claim to know are
Of the opinion that Mckay will get
the worst OF it from those who are
interested in the liquor question, il
he follows the matter up. The
prevailing opinion seems to be on
the side Of Mckay, who pays a
license quarterly to the city for the
privilege Of feeling liquor, runs an
| orderly house and merely asks the
city council for the protection that
is Justly due him.

EMIGRATION FROM CANADA.

age the People.
There is a general alarm in Can
ada about the large increased en-
igration this spring from the DOM
inion to the United States. Three
years of bad business and poor
crops have completely discouraged
q large element Of the Canadian
population.
Meanwhile news comes of in
creased wages and increased busi-
ness in the states, which agents of
the American and Canadian rail-
way companies are using to the
utmost advantage. They have
men in the counties Of Rimonski,
Matane and Bonaventure who have
induced whole families to embark,
bag and baggage, for the United
States. The number of deserted
farms are something enormous.
Several hundred more people
have enigrated to the newly open
ed gold fields of the Rainy Lake
region Of Ontario, just over the
border from Minnesota. No white
man was settled there a year ago,
but population of nearly 1900 is
now claimed. Many shafts are al
ready sunk, some over seventy feet
deep, and four stamp mills are in
operation.

to accomplish, says editorially:
Lively of character as we'll as by
name is the Port Townsend gent
leman who is promoting the pro-
posed sale of Portland's entire elec-
trio railway to an English syndi-
cate. Despite the era of depres-
sion through which the country is
struggling, and in the face Of pro-
Inounced tiTnidity on the part of
foreign capital when confronted by
American bids for investment, this
active Washingtonian has almost
completed the details of deal
which shall transfer about $4,000
900 Of British money to American
hands. TO do that in the best of
times would be something of a feat,
but to do It while the value of all
kinds Of American securities is
threatened with impairment by the
silver craze is a remarkable achieve
ment. Mr.. Lively says that the
English capitalists with whom he
is negotiating have long had an eye
on the Pacific Northwest and are
anxious to find safe investments
here, and that the Portland street
railway deal is the largest Of sew

REAL ESTATE and BUILDING
The Weeks Work in the Build
ing Line
STEADY PROGRESS SHOWN
More Than Usual Activity in Land
Dealings
Sales Of Real Estate Reported by Dealers
and Improvements Contemplated
by the Purchasers

The week ending yesterday saw not
quite so many permits issued for the
construction of new buildings as has
been usual OF late, though the number
still exceeds the ten day which not
long ago YVES thought to be SO large.
The total number OF permits issued was
sixty-six, and the aggregate value OF the
buildings proposed to be constructed $79.-
996.
AS might be expected with the near
approach of the tourist season, the build
ing which represents ths investment of
the largest sum of money is series of
flats, two two-story wooden buildings
ana one two-story brick building to be
erected on Sand street, between Bunker
Hill avenue and Hill street. The total
cost of the buildings will be $l6 900. An
other set OF flats will BIZ constructed for
Albertina c. Peterson, on Maple avenue,
between Sixth and Seventh Streets two
story frame buildings to cost Sil25. Still
another fiat for which a permit was is
sued is that to be constructed on Georgia
Bell streat. between Twelfth and Pico.
for S. A. Bulfinch. The building will be
a two-story frame and is estimated to
cost $500. Frank Rebout will build a
two-story brick structure for store and
roomlng purposes at the northwest corner
Of Vignes and Also streets to cost, ac-
co-ding to estimates, 5000. r. l. DE
Hail took out permit for the repair and
remodeling of brick building on the
west side of First street, near Whining
ton. The building. when completed, will
be four-story brick structure, to be used
for store and rooming purposes, and the
alterations decided upon will cost $4,000.
Among the high class dwellings for
which permits were issued is that for
Pauline A. Gosewitz, two-story frame
building of handsome proportions. to be
erected on Grand avenue, between
Twentieth and Twenty-frst streets, the
cost being given as $500. S. A. W. Car
yer has contracted for The erection OF a
dwelling Souse on Summit avenue, the
cost being $3.50.
The Trinity NJ. e. church south take
out permit for the construction of a
two-story annex to the church on Grand
avenue between Eighth and Ninth.
AS has been the case during the past
few months the large majority of permits
issued co-er the erection OF INCIDENT
homes. There are many ranging in cost
from $1,000 to $500 and large number
also ranging downward from $1,000. The
usual proportion of buildings of this lak-
ter class are built by capitalists for sale
or rent. but the demand for com Portable
houses to rent for reasonable amounts
still greatly exceeds the supply, for not
withstanding the enormous activity in
building the growth of the population is
more rapid than the increase in the num-
Der of buildings in the city.
