ILLEGAL RATES OF FEES.
The Municipal League Committee
ROasts Register of Deeds.

Not more than half a dozen munich
pal reform leaguers were in attend
ance at the meeting of the league here
last night, and no business was trans
acted. c. w. Horr, Ambrose Tighe
and w. l.. Ames, the committee ap-
pointed to make an investigation re-
garding the fees charged by the reg
lister of deeds, sent in a hot report in
which it is claimed that the rates
charged by Register of Deeds Weber
are from 25 to 50 per cent more than
the law allows.
Following is the report:
your committee finds that the reg
lister of deeds charges more than he is
legally entitled to. The statute says
that he can charge w cents per folio
for 100 words, and 10 cents for his GER
titicate. We find he charges as fol-
lows:

THEY ALL 'JOSHED"
Aldermen Seized by a Playful
Mood, Move the Hay
market
ON TO SUMMIT SQUARE
Then Afterwards Move 1t
Away Down on Fifth
Street.
ON TO SUMMIT SQUARE
POOR COPPER DISCUSSED
And Stood Off Again Tor
a While--Minor Matters
Disposed OF.

When aldermen are in a facetlous
mood their sessions are a source OF
unaIloyed delight to themselves ana
tbe snectators. Those who attend
ed the meeting last night, and, alas,
they were too few in number, bore
awav recoIlectionS of Sublimated
wit that, in their future gloomy mo-
ments, they may, perchance, recall
to chase away carking care and
morose melancholy.
1t must not be understood that
the city fathers sighted the bust
ness before them. Not bit of 1T.
On the contrary, they disposed of
it with usual dispatch, emitting long
speeches and voting without making
lengthy explanations. But, as there
were not many questions to vote
upon, the spirit of Josh seized the
"boys," and they joshed.
The momentous matter before the
board was this: What shall be done
with the .'Haymarket?" The Fifth
ward insists upon it's removal from
it's precincts, and adds in a petition
signed by influential citizens that it
be removed to some other place, to
Pigs Eye, if necessary. Accord
ingly, the following resolution was
introduced by aid. Kartak and
other aldermen" who were insti-
gated thereto by young and en-
terprising Republican of the Sew
enth ward.
Resolved, That the haymarket be
removed
TO SUMMIT SQUARE"
Aid. Markham, who has the vital
interests of the blue-blooded dis
trict at heart, welcomed the propo-
Sition eagerly. Indeed, as he rose
to speak upon the resolution, one
could almost discern an avaricious
CLEAN in his eye, or, rather, his
eyes, for the alderman has two good
optics.
There are said the representa-
tive from the Seventh, 1.-TWO sides

sides to this question. [ am, how

more. [ regard this resolution as a
good thing, and would suggest that
we push it along'"
1t was promptly pushed, every
alderman contributing a shove. But
what can satisfy the ''insatiate
greediness" Of the Seventh ward?
No sooner had the vote been re-
corded than Aid Markham moved
and secured its reconsideration, and
then inserted an amendment
The alderman not only wanted the
haymarket removed to his ward, but
asked for ANY other old thing the
Fifth ward don't want" His broth
er aldermen acquiesced, and it
is hoped that the Seventh ward has
secured at last all it has for a long
time desired.

Other papers in about the same pro-
portion.
when the law was enacted gov
erning the office of the register of
deeds, it was the usual custom to re-
cord all the instruments by writing
But in later years the county has
at great expense to the taxpayers fur
nished the register of deeds with a
great many different books with print
ed forms, and it is an injustice to the
taxpayers, who have first paid for the
printed books, that they should again
be charged for the printed part of the
instruments which they place on rec
ord, when in many cases the writing
to be done by clerks in the register of
deeds office to record said instruments
is very little. 1t would seem that the
register ought to be satisfied with the
fee allowed him by law. We would
make the suggestion that the munic-
ipal league call the attention of the
register of deeds of Ramsey county to
the fact that he is charging more than
he is entitled to by law, and no doubt
he will correct the abuse at once. But
if he does not, then this would be a
matter that would more properly be-
long to the grand jury than for pri-
vate Investigation

was debated again without any per-
ceptible advantage to the copper,
but considerable satisfaction to the
aldermen. The subject came before
the board in the resolution from the
assembly providing that those po-
licemen who did not receive their
salary because the assembly did not
confirm them until Oct. last, be
paid for all the time they actually
served prior to that date. This reso-
luton was originally introduced by
Assemblyman Robb, and Mr.. Robb
was sitting next to the throne occu-
pied by President Brady, prepared
to explain it.
Aid. Markham said that he was not
opposed to seeing those policemen
paid, but he did not approve of the
resolution, as in that form it had no
binding force and was out of order
Mr.. Markham therefore suggested
that it be referred to the committee
on police.
Aid. Murphy opposed such dispo-
sition of it, and urged it's adoption,
but City Attorney Chamberlain in
formed the board that the resolu-
ton amounted to nothing more than
a mere expression Of the sentiment
of the council, and was not specific
| enough to warrant any payment Of
| money. To accomplish the desired
object, the resolution must specify
tho 1,oy,,n of each nOlicQman and
the amount due him. Aid. Murphy
then moved to refer the resolution
to the committee on police and the
city attorney with instructions to
draw proper resolution. The mo-
ton prevailed.

The victorious California marksmen who
returned Saturday night from the scene of
their triumph in the East at the National
Schuetzen fest were not conspicuously in
evidence yesterday outside of their family
circles. After the fiattering public recep-
tion which was given them by their COM
rades-in-arms, members of the various local
shooting vereins, they evidently decided
to rest upon their laurcls and take q rest
in the bosom of their homes.
Then, too, each. and all, outside of the
feelings OF inconsistencies caused by
months Absence suffered from WEAKNESS.
Their trip was an eventful one from the
start, and there was little or no chance
given them for rest. When not engaged
in the exciting contests of the festival they
were involved in perpetual round Of
social intercourse with Eastern friends and
admirers.
"No one can say that the Eastern people
are not hospitable, said George Helm, the

LATEST BERKELEY NEWS,
Town Trustees in Difficulty
Over the San Pablo Ave-
nue. Grading.
Offered Against Continuing
the Job.

One of the most important measures
now calling for the immediate attention of
the Board of Town Trustees is the macad-
amizing of San Pablo avenue. The pro-
ceedings are in a complicated state and
doubtless much difficulty will be expert
enced before matters are properly adjusted.
About year ago the Board of Trustees
passed resolutions of intention to grade
ard macadamize the southern portion of
the avenue lying within the town limits,
the work to be done on the district plan.
A large number of protests were made by
the citizens owning property along the
line of the proposed work, and through
delays, bringing the work well into the
winter, it was decided to postpone the
hearing of protestants until spring.
The matter was taken up again in the
following February, but the protests were
overruled. Contracts were subsequently
awarded, the grading being given to w. J.
Schmidt and the matchmaking to the
Oakland Rock Company. Schmidt did
his work, but the Superintendent of
Streets refused to enter into the contract
with the Oakland Rock Company on the
ground that protest from parties owning
the greater part of the frontage bars the
work for six months. This course was
taken at the request OF the contractors,
who promised to Immediately sue out a
writ of mandate in the Supreme Court,
thus securing within few weeks an
adjudication of a point upon which no
ruling had yet been rendered.
The contractors, however, have not carried
out their part Of the agreement, and the
course now to be taken whereby a speedy
solution of the case may be made is the
problem to be solved. The avenue is one of
the main thoroughfares through the west
ern portion of town, and it is con-
stantly used by teams passing to and from
Contra Costa and Oakland. 1t is said by
experts that if it is left without macadam
during the coming winter it will be quite
and a large portion of the
grading may have to be done over again.
The property along the section of the
street which was supposed to have been
is owned for the most part in
large tracts, and some of these owners pro-
pose to resist the intended improvements
with all their power. In consequence of
their continued protests the matter is one
full of difficulties, and lively time is an
ticipated by the Town Board before matters
shall have been completely adjusted.

A Now Veneer.

The production of new kind of veneer
ing material is noticed in the German
papers, the substance being composed prin-
cipally of infusorial earth mixed with vari-
Gus binding and coloring ingredients and
spread in layers over a wooden core. On
the mass becoming dry it is cut into sheets
or blocks, and if the layers have been diff
ferently colored, their irregular section
presents an effect resembling that of
figured wood. For its expeditions produc-
ton machine is arranged by which two
wooden posts, thirteen feet high and about
hve feet apart, are made to revolve about
vertical axis. Each post has twenty-four
horizontal branches radiating from it, and
these branches as we'll as the posts revolve
easily about their own axis. In the
process of manufacture the horizontal
branches are first covered with paper, to
prevent any OF the composition sticking to
them, and then painted with the mixture
of infusorial earth, coloring matter and
gum. The branches attached to one of
the posts are first painted with one coat,
and the machine is then revoived SO as to
bring the other post near the operator: by
the time the branches of the second post
are coated, those of the first post are dry
and ready to be revolved into position for
a second coat. In this manner. the paint
ing goes on continuously until the branches
are loaded with coat of composition nine
or ten inches thick; the color of
the coats is made alternately dark and
light, and the thickness of the stratum Is
varied, so as to initiate the VARYING thick
ness of the annual rings in tree. When
all is thoroughly dry the cylinders of com
position are slipped off their wooden cores
and sawed or cut into veneers.-New York
