Appointed J acdonald.

Theodore H. Macdonald was appoint
ed yesterday afternoon to make the
year book of the city for 1896 The ap-
pointment has been hanging for several
weeks. The democrats have favored
John F. McHugh of the tax collectors
Office, but the successful candidate has
agreed to do the work for $3.50, which is
one half of the price formerly paid. II
has been the custom of the two govern
ments to have the work done in the tax
collectors office. 1t has cost $3.50 in for
mer years, of which $3.50 was paid by
the town, an equal amount by the city
and $50 by the school district. The
town favored saving this money by
hiring the lowest bidder for the work

BOARD OF COMPENSATION
PROPERTY HOLDERS oBJKCr To
PAYING FOR THE LAND.
Citizens Along hittemnro Avenue Think
Asses ments For Benefi;s Should Not BE
More Than Damages.

Citizens Along W hittemoro Avenue Think
Asses ments For Ben efi 10 Should Not He
More Than Damages.
Though the court of common council
has some time since voted that all acts
in relation to the opening and the main
tenance of Whittemore avenue be re-
pealed,. this thoroughfare has not ceas-
ed to be thorn In the flesh of the par
ties interested. There are many who
wish the city's vote to be complied with
and the street closed, but unfortunately
for them there are some who have
thought that, although the court OF
common council had practically closed
the way, title to the land acquired
would be clouded unless acted upon by
the board of compensation.

ming. The speaker for the party was
w. "A. Rowe, who represented the es-
tate of Lucius Rowe.
lie did not think that the estate
should be asked to pay anything for
the land that would be added to the
property he represented. He would
not have signed the petition to close
the street had he known that the as.
sessments for benefits would have been
greater than the damages.
The speaker could not remember who
informed him that the damages ana
the assessments for benefits would be
equal.
Mr.. Coyle wished to know if the vast
amount of money spent by the city on
the Boulevard had not enhanced prop
erty in the vicinity.
The question was not understood and
Mr. Rowe replied that he would sell
his land at $40 per foot, or even s.. He
did not want to give the city $5 per foot
for the land he would get by the closing
of the street. He thought IS would be
too much Of an assessment.
Mr.. Coyle reminded Mr.. Rowe that at
one time the estate he appeared for
asked the city $40 per foot.
Charles Smith was willing to pay the
city SO per foot.
Minot E. Chatfleld thought that the
property holders should not be assessed
anything. He had been informed that
when the street was opened the land
had been condemned and nothing had
been paid the owners of the land ad-
joining. This point was not settled.
He said that it would be absur to
leave the avenue open when there was
another street within one hundred feet.
The last speaker was Alderman Felix
Chillingworth, who thought that the
benefits assessed should not be in ex-
cess Of the damages, for while some Of
the property might be benefited by clos
ing the street, much Of it would be
damaged
The board did not render decision.

The FrenchmRn Was tsntirely Outclas ed
In the billiard Match.
New York, April 2,-The result of the
S inch balk line billiard tourney was
evidently a foregone conclusion in the
minds of the patrons of the game who
had seen the meeting of Ives and Gar
nier on Tuesday night. Accordingly
when Ives and the Belgian champion
crossed cues for the second time to-
night there was only a very meagre at
tendance in the concert hall of Madison
Square Garden. The Frenchman was
entirely outclassed in the new game,
and. though some of his shots were
brilliant, he was unaccustomed to the
game and table, and as he said himself,
81 cannot put myself into the game.'
Ives ran out the game While GARNER
was making 10S Ives won the bank
and gathered in SO before he came to
grief on a rather easy draw shot, Gar
nier's first attempt nettde him so when
a difficult two-cushion shot caused his
retirement. The champions contribu-
tions in the second and third innings
were 81 and 46, while the Frenchman
only piled IA and 8, and the cards read
Ives 139, GARNER 40. Ives gave a grand
exhibition in the fourth inning. With
wonderful delicacy he nursed the
worries along the lower rail and piled
up the points.
He passed his third wire and made
100, the gest second run so far, before
kiss robbed him. His average for
four innings was 75%, or nearly half as
