ALAMEDA, CAL, May 26.-On the cor
ner OF Grand street and Railroad avenue
there stands a house and fence projecting
on the avenue. 1t belongs to Mrs. Mary
Barotean and has long been an eyesore.
Twelve months ago a proposition was
made to the City Trustees to paw for their
removal, but they refused to do
so, as they had no authority to spend
money in that direction. Now the matter
has been arranged by w. H. Noy of Bay
street station. The work commenced yes
terday and the Southern Pacific Company
will foot the bill for the removal and i'm
provcments, such as a stone sidewalk and
cement fence around Mrs. Barotean's lot.
Mrs. Barotean, on her part as recited in
the deed, agrees to give to the Southern
Pacihc Company, the right in perpetuity
to lay railway tracks past her house and
run trains thereon. The company holds
no franchise for the road from the city, its
contention being that the track is run on
its own private property.

Attorney Clarity is very popular in
Democratic circles and his vote two years

surprisingly large in this Republican

probably have landed him q winner.

Jon, and l have consented. / have never

crease, these ladies made call on the
various churches in the city and they have
all responded with hearty good will.

forward the movement. The City Trus-
tees gave the use of the council chant Der
as committee-room, the use of electric

tents and decorate them, each church
using one particular flower for decorating
and vending only one class of eatables, so
that the tout ensemble may be unique,
