charged the county for board and care of
prisoners and not to lease the county any
cells.
The matter Of constructing sewers for

resolutions of intentions to do the work
were passed to a second reading.
The committee Of arrangements for the
celebration Of the Queens jubilee informed

to purchase and improve Victoria Hill as
park, as a memorial of the queen, and

pressed themselves as favorable to the
proposition.
The action of the citizens of Riverside in
proposing to celebrate the queens Jubilee
as a compliment to British-born fellow cit

Victoria promises to result in a public
enterprise of great moment-nothing less
indeed than the making of park of Vic

for the celebration met several PROPOSE

the erection of a public drinking fountain;
another looked\ to the building of public
baths; third was on the line of Victoria
room in the proposed Kings Daughters
home for destitute women; and a fourth
provided for the making of public park
of Victoria Hill. The last was not least
for 1t was decided to be the best. In fact,
it was adopted, providing the necessary
funds could be raised.
