PARK EXPENSES
The Estimates as Finally Filed With
the Auditor

The park commissioners met yester-
day for the purpose of finally determin-
ing the amount they would ask for the
department for the coming year. The
figures as previously agreed upon were
published in The Herald several days
ago, but at the meeting yesterday the
total amount was increased by almost
$4,000, bringing the total for the coming
year up to $67, 500, an increase over last
year of about $4,000. The items added
were s2500 for the improvement of Sun
set park and $4,000 for music.
The committee on music, to which had
been referred the subject of music in the
parks during the summer months, re-
ported that they had had consultation
with the street car companies. These
corporations had promised financial ala
and the committee believed, that an APP
preparation of $4,000 should be asked to
partly pay for music in the parks during
the coming summer, and also decided to
request the city council to create a
music fund, the expenditures to be made
under the direction of the park commits
sion.
Quite discussion ensued over this re-
port, for while all the commissioners
admitted that concerts in the parks
would be a great thing, they thought
that they should not be confined to one
or two parks. 1t was conceded, however
that to attempt to give concerts in all
the parks would be too expensive an
undertaking, and, as the street railway
companies will not contribute for music
in parks where they are not benefited,
the report of the committee was finally
adopted.
Following are the estimates as finally
filed with the auditor: Westlake, $11, 100;
East Los Angeles, S11, 100; Elysian, $1S,-
800; Hollenbeck. $4,000; Echo, $404O; Muir
sery, $45OO; general, $12,260; park music,
$4,000; Sunset, $2500;- total. $67, 500.

City COuncilmen Visit the
Beach
A VERY PLEASANT OUTING
INDULGE IN A BATH AND AN
INFORMAL SPREAD
Park Commissioners Present Their
Final Estimate Of Expenses for
the Year-Notes

Last evening number Of the city
councilmen and several other municipal
officers varied the monotony Of their
usual routine by pleasant trip to the
seashore. The party was composed of
Councilmen Baker, Ashman, Hutchinson,
Order, Mathuss and Toll, Mayor Sny-
der, Mayors Clerk Robert Todd, City
Engineer Dockweiler, Street Superin-
tendent Drain, Deputy City Clerk Has
kins C. E. Donnatin and representatives
Of the press. President Silver of the
council had only just arrived from o
trip to San Francisco, and vast too tired
to make the trip, while previous engage
ments on the part of Councilmen
Blanchard and Nickel prevented them
from being of the party Councilman
Fred Baker of the Second ward chape-
roned the crowd and looked after their
comfort.
The party left the corner of Fourth
and Broadway at o'clock, in a special
car for Santa Monica over the new
shortine. The run was made without
incident in good time. On arrival at
SdHld MOHlCd lIlt Festivities OpeISSQ
with a dip in the plunge at the North
Beach bath house. Those Of the party
who could swim padded about in the
deep water, while those who could not
amused themselves in the shallow end
Each section managed to get about the
same amount of fun out of the bath, and
then they adjourned to the shooting
gallery. Here it came out that some of
those who could not swim could shoot,
and about an hour was put in firing at
the target Mayor Snyder made the
highest score at the birds, knocking
over six In succession.
Shortly after s o'clock the party ad-
journed to Bob Eckerts', where an elab-
crate fish dinner was in waiting. Here
a couple of hours was very pleasantly
passed, the time being spent in i'm
promptu speech-making, story telling
etc., etc. At 10 o'clock. after drinking
to the health Of the mayor and the host of
the evening, Mr.. Baker. the return to
the city was made in the private car,
arriving in time for the various members
to catch the last car for their homes.
The affair was very pleasant one
throughout, and is the first of a series
of little picrc parties which will prob
ably be given by the city fathers to
break the dull routine of the summer
months.
