PROTESTS AND APPEALS
Difference Of Opinion Between Coun-
cilmeu and Lavmen

The protest of John Kiefer and others,
which has been before the council every
week for months, was settled for one
month by the adoption Of the sewer COM
mittee's report. The objection was against
the sewering of San Fernando street be-
tween Bellevue avenue and Alpine street
The sewer committee reported that upon
investigation they find that most of the
buildings situated upon property within
the described limits have been connected
with the sewers either upon CASTELAR, or
Main street, and that comparatively few
buildings remain unconnected with the
sewer upon San Fernando street; and 1t
appears that 1t would occasion hardship
upon the property owners who have al
ready connected with the sewers to compel
the construction OF sewer in San Fer
nando street at this time. They recon-
mended that the hearing of this protest
be postponed for four weeks and that the
health officer be instructed to notify the
owners of buildings not connected with
sewers to Immediately make such connec-
ton either upon CASTELAR, or Main streets !;
and in the event such connections are not
made at the time of the postponed hearing
of this protest, that sewer be constructed
upon San Fernando street in such a man
ner as to provide for the sewering of such
places as are not connected without en-
failing hardship upon those already con-
nected.

acts and determinations Of the superin-
tendent of streets In accepting the work Of
the Improvement of Thirty-second street
from Main street to Maple avenue, and in
issuing his assessment warrant and dia-
gram therefor, was denied upon motion of
Mr. Blanchard, seconded by Mr.. Baker.
The protestants claimed that their order
for the work called for five-foot sidewalk,
but the street superintendent books
proved it to be but four feet thus making
the cost low and debarring it from the
privileges of the bond act.
The protest of E. T. Pierce, against the
sidewalking and curbing of the east side
Of Hope between Fourth and Fifth streets,
was sustained upon motion of Mr.. Toll.
The protest of Clark & Bryan against the
sewering of Broadway from Third to Sew
enth streets was postponed for hearing one
week. The matter is now in the hands of
the sewer committee.
The protests of E. L. Landsberg against
the opening and widening of Tenth street
fron Elwood to Wilson, 3. Ballerino
against the opening and widening of Pico
street from Alvarado to the west city
boundary, and the old one of F. w. Peschke
against the widening and Strengthening OF
Lyon street from Also to Macy streets,
had final action on them deferred one week.
The petition for the opening and extern
sion of DAILY street was referred to the
board of public works.
T. Botiller has filed protest against the
sewering of Eighth street between Los
Angeles street and Maple avenue, which
will probably come up for hearing at the
next meeting.
The petition of s. c. Hubbell to change
the grade of Fifth street between Bonnie
Brae and the extension of Burlington av.
enue was referred to the city engineer.

east side of Hope street from Pico to Fiji

He estimated the cost of improving Car
DINA street from Fourth to Palmetto at
$1.33 per front foot, which would bring the
work under the bond act.
Information has been received by his de-
partment that owing to the fact that the
lines of Griffith park along the river are
practically obscured, owing to the growth
of willows and underbrush, and in conse-
quence of which parties are cutting timber
and otherwise trespassing on the park, he
requests that the council authorize him to
define said lines by placing permanent
monuments of cast iron. The cost Of said
work, including monuments, will be $500.
The board Of public works will investigate
first.

BOBBY BURNS BAND
at the Preside in Need of Musical
Instruments

Bobbie Burns, former member of the
local fire department, and now with the
Seventh in San Francisco, has organized
a band among the boys of the regiment.
Burns Is an enthusiastic musician, and
seeing that the Seventh regiment band was
left behind to soothe us, he determined
that the soldier boys should not be with
out their musicians. He met with many
obstacles in forming his band, and now
that he has reached a stage of formation,
he still lacks much to complete it, He and
his volunteers are short of instruments,
but what they most need just now is
fiat clarinet-and several others, the gov
eminent authorities absolutely refusing to
pay for instruments.
While subscriptions for the benefit of the
boys in the north are in progress, people
who love music and appreciate the effect
of it on mankind, would do good service
TO more than one thousand young men by
contributing little money toward the
purchase Of musical instruments. Music
assists to while away the time when SOL
diers are idling in camp, and stirs them to
deeds Of heroism and bravery when can
mons roar about them and comrades fall at
their side. No military regiment Is com.
plete without a band, no matter If they
have everything else. So, If you cannot
give money, but have band instrument
which you can spare, remember your strug-
Cling musical fellow citizens now at the
Preside In San Francisco. Some person
could be delegated to receive and forward
donations to the proper parties.
1t is interesting to record in this con-
nection that George Cam, the well known
director of the Seventh Regiment band
which perforce has to remain at home
has already rendered his old corps valua-
BILE assistance. Col. Berry wrote to Band
j. master Cam asking him if he could fur
nish the regiment with such music as
would be useful to Chaplain Clark in the
conduct of divine service. Mr.. Cam, with
remarkable energy and patriotism at once
went to work, as there was no music ex-
tant that would serve the purpose. He
procured hymn book and in few hours
by assiduous labor, had arranged full band
parts for a number of hymns, including
America" Coward. Christian Soldiers"
1.-THE Son of Man Goes Forth to War;
NEARER, My God, to Thee" etc. These
will soon be learnt by the improvised band
and our boys Of the Seventh regiment will
sing them on the Pacific and in the far-off
Philippines.

Wanted a Driveway

A telephone message was received at
the police station last night shortly before
midnight to the effect that man living
on Ninth street east Of Alameda was beat
ing his wife. Onicer Broadhead hurried to
the place and after quite a search located
the family, by the name of Pemuta, who
reside on Ninth street east Of Wilson near
the river. The husband and wife were
sleeping peacefully and the offlcer had to
arouse them to learn the cause Of their
trouble. 1t appears that the street in front
of their house is being graded and when the
lord and master of the household learned
that his wife had failed to have the curb
cut down for a driveway and allowed 1t
to be built up straight. he proceeded to
show his displeasure by administering
ti1rashing to her. The wife had apparent
ly recovered and no arrests were made.
She will today probably retaliate on the
neighbors who telephoned to the police to
interfere In her domestic and private af-
fairs.

MORE WATER TALK
Reading Of the Communications From
the City Water Company

A recess Of ten minutes was taken about
II o'clock and upon the resumption of bus
iness City Attorney Dunn read a commu-
nication from the Los Angeles City Water
company. The document was lengthy and
required some time in reading. The full
text will be found in another column.
1.-THE water company" said Mr.. Dunn,
after he had finished reading, sis ready TO
meet the terms of the contract fully. Now
that they have made up their mind, and
the time for action is short, recommend
that the matter be referred to the special
committee, who shall investigate imme-
diate,y. The council, in the meanwhile
should study the subject also, and set a
date TO meet the water people. There is
no sense in letting this matter take the
long-winded course usual In such cases, but
let the details be looked into soon, and the
special committee meet tomorrow"
g Upon motion of Mr.. Mathus the matter
was referred to the special water commit
tee, which will meet to-day to discuss the
matter.

THE FRUIT GROWERS
About an Ordinance That May Soon
Become Law

At the request of the horticultural COM
mission and of the health department, the
city attorney presented an ordinance reg
ulating and providing for the abatemen. and
removal of fruits, trees, etc., infected with
scale or other injurious insects, In Los An
geles. This is a matter of much import
ance to those who have private orchards
or groves, but more especially to those
who raise fruit as business. This matter
is yet in the formative stage, SO far as the
municipality and the citizens are concerned.
but 1t Is apparently clear to the horticul-
tural commission.
Mr.. Fairbanks, who Is a deputy health
officer and also appointed by the horticul-
tural commission Of the county to inspect
fruits and trees, addressed the council on
this subject. In passing the ordinance as
presented by City Attorney Dunn, he said,
no expense would attach to the city. They
propose to distribute copies Of the ordi-
nance 10 people liable to be effected by it,
and also post number in conspicuous
places He told some incidents of the raw
ages of the pests, and of the terrible de-
struct.on of trees and fruits that result
from them annually. The breeding season
for them is in the early part Of June, and
he urged the council to adopt the ordinance
now so that they could commence imme-
date work of determination.
The ordinance as read makes 1t mis-
demeanor for persons to violate its provis-
ions, and makes the inspectors absolute
Judges of whether or not a tree or fruit
should be killed, or prescribed measures
taken to preserve the life. If a person is
notified to destroy the pest on his property
he must do so within ten days from the
date of receiving the notice. otherwise the
inspector is privileged to take the matter in
hand. 1t will be made unlawful, also, for
anyone TO attempt to prevent an inspector
from doing his duty in this regard. A vio-
lation of the ordinance will mean fine
of from IS to $40 or one hundred days in
Jail, or both fine and Imprisonment, at the
discretion of the judge.
Mr.. Nickel wanted the report Of the city
attorney in the matter and the ordinance
submitted adopted instantly. Others were
inclined to be not so hasty, especially Mr.
Toll WHO admitted not being familiar with
the subject. He thought it should be re-
ferred to the board of health and the city
attorney for further information. vote
proved that majority of the council en-
tertained the same opinion.

pany was referred to the special committee
on oil wells, with instructions that an i'm
vestigation be made of the reported extor-
tionate charges of j. Creswell for suspend
ing oil well cables over private property.
Mr.. Toll called the attention of the coun-
Gil to this, saying. Also that he had heard
that people had been charged 80 for lay
ing oil cables across vacant lots.

tracks will be placed upon grade, which will

Third and Main streets because Of the
curve at that point and the cramped po-
sition Of the tracks.
