The regular meeting of the city govern
ment will be held. this evening. when sew
eral matters of minor Importance are to
come up. One of the most interesting
things scheduled is the matter of the bill
Hard hall licenses. The matter was
brought up at the last meeting and at
that time provoked considerable discus
sion. Several of the owners of billiard
halls have applied for renewals Of their
licenses. Objections are raised on the
ground that one of the proprietors per-
mts gambling. AS there are objections
to granting this license, the point is raised
that licenses ought not to be granted the
proprietors of other places. AT the last
meeting the vote was a tie. The matter
of having the history of Gardiner written
will be brought up, and it is thought
there will be slight opposition, as there is
a feeling that the records of the history
of the city ought to be preserved. Again.
| it is thought some observance should be
made of the city's semi-centennial.
