OPENING
Of Summit Lake Park
Theatre.
II Was Very Successful and At.
tended by a Large Audience.

With dash of splendor spontane-
summer play season at Summit Lake
Park theater started off last night in
a manner so pleasing and satisfactory
as to assure success for the entire sea-
son. The eXcellency of car service this
year will result in great advantage
to the management of the theater, as
1t provides better accommodations to
playgoers and consequently means
larger audiences. Last night there
were eleven hundred people at the
aheater to welcome the advent of
amusements provided by Mr.. Lou G..
Lee, who returns as manager of the
play features of the theater, after a
successful winter season with the
Keith circuit in New England. The
audience was delighted with the
whole show, it's approval being dem
onstrated by prolonged and vigorous
applause. The theater's own orches-
ira this year is prominent attraction,
producing superb music and accompan,
iments. Only the best features that
can be obtained by careful, independ-
ent booking will be presented at Sum,
NIT Lake park theater, and Menches
Bros, the proprietOrs, have made some
extensive improvements in the theater
which will add greatly to the cOnven.
ience and pleasure of patrons. Ev-
erybody who visited the theater last

Just before the show began, The
Taggarrs, sensational gymnasts, gave
a grand open-air exhibition in front of
the theater. Their work on aerial
horizontal bars was especially interest
ing and marvellous.
In the theater the illustrated songs
by Bob. Rice and Chas. Harvey were
very popular. The songs were the la.
test American favorites and We're CIV.

pictures shown while they were be

A Plan to Pay Police
and Firemen
It Was Immediately De-
cIared impossible.
Many, Matters Discussed by City
Solons.

The City Council knocked fat the
ordinance to issue $4,000 of addition
al fire department construction bonds
Monday night. Although the ordi-
nance passed its first reading a week
ago by the Republican members vot-
ing for it, every vote was against 1t
Monday night, except that of Presi-
dent A. #. Koons.
The reason for this was that many
of the COuncilmen supposed that with
this $4,000 the CITY commissioners
could complete the work remaining
undone and pay up all claims. The
facts are that debts already incurred
would consume the $4,000, and it
was decided when the matter was talk
ed over that all the creditors of the
special fund should wait, since some
must wait anyway. The result is like.
ly to he n few lawsuits
The payroll ordnance came in for
much discussion. The principal item
was one for S14,2Sl5O for the pay
ment of certain bonds which will soon
fan due. These represent the citys
share of the Wooster ave, Maple ST..
Crosby st, Ellwood ave. and other i'm.
provements for the payment of which
the CITY COMMISSIONERS failed to make
| provision in the various Improvement
funds.
The Finance committee reported ia

vote, after much discussions: Ayes:

dell Solrick, Walker. Nays: Foster,

num-
City Clerk Chas. II. Isbcll stated to
the Council that the money for the
payment of this $ll,2S7.5O was not in
the fund To De drawn upon. but that
for the sake OF. the citys credit among
bond buyers, and to he able to sell
bonds in future the item really should
he allowed. This was done by the fol-
lowing vote: Ayes: Gnuthirr, hin,
Rooms, Linchan, Mcrz. Piske. Rice,
Sawyer Scidcll, Sorrlck, Walker.
Nays: Foster. Martin, Winum.
An item in the pay roll making an
appropriation OF 500 for Memorial
day and a few other items excited
some comment.
THAT SEWER.
Mr.. Foster inquired whether any
one had looked up the responsibility
of bonuSmcu of contractor who fuiInI
TO complete the Wolf Ledge sewer.
Commissioner McNlillen said the so
llcitor had the matter in hand but Mr..
Foster wanted to know why. He was
appointed n committee OF one to &C
into the subject.
An ordinance TO permit electrical de-
vices to he suspended over the streets
at a height OF 10 feet or more was re-

This is an amendment of the slgn or
dinancc.
An ordinance to issue bonds for the
Kolb st. Improvement called from Mr..
Foster the inquiry as TO whether there
was money on hand to pay for the
city's share of the work.
Clerk lsbell stated that the best time
to take up those matters was when
the resolution TO improve was intro
duced; that after nearly all the .legis-
lntion great deal of expense had
been incurred and this could be saved
If il was desired not 70 make the inn
provement. The city has money for
Kolb St, however, and the ordinance
was passed.
An ordinance requiring peddlcrs and
others receiving licenses from the
city, TO exhibit II license tag, was re-
ferred to the Ordinance committee.
Mr.. Walker wanted to know what
the solicitor had done with reference
to trains running beyond the speed
limit. Mr. llsgate emphatlcally de-
clared that he was not the Police de
partment nor the city Clerk.
Mr.. Walker also wanted teamsters
and others to he required to keep to

ting off corners in turning from one
street to another. Mr.. Esgate said
that it was only custom of the road
that required teams or others to keep

Mr.. Walker also desired that an or
dinance be passed transferring money
from one fund to another SO that po-
liccmen and hrcmcn could be paid.
Mr.. Esgate said it was impossible.
Mr. Martin asked If that had not
been done at one time.
Clerk lShcll said he had been un.
able to find n record of it, though he
had searched.
Mr.. Winum desired that the money
of each sewer district be kept in Il sep.
arate fund, This will he done, lest
one district should pay for work done
| In another.
Mr., Winum asked that an estimate
of the City'S share of the cost of al
improvements he sent To the Council
