Councilman Sisson. probably with this
idea in View, proposes, IL is said, to re-
tain $500 more, In case more mud than in
estimated should have TO be removed,
and this would then leave $4,000 avaflabls
for vacation schools and Fairgrounds.
The plan, IL will be readily seen, IN n

fortunately there are always, in every

MIGHT BE HAZARDOUS.
Several members OF the city council,
men of years of experience said this
morning, that the taking OF the sum OF
5000 from harbor appropriation for thu
purpose named might be very hazardous.
for there was no knowing really how much
money would be needed for the harbor
work.
One OF these gentlemen, who was some
years ago connected with the committee
on harbors, said that very frequently
matters cropped up which neither COM
mittee or the city engineer had AIKEN into
consideration. and this did not mean neg
ligence by any means upon the part OF
any Of these gentlemen.

the committee on harbor OF the city
council, and IL Is from the appropriation
for harbor work that he proposes 10
draw the $1,000 which will go a long way
towards running the vacation schools
during the summer months.
AS no doubt is nesdily recalled, tho
finance committee reported TO the COM
mon council Monday night on the petit
ton of the school committee for an adj
ditional appropriation of $1,000 for the es-
tablishment and maintenance. of vacation
schools an Fairgrounds.
Quite a number or persons who are
prominently identified with educational
institutions and affairs told the finance
committee. at a hearing, that the pro-
posed vacation schools and Fairgrounds
were very desirable. and brought for
ward arguments intending 10 show that
any money that the city might expend In
this way would be for the general good.
The committee on finance does not dis
pute any OF tho arguments brought for
ward, but il is confronted with very
serious condition, and that Is lack of
money, and I'm consequence the commit
tee reported back 10 the common council
with recommendation that the petit
TONERS have leave TO withdraw.
Then IL was thai Councilman Sisson
asked that the matter he laid on the ta-
