crowd.
The Roberts boys had the home team
badly sbutfaloed" up to the sixth inning,
however scoring four times their first
inning and keeping the lead up to the
seventh, when the locals got their bat
ting clothes on and proceeded to rap the
sphere all around the place, and at the
same time held their opponents down to
whitewashes and few scores when their
turn came to bat. At the end Of the
sixth inning the score stood s to 6 in
| favor of the Roberts team and from that
bad beginning the locals plucked victory
out of defeat and gave the home rooters
something to yell about
The only double play was made by
Roberts, William Ray throwing runner
out from third at second and second cut

 The old matter of the Plant System damaging Bay Street by diverting a wa ter course 20 that it ran along the street and created big washout, was again brought up and discussed. Finally. Cap tain Finley was instructed to bring Butt against the road if 1t stili refused to re- pair the damages.

 Dr. Thorington and Mayor Joseph ap- peared before the Board to ask that the county share the expense of the conduct of the pest house. The expenses since the 1st of February amounted to approxi- mately S2s5. Since the 1st of February. forty-three cases of smallpox had been cared for at the pest house. Out of this number only eight were from the city limits. They asked that the county bear half the expense. The Board thought that this was reasonable. but there was some discussion as to who would pay for the guards that would be needed when prisoners from the county jail were sent to the pest house.

 to Standing Committee.

 After the reading of the message on mo- ton of Alderman Tooie 1t was referred to the standing Committee on Markets.
 The message was as follows:
 To the City Council of Montgomery:
 Gcntlemen--At recent meeting of your honorable body the following resolution was adopted:
 Be it resolved. That the Mayor be and he Is hereby instructed to investigate the present conditions in regard to the mar ket and green srocers and report to the Council what in his opinion would afford more competition and con- venience for the public"
 In response to said resolution beg to submit the following:
 The present condition of the market house needs no explanation. 1t Is well known to nearly every one and has been dwelt upon by me in my annual report to the Council since l have occupied the executive chair.

While this work has secured to our city a magnicfient auditorium, 1t has practi- .caIly destroyed the market portion of the building. This was quickly realized by your efficient Market Committee. and upon their recommendation, steps were taken by you to remedy this trouble. Complications, however. with the Audi torium Company has 90 far prevented the alterations proposed. earnestly recom- mend that the work be authorized at the earliest possible moment.

Both the last Council and to the propriety of altering the present market house. and the delay has not beer their fault nor mine.
 In my opinion the abandonment of ex. isting green grocery regulations would be very detrimental to our people. The ex- perience of other cities has demonstrated this. Several years ago the city of Mo bile abandoned the public market Idea for sale of fresh meats. sto.. but in less than twelve months re-estabiished the same.

Besides. 1t has been found in other cities that where green groceries are scattered. consumrs are confined to what the dealer may have on hand at the time for their needed supplies. Whereas. in central market, with the least loss of time. they can select from several dealers.
 If the growth of the territory of the city is such that requires 1t. there would be additional markets. owned and con- trolled by the city.
 In addition to the above. the repeal of the present market house ordinances would mean the loss to the city of a large amount which Is now paid by several dealers whose capital and faciii- ties enable them to operate green grocery establishments outside of the market house by payment of license required under the present law.
 Respectfully.
