REPORTS RECEIVED.
Petworth Association Meets and Com
siders Various Business Projects

Owing to the absence of both the presi-
dent and vice president of the Petworth
Cltzens Association the regular monthly
meeting of that organization, held last
evening in Loff!er's Hall, was presided over
by Mr.. Myerhofer. who was called 10 the

Particle.
Under the head OF reports of officers the
secretary read a letter recently written to
General Harries in reference to the reno
val or renovation of the old street car used
as at waiting room at the Richmond street
terminus of the Soldiers Home line and
the reply was that the matter would receive
attention as soon as the general manager
returned to the city.
A letter from Chief Belt to Mr.. Baer was
read stating that nothing in the shane of
better fire protection for Petworth could be
given this year, the estimates had gone
in. He stated, however, the matter would
have his attention the coming year.
In refence to improved street car service
Mr.. Stoss reported it as his understanding
that promise had been made by the rail-
way officials to run through cars to Ia
Roma Park within twelve months from the
date of the establishment at that point of
the headquarters of the Seventh Day Ad-
ventistS, which would mean about eleven
months from the present date. The chair
stated 1t as his belief that through cars will
be put on the line in the spring but that
in any event the railroad committee would
confer with the committees of Congress on
the subject.
The secretary read petition addressed to
First Assistant Postmaster General Robt J.
Wynne asking that a branch post office be-
established in Petworth. and that daily coll
iecuonS be made at 1915 p. m from the
letter boxes at Omaha, Richmond and
Quincy streets. and on motion a special
committee of three was ordered appointed
to wait on the postmaster in reference to
the same The chair named Messrs I.e
Due, Stoss and Weir as such committee
Mr.. Stoss, the secretary, was directed to
write to the Commissioners asking that
they put in an intake at Savannah avenue
and Sth street, and also at eth and Quincy
streets to take off the surface water that
overfowS the sidewalks and leaves them
covered with mud.
1t was decided to change the hour OF meet
ing hereafter from clock to T:30 o'clock
p. m. each month
Several complaints were made about the
insanitary condition of the sewer trap at
the junction of Brightwood and New Hamp-
shire avenues. and in order to abate the
unbearable odor arising therefrom the mat
ter was referred to the health department
At the suggestion of Mr.. Stoss Messrs
w. n. Cromwell and F. CT. Pierson were
proposed for membership in the association

I'VE may congratulate ourselves that the

full attendance of members in both the
common council and the board Of alder
men. A report was received from the
finance committee on resolution directing
the city engineer to cause the removal OF
the debris from recent fire which de-
stroyed one of the outbuldings of the Co
lumbia fire engine house, and that plans
for a new building be prepared. The COM
mittee recommended. the appropriation OF
the sum of $500 for the erection of the new
building. making the amount less than
$1,000 in order that the matter might be
acted on that night by both branches of
council. This was necessary on account of
a provision of the new state constitution.
