Cathedral Bishop Johnson presided
and celebrated holy communion at

ling statistics before the delegates re-

WHAT BECOMES
OF CITY GARBAGE
SO PER CENT OF REFUSE IS
NOT CREMATED
POLICE DEPARTMENT BEER
investigation by Health Department
Reveals Startling Facts Regard
Ing Collection and Disposal
Of Garbage

But two tons Of the 100 tons of gar
bage per day produced in Los Angeles
is being cremated by c. A. Alexander,
the garbage contractor, according to re-
ports made to the board of health last
night by Sanitary Inspector Furtsch.
Alexander is supposed to collect the
garbage of the city and cremate 1t in
his crematory south of the city. For
this the city has been paying him 1890
per month, and recently $3.50 per month
was added, making q total of $2240
Many complaints have been received
by the health department regarding the
dump which adjoins the crematory and
where the tin cans and other incom-
bustibles are supposed to be dumped.
The sanitary inspector found that a
great deal Of garbage was being put
on this dump. He says he asked some
men who were doing the dumping and
they told him in each case that the
garbage was so mixed with incombus-
tibles that they could not burn 1t.
Every citizen of Los Angeles knows
that the garbage collectors refuse in
all cases to receive refuse IL 1t is mixed
in any way, and the board of health
declares that the collectors mix the gar
bage themselves and then throw the
whole mass on the dump to save the
expense of burning it.
Garbage Fed to Hogs
The health department says that Los
Angeles produces 100 tons of garbage
per day. What becomes of the ninety
eight tons day which does not reach
the crematory? 1t is fed to hogs and
part of 1t thrown on the dump or else
where, they say, adding that it's cheap
er for the contractor. 1t is disclosed he
collects less than ten tons per day.
The report of the city chemist showed
that one sample of beer for the police
department had been examined. The
board desired to know what this means,
and wondered if the dry Sunday had
even affected the department to the
extent that it was about to lay in
supply and wanted only pure beer.
Another indication of the fear that
Los Angeles is to be a dry town was
noticed when the board was asked to
grant 127 permits for the selling of milk
| in the city.
The ordinance giving the health de-
partment power to destroy condemned
fruit and vegetables was read before
the board and it was decided to recon-
mend to the council that the ordinance
be adopted.

MONROvIA, May 17-The nine
teenth anniversary of the founding of
the city of Monrovia, year of prog
ressive work by the board of trade and
the passing of a period of remarkable
growth were celebrated here this even
ing by a banquet at Hotel La Vista
Grande, at which over a hundred men
were seated at one table and talked
of the city's past and future.
II. S. Mckee, who has served as
president of the board of trade for the
past year. presided as postmaster at
an immense horseshoe table, where
guerites carried out the national colors.
Frank j. Cornes, elected president for
the ensuing year, responded to the toast
of "Monrovia." In very bright address
Father j. j. Sheehy told what the board
of trade is and what it should be.
Father Sheehy laid emphasis upon
the individuality of the members of the
board and declared that, given a man
who prosecuted his own business with
dispatch, he should also develop that
unselfshness which made him attend
to the business of the town with the
same initiative. He should be in edu-
cation, alertness and ability, not the
man of yesterday, or last week, not
the man of the peaceful. contented dis
position, but the active man looking
every day for an improvement. He
dwelt on his own relations with the
board of trade and urged them to ex-
tend to all newcomers the hand of
good will in the name of universal
charity, and to uphold the reputation
of their town in morals as well as in
enterprise.
Many prominent men from Los An
geles were present, Judge B. N. Smith
responding to the toast Southern Cal
ifornia." Among others were General
Johnstone Jones, Judge H. A. Price and
Colonel Tom Thornton. There were
representatives from El Monte. Duarte,
Sierra Madre and other valley towns.
