WANTS TO MOVE
BUILDING BACK
Now That Money Is in Sight He Is
Willing, but Property Own
ers Withhold Damage
Fund

A number of large property owners
on Ninth street have filed a petition
with the city council asking that
Charles Mcfarland be refused a per-
init to move his building at the corner
of Ninth and Main streets five feet
back from the present front line. The
petitioners claim they will be perfectly
willing to let Mr.. Mcfarland move his
building after they have secured their
pound of flesh, which in this case is five
feet off the front of the brick building.
When the proposition for widening
Ninth street was first broached Nc
Farland appeared before the board of
public works and protested vigorously
to the improvement declaring it would
be impossible to move his building back
from the line and that if the improve
ment was forced it would cut five feet
from the front of his building.
The case was referred to a board of
referees and this board allowed Nc
Farland $4,000 for the damage the widen
ing of the street would do to his
building. The property owners who are
compelled to pay the $4,000 de-
clared the sum was eXorbitant, but al
lowed it to stand.
The work of cutting off the face of
Mr. McFarland's building has not yet
begun, and few days ago he applied
to Building superintendent Baclus for
permission to move the building back
from its present line, in this way pre-
serving the building entire and receiv-
ing the $4,000 at the same time.
When the property owners who were
forced by the board of referees to put
$4,000 extra in the assessment fund to
reimburse Mr.. Mcfarland for damage
to the building heard of his intentions
they Immediately filed a protest. At

CREDITORS ON MANS TRAIL
Chinese Firm and Others Are Anxious
to Know of 3. E. Burgess
Whereabouts

B. e. Burge, stock dealer, living at
East Thirty-eighth and Alameda
streets, is reported missing, and since
he left the city creditors have swooped
down upon him and attached his per-
sonal property.
The police have not been notified, as
it is thought that Burge has simply
left the city to avoid meeting his cred
itors and there is no criminal charge
against the man.
Burge bought and sold hogs and
among his creditors is the Chinese firm
of Tuck Lung Tai, who claim that
Burge received $1,000 with which to
purchase fat porkers.
Burgess friends say he is away on
business and no worry need be felt
about him.

PASADENA, April 7.-Some weeks
ago Miss Marion Girdlestone, the ell
ficient secretary of the newly organized
associated charities, set on foot a
scheme for taking care Of the INDECENT
consumptivcs of Pasadena and Vicin-
ity
She modestly proposed that the ne"
society solicit funds for the purchase
of a small plat of ground near the foot
hills to the north of the city ON which
people suffering from the ravages of
this dread disease might erect tents
or tent cottages, practically rent free,
and there live and combat in an of-
fective way the great white plague. A
committee was appointed to see what
chance there was of securing the prop
erty needed for this purpose. Thus far
this committee has not reported.
But the suggestion thus made appears
to have APPEALED nightly to the popular
reason and from present indications
will have results the magnitude OF
which Miss Girdlestone only dreamed.
This afternoon in the police court
room in the city hall a group of prob
ably forty energetic men of affairs
prominent medical men and public
spirited women discussed the question
in all it's numerous phases. The
gathering was presided over by DR..

of the show and was accompanied by
Mayor William Waterhouse. whose

Ell outside being propitious the space
around the banks of flowers was over
crowded all day to the great salts
faction of the gardeners in charge.
Financially. as well as artistically. the
affair was a success. and this assures
a second show next year on still
larger scale.
One of the most unique features of
the show was the exhibition of aquatic
plants in the great tank of water in
the center of the room. J. S. Glass
cock announced this afternoon that he
would give a cup for the flowers in
this exhibit judged the finest, there
having been no provision made for this
