Tho week In the City Hall will begin

on many ordinances and resolutions
proposing street paving, sewers, gut

Of interest.
1t will have nothing to interfere
with the disposition of the bus

with it without much argument or

The Fire Commissioners will dispose
of the months routine, and it Is like

the Council in authorizing 1t by pro-

of men at the downtown stations from
call men to station men. The Board
will dispense with new engine, for
which appropriation was made In the
