FOR ENGINE HOUSE
Recent Fire Near the Santa Fe Depot
Brings Out Petition for More
Water and Hy-
drantS

Rarely does petition reach the city
hall in which so many millions of capi-
tai are represented as In that filed yes
terday with the fire commissioners ask
ing for better fire protection in the dis
trict between Alameda street, the Los
Angeles river, Turner and Palmetto
streets.
AS was demonstrated by the Par
malice -DohrmanE warehouse fire April
II last the water supply is declared to
be insufficient, the water hydrants be-
ing remote.
The petitioners say that in this rapid
ly growing wholesale and manufacture
ing district, where much capital is be-
ing invested, the low pressure In the
mains makes 1t very menacing and
dangerous, as the mains now laid were
originally intended for a small residen-
tial section and are wholly inadequate.
The petitioners ask that an engine
house be established at or near the
middle of this district as soon as pos
sible, together with sufficient hydrants
and that the water supply be proper
tionately increased.
Among the signers heading the lists
are the Globe Grain and Milling COM

SENDS CONSCIENCE
MONEY TO CITY
BUILDING Department GETS
CONTRIBUTION
Remittance Puzzles Auditor and Legal
Advisers, as 1t Cannot Be
Properly Credited
Now

Building Superintendent ]. J. Backus
yesterday received a 81 contribution
to the conscience fund and is puzzled
what to do with it.
Deputy Mark c. Cohn found the bills
neatly enclosed in the mornings mail
in an envelope postmarked Pasadena
and bearing no other evidence of iden-
tity of the writer.
The letter read:
Find herewith 81 that 1 feel be-
longs to the city building depart
ment. Some time ago / built four
houses in Los Angeles and the val
uation was not put at quite the full
value. These houses cost about
$1250 each, and were put in at less
than cost, $1,000 or so, If 1 remember
right.
/ have been called upon to live
an honest life by Jesus Christ, my
Saviour, even in small things. AS
l am unknown to you l sign no
name.
Deputy Cohn learned at the auditors
office that no fund existed in which
the money could be property placed,
and In the city attorneys office he got
similar information. He was advised
to try to induce the sender to give his
name or at least the address on the
permit so that the money could be
properly credited. Otherwise the city
will have to take steps to create a
proper fund for conscience moneys so
that the cash will be available when
needed.

A smart gown for afternoon or any
nice wear is here illustrated. Like many
other of the really stylish gowns of the
season, it is rather plainly made, but
its effect Is excellent. The tucked waist
in overblouse effect is made over a
fitted lining and displays all the most
approved features of the present mode,
including the indispensable yoke and
the Japanese sleeve. The undersleeves
may be made in full or shorter lengths,
as desired. The skirt is cut on the new
six-piece lines, consisting of back and
front cores and upper and lower side
sections, the latter being Joined in
overskirt effect. This mode would de-
velop very attractively in broadcloth,
silk or ary OF the new fabrics, lace or
some contrasting materials being sug-
gested for the yoke and undersleeves.
To make the dress in the medium size
requires Az yards of 22-inch goods for
the waist and 9% yards of the same
width for the skirt.
Two patterns. 60S3, sizes, 80 to AZ
inches bust measure. 6081, sizes, 20
to "a inches waist measure.
The price of these patterns is 20 cents,
but either will be sent upon receipt of
10 cents.
