SHOWS DISPOSITION
TO REDUCE SALARIES
WAGE FOR LODGING HOUSE
INSPECTOR LESSENED
City Council, in Re-estabIishing Office
Abolished Last Summer, Cuts
Down Monthly Stipend
for Its Holder

For the first time in its existence the
city council as a whole yesterday
showed a disposition to cut salaries,
and the members of the finance COM
mittee-Wallace, Dromgold and Blan-
chard-could hardly believe the evil
dence which came to their ears
The case in which this unusual symp-
tom was shown is in an ordinance es-
tablishing the office of lodging house
inspector, an office which was recently
abolished by the council.
The ordinance came from the city at
torney with a salary of 500 month,
but when the council concluded its ac-
ton on the proposed measure it was
reduced to $50 a month for the first
wear and 800 the second year. but was
made 500 for the third year and all
subsequent years.
Until the council abolished the posi-
ton last summer the salary was S1lt
a month. The place is re-established
because the auditor declares the city
has been losing money, there being nc
one to enforce the lodging house ordi-
nance, which provides for the payment
of a license fee, graduated according &c
the number of rooms.
Another matter in which the cOunci
exhibited frugality was the request 81
Tax Collector Z. r. Johnson for an IN
crease in salaries in his department
Mr.. Johnson prepared and presented al
ordinance providing for an increase Of
salaries, amounting in all to $95 {
month. and for one additional deputy

CHINESE LOTTERY TICKET
SELLER PLEADS GUILTY

Police Believe He Is One of Ring
Regularly Engaged in Illicit

Guilty" was the plea of Lee Young
the Chinese arraigned in Justice Roses

of selling tickets in a Chinese lottery,
in violation of the city ordinance.

Illicit traffic of the forbidden lottery

yesterday morning Young promptly
pleaded guilty and was fined $50 From

CITY COUNCIL APPROVES
SAN PEDRO'S RATE DEMAND
Authorizes Municipal Clerk to Sign
Resolution of Trustees of Seaport
Asking S. p. to Grant Ter
nnnal Tariff

The council yesterday authorized the
city clerk to sign resolution of the
board of trustees of San Pedro asking
the Southern Pacific to grant terminal
rates at the harbor city.
1t is the plan of the San Pedro Of
ficials to have the resolution signed by
every municipal and commercial body
and by all wholesalers and jobbers in
the county.
The resolution points out that San
Pedro is a terminal of the Southern
Pacific, and by reason of the rapid de-
velopment of the harbor has right
to expect consideration as port of
entry. 1t asks the same terminal rates
be granted as are enjoyed by San Diego.

SWINGING VASES FOR TABLE.
Add Attractlveness to Arrangements
Of Flowers and Vines.

Bowls and baskets to hang from the
center chandelier or from cranes
fastened to the window or door frames
and intended to hold small flowers
break up the stiff effect so often pro.
duced by a series of vases standing
on the tables and mantels. Rough
bark and colored Indian baskets suit
the furnishings of bungalows and
country houses better than do the
decorated china ones, that both serve
the same purpose.
Such bowl above the center OF the
dining table has some advantages
over the ordinary vase. Flowers and
vines can be arranged with a more
graceful and natural appearance than
in bowl placed on the table. There
is better opportunity to get delicate
effects with blossoms and green
things. Small flowers lend themselves
particularly well to this decorative
treatment. When the bowl is not too
small then growing bulbs and plants
can be set in bit of rich earth and
allowed to grow In their swinging
home. The bowls come in round and
oblong shapes. They are supported
by small gilt chains or by silken cords
which are attached to tiny handles on
either side of the bowl or boat.
There should be little decoration on
the bowl itself II 1t is intended to hold
flowers.

Dahlias of various colors are now
very popular because they are so
easily grown. Several days. and

blossoming period when the tubers

they are planted in the garden. This
may be done in a hot bed or a box

is done after they have been sprouted
and rooted preparatory to planting out.

The dahlia Is most satisfactory
when only one stalk is allowed to
grow. This will form many branches
and make larger flowers than could
be obtained from several stalks
growing on one tuber. Plenty OF
moisture and fertility are required to
develop the plants and insure bril-
liant colors. Keep the soil loose
and mellow about the roots of each
plant Do not allow any of the
blossoms to ripen seed-pick them
