COUNCIL PUTS PILE. DRIVER
ON HYPERION PIER WORK
Piles Are Replaced as Fast as They
Are Washed Out, but Perma-
nent Structure VIII Be
Erected

The city council has taken further
action authorizing City Engineer Ho-
mer Hamlin to place stationary. pile
driving. apparatus near the outfall sew
er pier at Hyperion, in order to replace
piles as rapidly as they are washed out
by the tides.
Unless the driver is kept there it will
cost the city hundreds of dollars extra
to replace the lost piles by separate
contracts.
On February Engineer Hamlin rec
commended that he be directed to keep
a pile-driver at the site until such time
as the city has funds available to erect
a permanent structure. He also rec
commended that $500 be appropriated
for immediate use and an additional
$2700 to allow for the maximum esti-
mated expense to maintain the pier
until July 1.
The city council soon after set aside
the $500 requested (Which is already
spent) and authorized entering into a
contract to maintain a pile-driyer at a
cost not exceeding 50 day, but did not
appropriate the $2700 asked for. evil
IDENTIFY expecting that the expense of
driving piles would be covered by fu-
ture acquisitions.
This proved unsatisfactory and ad-
ditional legislation was passed.

REV. DANA BARTLETT Is
PRAISED IN RESOLUTIONS

The resolution unanimously adopted
in praise of Rev. Dana w. Bartlett
and his work at the Bethlehem insti-
tute was one of the main events of
the morning session of the Congrega-
tional Fellowship conference yesterday.
The resolution brought out much dis
cussion among the ministers, Rev. Mr..
Bartlett taking part in the refutation
of statements regarding the situatior
at Bethlehem institute.
The conference was held at the First
Congregational church and much in
terest was shown among the 200 dele
gates present.
The morning session from 10:30 to
1880 was given over to the pas
tors, who responded to the roll call and
who spoke on the general topic of
Personal and Parish Problems"
At the same hours session for min
listers wives and women delegates was
held by Mrs. Warren F. Day. The
subject of discussion was "What Can
Women Do to Promote the Fellowship
of the Churches?' After the discussion
a woman's auxiliary was formed to
promote the fellowship work of the
churches. The officers elected were:
Mrs. C. P. Dorland. Long Beach, presi-
dent; Mrs. j. F. Loba, Pasadena, first
vice president; Mrs. G.. H. Gates, Clare
mont, second vice president; Mrs. j. Fl.
Mallows, Los Angeles, secretary and
treasurer.

the prime of life-gray haired but well
preserved, genial and of striking per-
sonality. Determination, strenuosity,
sincerity and benevolence illumined his
face. He has a strong, clear eye,
firm mouth, and he is quick to consider
and determine.
1 regard him as a man who makes
few mistakes, for he is guided by
worldly and spiritual knowledge OF
men and conditions which will not per-
NIT him to go wrong in his judgments.
"I want to be shown through the
institute, Mr.. Bartlett" I said to him.
''I want to look over it carefully"
He consented congenially and per-
sonally took me over the premises,
showing me into the rooms, the
ward" the kitchen, the dispensary
and other departments, many of which

1 spent one hour with Mr.. Bartlett,
going over the big establishment, and
during that time he was aceosted by
no fewer than thirty men and women
in various kinds of trouble. Several
he directed as to where they could get
employment; others he advised as to
how to collect wages due them but held
back; others he provided with orders
for meals or provisions, and so on,
until I came to realize that this man,
who was taking me through the build
ings, was indeed a sort of father, coun-
sc ellor, provider, guardian and custo-
dian of no less than two or three
hundred souls, who looked to him for
everything in the way of temporary
necessity.
Homes for the Poor
Among other things that I saw on my
tour with Mr.. Bartlett were a row of
cottages which he kept fitted up for
destitute families. In one of them was
family of Bohemians, in another a
family of Mexicans, in still another a
family of Italians, all of whom Mr..
Bartlett had kindly taken in when no
other door, they said, was open to
them.
Scores of children were playing in
the yards and alley about these cot
tages. Their fathers were away work.
ing, but as they earned only $1.15 a day
and as some of the families contained
from six to nine persons, the scanty
wages of the father availed but little
toward meeting their expenses. Yet,
poorly attired as many of them were,
there was a school at hand, and in it
they could study night or day; and
there was a bath nearby for which they
need pay nothing. And there was a
free dispensary. If they were i'll there
were free drugs. If they were hungry
there were free provisions. So,
thought, after all these people should
be thankful-they should be thankful
that the world contains a heart so big
that it can feel for all of them;
soul so generous that it can conse-
crate its efforts in their own behalf;
life so unselfish that it can give its
energies, it's hopes and labors to the
cause of destitute humanity.
went away from the Bethlehem in
stitute feeling that I had secured a
deep insight into the genuine charity;
that had learned a great lesson in sac
rifice and that after all, despite the sin
and suffering of the world, it is a good
old place in some respects with not a
| few good people.

READY TO CONTRACT FOR
SPRING AND MAIN LIGHTS
Ornamental Post Illumination Will
Expire Next Week and Emer-
geney Resolution Is
Passed

The board of public works yesterday
called the councils attention to the
fact that the contract for furnishing
the necessary electric current for the
lighting of the ornamental posts on
Spring street from Temple to Ninth
street and Main street southerly from
Ninth street to the easterly line of
Broadway, produced, will expire March
8, 1908.
The board has invited bids for fur
nishing the necessary electric current
for lighting the posts for one year
thereafter, the bids to be received Fri
day. March 6.
Should no proposals or bids be re-
ceived on that date for furnishing
the current or should satisfactory
contract not be duly executed by
March 8, 1908, 1t will require further
authorization from the city council to
continue the lighting of the posts.
The board therefore presented res
olution authorizing the board to pro-
ceed under the emergency provisions
of the city charter to have Spring
street and the portion of Main street
lighted with electricity during such
portion of the month of March as may
not be covered by a contract regularly
executed.
