ARRANGING FOR
MEMORIAL DAY
OWNERS OF OPERA HOUSE TEN
DER 1T TO LADIES FOR THE
EXERCISES

The owners of the Grand opera
house, through Manager Finney, have
kindley donated the use of the opera
house to the ladies of the Memorial
Association to hold the exercises On
April 26, Memorial Day. This kind
act is greatly appreciated by the lad
les and all interested in the celebra
ton of this day. Two years ago the
owners, through Mr.. Finney, did tn"
same thing, and through some misun
derstanding the name of the Grand
was omitted in the letter of thanks
sent out by the ladies, they greatly
apprecited the kindness of Mr.. Finney
at that time, and regretted that the
name cf the Grand opera house was
left out.
Major Frank Dunn has been appoint
ed marshal of the day, and Captain
J. P. TwCmey, chief OF staff for the
Memorial Day parade, and all the dill
ferent unifrom commands, fire de-
.rartment, police force and veterans
have been invited to participate il
the exercises. The First regiment
band will furnish the music durin}
the parade and a special program has
been arranged by Chief Musician John
Baumgartner, for the opera house
The complete program will be given
in The News on next Sunday.

REPRESENTATIVES OF GEORGIA
ENGINEERING COMPANY IN
THE CITY YESTERDAY
Met With the Public Works Commit
tee and Were Told Why the City Of
Brunswick Had Refused to Pay
Their Paving Bill.

At a meeting of the public works
committee yesterday afternoon, at
W--ch representatives of the Georgia
Engineering Company, of Augusta,
were present, the question of a settle
ment for the paving of Newcastle
street, between Gloucester and Mans
field, was again taken up, and while
no definite announcement was made
by the contracting company, it is be
ieved that the officills are anxious
to close the matter.
The difference existing between the
city of Brunswick and the Augusta
paving concern is we'll known to the
people of the city. The firm was Civ
en- the contract for the paving OF two
blocks On Newcastle street. While
the work was in progress it was seen
that the specifications, neither as to
the material used nor the clrbing.
were being complied with AMI the
contracting COMPANY was 50 nC+ifieG,
but the work was continued, and a bill
in the full amount of the bid submitted
was rendered to the city.
The bill was not audited, but was
submitted to the committee on pub
lie works, and that committee render
ed a report, recommending that it not
be paid. 1t was claimed that the
company had net filled it's contract;
the material was not UP to specifica.
tiOnS, and the company was notifies
that when the contract was carried
out the bill would be paid.
Since that time the matter has been
open, though several communications
have been exchanged between the city
and the Augusta concern. AT the
meeting yesterday the officials a9keG
the committee just what their com
plciut was. They told the objections
put them in writing and the repre-
sentatives were taken ever the worN
and shown just where their company
had failed to comply with the sDecif1
cations under which tde contract wag
awarded. They were also informed
that when ever the work was done to
the satisfaction of the committee, OF
rather when done in accordance Witf
specifications, the bill would be rromt
1y paid.
The Augusta people had nothing
to give out as to their Intentions but
it is assumed that they vii! eli

The building, which Is a brand new
one, having only recently been erect
ed and owned by j. .. Councilman, is
a very handsome and well constructed
one, and could net have been better
suited for newspaper plant if it had
been erected especially for that pur-

time being almost in the center of the

which it has occupied for years AS
a matter of fact the present quarters
are inadequate, and, as number OF

manent home, and in lae new G rel
man building was found exactly what
was needed. With several lal5e rooms

tie necessary work can be d0ie on
the new home, in the way of founda-

the work of removing will begin.
The arrangement cf the Office will
be more satisfactory 70 the force oi

as the new building will provide sepa

I and altogether it will give The News
very convenient and handsome qua'-
ters.
