other Matters of Interest Will
Be Discussed.

Lukens' opera house will be the
scene of an unusually important meet
ing of the Civic club tonight. The
nall was donated by Jonas Lukens for
the use of the club this evening, as it
was thought the interest in the meet
ing would bring out a crowd too large

erto
Among other things, the report of
the committee on securing permanent
headquarters will doubtless be heard.
Three propositions will be offered-one
regarding the rooms above the Shaw
nee State bank. at Norris street and
Kansas avenue; one from Tom James,
WHO Is offering his rooms above sta
ton A. at S22 Kansas avenue. and
Firth & Short are also negotiating
with the committee. They make a
proposition for the club to use their
rooms in the second story of the auto
garage at 913 Kansas avenue. The adj
Vantages of each place will be eX-
planned to the club and likely vote
will be taken about the matter.
1t is possible that the committee to
secure the overall factory for the
North side may have a report ready.
Inc committee was continued over
from last meeting. President Billiard
will probably name the standing COM
mittees.
1t is also a matter of speculation as
to what will be done regarding the
CITY political situation.
The committee Of twenty, which was
appointed to secure the location of the
state fair grounds north of Garfield
park, is expected to make some defin-
lite report. However, at present the
disposition of the committee seems
that the best thing to do is to keep
the matter before the public. Other
things of Importance will also be dis
cussed
The gas mains and the poles of the
Edison company which are interfering
with the excavating for the north ex-
tensions of the Melan bridge are be-
ing set to one side out of the way. but
the Western Union, the street car COM
pany and the waterworks company up
to noon were not doing anything to-
ward replacing poles, tracks and water
mains which are delaying the work
mentioned, according to A. d. Johnson,
in charge of the extension. He fears
that if the concerns mentioned do not
get busy at once he can not go on with
his undertaking at advantage. He says
that he has again notified the corpor
ations which are tardy in complying
with his requests but as yet he can get
no action from them.
