ANNUAL SPRING CLEANUP TO BEGIN NEXT WEEK
 SAYS DOUGLAS COUNCIL

DOUGLAS, May S.-Now is the Winter of our dscontent made the reader probably knows the rest of it. Anyway, when this part ol the country was locked in the ehl- brace of Old Bory there was some excuse for dumping ashes and tin cans any place to get rid of them. But now that winters gloom has been dispelled by gladsOme Spring. there Is no excuse for those winter ashes and tin cans being permitted to repose in all their offensiveness where they were dumped last Win ter. So said the City Council night before last and May 15 was desig- mated as the date when all debris that is offensive to the eye, repellant to the nostrils and objectionable to refined sensibilities must be relegated to obscurity--cleared away and made as though it had not been.
 All the members of the Council with the exception of Martin were present Tuesday night and consider able business, mostly of a routine na ture, was transacted.
 A communication in the form of an annual report from Fire Chief Langseth stated that the losses by fire from April l, 1917, to April L 1918, within the city limits was ap proximately $11,000, mostly covered by insurance; that the loss last year was greater than any one year since 1911, the year of the big fire.
 Clerk Bennett reported that he had written to five coast cities in his eff forts to sell or dispose of the two bears owned by the city but that no replies had been received, sufficient time not having elapsed to receive them.
 l After bills to the mount of $2,495. 90 of which $1,500 was loan to the School Board, had been paid there

remained in the city exchequer the sum of $2,71925.
 The Wharf Committee reported 1OS tons of coal on hands and the wharf as having done $630.20 worth of business during the previous two weeks and since the previous report. Also that 40 piles had been pur- chased for Improvements at the wharf.
 The Council ratified the obligation made by Mayor Smith regarding the city entering into an agreement with Manager Bradley of the Treadwell company for the entertainment of the drafted soldiers from the Island, the entertainment to consist of com munity dance to be given at the Natatorium tomorrow night in the form of farewell, the arrangement of the affair being in the hands of the firemen of Douglas and Tread we'll and a number of young ladies of both towns.
 A request for tender for supplying coal to the United States cable of flee for the year beginning June 1st was not acted upon as the Council decided the fluctuation of the coal market does not warrant contracts being entered into at the present time
