IMPORTANT ISSUES
FOR CITY COUNCIL
Parking" Ordinance And In
creased Pay For Police To
Be Considered Tonight
FISH MARKET REPAIR S

A special meeting of the City Coun-
Gil will be held tonight in the Munich
pal Building at which the following
important matters will be taken up.
and probably finally disposed of;
An ordinance providing for an IN
crease in the pay of the members Of
the police force; also a traffic ordi-
nance, relating to the parking of auto
mobiles about certain thoroughfarcs
OF the city, and the matter OF inviting
bids for the proposed Improvements to
the city fish market.
More or less opposition to all three
OF these measures has developed
since they were offered in the Council
within the last few weeks, and 1t re-
mains a question just what will be the
final action taken by the city solons.
The ordinance for an increase of $40
guardians of the city, seems to be
matter of rather grave concern, owing
TO the fact that about four of the men,
bers OF the force have threatened to
resign If their demands are no. sat.s-
fed. The high cost OF living is the
cause of the situation, as the officers,
especially those with families, state
they find their present compensation
insufficient to meet all contingencies.
Alderman McCready is the father III
the ordinance, and it is understood
that there is some opposition tn the
proposed increase at tris time because
of other Indebtedness thai stares the
city ir the face.
Alderman McCready also offered the
ordinance relating to the parking of
ed to prohibit the parking of machines
on Main street from Francis street, to
Church Circle, around the south side
OF the Circle and out West street as
far as Cathedral street. Along with
other opposition to this ordinance,
there is before the Council, a petition
from q number of merchants. whose
places of business are along the thor
oughfsres mentioned.
The question of repairs to the fish
pending for some time. The proposed
improvements have been strongly adj
vocated by Alderman Taylor, of the
second Ward, and the issue has now
reached the point of whether or not
to ask for bids for the work at this
time, or at some future date.
1t is not unlikely that sprinkling
of other business will demand the at
tention of the city officials at the meet

Crowds that exceeded in number
those of either Tuesday or Wednesday

nearly one hundred automobiles parked

Everything about the place received
its share of patronage. There were
many lucky winners, and some went
home overladen with baskets of fruit,
boxes of candy, dolls, flowers, etc. One
little eoiored boy seems to be the luck
lest of the lot, for every night he has
drawn a chicken or a duck as his prize,
and last night it happened to be large
duck which he carried in his arms all
the way from the carnival grounds to

One of the largest first day crowds in the history of the city literally iammed the new Fay Way butter store on North Central avenue all day yes terday. From the opening of the doors in the morning until the serving of the last customer last evening, the patronage enjoyed by the enter prise thoroughly demonstrated that it is just such store as this that the people of the city have been wait ing for.
 J. A. Albright. the proprietor of the new store, stated yesterday that he desired to apolo gize for the lack of waitresses to the hundreds who flocked into the place. Several of those he had counted on to go to work for him yesterday did not put in their appear ance, but the handicap will be ale viated today.
 One of the features of the opening was the music furnished by Eichen- bronners orchestra of three pieces All the latest upt date pieces were played much to the enjoyment of the large crowds. In fact, the affair took on thoroughly festive aspect. The new store is one of the most artistic ally arranged and decorated of any in the southwest and is a decided addi- ton to the restaurants of the city.
