The temporary council chambers
have been arranged upon a somewhat
different plan from that in vogue In
the old city hall. Formerly the mem
bers of the Third ward delegation oc
cupied seats nearest the mayor's desk,
while the delegation from the Second
and First wards sat behind the eaat
enders. Now the seats are arranged
In a long seml-clrcle, with the First
ward delegation on the left facing the
mayor's desk, and the Third ward
councllmen on the right, the Second
warders occupying the central loca
tion. The new arrangement may have
the effect of calming down the east
enders, who furnish most of the ex
citement at council meetings with their
differences. : . ,.!,.''
The second production of "Snow
White and the Seven Dwarfs" drew
snother large crowd last night, and to
every respect the performance was
fully up to that of the first night
Only those who attended the operetta
can have any idea of the excellent
manner In which the children played
the parts aaslgned to them, or proper
appreciation of the thoroughness of
the training of the juvenile performers.
The music was one of the most pleas
ing features of the production, and
was furnished by Miss Elsie Larsen,
Miss Neil Busey, Clarence Hanson, N.
Johnson and P. I Johnson. A vocal
solo by Mr. William Gratke, ''When
the Winds O'er the Sea. Blow a Gale,"
added to the general excellence of last
evening's performance.
At laat night's meeting of the water
commission, Ferguson Houston were
awarded the contract for the construc
tion of a retaining wall around the
lower reservoir on Irving avenue. The
contract price Is $4375. Four bids were
received upon tbe work. The .wall Is
to be two feet In height at the south
end. Increasing to 17 feet at tbe corner
of Sixteenth street and Irving avenue.
The commission ordered the Installa
tion of hydrants at the corner of Ninth
street and Jerome avenue, and at the
corner of Fifty-flrst and Birch streets.
An offer of 13 cents a foot was re
ceived for 6000 feet of converse pipe
that tbe commission has, on hand, and
a committee was Instructed to Inves
tigate the proposal.. The usual month
ly claims were audited and paid.
Some Improvement was noted yes
terday in the run of salmon, and fish
ermen and selnera reported better
catches. At the new Tongue Point
seining grounds Tom Taylor's crew
took 1000 pounds of fish. While some
of the more conservative fishermen do
not look for a big run of salmon sooner
than July 20, some of those who have
carefully studied the situation believe
that the present Improvement Is merely
an Indication that a heavy run is soon
to enter the Columbia, Considerable
Interest was taken la the Belllngham
story In yesterday's Astorlan, to the
effect that the high water In the Co
lumbia was -causing the salmon to
enter the sound. The scarcity of fish
here Is attributed to the continued cold
weather and the high stage of the
water, but there Is not the least doubt
of the coming of the heavy runs of
hatchery fish later on.
PERSONAL MENTION.
The regatta committee will see to
It this year that the course Is kept
clear of small boats during the racing
events. Every year great difficulty
has been experienced because of the
presence of pleasure boats on the
course, and several times the racers
havli either collided with careless oc
cupants of small boats or else have
lost place by avoiding .them. This year
the committee will establish a patrol
system, and it is hoped to have the
courts clothe the patrol boat's comple
ment with authority to make arrests.
If this Is done the course can be kept
clear at all times.
