Tb present animal house la In a dangerous condition, according to Mr. Montelth. and it would be no difficult taak for th animals to escap from their f limey " quarters. Th lion nous baa decayed and nothing but th rood temper of th park' blind kin of beast keep hlru from breaking away. Owing to the crowded and unsatis factory condition of the animal house th board decided not to purchas th elephant and lions of th San Francisco Chute which wore offered to them at reasonable price. Th only addition to th tn.nag.ii Will be some angora kids, of a peculiar black and white faced variety which tiav ben offered as a present to th city. When th matter of ha vine- landscape architect.

He Suggested, however, that rauny of the city's wealthy men would doubtless bo glad to either donate land for park pur ' poees or sell It at a very low figure, lioth fop the sake of the cltv anil the public good, and for the benefit that la . sure to accrue to their own property through the location of beautiful parks In its vicinity. He advised that the board acquire neighborhood or local parks Instead of the broad parkways which are o much more expensive and difficult to improve , handsomely. Recommendations for the coming; year made by Superintendent Montleth, In clude new animal bouseH, an aviary and greenhouse, all heated bv one plant, the fencing; in of all parks and the erecting of gates at the drives, more lights in th parks, gasoline lanterns being sug- fested a the cheapest and most ef uctive. more rain shelters, better water prefigure and open air gymnasiums and ball grounds and tennis courts.

(Special Dlipatch to The Journal.) Spokane .Wash., Dec. 6. A coopera tive Christian colonization scheme has been started In Spokane by the Rov. 1 John Hummel. The plan is to form a company with 120,000.000 capital, to buy thousands of acres In South America, end to colonize It with Christians from th United States, 10,000 in number. One of the colonies is scheduled for Ecuador ,and there may De raised trop ical products, the mines are to be worked and a Bteamahlp line in proposed to 'connect the colony with San Fran cisco, to tak place If the scheme of th Rev. Mr. Hummel works out as anticipated. Down 1n Costa Rica, in Central Amer lea, Is to be another colony, according; to tho organizer of the colony. He claims that in both places large trrante of land are to be secured from the gov ernment .and theMo lands are to be made productive and to return great j wealth to the investors, and quiet and ' peaceful homes to the members of the colonies. " "We will secure the necessary capital and start on a large scale," stated the licv. Mr. Hummel, when speaking: of hia project. "We will have our cooperative society organized with $10,000,000 in fireferred . stock, and the same amount n common. The preferred will be sold to those who do not go with the colony, but who wish a fixed rate of interest or dividends. ' "The common stock will be owned by the, colonists, who will number at the start about 10,000 people. This will' give us a good chance to work along : Christian and industrial lines. We are securing a great deal of encouragement in our work and we expect to make 1: a success. the municipal court this morning to answer 10 tne Charge or stealing a dog. It all came eJjout In this way: Bov ral days ago while the Annie Cum mins was laying at her berth on th waterfront, McGraw discovered a handsome Irish setter dog swimming about under the dock and apparently almost exhausted. Melng a kind-hearted man McGraw rescued the animal, warmed and cared for it and fed It on the best the commissary of the boat provided. The name of the dog's owner, J. F. Seed, appeared on the collar worn by the an 1 null, and McGraw attempted to communicate with him, but for some reaaon failed. He was somewhat sur prised, therefore, when hla boat tied up at the wharf lait evening to find an of ficer awaiting hlrn with a warrant for his arrest. McGraw gave bail for his appearance In court this morning and was on hand when the cas was called by Judge Cameron. He explained to the court how he happened to come Into posses sion of the dog and received his reward In an order from the court allowing him to go on his own recognizance until such time as tb case is taken up for final hearing. CONTRACTOIiS MUST WAIT FOB THEIR PAY City .-ludltor Barbur has prepared a list of the assessments that are now tied up In the county court awaiting a settlement of the holiday legality Ques tion. Of assessments auouted there are one week from tomorrow, a number of matters on the calendar of the circust court may be heard next week, thus helping to clear away the debris of ducumcnta and motions that -has e- cumulated. The probate court Is one department In which there will be a spurt of busi ness as soon as the opportunity is open. A large number of wills are waiting to be probated and petitions are ready for filing. The county board of equalisa tion will again formally pass on the as sessment, to make suie that Its work Is legal, and the county court will take ac tion fixing the new precinct lines in ac cordance with the decision already reached. The sheriff's offlc will have a great rush in serving papers In cases that are waiting to be filed. The lawyer have had ample time to draw petitions and complaints, and nearly all of them have a few ready for filing. Not the least thankful for the ending of the holidays will be many of th prisoners In the county Jail, whose day of trial was Indefinitely postponed by the declaration of holidays. Many hav given bond, but others hav been unable to do so, and the number of concen trates has constantly Increased.
