An ordinance to allow the payment of cnstructlon warrants more promptly was pas-sea ana ine matter of paving Tenth street be tween Willamette and Pearl was brought up. The city attorney was Instructed to see that Dr. Loomis' hedge, which contains poison oak, be removed as a puonc menace. Routine Kusiness In the order of business the llrat matter taken up was the Improve ment of Blair street. A petition was read from a' large number of far mers living on the county roads be- vond Blair street asking that this street De lmprovea. ine ;iarmer living beyond this street have raised $3200 to have the river road macad amized, and the county ta raising the ?um to $7000. This makes it bad to have the poor stretch of road. In be tween. No petition has been receiv ed from the property owners to this effect and it Is suggested that they be heard from, although the -council was very much In favor of having the work done and it was even in quired If the council could act at once without a petition. Attorney Bean then brought up the matter of the Springfield road beyond the Uni versity to where the county has fin ished macadamizing, which is in the same condition and is the most trav eled road Into Eugene. He said he had heard it from auto owners who drove to Mapleton, a short time ago that Blair street Is the worst piece of road between Eugene and Lake Creek. However, desirous that the property owners would be heard from, the matter was referred to the street committee. More Water in Fairmount M. Svarverud was present as a del egate from Fairmount to ask the council to have the city water main eiicuueu nuo fairmount. a it la he said, it is almost impossible to get city water into their homes, but that if a lateral were laid (or six or seven blocks every property own, in Kair. mount would use the wnier. He also renue.(1 that if the mains were ex tended that they IJt. run nor and south and iu the alleys so that the streets would nut be torn up The matter of a vvr ., meuont,d; but the mayor salt! thai all sewer plans were being deferred until after the sale of bonds on the 2 7th inst and after that the request would be taken up. A petition for a ll-lit at. the corner of t if I h and olive streets was re ceived and referred to the fire and water committee. A resolution appointing viewers to assess damages upon the opening of Olive street to the railroad trackand setting the time of meeting at June 7 at 10 o'clock, was passed. The city engineer was Instructed to meet with them. The committee consists of W. S. Moon, John Hampton and M. D. Mitchell. Quicker I'ay for Laborers An ordinance was passed thin would -allow the warrants to be paid upon the authority of the finance committee. This was done so that the wages of the men working at the power plant might be paid without delay. ' The matter of refitting the office of the city treasurer was brought up by the mayor. He, described how the carpet in the room had been laid 23 years ago land was entirely worn out. It was unrit, he said, for a man of Air. Heisner's age to have to work ill iiuch a room. After this descrip tion, Councilman Dorr arose and said that judging from the description by the mayor this matter should be re ferred to the health committee, and so moved. The motion was carried and the health committee will see to refitting the room. It was then ques tioned by some one there whether or not the city health committee knew how to take up a carpet. l'avu Tenth Street A petition signed bv C. S. Frank,' S H. Friendly, J. S. Luckey and E. Whattam, a majority of the property owners on Tenth street between Wil lamette and Oak streets, asking that the street bo paved with bitulithlc.

There are two other blocks on South Wil lamette awaiting enough more to have all done together. j Small .Mutters T. H.

Foster, was the actress' grand uncle. Miss Crossmun had the origi nal manuscripts of nearly all of the hue Mr. Foster's, but they were des troyed by fire some years ago when the actress lo;t all her trunks iu a conflagration that razed the Pike Opera house iu Cincinniitti to the ground. The "Suwanee Itlver" man uscript would have gone with the rest of the priceless papers had not Miss C'rosman only that day taken it out to show it to a frleud who Is an enthusiast and admirer of Fos ter's work.?. The precious manuscript is now hanging on the wall of Miss Cros nian's pretty New York home. It is framed between two pieces of glass so that each sido of the paper may be read. On playing the melody from the manuscript it is quickly discov ered that the latter day harmonists have slightly altered modulations and progressions although the melo dy Is (lie same. The rich, pure but simple harmonies of Foster however, cannot he improved upon except for an ear that demands, the "barber shop" variety of chording.
