Much Business
ThP city council held a lengthy
meeting last night and transacted a
coivMderanie uniuum, ui leugiuy uui
Perhaps really the most Im
portant matter that has been before
the DOOy 1UI nuiun tunc auu. kuii.ii
..ocupri favoraDiy wan mat or macau-
..nii7inz Blair street and East Elev
enth street to the city limits. The
council decided unanimously that
these two streets should be Improv
ed and the matter was referred to
the street commucee wno are to se
cure petitions from the property ow
ners A little bit of humor was In
troduced when Councilman- Dorr
mnved that the matter of refurnish
lug the office of city treasurer be
referred to the health committee, af
ter the mayor naa uescriDea now 111
tnv It was. 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.
They also mentioned the block east
of that but did not Incorporate it
in their, petition for fear that that
block would defeat theirs also. There
are two other blocks on South Wil
lamette awaiting enough more to
have all done together. j

AMUSEMENTS
The original nianusclpt of that
dear old song, "Way Down 1'iiou ihe
Kuwaia-e Kiver," is one of the most
cherishi 1 possessions of Miss Henri
etta t'r.ssnian. tho well-known com
clicune who is coming to this city
with her newest vehicle, "Aaii-Mal-rla.
jiiy." .Miss Grossman's posses
sion :.!' this ninnufcript is quite natur
al. a.j the author of the song, Steph
en C. 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.
Miss Crosman will appear In Eu
gene In "Anti-Matrimony" July 12.
