Mr tlorae suid timt the streets ouglil to he fixed up and he thought the mat ter of new fire Hppaiulus could lie takeu cure of us well. Mr. Moe suid that in his opinion what the city needed most ul present was to have its streets repaired in some way permanently. Hint' while there were no doubt a good many things the city needed such as fire Hppuratus'aiiil inoie light, he thought the most imperative need wuh to have the streets at ieust repaired before the bad weather set 111 so that tliey would at least be passable, He did pot think $l,.riK) was enough money with which to do it and do it right, which was the main thing, as the town was get ting to where Ihe strectt must, be per niHiiently improved. Councilman ntitt sanl lie was very much lu Invor of having t lie si reels attended to. That they were gradual ly netting worse and worse and that the time had come for tee city to make permanent improvements upon its thoioiightavirs em! that whalevei wo''k was done should be executed with that idea in mind. Mr. lllaiicher was also very decid-I ed in his opinion on this point ami called the attention of the mayor ami council to the many hud places in the city's streets that if they were not re- nali'ed would Ijd III such a 1 million iiy spring that they would be impassable Mr. Morse also said Unit II possible the streetssliiiuhl be prepaired at unci as another rain would ticiko the roads! leading to the boat landing ami the 0. K. A N freight house in such bail condition that they could be reached with ditllculty. Marshal (iatiuor, who wuh present, addressed the council and said that it was impossible to get men to work on the streets at present, as there was such a demand lor labor that there were no men idle. He said ho did not think it advisable to attempt to make any permanent street improvements this lull, lout li the streets were plowed up they would become mud holes and remain that way all winter. l'o make a permanent, improvement with Krpvcl or crushed rock would cost, he thought, Jtnch more than coun cil had to spend at this time. I ; 1 1 v Engineer Henderson called council's attention to t he diingerotis condition of the roud lending to tin- bout landing at the cn-d, side of the the river where the new railroad bridge is being const 1 ueled ami sacl that it should be seen to tleif the ! railroad couiniiy make it tale ami I leave the romt in as gomi cnmiii.101, j aH they found it when the hi idge is Mulshed. I be marshal i"id st n i l committee was instructed to looh after the matter. The special committee at pointed to Imiuire inlo the total cost of the sew er and the amount of money needed to finish paying for it, repotted that it had consulted Mr. Henderson 1 11 the matter, us he had all the data at hand to furnish the information and Mr. Hendersun, who was present was asked to state what, it would cost to to make the inquiry. He couldn't tell exactly but would do it as cheaply and probably better than it could be done elsewhere on uccoiuit of the fa cilities which he possessed. The mo tion to have It done was carried. The ordinance raising the inar shal'a salary to fiKl per month was brought up and passed the first read ing. The committee appointed in re gard to semiring gravel for use on the city si treets reported several lo cations where it could be obtained al various prices, but Engineer I lender sou suid the city owned a street which was practically of 110 use to it, hoi ig located where it ran olt into Indian creek and that he thought all the Krxvel necessary, could be obtained there. Mr. Henderson whs asked to act with the street committee in in vestigating the matter, and a report will be made at the next meeting. Mayor llloweis called tie attention of council to the fact that W. K. Mlieets, chief of the tiro department, was present and wanted to address it in icgard to obtaining a new tire truck and ho was given the attention of that body. Mr. Sheets mado a btrong plea for added lire protection, saying that the engine in use in the dewntuwn part of the city was too heavy to be of much use without hoises which were not always availa ble, put tic in. 1 ly at night. He said by placing the heavy machine ou the bill and piocuring a lighter one tor the business section the whole city would thou be protected as the heavy machine could t o very easily brought down elf the hill, while it was almost impossible to take it up. He stated that the full section being almost lev el it could be used to advantage up there as well,;and the lighter apparat us could I 0 taken up too if necessary. lie is in favor ot a hook and ladder truck with two ten gallon chemical tanks also and which lias laddets long cnouuh to reach to the lop of nnv building at pieseut in the city. The city novv hail 110 ladders for use in case ol lire and it was something that should be provided, us sooner or later there would lie a serious need of them iind an adeipiate apparatus should be pt ovided lor protecting Hie city iigiiuht soi ions loss. Judge Hem. or sou augmented Mr. Sheets' talk tor added lire protection and ou motion if Mr. Morse a resolution was carried referring the matter to the commit tee 011 lire and water with power to act. The llnance committe audited a number of bills and the council ad journed. thinks He Has Located M ut hint Pocket John Thompson, a prospector, who litis just returned from Ihe country back of Mount Adams, where he wat induced to go by the story in the .Iniinrnl that gold had been found 1 herd this summer ly two young men Alio were taking their summer vaca t ions at Trout Lake, says that he has located some of the richest, specimen! if gold, cupper and lead ore that evei 'tune out nl the state of Washiiitgon iiul timt ti e country thcie is full ol jifiispecl ui s who are making similar Minis. Ihe spccimiiif lis he says w lb ue placed on exhibition at Vancouver.

Ho says about hi miles nmlhaiirt of Mount Adams, in the nighhnrhond of a body of water known as Salt lake, he found an exca vation 11 feet deep anil li feet wide that had been made by mining tools and that he discovered it by accident while prospecting tor other parties. Kock taken from it he states showed iinmistiiki'ble evidence of gold but as he was working on a salary lie decided to lot thu location of his find remain unknown until lie could return aud work it tor himself. He will not give any information that would lead to its discovery and says that ho expects to return there in a lew days and in vestigate thoroughly.
