CITY COUNCIL
The city council met last night and
transacted much business. As Mayor
Adams is absent from town, Council
man Malcolm Brock was appointed
mayor pro tern.
Chairman Currier of the street com
mittee informed the council that his
attention had been called to the bad
condition of the planking on the City
more particularly to that por
tion of it between the Hillery-Scott
cannery and warehouse. He had
looked over the situation and found
same to be as stated, but in his opin
ion it was up to the townsite owners,
and not the city, to make the neces
sary repairs. The matter was dis
cussed at length, and on motion the
city clerk was instructed to write to
George Hazelet of the townsite com
pany, notifying him of the defective
condition of the planking and ascer
tain if the same could not be remedied.
Chairman Currier also informed the
council that the street crossing just
outside the city limits on First street
was in bad shape and needed replacing.
It was moved by Wolf, seconded by
Harwood, that the crossing be re
placed under the supervision of the
street committee. The motion was
carried.
Councilman Brock called the coun
cil’s attention to the condition of
F#rst street between B and C, more
particularly that section of it in front
of the Cordova drug store and the Bor
den building, stating that the owners
of these two buildings were desirous
of building gutters to carry the water
by their property instead of having it
run under their buildings, but wished
the city to build up the low section of
the street so that the gutters would not
be washed out. After discussing the
matter it was left in the hands of the
street committee to take up with the
city engineer and see what could be
done to relieve the situation.
As the committee had not had suf
ficient time to look into the matter of
adopting official grades for the streets
or into the proposed city dock ques
tion, they were given more time.
Chairman Haef of the printing com
mittee brought to the attention of the
council the matter of the city assist
ing the local Chamber of Commerce in
paying for the books recently printed
for the Chamber of Commerce, and
recommended that the city help in
the matter. A letter was read by the
clerk from the chamber, stating that
the books had been published with
funds raised by popular subscription,
and asked the city council to take up
the deficiency. The matter was laid
over until the next regular meeting of
the council.
Chairman Wolf of the building com
mittee stated that the matter of hav
ing improvements made around the
monument on Flag hill had been left
In the hands of Chairman McConnell
of the park committee.
The monthly reports of the city
clerk, health officer and fire chief
were read and ordered filed. In the
fire chief’s report attention was called
to^the condition of the alley between
First and Second streets. The city
clerk was instructed to have a notice
published in the Daily Times calling
the attention of the property owners
to the ashes and rubbish near their
property and demanding that same be
cleaned up. The fire chief was in
structed to call the attention of the
property owners to the notice and re
port all failures to comply with the
ordinance.
F. Kempfer, representing the Path
finder, the publication of the Pioneers,
addressed the council and asked their
assistance in getting out the July is
► sue of the magazine, which would be
the Cordova number. A committee
i of three, consisting of Councilmen Har
wood, Wolf and Haef, was appointed to
look into the matter and report at the
next regular meeting of the council.
J. L. Braxton addressed the council
and asked for the position of keeping
t the streets and alleys clean at a salary
of $100 per month. He was appointed
for this work until further notice, to
work under the supervision of the
street committee.

SEATTLE, May 4 (hy Associated
! Press).—The steamship Anyox, with
the barge Baroda, left Balboa riatur
; day, transporting one hundred and
i fifty flat cars and four locomotives
from Panama for the Alaska govern
ment railway. They are due at An
chorage June 4.
NEW'YORK, May 4 (by Associated
Press).—Close to 200 sanctioned ten
nis tournaments are listed in the an
nual schedule of the United States j
Lawn Tennis Association issued today.
Every section of the country is repre
sented in the distribution of dates
and indications point to one of the
most successful seasons for the sport
in the history of the organization.
Among the early season tourna
ments of importance is the Church
Cup match ta be played at Forest
Hills, N. Y., May 21 and 22. Unusual
interest is attached to this inter-city
contest between New York, Boston
and Philadelphia, because^of the bear
ing it will have on the selection of
the team to represent the United
States abroad. As the team will sail
early in June to enter the English
championship and play the Davis Cup
ties in July, this will be the last im
portant event before its members are
i chosen and the Davis Cup committee
will doubtless be guided in their se
lections by the showing made there.
An innovation is the change in the
| date of the intercollegiate champion
ship which will be held June 28 in
stead of in September as heretofore.
The woman’s national championship
has been changed from June to Sep
tempeb and will be played at Phila
i delphia, during the week beginning
September 13. A new national event
for women has been created in a cep
arate tournament for the clay court
titles will be contested at the Detroit
Tennis club the week of June 21,
while the men’s events take place
July 10 at Chicago. The men’s champ
ionship of the United States is sche
duled to begin August 30 at Forest
Hills, N. Y.
