The extra time was spent in discussing conditions in general. Some one brought up the matter of eliminating tenements along the railroad track Mr. Humphrey was of the opinion that those city tenements should be elimin- ated. Several were of the opinion that the tenements were of no added betterment of conditions in that sec- tion. The matter of opening up a street through there which would ne- cessitate the tearing down of the building was also discussed. Mr. Humphrey suggested that the spot of the tenements might be used for a torehouse for the public works de- partment. Tools, road rollers, etc., could be stored ther although it was not sure whether the pipe of the de- partment could also be stored. Alder- man Richards explained that he had heard that a movement was on foot to have a municipal garage erected at that place and have all the clty cars in one place with an expert re- pairman, etc., to look after them. Park Plans Discussed. Chairman W. F. Brooks, chairman the board of park commissioners appeared before the committee to ex- plain the appropriation wanted for parks. With Mr. Brooks there were present Superintendent Wainwright, C. F. Smith, G. P. Hart and M. K. co to lend their aid to the park development proposition. Mr. Brooks iined that in preparing the budget hoard made no recommendation r the division of the money. That part would be left to the finance com- mittee. Mr. Brooks then went on to | explain to the men present the ask- | ing of $10,000 for this year to be sed for the developing of plans for the park devclopment in the city. He also told the committee that it would ke at least three years for the defi- nite development work. The first vear would be consumed in making the plans and letting the contracts. The second year would see the com- pletion of the rough work on the | parks and the third year would be u in putting the final touches on the work. Mr. Brooks also spoke of securing landseape architeets and men who knew their business. He was of the opinion that the work should be done under the hond issue method and the work would be done at once In- stead of plecemeal, He thought that the time had come for the develop- ment of the parks and the work should not be put off any longer. He also explained that the development set of [t SICK HEADACHE GOES QUICKLY Hnd that distressing sick headache that keeps you feellng miserable with a laxatlve tea that won't fall.
