He considers he should not be taxed n. He pald 06 then. He was told at that time e would not have to pay any more. Mary J, Higgins sent a letfer and G, R Lumaden wanted to know if the letter could not be read. ‘The mayor asked him what his in- terest was and he sald he had prop- erty there and thought the statements of all should heard. He was told the letter was for the committee and they would consider it. Mrs. Catherine . Lumsden, through her husband, sald their lot “on _the Hickory street side is a ledee. TWeir houee is on Oakridge street and the ledge would have to be tunneled 25 to 30 feet deep to reach the new sewer. There is no outlet on Hickory street for a sewer. John, Danfel and Mary Coughlin have 100 feet on the street, said John Coughlin. His objection was that if he could help it he would not have a sewer at all. He thinks he could lve without It the rest of his life. THe wanted to know his assessment, but could nos be told. lliam J, Enright did not object {o the' sewer, but would like to run ‘3 private drain and connect lower in t¥ street. It would be better than .con- necting @irsct through a ledge. He told of paying $198 for the old sewer and desired fo know his assessment, but could not be informed. He was told he would have to .pe- tition the couneil for the plan he pro- posed. | No others desired to be heard and | that part of the hearing was closed. | Mt. Pleasant Strest Sewer.

NEW TENANTS CAUSE MANY BUILDING CHANGESi Wauregan House Store to Be Fitted up for Dr. Harrig—New Front for Chapman's Bath Strest Store—Ar- ranging for Chelsea Bank. On Wednesday Dr. George R. Har- ris took a lease of the vacant store, No. 21 Broadway, in the Wauregan house block, and will have his office there just as soon as the necessary changes can be made, It will be fit- ted up with partitions as he desires, and work will be started upon it at once. There will be a small waiting room at the entrance, oft which will be the office and back of which will be partitioned off other rooms to ac- commodate his business, his study be- ing at the rear. It will make a de- cidedly convenlent office and the lease has been taken for a term of years. The contractors are at work on the Chgpman building in Bath street, hav- ing aljout completed the new office of G. E. Hodge In the west end of the building, while the east end, which L. L, Chapman is to occupy for his car- riage repository, is undergoing a big change. The front has been torn out and carpenters are now engagec in re- fitting and reconstructing the interior, that portion which was formerly used for the office and stable being joined together now. Both floors will be fit- ted up and there will be a new front, making a decided change there. The Geer building in Broadway is being changed for the mmodation of the Chelsea savings bank, which will move in there soon. New outside doors have been hung and the interior is being arranged for their business. This ground floor has been hired for temporary quarters. SHANNON BUILDING FIRE ~ COMPARED WITH OTHERS Fire and Water Engineering Says De- partment Here as . erfully Successful—Should Have More En- gines. The issue of Fire and Water Eagi- neering of February 21 gives four pic- tures of the Shannon bullding fire and has an article on the fire in which it seys: The building was doomed and the efforts of the firemen were de- voted to saving the adjoining property. In this the department was wonder- fully successful, and if Chief Stanton had had more engines—and for the better safeguarding of the city he should haye at least two—the damage to the adjoining property wopld have been very much less. Handichpped as he was, he saved a conflagration. The fire was so well stopped as to call forth universal praise from the in- surance men—those who after the suppression of the fire were most in- terested in the matter and most likely to criticise the operation of the fire department, The same {ssue of the magazine pic- tures a half-million-doliar fire in St. Paul, Minn, which was in four-story bulldings, three being gutted as ¥ as one three-story bullding, Nothing was left of those buildings which were of lesser heigbt than the Shannon bullding and there were nineteen fire engines at work there, and forty more the account says, could have been uvsed to advantage. There were thir- ty engine streams shown. In Schenectady the Arcade, a three- story building, was entirely gutted bes ing as complete a wreck as the Shan- non building. There were three en- gines there. At Galveston, three en- gines and two tugs were used at a whart fire, the low building being en- tirely destroyed, FUNERALS. Mrs, Arthur T.
