Ennis at the south- east corner of Golden Gate avenue and Hyde street. The floor will have = space of 137 feet square and the rental will be $1000 per month under a lease of two years.

On Wilson's motion the request was referred to the joint| finance and building committee with instructions to Investigate the propo- sition. JlEBERST'S BONES FOUND IN RUINS.
