Hacks Must Back Up.
Action was taken on the petition
of properly owners abutting the Little
Plaza, Who had protested last week
against the use of that part of the city
as a public hack stand. An order was
passed requiring hacks to keep ten
feet away from the curb line, in or-
der to allow other vehicles to get at
the offices around the Plaza. The
recommendation was made by Chair-
man Ilohinsop, of the streets commit-
tee, and he was authorized to draw a
line from the curb ten feet, beyond
which the public hacks must take their
stand.
City Clerk Percy McGee reported
that it had been necessary to draw
$29.68 from the contingent fund for
general fund warrants. His action
was approved by the council.
Mrs. Schuster of Providence hos-
pital requested a reduction from the
$1U she is required to pay monthly
for scavanger service. This was re-
ferred to the s&ntltar.v committee and
city scavenger Frank Aiderete.
Bills were reported favorably by
Chairman DeGroff of the finance com-
mittee and ordered paid.
A bill of $221 for paving at the in-
tersection of East Overland and Camp-
bell. for the Bitulithic company was
allowed.
The weekly pay rolls of the follow-
ing departments were ordered paid:
Park, $54.25; sewer department,
$142.50, and street department $241.10.
A protest from Samuel Milliron was
presented by his attorney against the
ordinance requiring the payment of
fees to the city electrician for inspec-
tion of electrical work done in the
city. The petitioner asked that the.
city not Interfere with his work, and
that the fees prescribed be abolished.
He was willing to pay an annual
license of $125 if the inspection should
Ik- discontinued.
Mayor Sweeney declared that the
city had the absolute right to control
its streets and alleys. “Electricity is
dangerous," he said, "and the city
has the right to prohibit electrical
wires altogether. Permits must be
obtained before lights are turned on
in new buildings, which can he done
only after inspection, for which the
fee must be paid. I-believe the ordi-
nance is good, and if it is not the
electricians can find relief in the
courts"
Alderman Hewitt said that the ordi-
nance was not a burden on anyone
but a protection, assuring safe wiring,
for which the consumers are willing
to pay. The petition was denied.
Owners Protest.

paving of Magoffin avenue east of

kohama the latter part of the month.
In speaking of the influx of Japan-
ese into Mexico during the past few
years, Mr. Arakawa said: “The in-
creased Japanese population of Mex-
ico has occasioned the demand for
Japanese consulates throughout the
republic, and i will take the matter
before my government upon my re-
turn. Chenosuka Yada, secretary of
legation in Mexico, will act as charge
d'affaires during the minister’s ad-
sence. As Secretary Yada lias long
been identified with the consular ser-
vice of his country, he will be well

o'clock, and a still alarm was turned
in, the chemical responding. The fire,
however, had gained such headway
that the chemical hose was ineffective
ami An alarm was turned in. followed
a few minutes afterwards by a general
alarm, all the departments responding,
and soon other hoses were playing
on the flames. Tile smoke caused by
the burning meats was blinding, and
the firemen were obliged to work in
relays.
The firemen had difficulty in fighting
the lire effectively on account of the
brick walls of the smoke house, and
the flames were not subdued until a
hole was -chopped through the roof,
and the floor of the smoke house
flooded.
,1. S. Thompson, local manager of

loss is not so great as was at first be-
liever!, but the damage by lire and

Of the Best People on Earth—Mist
Olive Vail, Who Belongs Truly to
the Chicago' Lodge, No. 4—What
She Has to Say About the Order
and the El Paso Members.
W ho over heard of a lady Elk? Still

number Is very few. arid select, too,
bv the way. In fact there are only
font female members of the antlered
tribe in the I’nited States—Miss Olive
Vatl. now In El Paso, n lady In New
York, one in Ronton and another In
New York, compose the total feminine
Klkdom There used to Ire five, hut
simp Patti Rosa departed to the place
where all good Elks eventually go,
there are only four left.
Miss Vail, when interviewed by a
Times reporter last night after her
act at the Orphcum, said: “Yes, I
am an Elk, and I am proud of it, too.
The best Imncli of fellows in the world
arc Elks. Of course, I haven’t, got
a fully grown pair of antlers yet, for
no woman can hope to he initiated
into all of the mysteries of Elkdom,
so us to he a full fledged member of
the herd. Still I have my pin, and
a hook presented me by members of
the No 4 lodge of Chicago, in which
many of the exalted rulers throughout
the Foiled States have subscribed
their names That makes me,almost
an Elk, doesn’t It?
Yes, I will tell you nil about it.1’
she smiled, as a matter of fact, though,
she smiles most all the time. It hap-
pened on the 27th day of last February
In the temple of lodge No. J in Chi-
cago. while I was playing at the La
Salle theater In that city. One night.
I had a summons to appear at the
local lodge rooms, and was initiated.
Of course, 1 can't tell you about that,
as that is one of the secrets of the
order Hut I was Initiated and given
a pin and a book in which were the
names of the officers of the lodge.
Well that Is about all about my be-
coming an Elk, except that we had a
most beautiful supper and I had to
secure a carriage to carry away my
flowers. Since then In every town
where I have played the Elks have
proven themselves, what I had always
known them to he. the best fellowjn
ill the world
I was ho pleased to b arn that the
El Paso hoys carried away the big
money in Philadelphia last summer.
I wasn't there at, the time, but l have
heard niemebis of the other lodge*
speak about their fine appearance."
When asked if she preferred the
West to the East, she answered:
You he!, nil the time. Mv home
j was in the west until a few years ago;
jin fact. I secured my musical educa-
tion in Loh Angeles. Nothing could
suit me better than to he able to
setl'P* down in some place in the
West and never go on the stage again
The persons who say they enjoy their
stage Hb* are--well, anyhow, they
don’t tell the truth l am awfully sick
and tired of tie* continual grind of
vaudeville, and I may retire from the
stage soon.”
