Aldermen lu Coimullailon l'or The Last Time Before The Mew Board Comes lu A Brick Bullet ins! For TenUllle. The last regular iiieetini; of the first i Reform Board of Aldermen was held ves- j terday afternoon, with nil present except-! ing J. M.Gudj;cr. There were only three or four attendants upon the meeting. whichwasthe last one preceding the inatiKuration of the new officials Mon day at high noon, at which hour Messrs. Cosby and Wcstall will retire after a one year term and prefix an "ex " to their titles. There was little to be done the annual reports were submitted before the election and this the last sitting to gether officially was without especial incident. The committee, composed of Mrs. II. A. Gudger, Mi s. . 12. Dickerson and Geo S. I'owcll, on improvement of the park given the city by Geo. V. Tack, made a report recommending that the grounds be enclosed, the gutters paved, the walks covered with crushed stone, rustic scats placed in the enclosure, mid a neat pavilion erected. A small expenditure was also recommended for flowers to be placed in the park, and that a competent man he employed lor a month or two to I luuii unit liic gruuims. i lie estimate Ol lie cost oi improvements alluded to was $150 exclusive of the summer house or pavilion, or ifiVi including the house. The report was adopted on motion ol II. L. Gudgcr and $150 was allowed for the present, and another hundred will doubtless be forthcoming if needed. The Hoard is vcrv favorably impressed with the park idea. There nre .'l1, acres in the tract. The Atkin street bridge, according to a report trom the street committer. Ii.nl i been found worn and decayed and ma I terial had been ordered with which to ! make repairs. The action was confirmed by the adoption of the report. According to a communication from City Engineer 11. M. I.ee the wall being built in front ol the French Hroud avenue property of J. M. Gudgcr, ir.,isencroaeb ing upon the street an average of live feet the entire width of the lot. On mo tion of Mr. Jones the city engineer was instructed to notify Mr. Gudgcr and re quest him to have the wall taken out ol the street, G. W. Page wus allowed to build a stall in Central market on the west side, and was ordered given his stall rent free lor three months in consideration of his putting in a relrigerator at his own ex pense. The street committee, reporting upon the damage to the liuuey street property i of Mrs. Malone by reason of the water '. being drained through her lot from the street, recommended that n new Hour and i (oundation lor the porch be put in, the i lot graded and sodded, the cost not to exceed $110. Adopted. ; A request for a permit to construct a ; corrugated iron building in Tcntville, on the spot lately occupied by O. K. John- ston's fruit'stand, provoked consider- able discussion. The permit wasgrantcd, I but the question was reconsidered he j cause the size of the building was not j specified in the application. Mr. Gudgcr said he was satisfied the H ard had granted too many permits for buildings ! of this class. Later on in the meeting I L. A. Farinholt, for whom the new build- ing is to be erected, although his name was not at first known in the transac ! tion, came into the room, and the appli i cation was renewed in proper form. Mr. j Wcstall declared heha.l been misinformed, having been under the impression that the stand was merely an enlargeiiKiil of Mr. Johnston's Iruit stand. Alter the ; discussion Mr. Wcstall said that inas much as Mr. Farinholt had gone ahead on the work he would favor the grnut : ing ot this permit, but wished to urge the Hoard to let this be the last permit lor a little building of this el iss about j the business portion of the eitv. Theic was a tic vote on the cpiestion ol grant i ing a permit, Messrs, Cosby and Gudger I voting no, and Messrs. Wcstall und Jones I voting nyc. The untieing vote was no. 1 Finally the matter was straightened out ! by Mr. Farinholt agreeing to make the walls of brick. The building will be used, probably, for offices . (). K. Johnston wished permission to put up a fruit stand on l'atton avenue adjoining A. V. Jones K; Co., but no definite action was taken. C. M. Starnes was exempted from poll tax because of his living outside the State. Isom Lenoir, colored, wished to be exempted from poll tax because of his being over age, but although he was sworn and asked bis age ot the meeting the question was left open a week. ; Hcfore closing the last meeting ol the year Mr. Wcstall offered the lollowing resolutions: "Whereas, The last business meeting of the Mayor mid Aldermen elected May ; 1, ISSKI, has now closed; be it "Resolved 1.

On account of the heavy ruiu just be fjre the service last evening, there was a small cougrcgatiou at the First liaplist j and the services were held in the lecture room. Dr. Hroughlon read the 1 1 th chapter of John, saying he would not tukc a special text, lie thought the clmjitcr one of the most precious in the lli,llc- eontnining one of the greatest miracles ever performed by Christ, that ofraisinij L:iz:inis after he li.ul been ly- '"K dead four days lu the historv of evcrv one." Iir. Uroujjhton said, "there is owning a time when they will want the Savior in time of trouble, but to have this cotnlort wc must p:e,iarc for Him in peace. The prayer offered to Christ by M.irv ami Maitha at this time was short and told just what they wanted. We should always pray for what we want, but if some of our prayers were answered, we would be very much surprised, for some of us pray for nearly everything and some things we do not want or need. I believe, with John Hunvan, in original prayer. 1 honor prayer from the heart. Prayers printed in books for evcrv day in the year, and for three times a day, in my mind are not genuine. When pray ing we should recognize it is all ol God and none from us. "Christ dill not stop the disease ol Lazarus and keep him from dying, but He had a purpose in not healing him then. He had a test to put to Marv and Martha to prove their faith in lliiri. AsChrist stands by the grave of LaZfirus there is one obstacle in the way a stone is against the grave. Christ could have raised Lazarus anewav, but there was something yet lelt for man to do. So he told them to roll the stone away, in order to test th ir faith, for when man has done till he can then is God's oppor tunity, and unless man's extremity is reached God's opiiortiinii v does iiot l'omc - 11 you want soul saved you and then comes "o ail you can God's opportunity.

Dem ocrats und other admirers of President Cleveland in and about Ilu.-ird's Ilav are in a slate of mind. Yesterday the Massachusetts State Hoard of Harbor and Land Commissioners iJ'used the petition of President Cleveland, John Parkinson, and Mosis Wilaatus, neigh bors of the President on Monument Neek, lor permission to build a dike across CedarPoud Creek alGruv G'tbleJ. Selectman George I, Ilrigi'R represented the oystcimeii of liuzzard's Ilav in oppo sition to the President's petition, and succeeded in showintr to the II i.ird that the oystermen had grants in the creek mil that they would be damaged bv the President's desires. Public opinion here is divided tonight upon the question ot burning importance to Hi'.zard's Hay, as it is believed to in volve the final determination of Ihc President whether he will come with Mrs. Cleveland and ihc children to Gray Gables at all this summer to be subjected to disdgreealjle odors, said to arise from the slack waters and rutting dclnis in the creek. The President's Irienilsrire in dignant, and consider the demands ol the ovsteniicu as in bad taste. The State Hoard advise the President's n p rcscnt.iti vo, Horace S.
