AHOUT THIS LITTLE KILL.
AGAINST THE fITV f
S. It. C'iledesiter Sou Present u ltlll
to the Alderiiiou Axklnu; l'a.v lor Six
Keot or Islington stret-si."i a
Front Foot the 1'rleo Asked.
Every member of the Hoard of Alder
men with the- exception of Henry Red
wood was present Saturday altcroeon
to attend the meeting that was not held
Friday. The first business was the ion
ideratian of a report from the finance
committee on the question ot the exten
sion of the Libtrty street water mnin
from Chestnut street to Summit, 1U60
feet. The report was nccompuuicj by
an estimate frem City Engineer Lee to
the effect that the line would cost $495.
The committee recommended that the
city bear one-half the expense, the resi
dents along the Hoe raising the re
mainder. On motion, however, it was
decided that the lity will pay $300 of
the expense. Gen. Theo. F. Davidson
and ohn A. Nichols, who wercprestnt,
thought the remaining amount could be
secured by private contributions.
A. Rankin presented a petition nsking
for sewer connection on a portion of
Cumberland avenue, the estimated cost
of which is $1000. The Mayor stated
for the finance committee that he could
not see how the work could lie done, but
Mr. Kankin thought residents along the
proposed line would give, and Gen. Da
vidson announced bis readiness to con
tribute his share, so the matter was re
ferred to the finance committee, which
will confer with citizens as to contribu
tions, and report.
A communication from the fire depart
ment committee suggested a possible
saving of expense by the installation of
a private tilcphone line between the City
Hall and the water works. This service
now is furnished by the Southern Bell
company and costs $100 a year, while,
the committee says, nj;lme can be put up
for an (stitnated cost of $150. It asked
authority to make a slight expenditure
to have a closer estimate made, and the
report was adopted.
The Mayor reported on the official
visit of John C. Chase of the Slate Hoard
of Health. It was gratifying, the rcpoit
suid, to hear the words of commenda
tion Mr. Chase had used in alluding to
the condition in which he found Ashe
ville. tie bad suggested the introduction
of nutom tic flush tnnks in the sewers,
at n cost of about $50 each. The
would save expense in removing ohstiu.
tions and would keep thesewers in satis
factory condition. K.t'errcd to the water
committee.
Architect A I.. Melton was granted a
, permit to erect a 12-room house on Lib
crtv street for Gcti. Davidson.
I The Hoard was uil vised that Col. Chns.
W. Vtoolscy had put in a two-inch pipe
connecting hu residence, Wucliwood,
with the city water main, replacing the j
inco pipe loruieriv useci; inriner, inni i
Col. Woolsev would put in n meter nt
his own expense and pay the meter rate
if the usual rule were not observed, that
of cbaigipg residents outside the city
double rates Alter a discussion, on mo
tion of II. L. Gudger, it was ordered
that wherever residents outside the city
would furnish thtir meters water would
be furnished them nt the usual meter
rate,
A bill quite unlike anything the Hoard
has received heretofore was presented by
S. K. Chtdester & Sin. It is claimed
that the line uf the Chcdester property
on Lexington street (lately South Water!
is lix feet east of the building at the cor
ner of Lexington und Pulton avenue in
other words, that six feet of the street
now being used belongs to the owners ol
the building. The charge made therefor
is $250 a front foot or $1500 in total.
together with $f0 interest. The bill, on
Air. tiliiir s motion, wns tallied.
Tax exemption was granted Noah
Murrough on account of error in listing
