MAYOR NAMES
MR. DUNNING
Concluded from Pnffo l.J
of conciliation two appropriation ordi
nances to tnke the place of the dis
turber tinder consideration. In one of
thetn he would provide for all tho fixed
charges, such ns salaries and expenses
In the various departments and In the
other for nil new Improvements that
were under Immediate discussion.
In Colonel Sanderson's general ordi
nance he tnkes the appropriation
nbotit as he found them In last year's
ordlnnnro. The salnry of tho tnnyor's
clerk Is left at $900; the Fourteenth nnd
Fifteenth ward appropriations remain
unchnnged, $1,000 Is knocked off the
Item for the putchnse of hose; pro
vision Is made for $l,r50 to buy the

Is appropriated for the omitted Item of
state tax on loans; the carriage hire
Item of $200 Is provided for nnd $1,000
Is given for the repair of Nay Aug en

In the secondary ordinance, In which
the general Improvements arc taken

THINK IT IS 1LDKGAL.
It was finally agreed to refer the
Sanderson measures) to the estimates
committee, with the understanding
that the conference committee might
have them for guides If It wished
them. The appropriation ordinance
wn;i later passed on third reading and

thnt the omission of the state tax
Item made It llletrnl.
City Engineer Phillips' communica
tion responsive to a request for his
opinion on the advisability of permit
ting the laying of T rails on Mulberry
street was received. It was as fol
lows: Scranton, Pa., May G. 1897.
To tho Honorable, the Select Counill.
Gentlemen: I desire to explain my ap
proval of the use of the T rails on paved
streets.
Immediately after the receipt of the res
olution from your honorable body I ad
dressed n communication to engineers au.l
others of sixty-seven cities requesting the
benefits of their experience and opinions
as te the use- of T rai'.- on Improved
street. Forty-eight have nnswere-d and
nineteen have either declined or neglected
to answer up to this date. I have also
personally made examinations of the vari
ous rails In several cities. The result of
nil this Is that I am convinced that a T
rail with any kind of tho Improved pave
ments properly laid is actually less ob
struction In the Mtreet than the girder or
ilat rail with Its broad head. The old ar
gument for the ilat lall no longer holds
good In these days of good street Improve
ments and rn.plil transit. Tracks are laid
on streets that street cars may run on
them for tho accommodation of the gen
eral (possible HO per cent, of the)
public, and streets are paved for the ac
comodation of vehicles.
Tho people lu this, as In other cities de
mand rapid transit, nnd In order to ac
comodate them wagon or vehicular tratllc
must and should go wherj It belongs on
tho sides of the streets.
We should, though, mako nil possible
efforts In Viying our tracks and pavements
so as to make It easy and safe for veil
clcs to cross tho tracks.
To nld us In this tho Ftreet car com
pany should asslt us by laying a better
traclr and pave between tho rails.
I would respectfully suggest to councils
the necessity of requiring a more modern
tnwk construction or rath'r foundation
for the tracks than the present practice or
false bottom construe ,!on In vogue In this
city. It eloos, not harmonize with the ex
pensive concrete foundation prepared for
the pavements outside of the tracks.
The tracks (rails nnd pave) must he kept
uniform by a good foundation with" the
ndJolnlriK paveirents or trouble and dis
figuration of our -trcets are the result.
The switch question In the resolution
I have not considered further than I con
sider it my duty to explain that should
you decide to allow tho company to con
stuct tho said switch you will then havo
on that part of Mulberry street the same
accommodation or roadway as on Maqlson
avenue, betweon Linden nnd Pine streets,
at present. Hcspeotfully submitted,
Joseph P. Phillips,
City Engineer.
It was referred to tho railway com
mittee in conjunction with the city so
licited. Colonel Ezra II. Hippie, T. J. Moore
nntl '. .1 McCitnn, the park ommls
sloners, submitted a communication
from A. H. Eggerto.i, landscape artist,
showing that It would cost SS3.C00 te
put Nnv Aug park In gmul shape. This
communication was In response to a
request made by councils for such ln
matlon. It was refeired to the park
committee.

a yetfr at least 2,000 feet eif underground

SECOND LECTURE ON
DOMESTIC ECONOMY
Miss Parloa Treats of Hie Care of the
KKclicn and Pantries.
GOOD, PRACTICAL INSTRUCTION
One of tho Greatest Responsibilities
of tho Housekeeper Is tho Cnro of
the Plumbing nnd Pnrtlctilnrlv hc
I)rnlungc--IIow to flush nnd Clcnn
Sun ago lMpei'-Tho Ucfrlgcrntor
nnd How to Keep It IMiro
n n el Wholesome.
The second of Miss Maria Pnrloa's
twelve lectures on "Domestic Econ
omy" was given yesterday afternoon in
Young Men's Christian Association
hall. The nudlence was perceptibly
larger thun nt the opening lecture.
Yesterday's subject was the kitchen
nnd pantries, and Miss Parloa's treat
ment of it proved quite as interesting
uj( It was Instructive.
Tho kitchen nntl pantries, she said,
should be separated ns much as pos
sible for tho main part of tho house,
yet near enough to the dining room
to mnke the work of serving meals
easy nnd satisfactory. A north ex
posure Is desirable, but care should
be taken that the water pipes should
not be run on the north wall of the
house. The Ideal kitchen Is only one
story high, having a ventilator in the
roof nnd at least two windows on
opposite sides of tho room.
Thnt the work may be done without
traveling over a great deal of terri
tory, the table, sink nnd range should
be grouped conveniently together, and
ns close as possible to the pantry,
where the ordinary supplies and uten
sils nro kept. The furniture should be
plain and should positively Include a
piece of zinc that will extend In front
of the range at lenst two feet.
The pantries should be so nrransed
that the utensils can be placed on open
shelves or hung on the walls so that
every urtlcle can be seen at n glance.
So much depends upon the range
that nei one can afford to have a poor
one. It should be such that one cai
have nt will a hot, a moderate or n
very cool fire. Miss Parloa, at thls
juncture, explained the use of drafts
and checks and the philosophy of lire
bulldins-.
ABOUT THE HEFHIGEHATOH.
The refrigerator should be wel'.
lighted and aired, should never bo con
nected with a drain pipe. It shoule
have a thorough cleaning once a week
Everything should bo taken from the
Inside, shelves, racks, etc., washed In
hot suds, rinsed In soda water, llnalh
In clean hot water and then dried r.rO
aired. The interior should be treated
In the same manner, using a flexible
wire and cloth In the pine, and rlnslnr.
with cold water. A break In the lining
should be at once repaired. Moist
wood will give a taste to everytMInn
placed In the refrlgerntor. Better, the
lecturer said, to bo without a refriger
ator than not to havo a good one and
prouerl:- care for it.
In the matter of cooking utensils, she
said, there was a necessity of a good
supply, but the simpler they are the
better. Thf-re should be no sllnt of
towels and dish cloths. The kitchen
uterslls should be washed and wiped
with the Fame care as the dining room
china. Utensils in which frying has
been done should be wiped out with'
a newspaper. Tins should never be
Fcoureel with sand. The skewer Is al
ways! preferable for removing particles
which cling to the utensils or which
become lodged In grooves. Much Irre
parable damage Is done by Ignoranci
and carelessness.
KEEP BATH TUB CUEAN.
Fach member of a family should
make It n duty to wash out the bath
tub with warm water after using. The
bath room should be kept scrupulously
neat and clean. The faucets and tub
should be cleaned carefully onco a
week and polished; but sand-soaps
should never be used. Acid should
never be used on marble except In ex
treme cases of necessity and as a last
resort, nnd In such' cases It should be
Instantly neutralized with strong am
monia. Miss Parlca concluded by giving
some valuable hints on the disposition
of garbage. The refuge that comes
from the kitchen should be burned or
placed In a tub that Is emptied not less
than three times a week. In the coun
try It can be thrown Into a trench and
covered with eiulck llrm and earth.
The next lecture will be given to
morrow afternoon, nt 3 o'clock. The
subject Is "The care of the main part
of the house." Sweeping and dusting;
general directions for cleaning a room;
cleaning rugs, draperies, windows and
paint; general care of furniture; the
best appliances' for work and how to
care for these are among the matters
that will be dwelt upon.
