The docket was light at the session of the city council on Monday
evening, ln the absence ol Mayor
Kealy, Alderman Irwin presided,
In addition to whom Ihere were

Braim and Wheeler.
A letter was read (rom the sec*
retsry of the Horticultural Society
asking (or the donation of the
soil now being removed from 21st
street.    Board of Works to act.
A letter from M. S. McDowell,
secretary of the civic celebration
committee lor July ist, requesting
that the council increase the
amount of their donation to the
funds, inasmuch as there is a
shortsge of cash with which to pay
bills. Referred to committee of
the whole.
From Chief of Police Davies,
with reference to unsatisfactory
conduct upon the part of the pres
ent caretaker, and stating that
Geo. Pryme had been placed in
charge of the pound awaiting the
further action oi the council in the
matter. Referred to committee of
the whole. From J. Kirkland
making application for the position
of caretaker should a vscancy occur.   Filed for reference.
Minutes of a meeting of the
hoard oi works were resd, as follows: Recommended that the
caretaker inspect property lying
close in and report to the council
with relerence to any combustible
material lying upon the lots; that
the city clerk instruct property
owners under the bylaw to clear

adopted as read.
A letter was resd from the city
solicitor, to tbe effect that they
were negotiating for the completion of the agreement with the
Lonsdale estate with reference to
the park. The solicitor of Mr.
Fell had agreed to consult him
with relersnce to amendments as
propose \ by the city solicitors, and
to advise them, but no communi
cation is as yet to hand. When
this is received the matter will be
proceeded with at once.
Alderman Msy asked ii any reply had been received Irom the city
solicitors with reference to the request of the council for advice as
to whether tbe option for the purchase of the ferry, which expired
on June ird last, is now void.
Alderman Irwin from the chair replied that no advice is to hand.
Council then went into committee of the whole.
Caretaker Brimacombe wa: suspended for one week.
The amount donsted to the celebration committee was increased
by $25, making $100 in all. Applications lor the position ol assessor were received from D. W.
Elder snd Reginald Dunn. Laid
over to be dwelt with at the meeting next Monday night.
that someone else might be given
sn opportunity to show what could
be done. Mr. McDowell stated
that he had (K sired to retire at iln
Isst election of the officers, but
had been persuaded to accept the
position for an additional term,
solely because it was his wish to
strengthen the financial position of
the club and to leave it in good
condition in that respect. During
his term, by dint ol persistent el-
fort, he had gathered in some £884
which hail proved sufficient to pay
all outstanding indebtedness and
to leave a small balance in the
treasury. Now that he had accomplished his object, he desired
to be relieved ol his duties of the
position.
The proposition to postpone action on the resignations until the
regular meeting in August, was
stoutly resisted by those who had
resigned, and they insisted on the
resignation being accepted at
once. The entire list was then accepted in one motion, after which,
upon motion ol MB. Martinson,
a vote of thanks was tendered the
retiring officers, coupled with an
expression of regret that tbey had
deemed It wiie to relinquish office.
Officers pro tent were then appointed until the regular elections
next month. The new appointments are as follows: President,
M. B. Martinson; secretary-treasurer, Robert Tarn; members of the
executive, Messrs. Emerson and
Prime.
The treasurer presented his report, showing receipts (884, and
disbursements £883.81, leaving a
balance in the treasury of $1.19.
The grsnd stand is now paid for
and the club is out of debt. This
report was adopted and W. N.
Lailey and L. N. Humphries were
appointed to audit the books previous to their being delivered to
the new officers.
Thomas M. Ross, a pupil of
Sandow and Prof. Inch, wrote
proposing to donste his services ss
physical instructor of the club,
provided suitable employment
could be procured for him in the
city. Secretary to reply that the'
club is not prepared for this departure at present. W. B. Bunbury wrote, notifying the club that
henceforth the B.C. Electric Ry.
Co., would expect the club to comply with the clause of the agree-
ment with reference to keeping the
I grounds in order and the building
! insured, and likewise with the
j clause governing division of gate
receipts. Letters received snd
filed. The president was instructed to insure the buildings with H.
M. Burns for three years for $500.
The members aglfbed to meet at
the grounds on Thursday evening
for the purpose of cleaning up the
grounds and putting them in first-
class shape.
The regular meeting for the election of officers will be held on the
first Thursday in August, when it
is desired to have a large attendance of those who have been
members and to induce them to
take an active part in the promotion of amateur athletics in the
city.
The Athletic Club.
An extraordinary meeting of the
Athletic Club was held in Larson's
pavilion on Monday evening. The
most striking feature of the proceedings was the wholesale supply
of resignations that was presented
for consideration—G. MacKenzie,
president; M. S. McDowell, secretary-treasurer, and Geo. V. and
Alex. Smith, members of the ex
ecutive, all requesting to he re
lieved ol their official responsibilities. No sensational reasons were
advanced upon the part of the retiring officers to account fur their
rather drastic move. Mr. Mac
Kenzie stated that he had been
president for two yesrs, in fact
was the originator of the Athletic
Club as an institution, and now
that the initial difficulties had been
overcome he considered thc time
opportune for a change in order
Subsidy to Bridge
The very welcome news resched
the city on Tuesday   that the Ottawa government had   introduced
its supplementary list of appropTi
ations into the house of commons,
snd in it were s   number ol items
affecting B. C.    These have to do
principally with railways.   Two ol
the items, however, have a peculiar import to North Vancouver, as
they materially affect the future of
I the city. One grant rails lor $200,-
looo  to assist the V. W. & V. rsil-
way in the construction of its pro
' posed bridge across the inlet at the
I Second Narrows.
Thc other item is a grant ol
116,400 per mile lor 100 miles nl
the V.W. & Y. proposed road Irom
here to connect with the G. T. P.
at Fort George. Now that these
substantial grants are assured, it
may be taken that both projects
are within measurable distance ol
accomplishment. With these
fsctors becoming cerlsinties Norlli
Vancouver's future ia sssured.
That the granting of the subsidy
to the Second Narrows bridge and
to the railway towards Fort George
is of the greatest importance in the
estimation of the well informed
public, is clearly evident from the
way iu which those who profess to
know are busy putting two and two
together and drawing infallible conclusions. Those who arc an (ait in
railway matters state that the only
sufficient explanation lor the subsidies is the conclusion that the
Grand Trunk Pacific and the V.
VV.& V. have come to an understanding, mutually satisfactory.
The impossibility of the latter road
unaided being able to procure the
subsidies, is dt clared from the
fact that the lill'. would not
have allowed such assistance to be
given a rival company for a line of
railway to cover territory included
in tlieir own scheme; while the
reason given for the issuance of
the subsidies in the name of tbc
V.W.& Y., but in reality for the G.
T. P., is that the latter is so heavily subsidized that no further
grants could bl seemed from the
government in a direct way.
It is lurther pointed out that the
grant of $200,000 lor lhe bridge, is
$50,000 greater than was originally asked for, and this astonishing
liberality calls (or some hidden influence of 110 mean calibre.    It is

A Handy Reference for the
Residents of the City
This directory has been issued
by the board of trade and has been
designed to enable residents ol
North Vancouver to readily locate
local merchants, who are able to
supply their requirements in the
several lines of merchandise, and
thus to counteract, as far as possible, the tendency to do their trading out of town.
