Mawhinney\nJV\nOn Monday night after a , late\nsupper in Raymer's Hall in connection with L.O.L. 1870, the \"meeting was cancer to oruer, anu the\nattention of the large number present was directed by the Chaplain\nto the sorrowful fact that they were\nthat night called to say good-bye\nto the oldest member of the association in Kelowna.\nOn behalf of the fraternity, Mr.\nR. Copeland handed Mr. Mawhinney a neatly bound copy of the\nscriptures, the remark being made\nat the same time as to the suitableness of the gift to him, who prized\nthe Bible so highly, which .was a\ncharter of a nation's liberty.\nThe recipient responded with\nmuch feeling in his own patriarchal\nand felicitous manner. Kindly references were made by speakers to\nMr. Mawhinney's worth, not only\nto the Orange Lodge to which he\nhad been an \"inspiration,\" but because of the efforts he had put\nforth \" to guide the feet of others\ninto the way of peace.\"\nHe was described by one as\nhaving been \"a good neighbor, a\nkind friend, a genial companion,\nan able citizen, a wise councellor\nand a father in Israel.\" He had\nwon the respect of all because he\nfulfilled the Soloman's description-\n\" the hoary head is a crown of\nglory, if it be found in the way\nof righteousness.\"\n' A largei number were at the boat\nin the morning to say good-bye to\nMr. Mawhinney and family, who\nwas commencing his journey to\nVictoria.\nThe public meeting called by the\ncity council to discuss the four\nmoney by-laws which are to be\nvoted upon next Tuesday was held\nin Raymer's Hall Tuesday evening\nsome seventy or eighty ot the ratepayers attending. Hi8 Worship the\nMayor, Mr. D. W. Sutherland occupied the chair, and briefly announced the object of the meeting.\nOne of the by-laws, he said, was\nto borrow $ 1,000 to build an implement shed, for the housing of\nthe took and implements owned\nby the city. Personally he thought\nthe amount was rather small, and\ndid not see how the board of Works\ncould expect to build much of a\nshed for that sum. It was, however, from considerations of economy that the amount had been\nkept low.\nAnother by-law was in connection with the water and light department, and aimed at borrowing\n$5,000 to pay for certain extension-\nAt the present time both undertakings were paying their way,; in fact\nwere more than paying. The\nplant and extensions wefe^ earning\nsufficient to pay interest and sinking fund on all the debentures, and\nthe. city as a whole would not be\ncalled upon to contribute anything\nfrom the general revenue. The\nextensions made and proposed\nwete very necessary. The water\nespecially was very much wanted\nboth in the way of a general service to householders, and os a. protection from, fire to the citv at large.\nThe tyy-.law'might have beeni?sub-\nmitted earlier, but the counciLhad\nbeen unwilling to incur the exjjgjnse\n.... -ff^>mt '-'.\u25a0\u25a0:.

As a result it had been\nnecessary to expend in advance\nsome of the $5,000\"asked for.\nThe principal by-law was to borrow money fo purchase land which\nwould be needed inthe future\/foy\na sewerage system, and at present\nfor use in connection with the\nscavenging system..\nThe council had, during the present year, devoted a great deal of\ntime to the matter of a sewerage\nsystem for the city. A large amount bf information had been secured and compiled for the use of\nfuture councils. Not all of the information thus secured had been\nmade public, but after much consideration the council had come to\nthe conclusion that the best system\nof disposal bf the sewage would be\nby. means of a sewage farm ; that\nit would be more economical, and\ncheaper to instal. There were\nthree reports on the matter at present before the council, one from a\nprominent authority at the coast,\nand two - from local men. The\noutside engineerhad favored the\nidea of septic tanks as a means of\ndisposal, and had estimated the\ncost at about $36,000. This wa?\nexcluding the cost of pumping, as\nit made no difference what system\nwas adopted, whether septic tanks\nor sewage farm, the sewage would\nhave to be pumped. By employing a farm the cost of the disposal\nplant would be greatly reduced.\nThe land itself would cost only\n$ 12,000; then there would be necessary a delivery pipe, which would\nnot be a very expensive item.\nReferring to the cost of the land\nit was proposed to purchase, the\nMayor eontinued, the lease on jhe\nland at present used by the scavenger ran out in the spring. If the\nland now offered was not purchased, the new council would then\nbe up against the purchase of sufficient ground for the scavenger's\npurpose. . This land would be\ndifficult to get, and might moreover\nbe very expensive, They would\nhave to hetve such a place, and\nwould not likely get off for less\nthan $5,000. Deducting this cost\nfrom the price of the land it was\ndesired to purchase, left only a\nsmall extra outlay to secure a site\nfor a future sewage farm.\nThe council, he pointed out, were\nnot asking for money for a sewerage system, but only for land which\nsome time would be required, and\nwhich in any case they had con- j\nsidered it necessary to secure.\nIn most places-all the expense of\na sewerage system was paid by the\npersons directly benefited. In\nVernon, for instance, the whole\ncost of septic tanks, land, etc., was\ncharged as a local improvement,\nand none out of the general revenue of the city. Probably a better plan was to have the city, as a\nwhole, buy the land and bear the\nexpense of a sewage farm and delivery pipe, and anything over that\nto charge to the persons benefited.\nThus all the cost which the city\nwould be Called upon to meet\nwould be about $30,000 or $35,000.\n1 he rest of the money would be\nr.ised by way of local improvement debentures, in the same way\nas money was obtained for sidewalks. \u2022 \"\nThe fourth by-law, continued the\nMayor, was in reference to the purr\nchase of the remaining part of the\npark, consisting of some three-\ntenths of an acre at the north-east\ncorner. The question was one,\nsaid the Mayor, which the city was\nhot pressing at all. The council\nhad thought it 'necessary to give\nthe people a chance to buy the\nland if they wanted it. The matter had come to a head while he\nhad been away at the coast, and\nin connection with it some reflec-\ntions had been cast upon Mr. D.\nLloyd-Jones, the owner of the land.\nThe latter had in consequence of\nwhat had been said, expressed his\nwillingness to let the city have a\nchance of buying; and bad made\nthe necessary arrangements with\nthe party who held an option upon\nthe property;. Iri making the kind\nbffeVMr. Lloyd-Jones had reduced [_,'\nthe price.to the city by $5,000,\nMr. D. Lloyd-Jones, who was\npresent, spoke 'briefly in explanation. He sold the lot to Mr. De\nHart for a much higher figure, but\nowing to what had been said, he\nhad been willing to' let the city\nhave a chance to buy it. He was\nnot anxious, howevir, to sell it to\nthe city.. It would be a good thing\nto have a new hotel, and by the\nexchange proposed the promenade\nwould be kept open. He spoke\nwith some indignation of the foolish\nslanders\" which had been going\naround..Some people had actually\nsaid they did not know the corner\nwaa being reserved when the park\nwas sold to the city, whereas the\nmatter had been fully and publicly\ndiscussed at the time. He had arranged to sell the land at the time\nto a local syndicate for $30,000, but\nhad offered it to the city for $1000\nless. The syndicate, of which he\nhimself was one, had had the property subdivided, showing some\n$60,000 to $70,000 worth of lots.\nHe had offered, if the city were\nnot satisfied, to buy the property\nback again fbr$40,000 and pay 5\nper cent, interest from the time of\nits purchase.\nMayor Sutherland said the council at least fully understood and\nappreciated the kindness pf Mr.\nLloyd-Jones' offer, and the sacrifices he was making. They had\nfelt it their duty tb give the people\na chance to say whether they would\nbuy the land or not.\n\u2022 Mr. F. R. E. DeHart spoke on\nhis hotel project. He emphasized\nthe need for more and better accommodation for the city. The\nsite was ideal fbr the purpose. He\nwas no hotel man, and had no big\nthing to n.ake out of the scheme.\nHe had \"been pushing the thing for\nthe good of the town. His agreement with Mr. Lloyd-Jones in purchasing the corner had been to\nerect not less than a $100,000\nhotel. He had gone to the coast\ntb interest money in the scheme,\nbu{ when he had received the telegram asking him to withdraw his\noption, he had had no definite\nplan to offer.\n\" The hotel matter continued to\nhold the discussion for some time,\nwhen the subject was changed by\nMr. Parkinson speaking' on the\nsewage system.\nHe had gone carefully into the\nmatter, he said, and had consulted\nall available authorities, and come\nto the conclusion that the only\navailable means of disposal for the\ncity was a sewage farm, for which\nit was necessary to purchase a site.\nPersonally, he did not \"altogether\nfavor the lots mentioned in the bylaw, but preferred the adjoining\nlots. This, however, was a matter\nof detail, which could be arranged\nlater. It was advisable to purchase\nthe land while, it could be got for\nthe low price of $200 per acre.\nIt was obvious that as. soon as it\nwas drained and put to use it\nwould be worth at least $400.\nHe went at some length into the\nbenefits which the city would derive from a sewerage system. The\npresent opportunity of acquiring\nland for the farm should be taken.\nIt would be then up to the council\nto consider plans for installing the\nsystem.\nQuestions were asked and answered as(to the nature of the soil,\nand the suitability of the land for\nthe system. It seemed to be the\nopinion of all who had carefully\nexamined the place that it was eminently suitable for a sewage farm.\nMr. J. B. Whitehead asked if the\nland was not too near the city to\nallpw for extension. He also expressed the feaY that the enormous\ncost of the sewerage system, considering the scattered houses,\nwould be prohibitive. Mr. Parkinson thought that the increase in\nvalue of property served bv the\nsewers, would pay for the installation many times over.\nThe greater part of the evening\nwas devoted to the discussion of\nvarious phases of the sewage system, and the purchase of the land\nnamed in the by-law was strongly\nrecommended by several speakers.\nAid. Leckie spoke on the by-law\nrespecting water and light extension. About one-third of the five-\nthousand had been spent already\nin extending the waterworks, which\nthe city would have to pay whether\nor not. There need be no uneasiness on that score,, however.\nEnglish Church Bazaar\nSubstantial Sum Raised for\nBuilding Fund\nThe bazaar held under the auspices of the Women's Auxiliary\nand Chancel Guild of St. Michael's\nChurch last Saturday proved a\ngreat success. The ladies in charge\nof the different stalls had worked\nwith great enthusiasm and the hall\npresented a most charming effect\nof prettily blended colors.\nMrs. Hewetson in charge of the\nsweetstall, with Mrs. Rees and\nMrs. Crawford won first prize , for\nthe prettiest decorated stail. Mrs.\nBarlee had charge of the \" fancy\nstall\" assisted by Mrs. R. Jones\nand Mrs. Crowley. The scheme\nof the decoratons was in mauve\nand yellow, making a beautiful\nshow of color.\nMrs. Greene presided over the\nChancel Guild stall, where quantities of dainty and useful handkerchiefs, ties and collars were\nsold.\nMrs. Chapmnn was in charge of\nthe plain work stall assisted by\nMrs. Ransom, Mrs. Scott, and Mrs\nKhurler, and realized a good sum\nof money.\nThe Baby's stall was presided\nover by Mrs. Fettier assis ed by\nher little daughter, and proved a\nvery attractive booth.\nAfternoon lea in charge of Mrs'.\nJames and Mrs. . Matheson was\ndaintily served at small tables, the\nwaiting being done by the young\nladies of the Chancel Guild.\nThe fish pond and bran pie, in\ncharge of Mrs. McCullough assisted\nby the Misses Cross, Ransom and\nGreene, proved a most popular attraction for the youugsters and did\na \"roaring\" trade so that everything\nA. & T.

Until some means was\nprovided of switching these off\nduring the day, the generatorscould\nnot be run.\nAid. Copeland advised the bor-\nowing of $1000 for an implement\nshed. The city had accumulated\na good many tools and valuable\nimplements which should be kept\nunder lock and key.\nMr. Parkinson thought the\namount rather small. He wondered whether it would not be advisable to turn the fire hall into an\nimplement shed, and build a better\nfire hall.\nAs interest in the by-laws seem-\nsource of amusement.\n\u25a0y Th'e baby, show -was the feature\nof the afternoon, got up by Mrs.\nDuMoulin. 26 babies were enter-\n|-ed, and demonstrated to a large\nand interested audience what a\nsturdy, splendid lot of children\nflourish in the Sunny Okanagan.\nThey were divided into four\nclasses. The difficult positions' of\njudges were ably filled by Captain\nBrush and Mr. Lionl Taylor, who\nproved themselves most efficient\nand popular.\nThe prize winners were as follows :\nI. class, I to 8 months. 1st Baby\nKerr. 2nd Babv Band.\nII. class, 8 to 18 months.
