Wickett, Enfield, Thomas, Rose and Schumacher present. Mr. Thomas, reporting for the committee appointed to interview the city trustees as to street paving, said the committee had met Trustees Fiscus and Gates, and with these gentlemen had gone over the matter. It was agreed that a paving district should be formed, extending back two blocks from streets paved, and that property in this district pay ten per cent toward the cost of paving. Property owners fronting streets paved will be assessed 50 per cent of the cost. The paving area agreed upon extends from Santa Ana street to Sycamore on Los Angeles, and from Olive street to Palm on Center. A district extending back two blocks from these thoroughfares had been mapped out, and the matter was now up to the city trustees to start proceedings necessary to beginning the work. A. A. Mills addressed the chamber briefly on good roads.

A platform had been erected to the left of the main entrance and here the grand officers gathered with others to participate in the ceremonies. An address of welcome was delivered by Richard Melrose, who referred to the laying of the corner stone of the Central grammar school by the Masonic grand lodge 28 years ago. The town had, he said, made many advances since that time, and was now about to witness the laying of the corner stone in one of the finest libraries in Southern California. Rev. Moore offered prayer, while the throng stood with bared heads reverently. Oscar Lawler, grand master of the grand lodge, made a brief address, in which he said the pleasing duty of laying the corner stone of the public library devolved upon him, and he accepted the task with great pleasure. The grand master was assisted by Grand Senior Warden Spake, Grand Junior Warden Angell and Grand Treasurer Grimshaw. The grand master was presented with a handsome solid silver trowel by the local lodge, with which to place mortar about the stone. On the stone being placed in its receptacle, the compass, square and plumb were applied by the grand senior warden, grand junior warden and grand treasurer. Each in turn reported to the master that the work of the artisan had been satisfactorily done. In the corner stone were placed a roster of members of the local masonic lodge, names of grand officers, local papers, coins bearing date of current year and other articles. Before closing the lid the symbolic corn of nourishment, wine of refreshment and oil of joy were placed therein.

Simpson contemplates a visit to his ranch in Montana the coming spring. He will probably be accompanied by A. T. Wallop. Mr. Simpson resided many years in Montana, being engaged in the cattle business. In 1886 he witnessed a battle between 2000 Crow Indians and 700 United States soldiers at Fort Custer. Two Indian chiefs labored under the delusion that a lotion prepared by their medicine man rendered them impervious to the soldiers' bullets. One of the chiefs permitted himself to be shot at, after applying the medicine to the region over the heart. He was shot near the heart, but by deflection of the bullet was not seriously injured. This caused the redskins to regard the medicine as rendering them immune from the usual effects of gunshot wounds. Mr. Simpson with twenty-five other cattlemen were on the Indian reservation, and were warned by the general commanding the troops. They rode to the bank of the Little He was jacking up a belongings to Mike Macias, beneath the structure at when it fell upon him, pinching the earth.

This caused the redskins to regard the medicine as rending them immune from the usual effects of gunshot wounds. Mr. Simpson with twenty-five other cattlemen were on the Indian reservation, and were warned by the general commanding the troops. They rode to the bank of the Little Bighorn river, a mile from the fort, where they remained in plain view of the battle. The Indians, decked in their hideous war paint and stripped for a fight, rode to within 200 yards of the fort, and opened fire, killing five soldiers. The troops gave them a volley, killing 35; the two chiefs were among the killed. The Indians thereupon surrendered. Mr. Simpson and his party returned to the fort, and later procured their cattle from the reservation for shipment. At another time witnessed a fight between several hundred Crows and another tribe, in which many were killed. His home in Montana is eighty miles from the scene of the Custer massacre, where memorial services are held each year, and where monuments mark the spot where the soldiers fell in the massacre. Postmaster Duckworth has been confined to his home for a fortnight past with illness. He came down town on Tuesday, but had to return home and go to bed. Miss Butler of Marion, Ohio, was a guest this week of Mr. and Mrs. Dietrich.
