The affairs of the city treasurer's office are ready to be transferred to Mr. Fleckeustein, but the new treasurer has not yet decided whea he will take possession. He will probably not enter upon his duties this week. By Monday of next week, however, he will very likely be ready to take charge of the office. The time allowed the bondsmen to file an answer to the summons and complaint served by the city expired yesterday.

But the papers were not ready. The defendants' attorney asked an extension of twenty days. The city attorney granted the request. John N. Beckley, the defendants' attorney, is out of the city.

A Democrat ad Chp.oxicle reporter saw City Attorney Ernst in the Powers Hotel yesterday afternoon and asked him one or two questions about the suit against the bondsmen. Is the report published in an afternoon paper that you have granted the bondsmen an additional twenty days in which to serve an answer to the summons and complaint, I haven't seen the afternoon papers. ''The statement is made that you have granted such an extension. Is that the case 'I don't care to furnish the Democrat and Chronicle any information. But this is a matter of public city business.

don't care a what It Is. I don't c.tre to furnish the Democrat and Chronicle any information. As the city attorney seemed insensible to the softening influence of a bright spring day and a warm sun, the reporter left him to enjoy his own bilious meditations and a newly lighted cigar. WHAT MR. TUBES THINKS.

His Opinion Relative to the Water Meter Question. Some days ago Alderman Kelly asked Chief Engineer Tubbs to submit his opinion on the water meter question. In reply Mr. Tubbs has written a long letter in which he discusses the subject very fully. The letter begins with a statement of the number, size and make of meters set last year.

The expense per single meter and the total cost are also given. The writer describes the systems metered and then says Any general metering beyond the classes enumerated must now der.l with the private house consumption. It is probably true that the principal waste now occurs in the smaller and cheaper classes of tenement houses, and it is just this class of services which it is most difficult and expensive to meter. Mr. Tubbs submits som9 figures, showing the facilities for setting meters, now at the disposal of the department.

He estimates the average cost of each meter from 18 to lit reference to charging to the next tax levy the $150, 000 reoum-mended, Mr. Tubbs saj-s: 'In consideration that the next tax levy must from recent event be unexpectedly large, I see no such urgent reason for extreme haste in putting on 150, 000 worth of meters in a single year as would warrant increasing the burdens of the taxpayers to that extent. GROWTH OF A CHURCH. Annual Church Day of the Bronson Avenue Congregation. The Bronson Avenue Baptist Church, one of the most thriving of the young churches which have sprung up in this City during the last few years, celebrated its second annual church day last night.

S. C. E. counts 100 energetic members. A pleasing surpriso to the members of the church was the presentation of tastefully bound copies of the covenant and the articles of belief by the pastor, Rev.

J. Ross Lynch, the work having been done by himself upon a private printing press. Reports from the different committee were followed by a brief address by the pastor and a musical and literary programme in which there was recitations by Miss Susie Maxson, Miss Grace Shedd, a reading by Mrs. Robert Hutchinson and songs by a quartette, Mrs. J.

S. Avery, Mrs. Lynch, Mrs. Bailev and Miss Maxson. PROTECT THE BIRDS.

The Humane Society Looking for the Small Boy With a Gun. At the monthly meeting yesterday Albert E. Dumble reported that small boys had been shooting indiscriminately the birds which flock in Deep Hollow ravine. This is a favorite resort for birds, and the recent pleasant days have brought them back in large numbers. The society is determined to put a stop to the practice of shooting them, and will prosecute the offenders.

The report from the children's committee showed that twenty-three cases had been investigated, involving forty-seven children. There were two arrests and three convictions. Thirty-eight cases were investigated by the animal committee, twenty-eight of which were sustained. Three infirm horses and three dogs were killed Ly the society's agents.

Hooker, one of our honorary managers. Alter a long illness she entered into rest in January. For many years she was one of the most trusted and efficient members of our board, and although for some lime before her death ill-health prevented her active participation in the worit, her interest and svmpathy were Llwaxs with us. and in her we have losi a sincere long-tried triend. In reviewing our year work many kindly pleasant laces arise in our memory to all of whom we owe a debt of gratitude.

First and most Important to our domestic neace and comfort is our matron, Mrs. Putuau. who during the nine years has ministered so wisely and kii. illy to our large household. And ail who have under her direction, each in her own sphere, been engaged in the work of the Homo' deserve our hearty thanks for tne faithful discharge of duty.

We would especially mention the nurses whoso onerous tasks have been well performed. Dr. Williams, Dr. Henkeil, Dr. Sumner and Dr.

Alter the supper a very pleasant programme of tuusic and recitations was rendered by the choir assisted by Miss Bertha Clark, Miss Marian Hale ami Miss Mandeville. We rejoice in anything which adds brightness to these lonely hearts and while we would most cotd tally thank those instrumental in this we know that the of doing such a kindness and the happy laces of the oiJ ia lies, is better couiprnsiuii.il to thru! than any thanks.
