Mr. Nailer thought that there waa a bill from
the Hoard of Aldermen which would do Just aa
well.
The bin of Mr. Connolly wa readf which pro
vide for the purchase of wood to the amount ef
2,500. under the direction or tbe Mayor, for the

Mr Crocker, though he thought the remarks
of the gentleman from tho First ward very good,
thought 2,b00 waa needed at onoe, and tbe wood
should be purchased and placed in dlstributtoo.
further appropriations might be necessary, but
he thought that the sum called for by the resolu
tion was now needed.
Mr. N alley said the Provident Aid Society had
adopted rules for the distribution of chanty
which gave only to those worthy, and the society
had facilities fur finding out the needy and des
titute '
Mr. Halton believed that the sooletr would
faithfully perform their duties, and distribute
the wood properly,
Mr.O 8. Haker made a few ether remarks, In
which hesald that charity was likely to be abused,
astt has been in many cases. Private purses
were open to charity, and he thought it would
be well, when the publio could not give any more,
for the Councils to step in and assist, lie thought
that would be plenty time for them to act.
Mr. Hall favored the passage of the resolution,
aad called for the previous question.
The bill, with the amendment of A. P. Clark
flving the distribution ot the wood to the Pror

And everything fitted for play.
