Clerk Wood reported that he had called up the county auditor by telephone and ascertained the assessed valuation of Corona property to be $1,045,175, which amount does not include the railway valuation and which of itself amounts to approximately $30,000. The limit of taxes possible to raise on the present valuation, exclusive of that allowed for the Library Fund is $7,838.81, and taking into consideration the railway valuation would increase the amount to $8,000. The amount collectable for the Library Fund at the highest rate allowed by law would make an ad ditional amount of $2,000,35, thereby making a total of $10,150.35. W. C. Barth and Geo. Brown were a com-mitee that, appeared before the trustees to ask for the full amount of taxes for library fund.ORDINANCESOrdinance No. 132 regulating the construction of all stairways on the street leading down to the basements, came up for its first reading but its provisions beiug objected by H. H. Holmes, was laid on the table for consideration of the Board when all the members were present.Oridnance 132, which is the new building ordinance, passes its second reading and is now a law, appearing in full in this issue of the Courier.This ordinance is a most important document for its orovision must now be carefully consulted by all who are now building or contemplating building. It has been printed in convenient form that it may be cut from the Courier and preserved. Those who take this precaution will find that the printed ordinance will serve them many a good stead and likely save them many dollars. Be sure to cut out the ordinance for future reference. If in need of extra copies apply at the Courier office at once before supply is exhausted.BUILDING INSPECTORThe compensation of the building inspector was fixed at 50c per hour for any time he may give the work in addition to the fees. Some of the members thought this was insufficient for Inspectors Savery’s efii-iind Makes ExcellentBread and CakesS. Brennan, concerning whom the Courier spoke of last week as having purchased the Star Bakery and refer-ing therin to his pre-eminent success in his chosen line, is now on the ground making bread and pastry, cakes and confections and the way he is going after the business convinces all that he had a thorough apprenticeship and knows the business from the ground up. In fact Mr. Brennan nas been in the habit of making many fancy cakes and confections that he looks around in his small quarters in dismay and asks where he will put his goods and whore he will get the capacity to bake them.“1 should have a full store front1’, he said to a Courier reporter thisweek,4‘just to display my goods, and as for retailing them 1 need double that capacity1’.About the first thing Mr. Brennan noticed when he struck the town was that large part of the bread consumed in the city was shipped in from outside towns. He was quick to see that this was an inconvenience to the grocers, that it invariably compelled the community to eat either stale bread or that which was not strickly fresh, and that worst of all it compelled the sendiug out of town a great amount of local money which Corona produces but really does not get the benefit of as an interchanging medium. His purpose was to circumvent this custom,believing that in his endeavor he would have the hearty co-operation of all the dealers. And sure enough a visitation of the business houses revealed the fact that every one was more than willing to sell local bread if the quality were guaranteed. Mr. Bren'nan has demonstrated beyond a doubt that his bread is gilt edge and today he is supplying every grocer in the city which compels the baking of about 400 to 500 loaves daily at present although this amount he expects will soon be largely increased.FOR SALE— 18 acres of fine alfalfa on Magnolia Avenue at May siding, for prices, terms, etc., address,O.
