CITY FORESTER MUST WORK.

Unheard-Of Hardship Imposed on Of-
ficeholder by Council.

Unless the upper house changes its mind, the new city forester, Stephen C. Woodson, will have to do his own work. An ordinance was introduced last night to give him a foreman, at $2.50 per day.

"I do not suppose the forester has to go out himself and trim the trees," said Alderman Tillhof, "but I do expect that he will have to walk around and see that his men do the work."

"I rather think as you do," the president added.

The ordinance was thereupon referred to the finance committee, to be lost sight of.
