and show a profit. It had been successfully Übed for cooking a Sunday dinner under their observation and in a different typo of range to that used for coal gas. I| was not apparently suitable for power purposes. The light was a beautifully soft one, and in one case investigated by them the cost of lighting a boot shop was 4s. for four 85 cp. lumps for 36 hours. This was equal to four 25 c.p. lamps burning fours daily for 31 days for four shillings nett with petrol gas at ss. per 1000 ft. The report was adopted and the board's representatives tendered a vote of thanks and on McCurdy's motion it was resolved to obtain an estimate of the cost of installation and that the water inspector ascertain and report how many business men and householdeis would become consumers with the board's guarantee that the gas would be sold at not more thanks, per 1000 ft. nett. Robertson notified liis intention of moving to submit the gas scheme to a poll of the ratepayers as soon us possible.' iThe probable rate required as security for the Gasworks loan would be in the £ on the Unimproved Value, but as the scheme should be self supporting with 100 consumers—and probably give free street lighting also—the proposal to instal petrol gas deserves careful, and probably favourable consideration of the ratepayers—Ed.] McCurdy further held over his Fire Brigade Equipment loan proposals so that one poll would suffice for it and the proposal of Webb re Maidstone Park, and Robertson's lighting proposals. [The Fire Brigade loan is not to exceed £350, for which a special rate of one-twenty-fourth of a penny would be levied as security for the loan but NOT'COLLECTED. The principal and interest (about £2l a year) being paid out of the General Account as is now done in the case of the Office Building Loan, the Pine Avenue Widening Loan, and the Waterworks Site Purchase Loan—none of the special rates for which are collected. The Fire Brigade Loan is needed to refund to the General Account the moneys paid out for fire extinguishing appliances and equipment, so that the road works authorised may be proceeded with as soon as the cash is refunded—Ed.] As the. new Valuation Roll had not come to hand there was no business for the special meeting to transact.
