Bi r. inning at 2 o'clock today, the Sal- vation army headquarters at IJI Wil- mlngton street will assume unusual activity, for from that hour on be- tween 200 and 30U baskets of food will b! distributed. Each basket will con- lain chicken, beef, four kinds of veg- etables, tea, coffee, sugar, fruit and ; The supply in each basket is large enough for a family of five per- sons and will provide a most excellent Christmas d'.nner for many worthy ones. A personal investigation of every oaM of institution has been made by .Major Alfred Harris or some of his co-workers, so as to prevent impostors from depriving worthy ones of a Christmas dinner, This afternoon thirty boys and thirty girls, ward! Of the Salvation Army, will gather at the Wilmington street head- quarters and will journey to a private i. ildence near Blminl baths for a gen- eral romp and good time. Hero pres- ents will be given to the youngsters and the sadness of their lot forgotten for the time being, Promptly at noon tomorrow 1000 men and women will sit down to the great Christmas dinner of the army. The dinner will be served In the building at 431 South Hill street. The repast will be tit for a king and will be for any and all who have no other invi- tatlon. Every child in I.os Angeles Is In- | vitfd to attend the great Christinas celebration to be held next Wednesday nlghl .a the Hill Itreet headquarters of the Salvation Army. Provisions have been made already for isoo, as | that is the usual number that at- tend tln> annual children'! party of the j army. This will be one of the really | Interesting .-inhts of the holiday Ma- son, for in the audience will be found Children Of all ages, all sizes, all con- ditions and all nationalities.

The girls will get dolls and the boys knives, besides candy, nuts, fruit and other things dear to the childish heart and stomach. Instead of a big Christmas dinner this year, the Volunteers have used the money donated them in furnishing merchandise orders to worthy fam- ilies. These orders are on the Fifth Street store, and call for any needed article from shoes to a dress. About, 100 pairs of shoes have been arranged for as a special Christmas present to that number of needy little ones. All the orphanages in Los Angeles will bless the Klks on Christmas day, tor the Klks will bring- joy and glad- ness to the hearts of every little waif In the city. Special gifts will be made to all orphans as well as to widows and unfortunate persons. The relief work of the b'lks w ill bo done in such a manner that the recipients will not know where the gifts of food, cloth- ing and useful articles came from. "Santa CIaUS" Motley H. Flint, alias postmaster of Los Angeles, is about the busiest man In town today. Be- tween looking after postal business! and distributing the gifts, which the \u25a0 Bbrlners have provided for unfortunate men, women and children of Los An- gl I. , his time is taken up from dawn i.i dark and then some.

ENGINE HOUSE WILL BE BUILT COST OF FIRE STATION CON- SIDERABLY REDUCED Luxuries in Building Are Eliminated So It Can Be Constructed for Price Satisfactory to Commission The fire engine house on Figueroa street, north of Seventh, will be built. but it will nol contain marble wash- -1 1 ins an.l marble facings in the shower baths. A few other luxuries will a!s.> !>.- eliminated and the cost of the structure reduced from $80,000. an amount somewhat neareY to what the lii" commission considers reason- for B first class tire engine house. In effect this was the decision of the Bre commission yesterday when F. 11. Porter, chief inspector of the fire Inspection bureau of the Pacific coast, t<>M the commission the engineer! for the national board of underwriter! would l>e in Lbs Angles in January, and it would be much to the advan- \u25a0\u25a0t the city from thn standpoint of Insurance rates if something detl- nite shall have been done about this particular house at that time. When the fire commission found the lowest bid for the engine house, which had been estli I i|. was more than 180,000, It advised the board ibllc works to reject all bids and not award the contract. But the ne- cessity for the engine house fmm an Insurance standpoint put another phase on Hip matter and the commis- sion n n Idi 1 1 its action. The mat- ter waa placed in the hands of the commltti '\u25a0 of the who!.' for a recom- mendation. In connection -\\:h this engine house the flr mmlsulon yesterday refused t.. approve the demand of J. P. Krem- ple for $3033.59, Kremple Is the archi- tect for tins engine house, and the amount of the demand represented 3ij per ci rit of the contract prii the building, which is the amount his contract provides when the plans are compli The demand was held up on the ground that i; is customary to allow rchltei t only ~'j i>"r cent when plans are completed and the rest of per '"lit when the building Is finished. It is also considered prob- able that Kremple's plans will be re- jected altogether.

Cham- tin. This liiil was presented to the Or* commission for payment last week, and tin- commission a^ked Dr. s. .f. Quint, police Hurgeon, to explain. Dr. Quint dei I ired thai Walker had been taken to the receiving hospital with a compound fracture of the leg, sus- tained while lie was on duty, and that it was tin- duty ni the police Burgeons to care for his injury.

The fire engine house on Figueroastreet, north of Seventh, will be built.but it will nol contain marble wash--1 1 ins an.l marble facings in theshower baths.

for B first class tire engine house.In effect this was the decision of

the Bre commission yesterday when F.11. Porter, chief inspector of the fireInspection bureau of the Pacific coast,t<>M the commission the engineer! forthe national board of underwriter!would l>e in Lbs Angles in January,and it would be much to the advan-

\u25a0\u25a0t the city from thn standpointof Insurance rates if something detl-nite shall have been done about thisparticular house at that time.

When the fire commission found thelowest bid for the engine house, whichhad been estli I i|. wasmore than 180,000, It advised the board

ibllc works to reject all bids andnot award the contract. But the ne-cessity for the engine house fmm anInsurance standpoint put anotherphase on Hip matter and the commis-sion n n Idi 1 1 its action. The mat-ter waa placed in the hands of thecommltti '\u25a0 of the who!.' for a recom-mendation.

The demand was held up on theground that i; is customary to allow
