(From Tuesday's Dally)
Last evening, for the first time in
three weeks, the eity couneil held
forth in their regular business session
with two of the couneihmn's posi
tions of honor vacant. The meeting
was quite a lengthy one and a long list
of bills wire allowed. After the calling
of the roll and rending the minutes
of the last meeting, a petition wus read
from Gering & Company, asking that
they be granted a druggists permit
A communication from the clerk of
the district couit was given, notifying
the couneil that a supcrscdeous bond
had been filed for the appealing of
me case to the supreme court. After
considerable gjiaggling as to whether
the council hud the newer to erunt
such a permit while an appeal was pend-
uig, a mouon i,y Mr. Booknieycr
brought a unanimous decision in favor
of the granting of the permit.
A communication from Justice I it-
tie was read nskimr that II MTI.'lll him
our.t of grading be done on Oak street
between Mth and Seventh which met
the approval of the city fathers
communication was presented, signed
oy .Messrs. M'Matcr, Becson, Dwycr,
Dovey, Gering. Leonard and Hold-
man, for the permission to install a
private sewir from Main pine at 0th
aim ine extending 1-2 blocks north.
the permission was granted and
resolution to that (fleet was presented
and caried. The report from the chief
of police showed eleven arrests had
been made during the past month.
1 he mayor laid st ress on t he statement
that he wished a list made out of all
occupation taxes not paid up by the
next meeting in order that action
may taken to make the delinquents
come to time at onec. Reports from
different departments were made in
cluding fire company and police judge
reports. A motion went through or
dering the street commissioner to
file papers showing the value of the
material used in the street work and
the locations where the material was
put in. A report from the Streets,
Alleys and Bridges committee showed
II. C. McMakcn's bids to be the lowest
on permanent cement walks and cross
ings and, on a movement of Mr'. Weber
he was given the city's work for the
coming year. Mr. Kurtz of the ceme
tery committee brought before the
council the fact that the armcarnnco
of the cemetery was beinir minrd l,v
the work of gophers and ground snuir-
rels and he urged that some means be
taken at once for the extermination
of the pests although he did not frame
up the matter as a motion. The Cem
etery committee is now looking dfor
some Pied Piper or poison expert who
is willing to rid the grounds of the
varmin.
Mayor Sat tier expressed himself in
favor of the raising of the slaary of
the office of chief of police and referred
the matter to the nolice committ
who, if they think it, are to have the
city attorney draw up an ordinance
boosting the pay check of the head
officer.
Under the head of new business,
a representative of the Omaha cngin
ering company presented a set of blue
prints and specifications for the new
brick paving, which were complete
with the exceptions of the grading
details. The different surfaces were
presented in three different classes:
Class A: Vitrified brick surface,
4 inch cement base,l 1-2 inch sand
filler, joints sand filled; price $2.10
per yd.
Class 13: Vitrified brick surface,
5 inch cement base, 1 1-2 inch sand
filler, joints sand filled; price $2.25 per
yd.
Class C. Utiificd brick surface,
4 inch sand base, 2 inch common
brink filler oovered with 2 ienh sand
filler, sand filled joints, price $2.00
per yd.
The latter, however, will not be con
sidered as the council's resolutions call
for cement base. There were two class
cs of curb described:
Class A. 20 inches deep, G inches
thick, price .55 per ft.
Class B. 24 inches deep, 6 inches
thick, price .CO per ft.
270 feet of curbing were reported

OLDEST PAPER IN CASS CO.

NOW IS THE TIME TO SUBSCRIBE FOR THE NEWS
to be in place at present that would
lartlly stand being reset, as they arc
of soft lime Htone which will crumble
f moved. 252 feet can be reset at
a cost of 12c per lineal foot. 230 feet
of onk headers will be needed at the
mis of the paving, no estinniate on
cost. Iroin the topography it was
shown that the cuts and fills will about
ballaiice each other and no great am
ount of work will be necessary to put
the street in readiness for the paving.
The plans and specification were re
ferred to the proper committee with
instructions to report ut the next,
meeting. The city attorney will
be consulted as to the legal detail
of the work and will probably be pres-
nt at the lutuje meetings of the body.
N(UinroU3 repairs were ordered
about the city. In the First ward an
oak crossing was ordered at Walnut
and Sixth streets. From the council
man of the second ward, oame the
rcqu'st for a ditch at Eighth and Vine
streets and repairs on the Tenth street
bridge, which were ordered and the
street committee was given power to
act in the extending of a permanent
walk under the viaduct. Culvert re
pairs were ordered for the Third ward
aud numerous other repairs requested
were reierrea to the Streets. Allevs
and Jiridges committee. Among the
improvements ordered for the Fourth
ward was a fill at Uock and Silver
streets and a small amount nf npu?
tiling. The grading fior a permanent
walk at Marble and Lincoln
avenue and the construction of a per
manent waiK to replace the delani-
datcd one now in use at the city park
were leu to the proper committee
which will report at a future meetinir.
The clerk was ordered to notify the
county commissioners of the bad con
dition of their Granite street bridge.
For the Fifth ward, orders were given
for grading and tiling on Cass and
Lincoln avenues and several sewers,
which are clogged, are to have atten
tion. The proposition presented by .Mr.
Gravett, a representative of the Red
Men for the securing of the principal
busiiuss treets and special police for
the Fourth of July met with no oppo-s
ution on the part of the citv dud
but it was considered best to have the
resolution presented in writing for
action at the next meeting of the body.
Gravett introduced the request from
the city police for new stars. Mr.
Neuman could not see what had be
come of the half dozen stars ordered
for the force a year or so ago, but Mr.
Dwycr cleared that up by stating his
presumption that "the heavy work
which the police had been doing
had worn out their badges." The
matter of new ones was referrred to
the police committee. An ordinance
was passed creating Paving District
No. 4 on Pearl street which is to be
paved with 30 ft., 10 inch macadam.
Following a few other minor matters
of business the meeting was adjourned

Burlington Notes.
Yesterday was pay day at the shops
and the salaries aggregated a much
larger amount than they had forsev-
eral months. The departments arc
all running on good time now and the
force is a little alove the avem
which accounts for the increase in
the pay roll. The streets wero m
during the evening hours with hun
dreds of shop men who were cashing
their checks and making heavy pur
chases, and evert hing was kept in
a most orderly condition.
Contractors in charge of the con
struction of shop buildings at Have
lock have told shop men that part of
the buildings may be occupied by the
railroad company Home time in July.
It is said that machinery for the big
shops has been ordered and that it
will be placed just as soon as the shop
buildings are ready, and some of the
old machinery will be used from
the old erecting shop.
The new concrete smokestack which
has been erected at the power house
has been complete for some time and
the concrete haa dried and turnrd
white.
Offices Looking Bright.
The othec rooms of Doctors T. P.
anil J. S. LivinflHtoti are being bright
ened up by coats of new paper and a
few daubs of paint . The surgical room
jin the rear of the building was re
cently replastered, after a portion of
the ceiling had become loose. The pri
vate office of the physicians is being
coated a dark green with a lighter
ceiling and border, the main room in
a dark brown and the hall in buff
and tan. The papering of the rooms
is a big undertaking even though the
rooms are not large. They are filled
with desks and cases which necessi
tate much elbow grease in moving.
