The contract for paving a number of streets, as ordered by the recent resolution. was awarded toR A. Wlckham, he being the lowest bidder. The council decided on Galesburg block as the material to be usf d. with concrete base, the depth of base to depend on the street paved. The price varies according to ths depth of the base. Wlckham was Instructed to commence the paving on Lower Broadway aa soon as the ourblng is In position. At the suggestion of Councilman Smith, It was decided to consolidate the bridge repair gang and the sidewalk repair gang under the supervision of Sidewalk Inspector Peterson as an economlo proposition. The committee on city property and bridges will have Jurisdiction over the consolidated gangs Instead of ths streets' and alleys committee. A resolution ordering the Northwestern railroad to construct culverts under ' Its tracks on Eleventh street at the Intersec tions of Avenues D, E, P and Q was adopted. At the suggestion of Councilman Tounk erman, the city solicitor was Instructed to prepare an ordinance requiring all water and gas meter Inspectors to be designated by some uniform or badge, so as to prevant Importers entering, and robbing houses and meters under the guise of such Inspectors. The matter of the business streets being littered with paper and other rubbish thrown or swept out of stores was the sub ject of a long dlscusBlon, during which Councilman Wallace voiced a protest against the condition of the waste paper boxes Installed by an advertising Arm at the street corners. Chief of Police Rich mond explained the trouble his men had In . compelling merchants to comply with the ordinances prohibiting the throwing or sweeping of waste paper and other refuse In the streets. Mayor Macrae said It was time the citizens learned to take some pride In the appearance of the streets, and It was decided that the several ordinances governing this matter should henceforth be rigidly enforced. Copies of the ordinance prohibiting the throwing of waste paper, etc., In the streets are to be served on every merchant and business house on Broadway between First street and the Northwestern tracks and on Pearl and Main streets by the police department, after which all violators will be promptly ar rested.

CONFIDENCE THICK EASILY Tl'HSBD Pol lee Recover Money, However, for Verdant Youth. Pete Foley, a youth as verdant as the em blem of his native country, who arrived at the Union Paclflo transfer yesterday morn iiitf en route from Maine to San Francisco, waa easy plucking for a brace of confidence sharks. At the transfer depot Foley was approached by a stranger who was also on his road to San Francisco. As they had several hours to wait the stranger sug gested a trip up towtt. Foley was agree able and the two came up town and vis ited a saloon. Hero Foley's new found friend met another friend. They proposed a game of cards after discovering that Foley had $135 in currency with him. Foley did not play cards, although assured he oould easily double his money. Foley's w found friend, however, got into the game after borrowing $125 from Foley, giv ing him tn return a check for $300. The third man won the money and shortly after disappeared, Foley's friend then said they would go out and get the check cashed so that Foley could reimburse himself. The stranger took Foley to Omaha and while In a saloon on the way to th bank made his exit by the rear door. Foley waited and waited until well on Into the afternoon, and then becoming suspicious confided his sus picions to the man behind the bar. The bartender advised him to see the police, which advice Foley followed. An officer from the Omaha force escorted Foley back across the river and the local police took the matter up. Aa a result U P. Hill, a bartender In the Opera house saloon, was taken to police headquarters, Foley identi fying the saloon. as the place where the trick was turned on him. Hill was later released after a charge of grand1 larceny had been entered on the register against him as the proprietor of the saloon handed to Chief Richmond a check for the $125 which Foley had lost. Foley missed his train yesterday after noon, but will be sent on his way rejoicing today. The money which Chief Richmond recovered for him. however, will not be en trusted to Foley for fear he may be bun coed out of it again before he reaches his destination. Major Richmond wtll send the money to San Francisco for Foley and he will have to get along until he arrive there with the $10 which the confidence men con siderately did not take from him.
