AT the meeting Of the council on
I tuesday, the resolution introduced by
Alderman Wright at previous meeting
to remove number of sidewalk in diff
ferent parts OF the city, was so amended
as to not interfere with the high side
walk on Fourteenth street between Wal
nut and Cedar streets, and on Cedar be-
tween Fourteenth and Fifteenth streets.
This will be gratifying news to those who
are interested in this walk remaining as
il is.
The suspension of operations by the
narrow guage railroad causes considera-
BILE complaint among people living along
the line of that road, and there are those
who threaten 10 see If something can
not be done to compel the Cairo and st.
Louis railroad company to comply with
their charter. The people paid dearly
to help construct the road, and 1t IS
claimed that at no time has it fully came
up to what the public had a right to ex"
pect OF it.
Mr.. Albert Grinder desires the pub
lie to kno that in about one week from
now he will be prepared to set out trees
of all kinds at the lowest prices and short
est notice. lie has on hand large sup
ply of poplar, cypress, cottonwood, oak
and all kinds OF fruit trees, every one OF
which he guarantees. Orders may be lett
at the grocery store of E. W. Thielecke
near the cerner of Eighth street and
Washington avenue, or at his residence

street. 81
We understand his honor Mayor Win
ter has, or will, appoint Mr.. Oberly to at
tend the st. Paul convention on the llth
in place OF some OF the other gentlemen
designated but whose business arrange>
ments prevent them from being present
at the convention. We do not know that
Mr.. Oberly will consent to attend the
convention. but have no doubt he will be
there if appointed by the mayor. Col.
Wood, we believe, is the only one OF the
i've first named who il is certain will at
tend.
-Paupers, tramps and thieves are be-
coming uncomfortably numerous in Thu
locality, and his honor Mayor Winter
and the overseer of the poor, DR.. Wood
are being applied to almost every hour il
| the day tor assistance. As ninety -nint
out of every one hundred OF those askin!
aid are non residents and have no lega
claim to assistance from the authorities
the officers are compelled TO send then
adrift empty handed. Undoubtedly som
OF these people are deserving OF help, bu
the officers cannot discriminate, and ar
compelled to treat all alike-turn then
away. 1t is hard, but it can't be helped
