To Our City Subscribers.

We shall esteem it a favor if all our city sub
soribers who receive their papers by carrier, will
report esery delinquency at the Office. Il the
paper is missed or is late we desire to know it.,
that we may apply the remedy. With rare ex-
ceptions the carriers can have their papers de-
livered by half-past six. Where they are later
than that, subscribers should report at the
GLOBE Office. We have reason to believe that
there has been systematic purloining of the
GLOBE from subscribers, and if failures to re-
oeive it are reported it will enable US to detect
and punish the guilty parties.

fare.
Mr.. Timme advocated the l5.foot alley, and
stated that the usual width of alleys was 16 tc
20 feet. After considerable debate the matte,
was referred to Dir. Timme to report.

removed to conform with the line of the street
and report.
REGULAR BUSINESS.
The clerk brought up the matter of making
assessment for grading Wilius street from
Fourth to Seventh streets, laid over from last
week.
Mr. Timme opposed the assessment, believ
ing that the ''surfacng'' should be charged all
along the line instead Of against the property
owners, in front of whose property tho surfac
ing was done.
Mr.. Becker favored the assessment being
placed upon the property directly benefited.
Mr.. Rice took a similar view, but after q
lengthy debate, participated in by all of the
board and Engineer Sewall, it was decided to
reassess the property and apply it to the whole
street,
JACKSON STREET PAVEMENT.
s. Hurter, by Mr.. Becker, submitted pro-
sest against the assessment for paving on Jack.
son street. He was assessed for twenty-five
feet, and had twenty-four and half feet.
Communication placed on file.
The same was represented to be the case In
". F. Davidson's assessment. He was charged
with $50 feet, and he had las feet.
MI. Rice stated the assessment was made ac.
cording to plat. and parties could find relief
only through the council.

notice in the assessment for paving jackson
street.

Robert street, from Seventh to the river, con-
frmed, and usual notice ordered; also in the

to Maria avenue.
The clerk directed to give the first as
sessment notice for the opening widening and
extending of Bluff street from Martin to Rob
ert streets
The clerk reported that lots 25 and l6 of Ir-
vines outlots, had been assessed $40 too much
for the grading of Bedford street. The same
was ordered to be corrected.
The clerk was directed to give the first assess
ment notice Of change of grades on various

The boom Working.

Tho boom committee failed to meet promptly
at 10 o'clock yesterday, only one out of eight
reporting. Col. Prince, however. had scooped
Eve shares before 10 o'olock, two Of which were
from Geo. Benz and F. J. Hoffman, who walked
in like men voluntarily, and put down their
names-an example which we commend to
others equally interested. Col. Prince having
to attend business meeting then, Mr.. McClung
was left alone, but started out on the war-path.
and by the aid of Mr.. Hodgson, who volunteered
to fill the places of the six atsentees, procured
six more shares by noon. making ST., 100 for two
hours work, and raising the sum to 54,100,
with $1,000 in sight to-day, if the com mittee
will put in two hours work this morning.
They are requested to be promptly at the
office of James Smith, Jr., who has promised
to help the committee to-day.
MIR. McClung went to Minneapolis in the
afternoon to see to the work up there and re-
ports everything working well.
The intention is to organize next week, and
go to work on the boom the week after.
