City Council.

The city council at its meeting on Tues
day evening did large amount of business,
much more than usually done. The most
important matters acted upon in addition to
the report in yesterday mornings GLOBE
were: The roller skating rink ordinance,
making the license $50 in place of $3.50, was
passed. Williams street was ordered graded
from Myrtle to Mulberry, Greeley street
from Myrtle to Ramsey and Walnut street
from Broadway to Second. The engineer
estimated the cost of the Improvements at
1886. 40, SCI and $496. 65 respectively. Rob-
ert Malloy failing in signing his contract for
grading Churchill street, it was awarded to
lowest bidder A peddlers' ordinance was
introduced, but was laid over till next meet
ing as was also the levee ordinance. The fire
limits ordinance was laid over, as it did not
coincide with the instructions passed by the
city council month ago. The printing
committee reported that they could have 100
copies of the city charter printed for 1886,
and $35 extra with marginal notes, and if
the printers here would do it at the same
price they should have the preference. They
also reported that the city charter and ordi-
nances could be revised for 500. The
street committee, city attorney and Mayor
Murdoch were appointed a committee to
settle the dispute relative to the opening of
Myrtle street through part of the property
claimed by Mrs. McKusick and John Gard
ner. The drinking fountains were ordered
to be put in, and H. II. Harrison, superin-
tendent of the water works, was awarded
the contract for laying the pipes, he fur
nishing all material at IS cents per lineal
foot. Bids will be received at next meeting
for the building of all sidewalks ordered
constructed. The following bids were re-
ceived fol the position of bridge tender:
John Kinney 81, 800. John McLeer $1,000,
William Seikes $1,000 and Joseph r. CARL
SLABS. No action was taken, but they
will be considered at a special meeting next
Tuesday evening, as the new tender takes
office June IS, at p. m. The council adj
journed until next Tuesday evening.

Hessian Fly in Missouri.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, June 3.-In reply to an
inquiry regarding the alleged ravages Of the
Hessian fly in Missouri, MIR. j. w. Sanborn,
secretary of the state board of agriculture,
furnishes the following statement: Hun
dreds of reports have come to me within
the past few days and are now coming in,
but only two correspondents, one each from
st. Louis and ST. Charles county, mention
the Hessian fly. If there are any ravages
they must be of later date than mail reports.
Only few cases Of grasshOppers or of To-
Gusts are named. don't think insects are
very troublesome. ~
Who of us are without our troubles, be
they small or large? The blessings of health
are best appreciated when we are sick and
in pain. A hacking cough, a severe cold OF
any throat or lung diseases are very trouble
some; but all these may be quickly and
permanently cured by DR.. Bigelow's Posi-
tive Cure. Safe and pleasant for children.

The city council will it is said, shortly
be asked to give its consent or disapproval
to the erection of row of wooden build
ings the entire length of the Seventh street
fill. A few weeks ago permits for the work
would have been given, but since that time
the residents of DaytOn's bluff have petit
toned to have the fire limits extended to
Bates avenue, and this practically prevents
the erection of wooden buildings at that
point. The gentleman proposing to erect
the buildings is John Waggoner, the
owner of the land fronting on the fill. He
proposes, if allowed, to put up number of
neat houses, costing about $1,000 each.
The benefit from having row of buildings
will be a protection to the street. On the
other hand, the citizens of that part of the
city are anxious to have all buildings. here
after put up erected Of brick. Besides,
they claim that the fill is visible from all
sections of the city. At present it is fair
to look upon, but, with a row of buildings
placed along, it will be deprived OF what
little beauty it NOW possesses.

STREET SAYINGS.

A little incident which excited the risi-
bility of the spectators occurred in the mu-
nicipal court room on Tuesday. 1t was
Judge Cory's first morning on the bench.
and among the first batch of prisoners was
Margaret Bradley, a rather celebrated indi-
vidual, who had been arrested for drunk
enness and disorderly conduct. After hear
ing the case the judge imposed sentence
of ninety days in the workhouse. AS Mar
garet slowly retired to her seat she turned
partly around and with an awkward cour-
tesy remarked: well, begorra, jedge, yer

Speaking of the need of meat inspector
one of the aldermen said yesterday: 81
think at the next meeting of the council
will move to create such an Office. At
present we have an inspector at the trans
fer who carefully looks after the meat
brought into the city. But that is not suf-
ficient. We want a man whose special
duty will be to drop into every place where
meat is sold, once day, or at whatever
time he chooses, and examine the meat
offered for sale. Of course when it is
brought in at first the meat is all right. but
no person knows how long it hangs in the
stalls before it is used. 1t may be kept a

Few persons in Minnesota, or the North
west even, have any conception of the i'm
mense business done here in ginseng and in
seneca root, and still fewer know how the
business in seneca root commenced. This
latter trade grew out of the desire of
Messrs. Noyes Bros & Cutler, in a time of
great distress among the White Earth In
dians, TO aid the missionaries there in util-
izing. whatever these Indians could furnish
to help in their support. From this grew
this large business, and the first seneca root
sent out of Minnesota for Eastern and for
eign markets was thus gathered.
