These lessons we are learning from the

There was very important session
Of the Council Committee on Real Es-

which there was general review of
the work of renovation and improve
ment which has been In progress for
the past month, recommendations to
pay a large number OF bills for labor.
performed and material furnished, and
some small additional contracts were
let. In fifteen days the City Hall will
present a better appearance than for
years past.
The bills recommended aggregated
$1,17S.53, most of that large amount
being for the painting contracts in
and out of the building. This work
has been completed. The outside of the
building was painted in conjunction
with the county, the city paying one
half the bill, but the interior work, as
matter of course, was wholly borne
by the city. AS nearly always hap
pens in work of this magnitude, sew
eral things were overlooked. and last
evening bids were opened and contracts
awarded for painting and varnlSnlng
the upper corridor, office of the Health
officer and the Paxton fountain, the
work being awarded to James Nc
Adams, he being the lowest OF the
three bidders making tenders. The
contract for repairing about fifty chairs
was let to Mr.. Zimmerman. 1t was de-
cided that a flag 12x20 feet was about
the thing wanted, and this will be sup
piled, in accordance with the recent
resolution of Council. The matter of
supplying street signs, for which Coun-
ell appropriated $500 last spring. was
discussed for short time. but the
contractors communicated with up to
this time do not appear to exactly UNI
derstand what the city wants. and
some further conferences and explana-
tions must be had.
