The Council Committee on Finance
met last evening with seven members
present, and in addition Mayor Butts,
President Chew, Receiver Forgey, City
Engineer White and General T. S.
Riley who appeared ON behalf of the
city in the Paige, Carey & Co. litiga-
ton. City Clerk Watkins was absent.
ill.
Business was commenced by asking
Mr.. Riley for any statement he had to
make, and in reply he made a state
ment of the Paige, Carey & Co. troubles
commencing with the failure Of the
company before the completion of the
stone bridge, the city finishing the
work. 1t was then ascertained that
there was the sum of $11, ASSOC due
Paige, Carey & Co. This money was
attached by creditors, and the city filed
a bill, making about seventy-five par
ties defendants, including the Goshorn
estate. The defendants set up the
claim that the city really owed ST.
322.60, and much testimony was taken
on this point, and there was a finding
for the city. Other collateral points
involved and the findings of the COM
missioner of the Court upon them, were
recited, including the statement that
the city was bound in interest, and the
only way to have avoided that would
have bean to pay over the money, pend
ing adjustment of the claims. Many
liens, however, were claimed, and have
Just been ascertained, and there was
a question as to whether the city was
liable until these liens had been adju-
Dictated. MIR. Riley thought the city
ought to pay into Court 81, 4SS.09, and
let the remainder rest, pending further
proceedings The commissioners re-
port showed the city to be indebted
in a principal sum of $12,971.20, with
$500 10 of interest. He submitted a
summary of the commissioners report,
showing the figures in detail. VI
course, he said, the creditors insisted
on the liability for SIT ,322.60, exclusive
of interest, but he felt the city should
pay in the amount not in dispute
$11,4SSO9. Mr.. Riley added that the
matter was still in the hands of the
commissioner, and might be there held
for time. The city would have to act
soon, but not Immediately. He i'm
pressed upon the Committee, however,
that as soon as anything was paid into
Court, interest ceased upon the sum-
There was a general discussion upon
Mr. Riley's statement, and 1t was con-
Guided that the money must be raised
in some manner.
The Committee then passed to other
matters, and took up the estimated re-
ceip.s of the city for the coming year,

CELEBRATED PIECE OF

In "The Annals Of the War,
published in the weekly edition OF
the Times some years ago, the
question arose: Whnt had become
Of the bullet which slew Stonewall
Jackson? The question was
presented by the visit Of a
man to the Times Office with a
bullet which he wished to sell to
its editor upon the ground that it
was the identical bullet. The
weekly edition Of the Times had an
extensive circulation at the time
with those who were interested in
and wno we're writing their person
al experience or observation Of the
events Of the war in its columns,
and il WAS an emInently suitable
way to reach the truth on any
mooted point to publish It III its
columns. This was done, and
elicIted an immediate and author

was never found Nearly every

A TEMPERANCE LECTURE.
As example of what it costs

As example of what it costs tc
tipple, the following unique adver
tIsement of a st. Louis grocer is
given:
Notice is hereby given that il
you will come to my store three
times day during the next year,
and buy drink Of whiskey each
time paying 10 cents drink, at
the end of the year will donate
to YOU five barrels Of best flour,
100 pounds Of rice, ice pounds Of
granuIaled sGgar, 10 pounds OF
coilee, 10 gallons of syrup, 80 yards
Of calico. th1te pounds of tea, one
Sl0 80 cloak for your wife. aud $50
for the liquor you dlank.'
Thirty cents a day for sos days
would equal Sl09 50. The cost of
the goods and money donated TO
the purchaser Of the liquor would
amount in rDuud numbers to Sj5
aud the cost of the liquor con.
sumed about $50, so the grocer
would be safe, and, in fact. realize
a small profit on the transaction.
