BOARD OF PUBLIC IMPROVEMENTS FAILS
TO COMPLY WITH THE LEG1S-
LATURE'S MANDATE.

At the meeting Of the Board OF Public Improve
ments yesterday resolution was adopted TO re-
duce the assessment for the establishment OF a
public place at Morris-ave. and East One-hundred-
and-forty-second-st so that two-thirds OF the
expense should be borne by the property holders
and one-third by the city. The Legislature some
time ago passed a bill do away with the pres
ent Newtown Creek nuisance by building sewer
TO empty into the East River at Huron-st
After hearing the arguments of taxpayers. sew
eral of the Commissioners took the ground that
the only question open debate was whether
the expense of building the sewer should be borne
by the city by the property holders. Not
withstanding when the question of authorizing the
building of the put to vote 1T was
lost. When Mr. Shea realized that the resoiu-
ton was lost he said:
am surprised at the action taken by the Board
in this matter. You are fine lot of Democrats.

SWIPED BEER AND JAM.
Small Hoodlums Loot a West Side
Cellar.

The instincts of stealing are as fully
developed in the little hoodlums of Butte
as they are in the weasel, and the hill
dren w'ho have made petty thieving a
practice are not much larger than the
little animal mentioned.
Yesterday a resident of the west side
discovered on entering his cellar that a
case of beer recently placed there was
empty of bottles. Several pots of jam
and preserves We're also missing. Look
ing around he found no signs of the en-
rance of a grown person and concluded
that the plumber must ave been taken
through a ventilator window, which is
just Sx20 1-2 inches. Half a ton of coal
went through the same narrow aper-
ture. One little tot must have worked
below and she other above was handed
the swag. The robbery was o in broad
daylight.
There is one man on the west side, at
least. who believes that Judge Sullivan's
remarks on the need of a truant officer,
published in the Inter Mountain. We're to
the point.
