THE CITY DADS DO MUCH BUSINESS.
Special Committees Appointed to Look After Fran
Much Other Business Transacted.

The city council met in regular ses-
sion last night, with Mayor Bowers
presiding, and all aldermen present
except Alderman Adam Cone.
Minutes of the last meeting were
read and approved.
A petition was read from citizens on
Royal and Dallas streets, asking for a
street light at the intersection of these
streets; referred to the light and water
committee.
A petition from w. E. Swift asking
for permission to place at intervals on
the main business streets, and at the
ends of intersecting alleys, trash cans,
with privilege of using outside of same
for biIl-posting, was granted.
A communication from citizens was
read asking that the recently passed
ordinance regulating CESS pools and
privy vaults be enforced. No proof
that ordinance was being violated, and
in absence of affidavit to that effect,
communication was tabled.
A communication WIS read from the
First National Bank, calling attention
to the fact that six Avenue A bonds,
OF $50 each, with accrued interest for
several years, had been forwarded to
that institution for collection. These
bonds were called in several years ago,
and these six we're reported missing.
1t was supposed that they had been
lost. Aldermen Cement and Grant
we're appointed committee to inves-
tigate, and report at the next meeting.
1t is more than likely parties owning
these bonds will have to fight their
claim through the courts, as these
bonds were advertised for years ago,
and we're dismissed as lost.
A petition from T. 8. Parker, reel
dence on Queen street, again called
attention to damage being done his
property, because of manner of worn
ing the street in front OF his hUus}
precipitated heated discussion. The
council finally voted TO remedy the
matter by authorizing the street super
visor to put in 30-inch drain pipe in
front of said premises.
A Mr.. Cole of Queen street was
present and asked permission to adj
dress the council, calling attention to
large drain ditch that went through
his premises. After hearing the gen.
tleman the matter was referred to the
proper committee for investigation.
The vote on the school bond ques
lion was received, the presiding OFF,
GERS dismissed, vote canvassed, and
the result declared.
An ordinance granting ]. V. Wat
kins and associates a franchise to
build, maintain and operate a system
of street cars, was read. Offer was
made to put up bonus of $1,000 to be-
gin work in certain time after fran
