I_
As was u3ual when Mayor Mollet
calls the council to order at each
regular meeting all the city fathers
were in their places last night read)
to attend to the city’s business. Aftet
tne minutes of the previous meeting
had been read and approved City At
orney O’Neil called the attention of
the councllmen to a number of nrnt
.era which he thought should be taken
ip> all of which will be given «iu
orulderatlon.
Councilman Wesley reported tha.
i ogress is being made by Contractor
tiling in the building of cells In th
lusement of the flro house and tha.
hey will soon be ready for occu
sney should the need arise.
Councilman Poteet reported that
'ather Post had paid a young man
o climb the steeple of the Cutholk
ourch und fix the three lights which
ad failed to glow for some nlght3.
Potent also stated that the fund in
. ather Post’s hands to maintain the
lights was now almost depleted.
About twenty dollars more are re
quired to keep them going through
the winter Marshul Jordan was re
ported to have said he would con
tribute half of this sum and Poteel
thought that other citizens would con
tribute the balance The matter was
left In his hands to fix up In some
way.
The bill of $75 for 15 days’ care of
] th. latent daughter of the late Mrs.
i
j Pavison which was presented by the
! nurse aroused considerable discussion
| during which City Health Officer
Chace and Councilman Itoss explain
ed how the arrangements were made.
’ (>ther members and Attorney O’Nell
'called attention to the fact that
Judge Tucker was reported to have
i made arrangements with the same
; nurse to oare for the lnfimt anti two
j other of the Davison chUdron for $80
r. month, to be paid out of the indl
' gent fund. The matter was left for
urther Investigation and considera
tion.
The unpaid bill for (auditing the

1 many months ago by C. H. Mllot,
i was brought up by Muyor Moller un
| Jer the head of new business The

^ layor Blake refused to sign It. At
subsequent meeting a warrant for
I $300 was ordered drawn in Milot’s

Councilman Ro3e stated that two
! \pc fenced mtihaiiician a id told
!rm that the shaft jf the engine In
i the l.re house was liable to snap off
j and put the whole plant out ^f com
mission because of the vibration which
occurred when the engine was run
ning and that twenty or thirty dollar3
spent now' to fix it might save a lot
o* later expense. Some of the mem
bers questioned the value of the ex
pert’s Judgment In this matter and

A few 'bills which had been ap
