Snyder was allowed $200 on his account for grading Hill street.

A bill of $1,500 on culvert building account by the National Bridge Co.,was referred to a committee. 

The board of public works were instructed to clean the pavement on Ann street, and to fix a culvert on Liberty Street. 

Ald. Douglas, Schlenker, Coon and City Attorney Sawyer were appointed a committee to present the bill of the city for paving Ann street to the Board of Supervisors. The city decided itself to pay 20 per cent of the cost of the paving, all the cost of the street intersection and the cost of the storm sewer.

On motion of Ald. Fischer the D., Y., A. A. & J. were instructed to blanket their headlights while passing through the city so that they would not scare horses.
