T shows clearly that tnis mouey bas been di- verted from its legitimate object. It 1s parent that in no instance has the money ra- cewed for these bonds been expended wholly as voted by the peopl 50 fin! that all moneys received by the supcrintendent for damaies 10 property have not bien paid over to the treasurer, but used as an offset for postage and other inci dental expenses. This mode of proceduro has been abandoned undin the fture duplicate receipts will be issued and the into the treasury “I would furthier recommend that a ledger account be kept with all funds, departments, contractors and firms furnishing supplies, cte., and that no payments be made except by warrants drawn and signed as provided L7 law. The comptroller also makes the following recommen 1 bookkeeping: *That there should be kept a record of all claims; a complete double entry ledger and journal; tue using of stub receipt books and issuing of duplicato receipts for all moneys received; the 1ssuini of warrants properly signed for all expenditures in licu of checks of the secretary.” The report was referred committee. The market hoase scheme came up by the presentation of an ordinunces providing for the calling of a special election o vote bonds in the sum of §55,000, W for the purchase of the Kxposition building and $,000 for re- modeling 1t for market bouse purposes. The ordinance was read and laid over until this morning at 10j0’clock, when u special meeting of the council will be hield for the purpose of discussing the matter. If the ordinance passes the proposition will be subwitted with the union depot propositions Novemuer 2 John Rush, eity Lreasurer, was granted a ys leave of absence to attend tho Bal- ntenuial convention. City Treasurer Rush reported that he had been unable to sell $0,500 paving and eurb- ing bonds or'price thau $£1.01, and recommend: he sulo be maoe at that figure or that the bonds be reissuea in larger denominations—they are now $50 and $100 bonds—which would incrense their value in the money markets. Tho matter went 1o the finaace committee. The ommendation of the fire and police eommissioners, that the site of No. 5 enzine house be graded, was referred to the com- mitteo on public'proporty and buildingswith power to act. ‘The street commissioner was ordered to sweep and clean Douglas street from Twentieth to L'wenty-fourth and along with the sudewalk inspector had & winter's work laid ouv for Him, The at ant of Iowler & Beindorf, amounting to $12,075, for preparing plans for the new city hall, was allowed and ordered paid. ‘This amount is 35 per cent of $345,000, the contract price of the building. Contracts were upproved: With E. Calla- han for grading Grove street from Dodge to Davenport; with J. A.

"The appropriation came up and with it the usual kick against an item of §34.45 for “de- tective service,” The city comptroller stated that a portion of the item of expense was for whisky and beer purchased by sa- loon spotters, ~This settled it and the item was stricken ont and referred to the finunce committee.

The assertion may also be made, and forc bly, too, that it has stroug drawing powers. Harry Lacy has been starring 1o the piece for three yesirs, and yesterduy he said: “With oue exception, my partner, Joseph Arthur, and T bave divided a proft every week, That exception was during the presidentinl election, and in Baltimorc.” Mr, Laoy further declared that their busi ness this season has been larger than ever, the greatest increases being noticed in cities where tho piay has been scen before, His statement was fully borne out ut Boyd's fast night by an aulienco that dilled the houso upstaics and dowa until standing room was in demand. Whils this wonderful popularity of *I'ho Still Alarm” seems to be guite remurkable, it is, however, casily accounted for. There is mot another stage attraction befora the public possessed of 80 many strikine fea- tures, each one of which has its peculiar bearing upon story and piot, and as a whole takes such sn intensely interesting grip upon tho attention of the auditors, Thero is the hero flreman, who loves n protty girl, and has to overcome great ob- stacles before he gets her; a ceatral fire station, with an engine, two beautiful white borses, dog and other appuvatus; the usual force of firsmen and all the alarm sounding apparatus belonging to such a place, and last but not least the wvillain. In the engin house sccne wn exhibition of g ting out and going to 8 is given, and @ more reslistic chmax to un act hus never been introduced in any draw- atic production. As Jack Manloy, Mr. Lacy has no trouble in winning the adumira- tion and applause of his wudicnce. He s an oarnest, urtistic and pleasing actor, The supporting company is i good one.
