Paving and Sidewalks,
The meeting of Council, Tuesday eve
ning, ww well attended—the opening of
bids always brings a crowd.
The regular order of business was
suspended, aud the bids for the paving of
West Pearl St. from Mai a to Bluff, a dis
tance of 1103}ds feet, 24 feet wide, were
opened, and read.
They run as follows.
John Osborne, paving per square yard
$1.90, curbing per lineal foot GO cents,
estemated total $7,373.
John W. Ekas, paving $1.93, curbing CO
cents, total $7,468.
B. McPoland. paving $1.99, curbing CI
cents, total $7,G82.
Houston Bros., paving $1.94, curbing
64i cents, total $7,601.
A. C. Wilson, paving $1.97, curbing 63
cents, total $7,063.
Chas. McCarthy, pacing $2.06, curbing
63 cents, total $7,948.
The Engineer and Committee reported
that John Osborne was the lowest bidder
and on motion the contract was awarded
to him. The cost per foot front to the
property owners will be in the neighbor
hood of $2.
Mr. Stamm of the Sidewalks Committee
reported that he had seen fit to interfere
with the proposed building of a sidewalk
on South Main street two feet above grade,
and asked for the sense of the Council on
the sidewalk question. A general talk on
the grades of sidewalks followed, and
several cases were mentioned, and the
Council does not appear to have experienc
ed any change of heart in the matter, but
so much favoritism has been Bhown that
the town will probably go into winter
quarters again with some of the sidewalks
of its pavea streets in bad shape. How
ever, a few more were ordered to be adver
tised.
Mr. Doyle was present and wanted SSOO
on account; the Secretary read a letter
from Mr. Long, his former partner, not to
pay Mr. Doyle any more money;
Mr. Doyle said they had dissolved
partnership, but that he was to settle all
the business, and the Council decided to
give him his SSOO, provided he signed a
paper to be drawn up by the Solicitor.
Ex-collector McAboy way exonerated of
$627.25, taxes of 1890, and Burgess Mc-
Aboy reported the collection of licenses
for July amounting to $16.00. The town
has been remarkably good lately, and he
had no fines to impose.
The Sewer Committee reported that it
had selected Mr. Joseph Pickner of Spring
dale, as a competent man to look after the
sewers, and agreed to pay him $45.00 a
month.
Mr. Hughes was paid SIOO for a flush
tank; the grading at the U. P. Church is to
be done by contract; some assignments
were referred to the Paving Committee
and Treasury, the Hose Company appro
priations were referred to the Fire Com
mltte; tbe usual monthly assortment of
bills were passed, and the Council adjoured
till August 15.
The bills aggregated SI7OO, and the
largest were for labor on streets $356.00,
water $363., electric lights 45 'Si $7.50,
$337.50, and a hardware and sewerpipe bill
or $248.

for his treatment, and in a few hours the
boy was taken home and the evidences
were Wednesday, that he would soon be
all right.
Youngstown, Ohio, hasa "kid ordinance '
that is tairly well enforced. It requires all
boys under 12 years of age to keep off the
streets after 9 o'clock P. M.. unless by
special permission or accompanied by an
older person who is responsible.
Xear Greenville, Alfred Hoffman, a boy
aged 15 years, was struck by lightning
while standing in the door of a barn and
instantantly killod. Within three weeks
three Mercer county boys have been killed
by lightning.
During a thunder storm last week, the
house of Joseph Craig, about four miles
north of Mercer, on the Leadville pike,
was struck by lightning, and together
with the contents was consumed. Mrs.
Graig and family were visiting in Evans
City, Butler county, and Mr. Craig was
alone in the house, having retired for the
night. When the neighbors gained access
to the burning house they found Mr. Craig
in bed, apparantly asleep, and it was with
great difficulty that they succeded in
arousing him. Yfhen they finally succeeded
he complained of a sickness at the stomach,
but no other evidences of injury were ap
parant.
The conciwaion of a charge of dynamite,
exploded in a '-hole" in the Shenango,
lately, was so great as to throw nearly all
the water out of it, and lay bare the bottom.
A canoe load of good sized fish were picked
np, and it is estimated by an informant,
who was a spectator, having been attjacted
by the explosion, that not less than a bush
el of small fish were destroyed by the
charge. This kind ot fishing is not even
honorable and the perpetrators deserve to
take a term making barrels at the work
house. Such wholesale vandalism should
not be countenanced by even ordinary
villians. let alone decent people. Wheth
er an information will be made is doubtlul,
as retaliation is feared.
At Beaver Falls Wednesday,a man nam
ed Jno. Wolf was killed by a restaurant
keeper named French; the tragedy happen
ing on a part of the street where, during
tho past few years, ten persons have been
shot, three killed, and seven others cut
with knives and razors.
