At the meeting of the city council last evening the greater portion of the session was devoted to consider ation of construction work that Is now In view. The question of sewer ex tension, new Main street bridge and the Round-up grounds came in for discussion.

However, City Attorney Raley has been given in structions upon this subject and the matter will come before the council at its next meeting. Sewer Extension.

He says that the sewer pipe may now be had about five per cent cheaper than it could have been pur chased when the city formerly figur ed upon the extension. Main Street Bridge. City Engineer Geary Kimbrell sub mitted a tentative plan for the new Main street bridge last evening and the plan was referred to the street committee for consideration.

In this way he figures that a fair deal would be given all bidders. The recommen dation seems to be taken favorably by the mayor and councllmen. Roiind-np Grounds Accepted. By resolution the city accepted the title to the Round-up grounds last evening. However the resolution pro vides that In the event the $4000 mortgage now outstanding against the title is not paid, by the Round-up as sociation the city may cancel a lease which is given the Round-up people. This lease is given for a period of ten years for a nominal considera tion of $1. Bills for the past months were paid last evening and other routine busi ness transacted.
