The bill was for about $30. D. L. Rood, after considerable de bate, was ordered a rebate of about $121 on Second street, he having built a concrete sidewalk Instead of the plank walk that was ordered. He did the work personally but had paid the assessment for the plank walk. Chestnut street grading was ac cepted from Contractor Flanagan.

Bennett, who . has been in Lane's hospital in San Francisco for provement, over which W. U. Dou glas and the council clashed a few weeks ago, was up again last night.
