The aldermen have adopted an ordi nance governing the paving of side walks which stipulates that tbe city shall, after giving a property owner ten days' notice, proceed lo pave tne sidewalk and charge the property owner with the actual cost. The work is to be done under the direction of the street commission. After notiee to nave has been served on a property owner he cannot pave the property himself, but will have to allow it to be done by the city. He can pave it him self, however, before notice has been served. It is thought that, by securing a competent man to have charge of the work, it can be done cheaper than by contract.
