The I Joint Hoard transacted business as fol lows: The Mayor, city cngiuccr and strict committee were instructed to purchase, if advisable, 25,000 bricks and 40 bar rels of pitch which the Southern Con struction company had leftover from the paving work.

At midnight last tiigbt there were 250.000 callous of water stored in the reservoir and standpipe. At 5 o'clock this morning this amount had been en tirely used up.

I'ark avenue On the recommendation of the street committee it was decided to pave with lirick that portion of Haywood street from I'atton avenue to West College street, and the strip of street lctwcen the brick and granite paving n the south side of the court house. The first will cost about $SOO and the latter about $485. The Haywood pavinu will Vie similar to that on Church street, while a new wrinkle will be tried on the court tl ace work. There will be no crushed stone foundation simply a bed of sand on ground well rolled, and tnc bricks covered with a coating of pitch. Alderman J. M. Gudscr accmed sur prised at the Hoard's voting to do this work, as he said he had made a similar motion two weeks ago and it had been killed. With a significant wink at the ceilimr Mr. Gudgcr remarked: "Oh, I lavored it, but I haven't forgotten it so soon." He had an animated, good natured discussion on the subject with Advisors Gwyn and Millard when the Joint Board adjourned. Hills were ordered paid as follows: French Broad Lumber Co., $212.03; Webb & Oaten, $1 2.1M-; Corn Trov, $195.1)5; Bunrnmlie Hnck St Tile Co.. $11 1-.75: l- Stikclcather, $10.ft0; street payroll, $;t57.10; W.

Southwick of the Glen Kock, per mission to pay liquor license monthly in advance instead of for six months. Re quest not granted. The Mayor, chairman of the street committee and the city attorney were instructed to confer with Dr. J. A. Bur roughs with a view to compromising with him on the matter of his apical from the report of the jury on the widen ing of North Main street. It was decided to connect the city's sewer on Montford avenue with the sewer laid by the Asheville Loan, Con struction and Improvement company. The "blue laws" were brought up by J. 1). Murphy, esq., representing L. Blom licrg. Mr. Murphy asked that the Sun day closing ordinance be so amended as to allow the sale of newspapers, cigars and cigarettes on the Sabbath. Mr. intr. when tnc consumption would seem to be less than at any time of the day or night. These fiuiircs show that there is exces sive waste of the water that it lias cost thousands to turn into the city, and is another strong argument for the meter system. A few meters have been put in here and the Hoard is well pleased with their working. Alderman Wcstall tells of one liver v stable that put in a meter in preference to paving new rates asiixed by the Board. After a few days' work It was found that the water used would cost the owners of the stable $1.75 a day if the usual rate of consumption was kept up. The meter rate fixed lv the Hoard is 25 cents a thousand gallons. Where consumers prefer, the authorities place a meter in the building and make charges only by the registry ol the machine. ncll's left arm was paralyzed The dwelling was fired by the lightning and Purncll with difficulty was rescued unconscious.
