The Board reported that it was lighly important that a sewer be pat in aa isked lor, at once, but that it aad no fnnda with which to do the work. The matter was referred to the Board and Committee on finance jointly, with initrnctions to the latter to scale, if possible, tome of the appropriations made the >ther departments and thus provide for ;his want. The two bodies met last evenng at the office of the Board. Several gentlemen whose names were attached to ;he petition were also present.

The committee had no >ther figures beforo it .except such as Jlerk Lancaster, of tho Board, produced to ; txplain as far as pooaible points raised in ho diacuBflion. Instead of making an jffort to scale down other department apiropriations, an endeavor waa made to Ina some money that had been appro* i mated to the Board and not used, with which tq do tho work. This raised a acket, and for a time it looked as though 1 aothing would be done. Then it waa re* : lolved to have an ordinance drafted seal* ngdown the city's contingent fund, of which about $3,400 iB left, $1,400, and thus provide for the sewer. The Board theu announced that it had 10 money in its contingent fund to do needed cleaning work, and how to proride for this was being discussed when Qlerk Bower* appeared and said that tho Board's contingent fund had about $3,000 lo its credit. The Board, surprised to hear this, said that would suffice to meet its wants for the balance of the year. AMUSEMENT MATTERS. rUo RlnehartB?Fluids' Mlnntrola?Coming Attractions. ?
