City Council approves budget hikes and charter work
City council meeting notes show Crook & Walton seeking a 256 dollar interior bid increase for city hall work due to higher material costs. A 2 percent commission to the city engineer on the contract was approved once interior work begins, with a three member audit committee to review past accounts. A 90 day contract extension for interior work was granted, and charter revision costs were itemized. The Hackstrom addition was accepted, an ordinance on weed control drafted, and saloon hours amended to stay open until 1 am. Dr McChesney was granted bicycle sidewalk access with a prior ordinance existing.

Charley Moore Leading Local Ball Club Beats Brewers at Hill's Park
In front of about 100 fans, Charley Moore and the locals edged the Brewers in a spirited baseball game at Hill's Ball Park last Sunday afternoon. Moore delivered a three bagger with two runners on in the sixth, while the Brewers answered with two runs in the seventh and three more by the eighth. Moore starred behind the plate, Parker and Pellew were absent, and the St Johns Boosters under Harry Hunter filled the stands with songs. The park’s improvements and sun protection drew praise, and Rankin umpired several tight calls to general satisfaction.
