SHEPP'S REPORT. It Was The Interesting Part of the Council Meeting. Many Recommendations Made by Him. — A Stack of Bills and a Little Other Business. Mayor Cromer bustled into the little court room last night immediately after arriving from the windy city, Chicago. He still had some lake breeze and zero weather in his pockets which he emptied out to the council chamber. He had heard that Muncie's council had not met for three weeks, and when he looked around he found only six members present. Lenon is in Atlanta, Lyman is sick, Porter is in Alexandria, Haymond is away on business and Gray has been sick for several weeks. At 7:30 o’clock those present decided that it would again be impossible to transact any business when Gray hobbled into the room, wrapped in a couple of overcoats and half a dozen mufflers, and there was then a quorum present. Clerk Elrod read the minutes of the meeting held over a month ago and were approved by the council. PETITIONS. Joseph Hinton was granted until May 1st to complete his sidewalk on North High street.
