ASK FOR TRUNK SEWER AS DRAIN TO PIGGERY Colored Citizens Inspect Sanitary | Conditions on Stickfoot Branch, | Near St. Elizabeth’s Hospital. Need of a trunk sewer from Stanton | and Sheridan roads to Nichols avenu southeast was stressed yesterday b colored members of the citizens' legis lative advisory council, who inspected Stickfoot Branch and a ravine which | empties into it from a piggery at the Government Hospital for the Insane. Dr. George H. Richardson and George T. Beason, council members, were taken over the territory by C. E. How- | ard and Rev. C. B. Ashton of the Hills- dale Civic Association, which with the | Garfleld Civic Association instituted | the tour of inspection. Apparently stagnant water wa: found at points along the branch, esp cially at its junction with the pigger ravine. The inspector decided, how ever, that removal of the piggery was | ot desired so much as construction of | the trunk sewer to carry | Branch from where the piggery empties into it down to Nichols. ave- | nue, where a trunk sewer begins at once and 3 be Tawrin put 0 fratcl manure for eale ;0 Shicee.
