He thinks if he'd take a cealliope out there he never would have to work again, ‘Just start her to goin’ and e in the shekels the rest of your SEWERAGE REPORT. (Continued from second yage.) must now, after careful thought, say that I believe that the expense in- curred for any pumping device;would be useless, 80 far as accomplishing practical fesults, Any unpleasant effects caused by the flooding of the sewers by high water, could . be obv ated by the proper location and con- struction of the plumbing fixtures No fixture should be allowed inside a dwelling house, which could not be placed above overflow. In such a waste of water the escape of the sew- age, unless confined, . would not be even noticeable, and certainly not unsanilary. If in order to prevent the entrance of the overflow water, the yard closets should be elevated, they nould be exposed to freezing and breaking during every cold spell, You will find that if the proper care is exercised inside of houses, that the overflow of yard fixtures would amount to very little, and that the service of the sewers on ccount of the increased number of fixtures, would de mach more satis- factory. The following plan for a system will, I hope, meet your sewer ap- main sewer, which will be a twenty-four inch pipe, will start at Ninth street and be laid east on Court street to Fourth street, north Fourth street to Trimble street, and thence by the shortest rovte to the Ohio river.

As a sufficient water supply is nec- g is a close approxi« essary to the successful working of a system of sewers, an ordinance should be passed making connection with the sewers compulsory.
