As Tin: Li:aii:ii predicted the city
of (iuthrie is once more the defendunt
In 11 suit for damages.
Yesterday .lames Urc'en through his
attorneys Keaton and Turner entered
suit in the district court against the
city and prays damages in the sum of
9i:il().
The suit is the direct result of Im-
proper drainage. We have no so.ver-
age system ami without this proper
drainage annot be secured.
In his petition the pla'ntift alleges
that his house was comparatively new
and erected at a cost of 51100. That
by nn overllow of water from an open
diteli in front mid residence was
damaged and rendered almost unfit
for habitation.
(rceu's attorneys claim they have
a strong case and intend to push it to
tlio biUer end
Charles Smith proprietor of the
Knglisli Kitchen is also preparing to
bring suit against the city for dam-
ages sustained by un overllow of
water.
In the light of those suits it seems
the city salons would move themselves
and cause the building of u first-class
sewerage system.

ate oysters on tho half-shell in the
same lunch house. There's nothing
singular in that only tho young lady
didn't have to write the names on tho
shells again. Now the questions are
were the shells washed'.' and are the
same shells used for every oyster
partv?
"I tell you this sewerage matter
should be pushed and expeditiously
too. This is a large town; we have no
drainage no sewerage system what-
ever and if some sanitary measures
are not taken before next summer
there will be no end of sickness in the
city." Thus spoke a leading physician
a few days ago. "It won't do to dally
with these questions longer; our health
depend upon it; it is a matter of life
and death. Without drainage no city
can be free of sickness."

A fow days since a skit was printed
in this column regarding a parlor oc-
currence on Noble avenue. It refer-
red to a coy house which sits near the
sidewalk and a young man and lady;
silhouettes on the wull played a part
in tli0jttory which told of a young
man's rythmatleal lovemaktng in full
hearing of passorsby. Since the pub-
lication of tho story It appears that
there are a number of co.y houses
which sit near the sidewalk on Noble
avenue and fuither that more than
one young couple experiences the
Jiangs of love mi that thoroughfare.
Yesterday a matron of florid com-
plex! jn and a detirledly Celtic accent to
her volee tailed at Tut: Lkadkii otllce.
uud unteied a general denial of the
story if it referred tohcr duughter.
She also said that her future son-in-law
didn't make love in ry Mimes and
that silhouettes weren't kept in her
house. TjiiiI.kauku hastens to set the

About two weoks ago two young
couples partook of oysters on the half-
shell in a Second street lunch house.
After devouring tho oysters one of the
young ludies with nothing else to do
borrowed her oscort's pencil nnd wrote
