A Lunatic's Freak.

CRAZED BY THE DEATH OF HIS BErROTHED. 4
UTICA YOUTH DIGS HIS GRAVE AND SLEEPS
A very romantic and sad case has come
under the observation Of reporter of the

neat, tidy and temperate in his habits, and a

the regular army, and this young man so per-
fected himself in his studies that he easily

O, Now all the young mans habits are changed
Shortly after the death OF his betrothed he

but his employers noted that at ali times he
appeared sad and melancholy. When the
ton he returned to Utica, but would not re-
main at the home of his friends. He drank
steadily, keeping inebriated the majority Of
the time, but disturbed no one. This has been
his career for four or five years.
This summer his case has taken new turn
NO one could discover where he slept at night
or obtained his meals in the daytime. The an
tidy condition of his clothes led some of his
friends to believe that he found rest in barn
or out OF doors: Recently it has Deen dis
spot in Silver Spring Glen. The other day par
ties wandering in the glen heard singing and
upon quietly investigating, found tie Young
man sitting by the side OF the grave upon
rude box, apparently Indifferent to ali sur.
roundlngs. Hymns were sung and prayers
were SAID attentlveiy, accompanied by sObs
and tears. A second visit to the place when
me young man was absent disclosed the fact
mat the DOx used as a seat was of matched

pass and repass him at frequent intervals but

LF-TTERS FROM THE People
Another Sewer Relief Plan

Editor Star:-A. great deal has been id
and many suggestions made relative to re-
feying the low part of the city from the effects
Of floods. Allow me. through your columns
to make another suggestion, which, think,
win relieve the section of the city now empty
ing its drainage into the B street sewer. Ny
plan is to construct sewer commencing at
10th street, about so feet south of the present
b street sewer, running parallel with it of the
same size and same level of the present sewer,
to 18th street, connecting with the street
sewer at 10th, llth, 18th, 18th and 18th streets,
directly opposite the mouths of the lateral
sewers running down these sire ts the con
nections of the same capacity, the connections
to be Constructed at an angle of about 50 de-
grees, inclining in sOuthwesterly course from
the old to the new sewer. At nth street let
the new sewer be continued SOuthWasterly
direction through the natural ravine across
the monument lot, between the monument and
the lot to be used for the new printing aud en-
craving bureau, to the river channel. This plan,
am satisfied, will accommodate the floods bet
ter than the intercegting sewer proposed
down street, across the White Lot as the
water now emptying into the street sewer
comes with such force and in such quantities,
that each stream forms dam to prevent the
flow through the large sewer, and occasions
the overflow through the man-holes.
