A Hint to the Health on,cer,

If the owners Of the vacant squares were
compelled to drain the same by connections
with the sewers, as Is required in all places
north of this, 1t would greatly improve the
sanitary condition of our city. As 1t is, there
are many squares flooded by every rain storm
aud the water, having no outlet, is left to stag
nate and engender malaria. The three squares
bounded by Thirteenth aud Sixteenth streets
and T and streets northwest illustrate the
necessity VI immediate action.
