hear gentlemen on the drainage Of the Union Dam
bed. After few moments quiet ex Judge I'm
derhill opened the ball, saying that as we were to
have no more Union Dam the bed should be pro.
perly drained and put in wholesome condition,
The Judge discussed the question at some length
and quoted the law giving the Council power.
William A, Lynch followed In lengthy argu-
ment in favor of drainage by deepening the main
channel and making side CUTS that the health Of
the city demanded It, and read the law bearing
upon the question.
Mr.. W. K. Miller spoke of the distractions in
the dam bed, and thought by following the pres
ent main channel the cost would not be heavy,
The Council talked Of holding special meeting
some evening but Aually adjourned to the regu.
lar evening.

TIE Tacoma Ledger" says, the sand
stone OF the Wilkeson quarry is of better
quality for general uses than any hereto
fore discovered on the SOnnd. Expert
enced builders and engineers have pro-
nounced ii superior to the best elsewhere
within :lieir knowledge. 1t has been sub
jected to great heat, to test its usefulness
AS hearthstones for iron iurpaces with
favorable results. The walls of the lime
kiln near Alderton are constructed Of It.,
and are found to withstand the great heat
Of that work. AS building material for
houses or foundation walls this rock is IN
valuable. Its color is a light gray.
Though hard it is easily worked, and is
susceptible of fine, beautiful polish. 1t
has also sharp, keen grit, and would
probably be excellent for coarse grind
stones.
