BADLY DAMAGED.
THE WORK ON CEMETERY STREET
GIVES WAY.

The rain of Friday showed how imper-
fectly the work on the newly built Nation.
al Cemetery street had been done by the
contractor. The rain of Friday, while
heavy, was not unusual, and from time to
time we have had and will continue to
have just such rainfalls. On Friday the
water rushing from Cemetery and the
square and the cross streets met at the
bridge that spans the branch, and the
wooded outlets being small and insufficient
to carry off the water, the volume of water
crossed both sides of the street and over
flowed the sidewalk. Under the pressure,
the newly filled dirt and rock work gave
way and partially sunk. The outer wall
was pressed out of position fully two feet.
The bad engineering here showed itself or
the specifications were woefully deficient
in necessary requirements, one or the
other. There was no construction of
adequate sewers for the conveyance of the
water from the street to the branch. There
should have been large terra Gotta sewer
pipes on either side of the street and so
arranged as to empty the water into the
branch. This lacking, and the wooden
sewers filling up, the water found its own
escape, destroying portion OF the work as
it went. twill require an expenditure of
a good deal of money to replace the work

the horse and buggy and sold them to Mr..

Capt. Connally, chief of police, was arous-
ed to such an extent that he believed that
the man was selling stolen property, and
he telegrsphed to Mr.. Chuck Anderson, TO
know if a horse and buggy were missing
from Marietta. Mr.. Meinert was informed
and on Thursday he went down to Atlanta
and identified the horse and buggy as his
property, and the man, who had passed off
as Green in Atlanta, as being the party
who hired the turnout from him. The
mans true name, it is said, is Echols, and
he lives near Roswell Junction. He was
held in Atlanta, it being claimed that the
theft took place in Atlanta when he made

Crow ded Quarters.

Considerable complaint is heard over
the cramped quarters at the Police
Station. This is due to the fact that
there have been an unusual number OF
accidents lately, and the lack OF receiv-
ing hospital Of proper accommodations
and appliances, has been the cause of no
small amount of inconvenience. Some
weeks ago the Building Committee Of
the Council was Instructed to have plans
drawn for 're'arrsnging the old City Hail
SO as to give the room formerly
occupied by the City Clerk to the
police and leave more room for receiv-
ing hospital. Since then the committee
has taken no action that has been heard
of, and one half of the old City Hall
stands idle, while the other half is over
crowded. 1t is suspected that the
Building Committee may recover from
its lethargy before the new year is

Prof. r s. C Louie:
DEAR SIR-Respecting your inquiry regarding
the use of the Lowe gss in this church, would
say that early last winter we had our furnace
fitted on. to burn the gas supplied by that com
pany. We found its use marvellous improve
ment over coal Formerly it took about two
hours and half to warm our auditorium to the
point of comfort; after putting in the gas
equally good results could be reached in Mirtl
minutes from the time the burner was lighted
in the furnace. In addition to the rapidity with
which a building of this character can be
warmed the additions of cleanliness al safety
make this gas absolutely the only fuel proper
to be used.
also use one of the Lowe open gas fires in
| my study, which affords cheerful fire, warm
ing and ventilsting the room at the same time
For comfort, convenience and efficiency il
has no equal.
The gas gave such satisfaction as heating
agent, that some time ago 1t was decided to in
| troduce it for lighting as WELL which was done
with the most gratifying results.
We venture to say that we have one of the
most beautifully lighted churches in the coun
try, so much SO that 1t Is universally remarked
and commented upon, and we would certainly
recommend the adoption of this gas by all sim
| ilariy situated with ourselves. 1 am, truly
