"The trouble with that outrageous nui-
sance, the Albright creek" said leading
citizen Of the southern suberb, lis that the
lead sewer from one of the packing houses
connecting with the main sewer and tunnel,
has fallen in or become clogged since the
last inspection, and now all of the
stencil arising therefrom, polutes the
little stream and the whole neighborhood.
The sluggish stream has all the offensive
features of a sewer, and all the death breed
ing elements of rotten vegetables and animal
matter. The council should attend to it at
once. My opinion is that an inspection will
OBJECT its remedy in half a day, and it should
be done TO svert the dangers of an epidemic
this summer.
