THE DRAINAGE QUESTION.

A Special Council Committee on
House Drainage to be Appointed.
The new city council is taking up the
work of the old council with a good deal of
earnestness. The drainage question, which
is one of the most important that will come
before the present board, is being fully dis
cussed.
At present the house drainage system is
under the arge of the committee on streets
and lanes. 1t is probable, how ever, that a
special committee on house drainage will
be appointed, to consist Of the present com
mlttee on drainage and two other members,
probably one fro u the committee on water
and one from the health and cemetery COM
mttee.
The chief obstacle in the way of an
early commencement of the work of
h use drainage by the adoption Of
Guilty in securing an outlet. The plan
which the council is now discussing
involves the building of two sewage reser-
voirs, one TO receive the sewage from north
of Jones street, to be located somewhere
east OF the city, perhaps at the foot of
Perry street and the other for the section
south Of Jones street. The projectors idea
IS to build the reservoirs on level or nearly
so with tide water with an outlet near the
bottom and 70 receive the sewage from the
CT near the top so that the hydraulic pres
sure will force flow from the
outlet througo connecting pipes either TO
st. Augustine or Habersham creek, the
pipe from the southern reservoir to empty
into That from tie northern reservoir, and
the main pipe TO be laid on low treste
with fall Of foot or whereabouts to the
mile 10 such point as may be decided upon.
The distance from tho city to either St Au-
gustne creek or Habsrsham creek is about
two aid Il halt or three miles. This plan,
II is claimed, can be put in operation at a
far less expense han the underground sys-
TEN, d It's practicability is claimed TO be
beyond dispute. The matter will probably
be brought bsfore tbs council and formally
discussed at its next meeting.

THE DUCK MARKET Low.
Sportsmen Not Bringing in a Grea
Many Just Now.

Sportsmen Not Bringing in a Great
Many Just Now.
''It is not the sportsmen's fault that there
are noU more ducks on the market" said
sportsman yesterday. He went on to say
that the scarcity of ducks in the market is
due to the scarcity Of the fowl in Savannah
waters, and that there will probably be no
more on the market until later in the season.
The exceedingly mid weather he said had
been unfavorable for them in the sou h.
The Chesapeake il full Of ducks that will
come down here when the weather changes
We don't expect them this month, though
They will not come before March, and it is
only surmising to say that they will
come then. You see we had
pretty fair fall and fair fall is gener-
ally followed by fair spring. In October
we had a big run and over 500 ducks were
sold on this market. If Marcn turns ou5 as
we expect it will there will be fully that
number on the market during that month.
Over 5000 ducks are sold il this
market every SO son, that is when the
weather is favorable. That is equivalent
to about S., 500. The season opens in Octo-
Der and we bring duck in as late as May.
The hotels now are not looking to us for
their game. They are placing their orders
with Baltimore sportsmen. TIere
is very little diff renee in the
cost to them; Baltimore ducks
cost in lots about so cents a pair, and we
sell the same duck for rs csnts. The onlg
difference is IN the flavor. Ducks sh pped
from there are not as well favored when
they reach here as the same duck prepared
a day after beiny killed The tel people
recognize the difference, and they always
take all tn game we can supply"
