THE ADAMS sTager sgwgR.
The New brain which Has Been Placed
on That Street.

The New brain which Has Been Placed
on That Street.
Contractor Frank Curry has finished
the Adams street sewer and 1t Is now one
Of the best ia the city. The improve
ments to the sewer we're started about
one month ago and were pushed rapidly
forward until they are now complete.
This sewer turns sharply from Adams
street at Lancaster avenue and runs
obliquely across the square bounded by
Reed, Front, Monroe and Adams streets
1t was between these streets that it was
rebuilt
At this place, during every rain. the
water rises over the top of the sewer and
floods the cellars, end often the first floor
of the buildings in the square. 1t was
TO remedy this that the new section of
sewer was built,
The contractor began by turning the
water TO one side and taking down part
Of the walls Of the old sewer. He
then had the floor or bottom OF the sewer
thoroughly cleaned,
Then NoIkmen began the task Of
building the new section. The floor was
first built. Then on this staging was
placed, and the side walls were built
up,
The sewer here Is not round as are
most Of the others in the city. Instead,
its floor and sides just form semi circle
| When the brick work, which included
the floor and sides, had been finished. the
work OF putting on the roof commenced.
| This roof is very simply formed of
large Hag-stones. very long, which are
placed transversely over the sides. This
forms a very good roof and is as strong
and durable and cheaper than bricks.
When nearly all the top or roof had
been placed on, men were sent below 10
clean out the refuse matter, pieces OF
brick and the mortar which blocked the
floor When this had been done, the
remainder of the roof was built and the
more substantial part Of the sewer had
been completed. The covering OF earth
was now laid over this and pedestrians
can walk over It without suspectinE that
a stream OF water carrying loads Of
refuse and 9th is flowing beneath them
Although this sewer is well and sub
stantially built and is possibly the best
in the city. still its size is inadequate Il
the demands made upon it. During d
rain all the flow Of water from all the
hills east Of Broome street must b
accommodated by this sewer Thus, Il
must be very large one, situated as il
is at the base OF an the hills, and ever
in dry weather its capacity is taxed By
the water flowing into IL.
The residents about there think thai
some steps should be taken to accommo
date this water, for even with q larg,
sewer there is a possibility Of its over
dow during q severe storm. The inleti
to the sewer ara at some places TO small
to allow the large quantity of water Ii
pass through them into the sewer an,
thus they contribute to the possibility o
an overflow.

the opinion eAaA II the local engineer in
charge OF Tiver and harbor works deemed
the filling IN necessary and would call the
attention OF tho department formally to
the mattar, board Of engineers would be
appointed TO mako report thereon. II
was ascermineA, however, that there was

that in view Of this small amount that a

Ertraordipnrr PolItrneas.

The inhabitants Of Second street were
much amused by the antics of man yes
terday whose legs appeared to be unable
to bear his body and whose neck must
have been very weak; otherwise his head
would be held in more upright position
His actions indicated politeness extraor-
binary, for on meeting a group Of women
or children he would take eff his hat and
bow until his head almost touched the
ground, and in many instances 1t was
with difficulty he kept it from
actually hitting the pavement
and recovered q vertical latitude.
Some OF the women he met were at frst
afraid Of him, but his apparent good
nature and politeness changed the fear
into amusement he was compliment
airy TO everything and everybody, and
his hand was ever stretched out to take
that Of his neighbor in a bFotherly grasp.
Two officers stood looking on, one Of
whom was inclined 20 make an arrest for
drunkenness, but be was dissuaded by the
other, and the polite, good natured
philanthropist was allowed to go his
way unmolested.
