That seventeenth-street Sewer Question
Bobs Up sereneIy.

Bobs Up sereneIy.
DR.. Nichols, the Health Officer, in.
formed the Board of Trustees yesterday
that he had made thorough examination
of the Seventeenth street canal, and could
say positively that it was in filthy con.
dition. There was scum over an inch
thick on the top of the water, and the
stencil which emanated therefrom was uu.
bearable. The reIUse matter from the
breweries and wineries. he believed, caused
the filthy condition of the canal, and if the
Board intended to allow them to continue
draining into it, the only way to afford
protection TO the propezty-owners would
be to. cover the ditch its entire length.
DR.. Nichols advice was placed on file.
