PLAN FoR PRgsgRvINe REcoRos
Mr.. Hatton Submits Them TO the Street
and Sewer Directors

Mr.. HattOn Submits Them TO the Street
and Sewer Directors.
The Street and Sewer Directors held a
special meeting last evening to examine
the plans submitted by I Chalkley Bat
ton for the purpose of keeping and pre-.
serving records in the departments. The
plan is the same as that which Mr. Hat.
ton found in Providence snd New Haven.
In this plan the exact position OF every
sewer bounded by the street is denoted
and the directors can at once discover
their location when it is wanted to make
repairs, the houses Of the city by block
are carefully indexed by streets, making
the plan so clear that whenever property
owners make complaint and the build
ing inspectors attention is called to it he
knows exactly where to find the plot
The system also enables the directors to
Keep the registry books and assessments
in first class order.
The board decided that the sewer at
kirkwood Park should be built. and
permission was given George 4. Tindall
TO drain houses near that place.
The Fame Hose Company complained
that one OF their horses had been Injured
while returning from the fire at Fourth
and West streets on Wednesday morn
ing, by sewer plate which was out of
order, and with which the horse came ia
contact. 1t was promised that the direc~
tors would consider the matter.

U. S. Marshal q. S. White was in the
city yesterday, and in conversation with
an IxTEImoEScER reporter, expressed
his interest in the candidacy of Mr. ]. Q.
Dsyine for City Sergeant. MI. Deyine is
one of Marshal Whites deputies and
that gentleman's endorsement is to the
effect that the Republican candidate
possesses all the qualifications to make
an excellent Chief OF Police.
Mr.. White said: "You cannot say too
much about Mr.. Devins's competency to
fll the Office for which be is candidate.
He is the best deputy have, is honest
and straightforward, discreet and cour::
ageous, has good executive ability, and
Ia in every way fitted TO make frst'

unusual detective skill, combined with
discretion and courage, Devine is the

charge Of the recent raids on the viola
tors OF the revenue laws in the noun
tains Of Logan and other counties on
the Kentucky border. Il was a risky
undertaking and required a brave, cool.
headed officer. The newspapsrs have
already told how well he performed
his duty on that occasion.
"Another thing about Dsvine," con.
inued the Marshal, lis his sterling in
tegrity. He is above doing anything
mean, or for the mere sake Of making
fees. He never takes ease to work up
II there ia the slightest suspicion in his
mind that the party coming 10 him with
the complaint 10 prompted by petty
spite or malice. OF my entire corps OF
twenty deputies there is not one whom
| would choose above Devine to perform
work requiring extraordinary caro- and
detective ability. The only thing that
bo.hers me is, where an ! going to get
so good a man to fill his place, il he is
