GUTTER THE STREETS.

time the grading work is done, other

along the street is washed and quilted
in such manner shat the work must De
done over again and the work is prac-
ticslly thrown away.
The city council thoroughly appre'
ciates this point, and but little grading
will hereafter be done with correspond
ing amount OF gutter work.

manner when it exploded. The justice
fined Anton $40, as he had the gun at
