GRAY. ON SEWERAGE.
He EXPLAINS HIS IDEAS TO
THE CITY COUNCIL
And Is Awarded the Contract An
Interesting Address on the Sewer
age Question by One of the Most
Prominent Civil Engineers IN
America.

AT 4:4j o'clock yesterday after,
noon Mayor Paschal called the
special meeting of the board of
aldermen, and after the roll call
his honor stated the object Of the
meeting. He said: ~ have called
your honorable body together for
the purpose of taking some steps
towards complete sewerage sys-
tenn in San Antonio. In order that
we may be thoroughly acquainted
with the plans, etc, and to know
exactly how to start in the matter,
| have asked Mr.. $. ". Gray, a
noted engineer and contractor of
Providence. X. l., who has been in
the city for the past week looking
into the matter of sewerage. to adj
dress us, which he has kindly con-
scented to do
The mayor then introduced Mr.
Gray, who said in substance:
"GOur honor, and gentlemen Of
1.-The council: ! have closely inspect
ed all portions of San Antonio. and
find it to be the largest city for it's
population have ever seen. This
area will necessitate more feet of
sewer in proportion to the pOpula-
ton than would be otherwise need
ed. | have found that the city has
no ground water, and very little
rock or quicksand, which will offset
the expense of the greater distances.
"NOW the question comes up,
what kind Of a system is best!
aft an outflow for storm water
was needed, it would be better to
build the combined system, but |
see no call for storm sewers if they
are built large enough to take a
large quantity of the rain water.
aft the sewers are built to take
in large portion of the rain water
they will be unnecessarily large
and expensive. The same quantity
of sewage flowing in a small
sewer would have a greater velOci-
ty than the same amount Of sewage
flowing in a large sewer on the
same grade.
"Flushing tanks are seldom used
in the combined system.
"The separate system is the syS-
tenn for this city. In that system
the sewers take no rain in them, and
you must have an ample supply of
water at a reasonable rate to flush
them. The grades throughout the
city are such as to give good
velocity.
at will be easy to use some of
the water from the irrigation
bitches to flush the sewers, but
there will be some which cannot
be flushed in that way"
"There should be manhOles at
the intersection Of every street at
least, and at some points inter-
mediate ones may be needed. If
manhOles are left off they will
have to be put in later.
"San Antonio can have the small
est sewers relatively of any place
which | have encountered. There
is absolutely no ground water and
there is little water from the roofs.
/ would advise the city not to lay
foot of sewer less than eight
inches in diamater.
at is important to have dwell
lings and buildings properly con.
nected with the sewers. No one
should be allowed to connect with
sewers except licensed drain lay
ers who should have permits is.
sued to them and the owners Of
buildings should also be requested
to get permits from the proper
authorities. There is no system

You can say that 1t lacks verihcation,"

SEEN IN A DREAM.
The Roots That Were to Cure a Boy of
LOckjaw.

The Roots That Were to Cure q Boy of
LOckjaw.
A remarkable story is agitating the COM
munity of Savannah. Mo-, near st. Joseph
Some time last June Thomas, the eleven
year-old son Of a farmer named Alexander
Gilpin. was stricken with rheumatism of the
right side and leg. The pain was 50 severe
that his parents were obliged to keep any
thing from touching the body or limb. Doc
tors could do nothing to stop the pain. which
became so severe that the boy had lockj jaw.
On Thursday he fell into what seemed to be
q trance, and could not be aroused for some
hours. When he was finally awakened, be-
ing unable to talk. he wrote on a piece Of
paper to his parents that he had seen his
two little dead brothers and sister. He said
they had told him to send to a certain field
and at a particular place to scrape away the
snow until they would find bed Of moss,
and under this bunch Of roots which they
were to bring to him.
The doubling parents yielded to his en-
treaties and going to the place, found
everything as the boy had stated. They
brought the roots home, and the boy told
them how he had been instructed to pre-
pare an ointment with them. The ointment
was made and applied to the seat of pain,
the result being that the next day the boy
left his bed and all traces Of lockjaw dis
appeared. He can now walk as well as
ever.
These facts are vouched for by o. ]. Hurl-
ry, editor Of the Savannah Democrat, the
hysicians, and all Of Gilpin's neighbors.

The insistence upon the ''v'' instead OF the

for his (the judge's) whiskers were not

The board sidewalk across the track Is at
the north side Of the crossing and the gate
IL located at the south side next to the sta
ton. The arm Of the gate is long enough
to extend only over the wagon road. so
that 1t is the most natural thing for a
pedestrian passing the bright light at the
drug store to cross the track without motto
ing the gate. even though the arm across
the wagon road be down.
The law requires the railroad company
to guard the sidewalk as well as the road
way" said Prosecuting Attorney Pugh in
conversation with Star reporter this
morning. THE law" he added. "is plain
and has been passed upon by the courts
The law mentioned is a section of the
police regulations and provides:
Whenever the grade of a steam railway
track is approximately even with the ad-
tacent surface the line Of the road shall be
securely closed on both sides with a sub
stantial fence. and all grade crossings or
intersections of any steam railroad track
with streets or avenues shall be securely
guarded by a suitable gate or guard erected
and maintained by the company owning or
operating such track"
Continuing, Mr.. Pugh said that the rail-
road company was proceeded against in
the matter of the Brookland crossing,
where state of affairs similar to that in
the Takoma case existed. An old citizen,
he said. made an attempt to get over the
track following from the line of the side
walk and was killed. Shortly after that &C.
currence a case was taken into court and
Judge Kimball compelled the company to
extend the arms of the gates so as to pro-
tect the sidewalks.

The Truth for Today.

From the Monthly Register.
Times of depression such as the present
call for something like suspension of the
rules. Save all you can." is ordinarily a
sound economical maxim, but 1t is not the
truth for today. when we have multitudes
of unemployed people around us. Spend
all you can,' seems to be the word In sea-
son for the ears of the rich and well-to-do.
Whatever legitimate expenditures can be
made to give work to the unemployed
should be made at once. 1t is the best form
of charity to relieve the needy by enabling
them to feed themselves, for their own
bread is far sweeter to the taste than any
other. This Is not the day for spending
less than at other times. it Is rather the
day for spending freely in every direction
in which there appears a reasonable chance
of putting work into the hands Of honest
labor.
