ONLY ONE DOLLAR Tn DAMAGES.
But the City Must Not Run Its Sew
age That Way.
l.. NJ. Lincoln Obtains Judgment
Against the City - Now for a
New and Better System.

Although the city will not have to go
down very deep in its sack to pay the
judgment in favor of L. NJ. Lincoln on
his claim for S6, 600 damages, the outcome
of the case affects the municipality in
considerable degree.
In his charge to the jury on Saturday
Judge Catlin said they could not go back
more than three years in determining
the extent of injury done, if any. The
jury found for the plaintiff, and awarded
him damages in the sum of 81.
This result is undoubtedly satisfactory
to the landowners south of the city,
many of whom were deeply concerned
in the outcome of the case, as they had
no desire to put the city to great expense
in the matter of ot- .ges-only to deter
mine the question of the city's right TO
continue to run its drainage through or
upon their lands.
II the Judgment should stand, of course
the city will have to devise other means
for dispOsing of its sewage and drainage,
and to this extent it may prove bless
ing. The city itself is deeply concerned
i'll the matter of sewage disposal, and II
she can be forced TO take action that Will
system it will be good thing all round.
There is at present in existence Citi-
ZenS' Advisory Committee, which has
been considering the matter OF deylslng
new sewage or drainage system, and
few months ago it made preliminary re-
port to the City Trustees (which was pub
liShed in the RECORD UNION at the tlme),
outlining system that would, it is be-
lieved, cure the defects in the present
| I TX

mittee.
Ultimately the city will have to use the
river for the purpose of carrying away
its sewage and drainage, which can
readily be done by carrying it all to
point in the southwestern corner OF the
city and pumping it over the levee. This
could be done either with or without the
chemical precipitation" process, al
though beyond question the latter would
be the desirable plan, although perhaps
the more expensive.
The details of the precipitation process
have been too fully explained in the
RECORD UNION from time to time to re-
Quire recapitulation here, but it is un-
doubtedly the best yet devised for the
disposal of sewage. On the other hand,
many contend that all the city sewage
should be pumped directly into the river
below the city. There are no towns south
OF here that use the river water, as the
tides come up to within a few miles OF the
city, and there appears to be no obstacle
in the way of using the river for the pur-
pose named.
Anything of this kind that will enable
the city to abandon its cesspool system
would be God-send to the community.
But even this would require the i'm
provement of the present system OF sew
ers, and it is this matter chiefly to which
the advisory committee have been giving
its affanfinn

Tom Eagan, the man under arrest for
the murder of Charles Berg, was sober
enough on Saturday to talk intelligently
on the subject of the shooting of Charles
Berg, the man killed on Thursday morn
ing at Fourth and * streets.
Eagan was subjected to rigid eXamin-
alton by Chief of Police Rodgers. He
said he had been on a spree for several
days and nights, and on Wednesday
night visited a number of saloons. He
denied, however, that he ever knew any
such person as Berg, though he admitted
having worked on Menke's hop ranch.
where Berg said he had become ac-
quainted with him.
When confronted with Kemp he said
he had never seen him before. The rea-
son he gave for remaining in his room on
Thursday and Friday was that be was
trying to sober up. He denied having
had a pistol on Wednesday night, and
claimed to know nothing of the shooting.

who were well received.
The little girls Of the primary depart
ment. II in number. now took the plat
form. and with their doll drill and little
songs. drew considerable applause from
the audience. The boys o. the primary
department followed. seven Of the little
youngsters appeared on the stage. and
Zach one in turn stepped forward and
iold what he would be when he was a
man. The verses spoken were well fitted
10 the size and present notions Of the
boys as what they would do when they
got TO be a big man."
The Maypole dance by the children Of
the second primary department produced
a very pleasing figure and was well re
ceiyed. An instrumental Duet by Mamie
Moran and Hattie Watson was well exc
cuted and attentively listened 10. The
flag drill by "a girls and boys. together
with the choruses OF the same. was full
of vim and well rendered. A recitation.
entitled "A Poetical Courtship," by Mae
Middleton, was very good. as also was
the vocal solo by Miss Jessie Thorpe.
The next number-the wand drill by
he grammar department-was one OF
the most pleasing features OF the even
ing. and was loudly applauded. At its
finish, Swinging in the Grapevine
Swing" was sung by Gertrude Miner-a
pretty song and well rendered by the
young lady. Miss Lizzie Doonan recited
Convict joe in a very able manner.

was very pretty and well sung.
The next number-the dumb.bell
drill, by the young ladies OF the high
school-lasted - minutes, during which
time uniformity Of action and grace was
displayed that would have been a credit
to far older heads. Lizzie Boyes sang
White Apple Blossoms very prettily.
which was well received.
h exercises for the evening closed
with the 10 Peake Sisters OF the inter.
mediate department. who for II or 20
minutes they occupied. kept the house
In a constant ripple OF laughter, and at
the finish received a hearty round OF ap.
plause.
The performance on the whole was a
affair, and the teachers as well
as the scholars may well feel proud OF
efforts. The receipts were about
300, and the net proceeds, which will be
to the library fund, will be in the
Of go. Professor Charles
and his assistants have worked hard in
arranging the entertainment, and to in
the comfort Of their patrons refused
to sell more tickets than they had chairs
to accommodate, the RESULT being that a
number were turned away. Even then
a few mistakes were made, but less than
are usual. and the management desires
to thank tn public generally for the
kind spirits displayed in overlooking
little slips.
