WILL TAI THE KING STREET SEVER.
The government authorities in this city
have formally decided to abandon the
present ST. Assph street sewer and tap
the one recently constructed by the city
on King street. Mr.. Thomas W. Robin
sou, custodian of the custom house,
has received the specifications which
provide for an eight-inch terra Gotta
pipe from the custom house building to
King street. Proposals will be received
ut once and the work prosecuted at
soon as possible. The proposition to
run the sewer down st. Asaph street
and into Duke was rejected, as it would
be necessary to tear up several squares
to carry out that plan, while in order 10
carry the sewer TO King street much
shorter route is presented with salts
factory tall, as there is down grade
almost all the way from the custom
house. TIE government will, of course,
pay the city for the privilege of tapping
its sewer, and that TO be built for the
use ofthe custom house will be strictly
private affair which no one will be al
lowed to tap.

STRIKE ON THE CHAIN GANG =
Twenty-one tramps, who had been sent
10 Jail for ten days under the vagrant
act. struck this morning and refused to
work. When the Jail officials were pre-
pairing to send them out the prisoners
pretended they were willing to work
but objected to being shackled. A
telephone message was sent to the
Mayor asking him to allow them to be
taken out of jail without the balls and
chains and the request was denied. He
was told that the city had but eight
pairs of schackle and that it would be
impossible to secure all the prisoners,
and the Mayor decided to bring out to
day as many as could be shackled and
Tomorrow and the next day the others
could be brought out, thus forming re-
LAYS. When the decision was commu-
nicated to the prisoners they all with
one accord struck, refusing positively
to do any work for the city. A squad
of policemen was sent to the jail and
the strikers brought to the station
house and locked up on bread and wa
ter. OF course, the plan of the prison
ers was to get into the streets without
the balls and chains and run away.
There is but one way to end the chronic
trouble with insubordinate members OF
che chain gang-and that is for Council
TO come to the rescue with hogging
act, which the State law gives them the
power to pass.
