In entering our Office yesterday
morning we were surprised to see
it flooded by water. Upon inquiry
we found that when Mr.. Rudger
came to open the jewelry store OF
Mr.. Biossat, he noticed a great
quantity of water in the side ditch,
and Mr.. Biossat's boy who was
along discovered that the water
which was still flowing came from
the floor occupied by the Century
Club. Running up stairs he dis
covered that the faucet of the pipe
which supplies the shower bath
with water was wide open, and he
shut it off. There was about two
inches of standing water in the room
OF the Century Climb where the
shower bath is located, and the
water fltering through the floor
filled the types cases. damaging
the press, rollers, and a quantity
of job work already done without
counting the loss of time to put
our office in good order again.
The cause Of this internal flood
is not known.
But he it as it may, it is no less
than gross criminal carelessness.
