pillars with an arch in which hung the
marriage bell. and under which the

SEWER PLANS READY.
Engineer Dunn Has Detail Maps Of Sewers
Completed.

The sewer plans for the city of Aber-
erdean, ordered some time ago by the
city council, after good deal of labor
and considerable time, are now ready so
that the council can call for bids for
their constl uc,iun at any time.
The plan divides the city into S dis
tricts being one from Broadway on the
west to i street, on the east. and run
ming from the water front back to Bur-
leigh avenue on the north. Thi- will be
the first to be operated as the principal
part OF the business section is located
within its limits.
The principal sewer for this district
will be laid on II street, the pipe being
1S-inch vitrified sewer pipe, and the run
level will be fall Of three inches in
every 100 feet on the fiat. On account of
the fatness ofjthe business portion OF the
city, and the necessity of leaving the
mouth of the sewer pipe high enough SO
that the tide will flush it, the grade can
not be any greater. All lateral sewers

To prevent the main sewers from get
ting out of the level. the bottom OF the
bed will be tamped with gravel and the
pipe will be laid in bed of gravel. This
will insure perfect fall, and guard
against the sag that otherwise would
occur.
The pipe necessary for the whole job
is as follows: $4,000 feet six inch pipe,
720 feet of eight inch, 1870 feet OF ten
inch, 740 feet of twelve inch, 720 feet of
fifteen inch, and 6S4 feet OF IS inch.
1t stands now for the council to take
the next step, in bringing to pass this
much needed improvement so that by
next summer the business part of the
city will have adequate drainage.
