BROKEN SEWER WILL
CAUSE MUCH WORK.

ExcnVnting mt Foot of whitaker
Street Started Yesterday.
The big sewer at the foot of Whit
aker street has broken and it will be
necessary to excavate for about fifty
feet in order to repair it.
The work was started yesterday
morning. 1t will probably take sew
eral days before the break can be
reached and the cost of the work will
be considerable.
The sewer broke several feet below
the level of the river bank and the
excavation will have to be made from
the level of Whitaker street, as the
broken place is on the south side of
the retaining wall.

young woman is said to be
seriously i'll from the effects Of
the brutal treatment. The men
are both charged by the states
attorney With breaking into the

separate and more serious charge,
that Of committing rape. II the
story is true, Frantz is nothing
