In detail, the picture is one of the

by Spanish guns and in possession
of Co. E, of Caldwell, Idaho, volun-
teers under command Of Captain
Castle of this city, and which was
the first company to reach the font
and place there the American flag
Large holes are torn in the side OF
the fort and the cannon on top are
damaged by the discharge of the
American guns from the battleships
then lying in the bay. A brok en-
flagstaff on the top of the fort
shows where one of the gunners on
board the famous battleship Petrol,
having secured permission to shoot
at it and the first shot only grazing
it, fired a second time at it, cut
ting it in two. 1t was later re-
placed with an American flag at
the top.
On the right side of the stage in
the panel of the proscenium will be

ais, where the grades are good may

The number Of Y-branches found
in my estimate will appear too
large to many, but l have counted
two for the corner lots bordering
on two sewers. The cost of Y
branch is just twice that of a
straight pipe. Hence if pipe is 25c
per foot, Y will cost 50c addi-
tional, and you can not afford to
omit the Y where it may be needed
at some future time; for few plumb
ers or masons can tap sewer pipe
after laid without injury to the
main sewer, and then only at a
much greater cost for few taps
than all the extra Us will cost.

am sending three copies of the
specifications. When all of the
debatable points are settled, it viii
rpay the council to have 100 copies
of the specifications printed to send
to inquiring contractors. Wide
publicity in advertising the con
tracts to be let will make gain to
the city in securing the best con.
tractor for the undertaking.
In view Of the fact that Moscow,
septic tank has given cause fol
complaint recently, shall max,
some slight alterations in the plar
of the one l had drawn, and henc,
this drawing as we'll as details o
some other appurtenances are no

to consult authorities on some o
the points touched in the plans

books which are authority, or evel
to send them for short time.
The problem Of sewerage is jus
as vital to the interests aud healt
Of the community as the waite
question and its supply, and henc
is worthy Of more than a passin
notice.
There will be much preliminar
work required of council, attorne
and engineer, in matters pertain
ing to the manner of assessing tn
cost Of the system. After the sys
TEN is constructed, you will requir
a plumbing ordinance to contrC
the use of and connections to til

tions can be settled this winter be

aud thus be ready to let the con
tract with the advent of the raj
