between Clinton and Marshalltown UNI
til the first of June before the poles
are lowered between these points. The
men travel on hand cars in charge of
Conductor Osborne of the Northwest

ground, and it's foot placed i'm the hole
prepared for 1t, lowering the entire
pole some eight feet; after which the
crew goes to the net. and so on down
the line. The crew will cover a mile
of track day, cutting off and re-
erecting about 80 poles each day. AS

Water Scarce on Capitol Hill.

Residents of Capitol Hnl suffered more
than their share OF Inconvenience on ac-
count OF the heavy downpour OF rain yes
terday afternoon. Strenuous efforts were
being made by the water department to set
a new valve in the water main at the cor
ner Of 4th and b streets northeast. and
also TO quickly repair an Old break in the
main at the corner Of Delaware avenue and
b street northeast yesterday. but the rain
filed the bitches and the workmen were
held up for more than two hours All OF
last night gangs Of men were busy. but tho
schedule which called for completion of
the task by o'clock this morning could
not be filed. on this account fun pressure
could not be turned into the big main which
carries water 10 all Capitol Hill and the
result this morning was that not one faucet
above tho first floor level IN any home In
that section of the city gave forth its ac-
Customed supply of the extract OF Potomac
