Alderman Burns brought up the
question Of establishing a new road
out to Graceland cemetery. He
state' that the time vas coming
when the present road would have to
he abandoned, or a large amount of
money would have to be expended to
fill in the long draw. He suggested
the Sanborn street road being used to
the city limits and then crossing
owe to Wisconsin street, which he
thought ought to be opened through
to the cemetery. 1t would require
some expense to accomplish this,
but one done it would settle the
road question to the cemetery.
After the discussion was finished
concerning the new road to the
cemetery, Alderman Reeves said he
thought that once In a while we
ought to think of the living, and he
introduced the proposition OF provid-
ing the city with an ambulance.
He noticed the other day that a
patient was brought in on the train
and the best thing that was offered
to take the person out to st. Joseph's
hospital was a dray, and on this
the patient was hauled through town.
In view Of tie fact that so many sick
people are 20 brought to the city 1t
would be a humane idea to secure an
ambulance in which to convey the
sick. Mr.. Reeves proposition was
cordially endorsed oy the council
members and he was requested to
make inquiry as to the possible cost
| Of a new OF second hand outfit.
The contract for constructing q
cement sidewalk on the south side
was awarded to Connolly, of Sioux
Falls.
Alderman Joseph Koch made a
verbal report on the septic tank,
stating that since they had been
flushing tie tank that there APP
peared to be much less ordor arising
from it. The proposition OF build
ing a lev tank "a brought up and
the suggestion prevailed that the
sewer committee ought to make a
thorough investigation Of successful
septic tanks at other places before
attempting to build another as will
be- required under the contract with
the VanEps estate, and Furthermore
that no time SHOULD be lost in getting
at this improvement: to have it CON-
