FLACRANT NUISANCE

4 building on the rear end of the
Speiser lot, West Market street, which
for years past has caused complaint,
during the present spring seems to
have become especially Objectionable
because of the offensive odors which
emanate from offals and decomposing
matter in various forms. 1t is "A ques.
tion whether a slaughter house can be
found anywhere that is more object.
iouable than the building ON the
Speiser lot.
Under certain conditions of the at
mosphere the stencil that pervades the
locality of West Market street is intol
erable. Numerous instances of late
might be cited when people passing
on the sidewalks were nauseated and
residents were obliged to seek the
shelter of their houses, closing doors
and windows. Naturally, under other
atmospheric conditions, the offensive
odors may not be detected.
The residents of West Market street
have just grievance. 1t is shame
and disgrace that "A nuisance of such
type should be maintained i'll res
idential part of town where large
sums are invested in real estate and
where in return for their taxes the
property owners should be entitled to
full protection from the borough.
Time and again the nuisance COM
planned of has been reported to the
hnrorrh council " came nm the last
time few weeks ago. as on previous
occasions it was referred to the COM
mittee relief was promised but the
same old story repeats itself and, in
stead of an improvement, conditions,
iF roseihlo nrn GROWING worse
The people in that part of town
have been long suffering, but they are
not in mood to yield longer to a
policy of delay or temporizing. 1t is
the duty of somebody to see to it that
the nuisance is abated that a slaught-
er house or nothing akin to it is main
tanned at or near that spot. Such work
as is conducted there should be rele-
gated to points outside the borough.
Time and again the assurance has
been given that the place would not
be permitted to become offensive, but
past experience has shown that prom
ises count for nothing. Let council
enforce the ordinance. Ample provis-
ions are made for the abatement of
lust such nuisances as the building
complained of. The people have a
right to demand that drastic action be
taken without moments unneces-
sary delay.

DANVILLE BOYS AT STATE

The Danville track team arrived
home on Saturday evening from State
Collage after taking mart in the field
meet, held on Friday. Russell was not
allowed to run, having been disquali-
fed on account of lame ankle. Hur-
ley won a fifth place in the hundred
yard dash, fifth place in the quarter
mile run and fourth place in the broad
jump. Tom Ryan, who has been train
ing under Lee Talbot during the past
week had an off day and was only
able to win second place in the ham
mer throw. Talbot had been training
Ryan with the sixteen pound hammer
and shot. In the meet the twelve
pound weights were used so Ryan had
difficulty getting his correct balance.
Little of Indiana Normal School won
the shot put with throw of 80 feet 6
inches. Ryan still holds the record at
IS feet.
