CATION The committee to report at
the next regular meeting OF the board.
Chairman Smith of the street and
alley committee reported that the
Eighth street cut would probably be
completed this week. He called the at
tention of the council to the mud hole
on the corner Of Ninth street and
Third avenue, which he said was due
to the Nathan lawn being irrigated
too profusely. He stated that he
thought the water superintendent
should see that such practices cease
Water Superintendent Redman stated
that he had spoken to Mr.. Nathan
about the matter, and the trouble
seemed to be due to the arrangement
of the sprays. Alderman Smith moved
that the water superintendent be in
structed to notify Mr.. Nathan that
his system of irrigation must be con
trolled. Alderman Turner said that
Mr.. Nathan's property was a credit
to the city and the council should
avoid working any hardships on him.
Alderman Nelson replied that the
board did not desire to work hard
ship upon Mr.. Nathan but he must not
be allowed to make his irrigation
street nuisance. The motion was car.

Alderman Cummins again called the
attention OF the council to the neces-
sity of providing four or five half
blocks in the neighborhood of Seventh
avenue with a sewer. Whether or not
II would be advisable TO incorporate
this In sewer district No. or to form
a new sewer district, was discussed at
length. City Engineer Goodman stated
that there were fifty-six lots to be
connected and the capacity of the
pipes in district No. 2 were large
enough to accommodate these but not
sufficiently large to provide for any
others. Alderman Smith stated that
It was necessary for the council to

DEATH.

Yesterday morning Billy Bacon
found the dead body OF Charley Briggs.
an old-timer in the San Juan. on the
road above the Bonnie Girl mine. about
a mile and half beyond La Plata
City. His head and knees were badly
cut.
Sunday evening Mr.. Briggs left La
Plata City. where he had spent the
day going on foot up the trail to his
cabin. The trial winds around the
top of the mountain above the Bonnie
Girl mine where there is a very steep
rocky slope with a drop of about seven
ty feet. to a roadway that has been
cut out of solid rock. with drop OF
some ten feet below.
The appearance of the body gave
rise to the conclusion that Mr.. Briggs
had slipped from the trail and rolled
down the mountain and to the road
below. Coroner George Goodman was
notified and Sheriff Clarke and Deputy
Coroner Ray Goodman went after the
remains returning last night. No In
quest VIII be held.
The departed was about 65 years
OF age. member Of the G. A. r. and
