Front until Warren creek is reached,
and then this big sewer is com
pressed into an eight inch sewer UNI
til Poplar street is reached. From
Poplar to Jackson street, the sewer
is only ten inches in diameter. To
provide for overflow when the sewer
is overtaXed, there is an overflow in
to Warren creek. This means that
sewage from the sanitary sewer is
liable at any time to overflow into
small rivulet, which most of the
time is dry. Such a thing seems
almost beyond comprehension, and
it is to remedy this serious defect
in the sewer system that Mr.. Will
son, the former city engineer, has
been strongly urging that the Sec
ond street sewer be enlarged and
that it empty into the trunk sewer
at Washington street instead of into
the Liberty and Front street sew
ers
The sewer on Second street from
Cherry north to Washington is fif-
teen inches in diameter, and it is
proposed now to make this fifteen
inches to Liberty. This will give
a fifteen inch sewer. right through
on Second street and relieve the
pressure on the Front street sewer,
which has no more capacity than
it's smallest section, which is only
eight inches in diameter.

particular one only about year.

The sprayer will spray paris green,
arsenate of lead, Bordeaux mixture,

the simplest one on the market, but
that it is the most practical sprayer
made. 1t is made of brass and gal
vaniZed iron.
The advisory board of the CONNER
cial club may meet tomorrow to con-
slider the matter. Mr.. Brandt will ar
rive tomorrow.

Hotaling's Observations In Mankato
(From The Mapleton Enterprise

1t was the concensus of opinion
of the members OF the late federal
grand jury which met at Mankato,
that it was one of the most beauti-
full cities in the state. Quite a large
percentage of the jurors had never
been i'm the city before as they
talked of the beauties of the city
we were not only pleased, but proud.
Mankato is truly beautiful city
and we just wish to make one sug
gestion to the Commercial club OF
that city. 1t is this: The next
in Mankato make it a point to take
the jurors and court officers out to
Sibley park. Let them see one of
the grandest parks in the country, a
has few equals. Then if time allows
take them out to the Rapidan dam
where power is being generated to
propel factories, run the street car
system and light the city. Mankato
has future but it needs boosters
who will look after the little things
that advertise a city and make it
great.
A term of the United States court
in Mankato without the presence of
E. r. Kennedy, Bennett Williams and
Wallie Anderson would be like En-
erald Park without Tom Griffin's bull
dogs. They stand guard without the
door of the jury rooms duly armed
with the authority of their respect
i've offices and woe unto the fellow
that gets by them, although such
things do happen as evidenced by
the deaf witness who remained in
the grand jury room until he was in
vited to take his seat with the rest
of the jurors and then remarked
Pm no juror, Pm a witness"
Some men have hobbies and one

too wide, and which is soon to- be
paved, consequently they want the
car line taken up. They would have
it run up what is known as the
Silver ravine for distance and then
over Lock street to it's present track.
1t sounds all right but an investiga-
ton of the topography of the locality
reveals that ii is a hard and eXpen-
sive task and the street railway com
pany have not declared any heavy
dividends so far and prefer holding

We note j. c. Wise has again been
elected vestryman of the Episcopal
church, a position which he has held
for several years. Newspapermen as
a general rule do not make very
good churchmen but we suppose Mr..
Wise is an exception to the rule as
he holds down his job pretty well.
AS a matter of fact, our own church
record commenced and ended with
this self same church. When a lad
learning the printers trade we Off
ciated as janitor of this edifice in or
der to make both ends meet. In the
very peak Of the church there was
a rather wide crack where all the
heat that might be terminated in
the basement below soon found exit
and no matter how hard we worked
we found it a very difficult matter
to have the church sufficiently
warmed to make it comfortable for
the congregation at the proper hour
The veStrymen at that time were A.
M. Smith and Professor Gorie, super
intendent of the city schools. They
were inclined to find fault but an i'll
vestigation of the degree of heat in
the basement convinced them that a
printers devil was about the right
kind of a man to officiate at such a
job If he couldn't warm the place
it could not be done-without fixing
the roof. -sAH

A walk down Front street certain
ly indicates that r. e. Brown, the To-
cal manager of the Consumers Power
company has not been idle and that
more electric juice is being used in
Mankato than at any other period
in the city's existence. Everywhere
new electric signs are in evidence
and more are being installed. This
is not the only place that the new
power company is showing how it
will benefit the city. We are in
formed that the Mankato Manufac-
turing company and the Mankato
Broom company are. now running
their plants with power from the big
dam and negotiations are under way
to pump the city water. With all
these together with lighting the city
and running the street railway it is
said but one-fourth of the power at
Rapidan is being used, consequently
we are looking for more manufacture
ing at Mankato and the extension of
the power to adjoining towns, as well
as being utilized in running a car
line to Minneapolis and st. Paul.
