COMMISSIONER is
REGULAR DETECTIVE

After flushing a sewer in the first
alley south of Main street, between
Twenty-first and Twenty-second
streets, Street Commissioner GEM
discovered why the cellars of the resi-
dents of those streets were filed with
water during the rainy weather Some
resident had tapped the city sewer
with his sewer and blocked the pas
sage of water from above, Gem says.
The city sewer was believed to be
ample to carry away all water. The
street commissioner believed it was
clogged. 1t was flushed several times
with no better results. Ordering the
sewer dug up at the point where the
trouble appeared to be, he found that
the city sewer tile had been cut into
and a HORSEPOWER had placed a drain
tile completely across the sewer. al
lowing only a small amount of water
to pass the place. The city repaired
the tap at cost of about $35.
