TOO LATE TO KICK

Superintendent Andrews Arose 10 Inquire
Why Sewer Was laid Under Tracks
There was an angry gen tleman at
the city office last Monday. He was
identified as Superintendent Andrews
of the peninsular division OF the
North Western railway and his angry
passions were aroused because the city
didn't wait upon his movement in
putting through its sewer work lie
arose 70 inquire why the sewer was
laid under the Tobin spur Of the
North Western tracks. His inquiry
was directed az Engineer Brotherton
and the latter had the Egyptian sphinx
backed off the board both in knowledge
and in facial expression. Brotherton
simply didn't know anything about
such matters and Mr.. Andrews had TO
content himself with standing on the
railroad bank and watching the trail
OF the lonesome sewer digger ~ IL
wended its course across the company
right-of.wsy.

INSTALLING a FILTER
Amasa Makes Correct Move To Cure De.
ieetiye Water Supply


Amasa, or Hematite township has
made move for the publication Of
its water supply that can well be
watched by Crystal Falls and copied
if successful and we have no doubt
but that il will be successful.
The township board advertised for
contractors TO sink anotper we'll but
none replied. Then fellow came along
with a filter proposition and it looked
50 good TO the board that they have
ordered IFS installation and the man
commenced work Tuesday.
The filter, which is nothing more
than big concrete reservoir located
ON the bank OF the river. will have
two compartments; one in which the
water will be received from the river
and run through the filtering sub.
stance, consisting Of layers OF gravel,
charcoal and crushed rock
Between this hltering compartment
and the larger reservoir compartment,
there will be connection that will
allow ths'water to flow into the reser.
voir after it has percolated through
the tiltering material The filtering
section will be connected with the
river by an 's" iron pipe fitted with
a valve 50 that the supply can be shut
on and the filter cleaned at any time.
The pump will take the water from
the reservoir and force it TO the big
iron tank at the top Of the tower fro m
which it feeds by gravity TO the mains
OF the village.
The filter will cost the township
about ~. 300 and viii he fine invest
