BOND ISSUE FOR
SEPTIC TANK WILL
Be UP TO VOTERS
CITY ENGINEER E. F. ksTTER
MAKES REPORT STATING THE
TANKS WILL COST AP-
FORTUNATELY $500 = WILL
NEED TWO TANKS NOW.
On motion Of Mr.. HanIy, City At
tornsy David Il. Robertson is
Ordered to Draw Ordinance Pro-
vIdIua for election to Issue bonds.

IL looks as il Mexico will have a
semitic tank, soon.
At the special meeting of the
City Council, Monday evening, on
motion OF Mr.. Hanly, City Attor.
ney David H. Robertson was ord,
cred to draw an ordinance provid-.
ing for an election to issue bonds
for the purchase and instalment Of
two septic tanks. The ordinance will
probably provide for bonds to the
amonnt Of $1,000. The remainder Of
the money needed, about $500,
will be taken from the special sew
or fund.
City Engineer q. F. Ketter, In
his report ON the septic tank, said
only two tanks would be needed In
this city at present, large one at
the end Of the main sewer east Of
East Holm Place and smaller one
at the end Of the south sewer emp
tying into Beaver Dam Creek south.
west Of the Wabash bridge. His
plan for the main sewwer calls for
q cne-story plain septic tank, S0x64
divided longitudinally into 3 com
partments of an average depth Of
10 feet. This will cost about $1,000.
For the south sewer he plans a
tank S6x20 divided longitudinally In
to two compartments Of an average
depth Of nine feet.
This to cost about $500. Mr..
Ketter says these tanks win take
care of all the sewage of the city
at the present.
The special meeting Of the Coun-.
Gil Monday evening. was called to
take up this matter and the ordi-
nance allowing the Mexico Invest
ment and Construction Co., a
franchise to build line on West
jackson street to connect with the
Chicago & Alton tracks at Mis-
souri avenue. This ordinance was
passed almost unanimously. Some of
the Councilmen asked that the
owners of the electric line remove
the track now laid on West Liberty
street. Judge W. w. Bolts, how
ever, said the owners still had a
deal on with the Chicago finan-
ciers to purchase the South end and
the removal of the West Liberty
street track would materially in--
jure this line. He said he thought
the Chicago people would pay $12,5O0
for the South end If they intended
extending 1t.
Resolutions we're passed order
ing the Wabash and Chicago & Al
ton Railroad Companies to repair
the crossings at jefferson and Nor
ris streets and Western Ave. If
this Is not done by the railroad COM
panies the City will do the work
and charge 1t to the railroads.
A walk was ordered along the
west side of Mrs. Mollle French's
property on Coal street and the Wa
bash Railroad Co. was ordered to
build aswalk along their property on
West Liberty street. Gus Steinman
was ordered to repair his walk on

BUD NoRTHFLEET. OF THE U
s. S. VIRGINIA. WHO SAW
REAL ACTION JUST BEFORE
BEING PAID OUT. VISITS HIS
MOTHER IN MEXICO.
Was Among the first boatIoads
from the battleshlps to land on
the shore Of Mexico when pres
ent Invasion started.

"All OF the landing party laughed
and joked until the snipers began to
get our men and then we realized
II was real war and got busy"
That is the terse and telling de-
scription of the American marines
landing at Vera Cruz, under fire, as
told by Bud Northfleet, a Mexico
boy, who was on the U. S. s.
Virginia and was among the first to
touch Mexican soil on the recent in
Vasion. Mr. Northfleet has
Just been paid out, having served
three years and six months in the
navy. He is visiting his mother.
Mrs. Emma Northfleet. in east Mex
leo. ftE \ llf
Mr.. Northfleet says the trouble Is
all over in Mexico judging from what
can be learned in Vera Cruz. He
returned from Vera Cruz this week
on a transport. Since the troops
have arrived and the marines have
been taken back to the vessels and
relieved of shore duty they have
found the waiting for something to
develop rather irksome. Mr.. North
fleet says he will not re-enlist un-
less war develops.
Women, as well as men, were kill
ed at the landing of Vera Cruz, ac-
cording to his story, though this
fact was censured from the news
dispatches. The wives and sweet
hearts Of the Mexican snipers, who
shot from any possible hiding place.
killed as many Americans as the
men. In THE daytime the Mexlcans
would walk in the middle or the
streets and give the Americans the
sidewalks. At night If an Ameri--
can wandered into a dark street he
was fortunate If he escaped alive.
this being true even after the
city was supposedly completely sub
dued.
The fighting in and about Vera
Cruz lasted fully a week. This was
Mr. Northfleet's first experience un--
der fire and he admits that III
makes you feel rather queer" Dur
ing this first week the men slept
wherever they happened to be, max
Ing no effort to erect tents. 1t
was while asleep that he came near
being shot, the bullet from a snip
er's gun passing through the blanket
wrapped about him. The difference
Of an inch, In one direction, would
have meant serious wound.
The battleships aided materially in
the success of the landing force. To
d'slodge snipers, many buildings were
shelled. He states in the Vera Cruz
Naval Academy schrapnel killed
1853 Mexicans alone. One of the
best aids of the landing parties
were the Benet-Mercier machine
guns firing 600 shots a minute. I'll
will be remembered one of these
guns was shown in Mexico not long
ago when a machine gun company of
National Guard was projected here.
He says the Mexicans have no cour
age but are always looking for a
npot shot" at American soldiers un--
der cover of darkness.
