(Continued from Page 1.) is apparently reaching the final stage. Future fighting will probably be of masses of men on both sides, not of the type heretofore ex emplified. Battle front dispatches indicate the French forces are fighting on the Hindcnburg line, the British are not so far advanced. The Russian statement indicated resumption of violent fighting on the eastern front. Intense Ger man attacks were repulsed. CITY NOTIFIES CITIZENS (Continued from Page 1.) j Toggery.

Precautions have been taken to bank up the intake of' the irrigation ditch which lets the water into the tin sewer, and also for closing gaps in tho levy, in order to prevent floods in that part of town. In excavating for tho heating plant and coal apartments the foundation of the city building has been weakened, and it is my opinion that measures should be taken toward protecting same. I have had a builder examine the foundation, prepare estimate of the cost of plncing additional walls and piers to insure the building's safety. The estimate is only approxi mate, and ranges from $300 to $350. The concrete work on the heating plant has been completed, but forms have not yet been removed. The job will be ready for inspection by next meeting night. Respectfully submitted, . F. B. CURREY, General Mianager, NEW TODAY FOR RENT Furnished housekeep ing rooms, 1905 Adams. Phone Bllack 3661.
