THIRD and OAK STREETS
The Sewerage Question.
The present scheme for sewerage has
excited considerable : opposition. It
runs in part up 3rd and across Madison,
where a ditch was never;dug nor a side
walk laid, and as far east as Jackson,
stopping short of the public schools,
which has just been fixed at considera
ble expense. '
Some argue that the pipes would have
shorter range for connection running
through the alleys and prevent the cut
ting up of the main streets. That the
natural drainage south of Fifth is to
wards the basin, which would require
no deep drains through the jocks of
Center and 7th streets, but that surface
drainage is most needed, which these
pipes would not take. It is thought
that the enforcement of streams polution
act may in the near future prevont
drainage to the river, and no extensive
system should be started that way.
Probably a moderate scheme in the
tier of blocks between 5th and 7th, and
south of Adams street, which could have
been run with four or five feet depth of
drains and at moderate expense, would
have raised no opposition, but outside
districts kick against the expense oi the
present scheme. K

to the complaint of the plaintiff she e vi
denily considers that It would have been
better fur her sake had tht-y never mar
ried. She al'eifes that they were mar
ried in Iowa in 1872, and that jealousy
and cruelty were featurs of the treat
ment that Bhe received lrom sane.
About three years ago. it is further al

E.D.Horner, a painter of Portland,
and known to many people here, is now
in the Lane county jail bound over to

Weber, who were former residents of
Corvallis. are accused of forging a not"
for $5,000 purported to have been
signed by J. B. Coleman, a well known
ciiizen of Eugene. Suit was brought to
recover on the note, but the foruery
was exposed in open court. A little

Officer Shaw and Constable McCown
were making a chase the other f-venine

Finally they espied a man going up the
dark alley from Maddock. restaurant.
The oflteials started in pursuit, and
when they reach the tailroad track the
victim stumbled and fell, and hurriedly
cried, I'll dig tip." It was case of
mistaken identity. The innocent vic
tim thought thugs were after his money
and the perspiration stood on his fore
bead in beaded drops. Mrs. Farr, who
was going np the Third street steps,
heard the noise, and when she reached
home, told her sons about a hold-np on
the railroad track.

Sewerage In the Hill District Dls- -,
cussed and Committee Ap
pointed. A lively meeting was held at the council
chamber Saturday night to discuss the
proposed sewerage system on the hill,
and to appoint a committee to confer '
with the city council committee on
streets and public property. Charles
H. Caulleld was elected chairmau.
There was a fairly good representation
of property owners present, and soon an
animated discussion was under way.
Remarks on the proposed system of sew
erage was made by H. O. Stevens and '
Councilman Koerner, who favored a
system of sewerage built in a practical
business-like way.
Water Superintendent W. H. Howell
favored a system of tile or stone drains
built along the pipe lines to carry off
the surface water. G. R. H Miller coo
cur red In the views of Mr. Ho ell.
Mr. Stevens suggested that the proper
way to have the lots drained of surface
water was to improve the streets.
In answer to a query, Councilman
Schuebel, chairman of the committee on
streets and public property, said no sew
erage system would lie esiablished un
less a majority of the property owners
were in favor of it.
G. E. Hargreaves thought that water
drainage was needed more ihan a sewer
system, but wanted the expense of the
system paid out the general fund.
Mr. Stevens called attention to the
uct, that this meeting was called not
to decide the matter of sewerage, but to
appoint a committee to confer with the
city council committee on streets and
public pioperty and the city engineer.
On a motion seconded by W, B. Zura
walt, Chairman Oaiifield appointed a
committee consisting of II. 0. Stevens,
T. L. Otiaruutn and G. E, Hayes. The
committee may conclude to extend the
present proposed sewer district, and
will probably report at the adjourned
meeting of the council Wednesday
night. i
Caleb Cross objected to being taxed
for a sewerage system.
