GUTTERS ABE CLEANED.
Some Effort Made to Stop Main Street
.Stench.
Early this morning several gangs of
men were placed at work cleaning the
gutters on Main and Court streets.
One of the crews was composed of
prlsontrs from the city jail and work'
ed under direction of Marshal Gur
dane. The gutters were cleared of
the mud, which was hauled off In
wagons. Also, an effort was made to
drain the surface water from the
curbs, but with poor success, as the
drainage system is poorly constructed.
Although the work today has made
the stench on Main and Court streets
more offensive than before the clean
Ing will be of benefit, as otherwise
the slime In the gutters would have
soon become unbearable.
