A LANDMARK.The Stone Watering Troufifti on Bro«fi!1Street to fee Bemoved-tfdnClV,elt;dnThe old 'btone watering trough on Broad street at the north kide oi the park, which for twenty-live years h«s furnished water for thirsty horsee and dogs, is soon to be removed. It is one of the old landmarks of the town, but It has served its time and worn by long usage is now in a somewhat dilapidated condition and certainly adds nothing to, the appearance of Broad street or ljja*5 park. The council has, therefore, decided to replace the old trough with one of new and improved style.It will be constructed of^iron and will be neat and attractive in appearance It will have a basin at a height of about four feet from the ground, from which horses can drink with ease and comfort, while on the ground beloar will be a trough at which the canine tribe #ill drink.One of these drinking fountains has been m use in Oberlin for three years and gives perfect satisfaction, never having frozen up m the winter time or given any trouble whatever.The stone trough on East Bridge street near the mill is also in bad condition, keeping the ground around it continually -flooded. Tt is probable that if the trough to be placed on Broad sfaresfc proves natis Factory, another one will be purchas- j ed for Bast Bridge street. | ii.: eio:f*btifi#slt;tlIfCBljl6P;irciitaeiti
