Two Sewer Ordinances Passed By City Commission
The city commissioners last night enacted two ordinances to build lateral sewers. One starts at Twenty Second Street below Ohio and Tennessee, then runs south mid between those streets. The other begins on the north half of lot four, block ten, Babcock's Addition, goes north to Fifteenth Street, then east to the main sewer on Massachusetts Street. Discussion on Sixteenth Street west of Indiana Street will continue. Residents claim parking extends to the curb. the gas company seeks permission to lay lines along the street parking and no action was taken. Also, a still alarm to a university law building proved unfounded after an inspection by Chief Reinisch. Elmer Rhodes, wanted for a recent drunken driving charge, was arrested in Lawrence, pleaded not guilty, and posted a $50 bond for Friday court. W. C. T. U. Bazaar and Food Sale set for Olson Brothers, Friday and Saturday, November 15-16.
