Surveyor R W Jones finds property east of the Dispatch office extends fifteen inches over the street line while staking Josephson lot corners.

If earth is cut under overhanging structures, wooden buildings could collapse. city gains may offset owner losses. Hood's Sarsaparilla advertisement notes relief for sores humors pimples.
