the existing circumstances. A few
months ngo Thomas D. Davles, John
T. Williams and Thomas Lewis took
some steps to mitigate the evil by grad
ing and fllllntr the court which runs
In the rear of their properties facing
Eynon street. The water by recent
rains, melting of snow nnd natural
drainage has, however, overflowed the
alley level and many of the houses have
Hooded cellars and other minor dlltl
cultlcs to contend with.
One remedy has been suggested, but
as always Is the case one or two llgur-
Ing on a fulse economy basis refuse to I
snare tne rensonnuie expense m cur
rying the suggestion out. Mr. Lewis
proposed to lay a Bmall drain from the
pool through to Eynor. street. Mr. Wil

the drain to be carried across his prem
ises, thus giving a good grnds and
considerably lessening the cost of pipe.

refuse to act nnd the neighborhood Is
being scoured for ashes, dirt, etc., to
bank off the water, which Increases
every day In volume.
