Bismark, the glass eater and old man Wright, as he is known, are causiig Marshal Butler all kinds of trouble just now and it is a problem what to do with them.

STOPPED DIGGING Marshal Butler Stops Men From Digging Sewer NEAR NUTTMAN AVE. They Were Digging Ditch to Monroe Street - Sewer This morning Marshal Butler was ordered by the city attorney to stop the work of a number of men in the employ of Junus Haugk who it was reported were digging a ditch-4rom the site upon which the Indiana Lighting company gas tank is being erected to the Monroe street sewer. The land upon which the tank is being built was assessed for the Marshal street sewer and resultant to a complaint from a resident who is financially interested in the Monroe street sewer the officer was notified to stop the work of the men. This he did and it developed afterward that Haugk's .men were not digging a ditch to the sewer, but were onlyfurnishing means for the carrying away of surface water which was retarding their work. The Monroe street sewer is not sufficiently large to accommodate more people than -are really entitled to the service, hence the action of this morning. No trouble whatever was encountered by the marshal, as his orders were irpI mediately obeyed. o DEATH VISITS HOME (Continued from page 1.) a great loss has been rendered the county. His activity in every department of business and social life will be sadly missed by those with whom he has been affiliated. The bereaved ones can only find consolation in the remembrance of the many good and noble deeds of the departed man* l Their sorrow is shared by innumer-, able friends.
