a trustee can protect himself is by

to the f act th at dead chickens and other-oifat-is being dumped in an old quarryn College Hill and the citizens of that locality are compelled to breathe the stench arising from that hole, v If -the authorities can't stop it,the citizens about there propose-to take the matter in their t war hands. v- ; It rained harder between 8 and 5 o'clock last Sunday morning, and more water fell during that time than .was probably ever before known to fall, in the same length of time in this part of the country. The freshet which followed was very darning along all the streams, big and little, in the county. What is known as Spanker's branch," in this city, was higher than it was ever kno war to bebefore. At. Third street, the openings under the stone
bridge: were not large enough to
carry off the water fast uougb, consequently it backed up ove the
street and poper ad joining and I
did much damage. It was a poor
piece of calculation on the p Art of
those who planned the bridge, and
may get the city into trouble in the way of damage suits. We give below such items concerning the re
sult of the flood as were brought to
our notice :
The family of Mr. Nabb, who
lived in a cottage belonging to- the1
John Orchard estate, a1- the Third
bridge, , probably suffered the great
est loss in the way of damage to
furniture. ' The water was up to the fence in front of the house and the
family escaped about 4 o'clock in'
the morning by taking hold of each others hands and wading out, nearly waist deedi They had a fine,etf brussels carpet ruined!, and many other things were badly damaged.
They took refuge in the house of
Bud. Stout,, where they will be cared1
for iintil they .can find! other premises. The house of Luther Clay,
next door West, was also reached
by the water and all, his carpets
damaged; " The house of William
Griify, next, to Clay's was also
reached and some (iamage done
there.
