H A TO &I3IOT DC ; U I IL58IV I fit- . lift Z tJ If I If W I w DRIVEN OUT, IS THE VERDICT Part of Clean-Up Campaign Includes Waging War on Rodents that Cause Heavy Losses. One of the features of the "Clean Up" campaign that will he launched here the first week in May will be the drive against his ratship over the city with the intention of mak ing the pest of rats unknown in the community. The public has suffered a great deal from the depredations of the rats and especially in the business section of the city where the rhodents are grown to good size and are evidently of the sewer va riety. One of the spots that has flourish ed as a breeding place of the annoy ing animals is the old Gem theatre building on Main street, where it is reported the rats maintain their headquarters and from there have spread into the other buildings along the street. It is thought that the plans will call for prizes for the largest num ber of rats exterminated and a en-j eral effort be made to wipe out the pests. i A number of the residents nearj the mouth of the sewer on Washing-! ton avenue report that the sewer i ruts that infest that portion of the city can be seen racing back and forth from.-tbe" ef &wotibJ to- tiie i adjacent residences and with the re suit that the pest has become very annoying. In a number of the busi ness houses the rats have made their way from the sewer into the cellars and from there have carried on their depredations. A concerted drive on the rats should result in their being practically wiped out and the motto for the next few weeks will be "Get a Rat."

Trim Tutsnay-'B Ia!iy The Burlington shops in this city are now receiving some additions that will go far toward making the shops neat and right up to the min ute in the facilities for getting out work as well as in protecting the company property from the wash of heavy rain. To care for the wast wa ter that sometimes overflows the ditches in the shop yards, the com pany is placing a line of large con crete tubular sewers that will be ample to Randle the water and in addition to the present system will tare for twice the present amount of water flowing through the yards. The work of making the excavations for the sewers will start at once and will continue until all is in readi ngs for .the laying of the large sew er pipes that will be handled by cranes as they weigh five tons each and are the most durable and mod ern sewerage pipe made. The cot of the sewerage system will be at least $13,000 and will when completed make -tho Plattsmouth shop yards tafe from any overflow of water. In addition to the sewerage the company is having the plans made for the erection of a large 150 foot concrete smokestack that will be placed at the present power plant of tbe TOmpany to care for an enlarge ment of the power plant if it fhall he decided upon. A large 250 horse power water tubular boiler will be placed at once in the shops to add power to the plant there and which is one of the most modern boilers that can be secured. The new boiler will be arranged so that desired oth er unit of the power plants can be added and when completed it will be one of the most modern in any shop of the company and will have stok ers and patented ash conveyors that will lesson the Manor -and. roaka more convenient the 'handling of the busi ness of the company. WILL IMPROVE THE BASE BALL PARK AT ONCE If Work is Completed in Time Game will be Scheduled for Sunday to Provide Work-Out. Manager J. F. Wolff is planning to have the base ball park placed in first class condition as far as the diamond and grounds are concerned and will have some work done at once toward making the ground less likely to overflow from the rains and to eliminate the water standing on tlie diamond after each rain. As the grounds are at present, af ter the rains the water stands for days in the hollows near first, second and third base and while the other portions of the diamond are easy to dry out. these spots remain wet for some time. It is the expectation that the diamond will be made in the turtle-back form to give the height at the pitcher's box and the drainage to the sides of the diamond will tend to eliminate the condition of waste water standing on the grounds. If the work on the grounds can be completed in time and the soil get settled, it is thought that the team will play a tryout game next Sun day to get warmed up for the coming season. The definite line-up of the team has not been decided on as yet and all the players on the squad will be given full opportunity to show their metal before the opening of the season.
